In a role play in a teleclass where the client was describing wanting to move forward in the building of their coaching business and being stuck feeling ill prepared to do the marketing and selling, the coach made an analogy to driving a car with one foot on the accelerator and one foot on the brake and asked the client, “If you could only use one foot, which one would you choose to use now?”
This was such a powerful analogy that the client was able to immediately visualize what they were doing internally regarding the issue they were stuck in and how much energy it was costing them in trying to move forward with the brake on. They also immediately saw that what they were doing was their choice and they could choose now to do something different in order to move forward to their goal.
