Humor and coaching?

"I started on clarinet what is closest to the English "
Raymond Devos


" The word love is hard to combine: his past is not simple, present only indicative and future is always conditional. "
Jean Cocteau

Is there humor in the land of" Saudade "without sounding rude or provocative? Are we required to be single block, single identity, single jurisdiction? Must we choose between being funny and being serious? Is there not a place where everything is mixed and becomes surprising? Operating ?

To each his answer. For my part, I chose to combine all the time, every tone, every place, tears to laughter, the depth to the lightness of body images, the rigor of fantasy, philosophy to comics. Why choose to so much wealth and opportunity?

When a client comes to see a coach, he expects him something new, something that has not already tried, since there is no purpose to repeat which no longer works. This is not an easy decision nor comfortable but to turn to others. In itself, yet it is the first innovation (the day or "never" becomes "why not?"). That the decision to move to the center of his choices, take responsibility for its importance, stop time to observe his world a little further and look to see if it recognizes itself in all this (and this is the second step!). Of course, you feel pain to be powerless and yet desiring to make the observation that some wounds are still painful and they wake up when and where we do not want. There is really no laughing matter ... Exactly.

Humor is a way to provide for the unexpected, imagination, offset, cropping, another space, a new breathing, ACTION. Laughter is back in the present, living, feeling the joy of it all. Of course, it is to recognize that wounds and yet his intensity, but we do not mean more pressure to get sucked by the registry of the complaint takes us to the land we know so well and, because of this, at least comfort us that we control their sad song, one that legitimizes our inaction . The complaint is that! She takes our breath away and leaves us exhausted. So, what a slap sympathetic humor that makes us consider our own helplessness as a mockery against all that we offer our lives, everything that we are still possible.

" By his sovereign contempt for the limits of logic and rationality, the joke may shatter the images of the world and become the change agent " Paul Watzlawick.

Laughter is sit back to watch as a spectator of his own life, take the momentum to throw in that we want. And here we are at heights that exhilarate us, the move away from painful situations for being smaller than their place in our past ... exceeded. Laughter is a sudden feeling of other features, a face that changes and finally we please, rediscover the joy, desire and energy is to break that imprisons us. Laughter between chemistry and magic, why not?

Nothing to do with making fun of the other or oneself. Is to remember that we are only men trapped in the stories they tell about themselves. We have the means to tell us more stories, those that bypass our rational when it serves us (without delight!). These stories make us enter new in a world to explore where our memories take many forms and more comfortable pushing us towards a future of joy. We lose nothing of that to which we want to go, whatever the seriousness of our purpose. Instead, we gain energy and lightness.

In Coaching, is seriously in the workplace that are asked and the authenticity, honesty with which we advance in the relationship. Once this is secured, while humor can take its place as a powerful lever for change. Not to be overlooked is much more fun!
