A first… A Dream Academy Poem.

 

How frustrated you made me feel Professional life coach Alastair Hill Backed into a corner and thinking what the hell!
Week one of coaching for me, didn’t go well.

Lots of questions from you and not from me
Made me feel if I am honest completely giddy

Sorting my head mess is no easy task
Question after question for an hour you ask
Counselling, mentoring I have done it all
Feeling no better and hitting a wall

Who am I ? Where am I? What do I know?
Professional Life coach Al let’s give it ago.
Looking to the future you steered me away from my past
Learning to be a bit happier to maybe smile at last.

Actions are listed and goals are set.
Easy to follow and in very small steps
Nervous in the beginning and wanting to leave Al and his softly spoken voice put me at ease
Looking to the future thanks to Al and his plan
What can I say but thank you, you really are an amazing man

The Dream Academy is a brilliant scheme
Short term goals for a lifelong dream
This would not work without Al’s dedication
Alastair Hill you truly are an inspiration.
