Love the video, thanks! I have summarized the questions as I find it helpful to write things down (not meant as a replacement fir watching the video, but as an executive summary:)
1. If you knew you couldn't fail, what would you do?
2. How will achieving this goal help you and others around you?
3. What happens if you didn't achieve your goal?
4. What is the smallest first step you can take right now to make progress towards your goals?
5. By saying YES to this, what are you saying NO to?
6. What is really important to you?
7. What are you focusing on today?
Thank you for the summary, Miriam! We're sure it'll be useful for other viewers as well ;) ❤
you are such an inspiring coach! 2 years old is this video, yet the message is as important as ever.
Thanks for all your work.
Thanks so much, Shawnathan ❤
Hi Ajit wonderful session I really took notice of the aspects you talked about.
Very useful tools! Thank you!
"What happens if you don't achieve this goal?" is also a good question to spot fake goals, that people are not actually motivated and drawn to (things that you THINK are your goals, but you really couldn't care less about it)
Such a great question, Mihaela! Definitely ❤
I ask my clients what is important to them all the time. Its important especially when deciding how to structure the amount of time you'll spend on certain things in your business.
Hi Justin! Appreciate your comment
Great questions! I especially liked the reminder that there is a clear distinction between pondering the past to get useful info versus processing the past, which might be too time-consuming, and might take time away from future-oriented questions.
Spot on, Tania! Thanks for sharing ❤
These questions are very helpful thank u. The one thing that I learned is to only ask open ended questions to help the client really think and continue to talk 70% of the time. So why questions should not be asked because they can be answered with 1 word.
I am so happy I found your channel. I am new to coaching and really appreciate the effort of sharing these insights.
Welcome to the community, Kurt! We're so happy to be able to contribute to your journey. ❤❤❤
Indeed, these are great questions to break the blocks in client’s mind! Thank you Ajit!
So glad you found this valuable, Aracely! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Such great questions, definitely going to be incorporating these.
Glad you found this valuable, Chireze! Thanks for sharing
Great video! Thank you for sharing these wonderful ideas!
So glad they were valuable! Thanks for sharing ❤
Loved the questions and more the emotions you show while asking. Great learning whcih is why I am a mindvalley and evercoach annual member 😊
We're grateful to have you ❤❤
Very first thing I learned in my life coaching course was never use the word "Why".. The client might feel judged / attacked for the way they think or lived their life thus far... Example "Why do you think that?" vs, "What makes you think that?"...
Great way to practice non-judgment! Thanks for sharing, Roseanne ❤
I really like this guy! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 Thank you for the valuable tips!
Thank you so much! We appreciate you ❤❤
Thanks Ajit. Powerful questions to ask to myself and coachees. Those bring deep awareness to self being, goal, and actions. Awesome!
Glad you enjoyed it, Vanda! ❤
These are amazing questions! thank you for sharing. Some others I have heard that I thought were really good is asking what their love languages are, asking how they would like me to hold them accountable, and asking what their learning styles are
Yes! Those are fantastic too, especially understanding their love languages. We ❤ that! Thanks for sharing, Syndey

Wonderful
Thank you, Judd! ❤️
Very Informative!
We're thrilled it was! Thanks for sharing 💜
Love your perspective, Ajit! You truly are a value add to the coach community. 🤗 A powerful question I like to ask is: What can I/you celebrate about myself/yourself today? I find this useful because we are often too focused on the parts of ourselves we want to improve and it’s nice to shift our attention to ALL the things about us which we can celebrate right now.
That's a truly powerful and positive question, Nikita! Thanks for sharing ❤
Great questions thank you!!
Thanks for sharing, Blue! ❤
@@mindvalleycoach 💖🙏🌈
Great questions. I’m a coach in training and that was very helpful. Thank you
We're so glad it was! Thanks for sharing 💜
Thank you! How about balancing out with best questions related to the past?
Hi there! If you're asking for powerful questions about the past, this video might be what you're looking for: ruclips.net/video/lqo49LLbfVo/видео.html.
Great questions Ajit.
Thank you for sharing, Myriam ❤
Hey, I’m not a Coach, however I am on the Journey to discover my Gift… Your video is verification to me that I’m on the right path… Thanks
Amazing! We're so happy it helped in some way ❤ Thanks for sharing
I just asked a client what a quick step they could take rate now is.
So awesome ❤
Very Good questions!💪💪💪 I am planning to Side Hustle as a coach soon
I like question nr1 and 7 especially👍
@@fredrikscoaching9343 Great questions indeed! Excited for your coaching journey, we're so happy to be able to contribute. Thanks for sharing ❤
Ajilt this questions I think they are not powerful for life coaching or business caoching only. This questions are powerful questions for self coaching, self actualization toward future, for goal settings and achieving those goals...
I feel there is a lot.... very transceny ☺️☺️
So true, Velenkosini! These can definitely be applied across all niches ;) ❤
Great questions! This questions a coach himself/herself if he/she is a good coach or great coach! :D
So glad you liked them! Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow, I love these 7 questions. Would you be able to show more real coaching conversations with coachees that demonstrate the application of the questions?
Great question, Mounyee! Here's our playlist of coaching demonstrations by renowned master coaches (and Evercoach authors!), such as Christine Hassler, Rich Litvin, Margaret Moore, etc. It's a great way of watching coaching in action and identifying the different powerful questions and tools they use with clients. We hope you enjoy them: ruclips.net/p/PLLz6vjpxFbXjbUJ9ZgZXpmjgWmqXzWNEJ ❤
@@mindvalleycoach where is the playlist? Thank you
@@cweissy90 Oops! Great catch. Here it is: ruclips.net/p/PLLz6vjpxFbXjbUJ9ZgZXpmjgWmqXzWNEJ. Thanks for spotting it and hope you enjoy ❤
@@mindvalleycoach Thank you and for your fantastic videos and teachings
@@cweissy90 Thank you so much! We appreciate you ❤❤❤
Fear n stupidity are two different things. To not have any fear is insane but more importantly depending on the situation. Is stupidity
some overwhelmed clients need also help to verbalise the thoughts by suggesting sentences with blanks :)
That's a great tool! Thanks for sharing ❤
Wonderful points which can bring Aha movements
Which was your favorite?
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it ❤
My go-to question; what will the implications be if you don't take action before you go to bed tonight?
Oooohh juicy! Thanks for sharing, Lea ❤
💜💜💜💜
❤❤❤❤
Still waiting for the 21 questions 15 hours after. Instead I got 2 emails offers asking me to join the membership. Is the 21 questions real or a catch?
Hi CJ! Not a catch, it's a real (and free!) document. You should've gotten it immediately after signing up. Did you check your SPAM folder by any chance? If it's not there, please do contact our support team and they will share the 21 questions guide directly with you. You can send them an email to: support@evercoach.com. We apologize for the inconvenience! ❤
Should a person ever have to achieve anything by himself or herself and happy to thank no one but himself likewise Would you feel complete?
Hi Christopher! Could you please rephrase your question? So we can answer accordingly :) Thanks for asking!
The only question I need an answer to is "how do you get the clients?"...
Excellent questions, Copra! These are 2 videos that can give you some insights to answer that: ruclips.net/video/A2Rl9F6okdc/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/BohYRADFAmI/видео.html Thanks for asking ❤
what i don t understand is why put some fear ?
Great question, Mireille! Sometimes clients can have a great goal they want to achieve but don't take actions to make it happen. By bringing awareness to "what would happen if you don't achieve it", which means no progress, being stuck, it can bring them insights on why they want to achieve that goal in the first place and use that little bit of fear (realizing that things won't change) as drive and motivation to encourage action towards their goal. Does this make sense? :)
Great content...!! Acknowledging you’re putting out valuable content here to the public... “Killer” is not a word an NLP Coach would use in your context. 😂 Every word can be better, more carefully used. “Words have power over life an death.”
So glad you enjoyed this, Chris! And yes, we totally agree, "our words create our reality"! But we're making an exception for youtube purposes ;) Thanks for sharing ❤
1. If you knew you couldn't fail, what would you do?
2. How would achieving this goal impact you and those around you?
3. What would happen if you didn't acheive your goal?
4. What is the small step you can take right now towards achieving your goal?
5. By saying yes to this, what are you saying no to?
6. What is really important to you?
7. What are you focusing on today?
Great summary! Thanks for sharing 💜
When you have a client who lacks energy what do you do to keep yourself grounded and authentic?
Great question, Inge! It's crucial that we, as coaches, take care of ourselves and our own energy before, during, and after a coaching session, so we can be fully present during the session and also be able to "cut the cord" and detach after a session is over. For that, we recommend having a specific routine that works for you: meditation, mindfulness, stretching, breathwork, etc - whichever helps you best manage your energy so a client's negative or low energy doesn't drown you. You can also practice tools to help your client's energy rise and balance it out better. Here are some tools you might find interesting: ruclips.net/video/owqDWXdbGk4/видео.html. Thanks for sharing ❤
I ask my clients: "What is the most important question you ask to yourself each day?"
Great question, Rahul! Thanks for sharing ❤
My go to question is what's the real issue here?
Good one! Simple yet powerful ❤
What is life coach?
Great question, Wilburty! We suggest watching this video to clarify what life coaching is and what life coaches do: ruclips.net/video/lhehBbA4cHw/видео.html
What is holding you back?
Great choice, Lidia!
What's your go-to life coaching powerful question? Share it with us in the comments below! :)
No 👎
Er
What do you really want?
#1 is THE question
'How is that working for you?' seems to get them to reflect on a behavior that is not working. ' What could you try that might better allign with your values and move you toward your goals? ' is always the question I ask myself, but it requires already defining the client's core values and goals for it to work in a coaching context.
🤣🤣🤣
Amateurs teaching rookies what they think they should know while pic pocketing they wallets. Bruno Mars’s here isn’t teaching you anything that isn’t already in you.
That's a great observation and that's exactly what coaching does. Coaches don't tell people the answers, they help them find the answers within themselves. We already have all the information we need inside of us, we just sometimes need someone else to help us see it!
wonderful delivery, so user friendly easy and enjoyable! so simple, so wise
Glad you found this useful! Thanks for sharing 💜
