What Is Thought Coaching?
Thought coaching is the process of becoming increasingly aware and accepting of our thoughts. A thought is a thought — it may or may not be true. Most of us treat every thought we have as fact. Understanding this makes room for more empowering thoughts we can choose to act on.
Scott's approach is built on three steps: Awareness (surfacing unconscious thought patterns), Acceptance (removing the power of negative thoughts without fighting them), and Automatic Improvement (better decisions and leadership emerge naturally).
