Hello there, this is Ajit Nawalkha,
and today we are discussing life coaching questions
that you can use as a life coach or a business coach
to make more money.
All of us have a desire
to generate more abundance in our life.
We want to be able to make more money.
We want to be able to live the life that we wanted to.
We always want to be able to feel abundant
and feel like that we can invest
in whatever we want to invest in
and get things that we really want to get
for ourselves and our families.
But for one reason or another,
we find ourselves stuck in this rut
of not being able to find how to make more money.
And most of the time,
what we tend to think about is we don't make more money
because of this or because of that.
Well, today,
I'm going to guide you through some powerful questions
that you can ask yourself
as a life coach, as a business coach
that will help you create more money in your life.
It will shift the way you approach money as a coach
and give you the abundance mindset that will allow you
to manifest a lot more money in your life.
The first question is, what do I think about money?
A lot of us have never really sat down
and really evaluated as to, what is our belief about money?
What is the job of money?
What does money do in our lives?
Or what is the function of money?
How does money operate?
How do we think about how many operates?
And because of that, most of the time, we just simply go,
"I need more money, I need more money, I need more money."
We never really stop and ask, "Hey,
what is it that I even want this money for?
What is the job of this money?
How does money work in my reality?
Most of our money beliefs were implanted in us
on dinner conversations
and conversations we overheard as kids.
If our parents talked a lot about money or lack of it,
you would find that you may be carrying those beliefs
in your mindset and in your body.
And because of that, even if you have the capability
of generating a lot more income,
you may resist that capability.
And because of this,
it's important to diagnose and come up with,
what is your belief system about money,
or what is it that you really truly know about money
so you at least have an awareness
towards how you operate when money is around
and when money's not around?
It is important to question,
as life coaches, as business coaches,
for our own beliefs on how money shows up in our lives.
What is it that is our beliefs around our money mindset,
around our abundance mindset?
This is also a very important coaching question
for your clients
who may be finding themselves blocked around money
to bring the awareness towards what is it
that they believe and understand about money.
The second question is,
why is it that I am not making more money?
You see, when you ask that question to yourself,
most of us would go in and start blaming things, right?
We will start to say, "Oh, I'm not making money because of...
Hey, the strategy is wrong.
Facebook algorithm changed or Instagram algorithm changed.
I can't really do TikTok
because I don't have access to clients.
I'm in the wrong country, I'm in the wrong setup.
I need more training."
There is something or the other
that we constantly come up with
because we think that making more money
has everything to do with what's outside of us.
If there's one thing I've learned about money is,
not making enough money is directly related
to how we show up as,
and it has very little to do with what's the strategy
or what's the playbook,
or what do people say you should be doing
to be making more money.
The step-by-step approach of saying,
"All right, you do follow these 21 steps;
and if you do that, you will make more money,"
almost exclusively always fails.
And I can say that for certain
is because every single time
somebody else told me a strategy to make money, and I said,
"hey, listen, that doesn't feel in alignment with me.
I'm going to go to this, which is counter to popular belief,
is counter to what people may say I should be doing,"
I've found a lot more financial success in those activities.
So very frequently I found that strategies, tactics,
and ideas or world's influence around my abundance
is very little.
That abundance about how I approach things.
What is my inner story of why I'm not making enough money
is why I'm really making or not making enough money.
So my question, my wonder, my thought
for you as a life coach, as a business coach
who will be helping people with financial abundance
and money abundance is,
why is it that you're not making more money?
And don't blame it on something else.
Ask yourself, why is it that I am not making more money?
What it will reveal to you is things that are within you,
things and narratives that are within you,
that are stopping you to be able to make more money.
It could be your confidence.
It could be your capability to take risk.
It could be the way you think about money.
It could be the way you think about clients.
It could be the way you think about your coaching.
It could be one of many things, but as a life coach,
it's important for you to explore the idea
on why is it that you're not making money
or not making as much money that you would like.
And ask this coaching question to your clients as well,
because the more they explore that,
the more they will find the blocks that are stopping them
to be able to create that abundance in their life.
A great exercise to do when you're asking this question
is to journal on this question,
is to take a piece of paper and start writing.
Just start writing free flow
as to why do you think you're not making money.
Why is it that you're not making the amount of money
that you would like to make?
And once you start journaling around that idea,
you'll find that in the starting,
you might see things that are very superficial
and that's fine.
But as you go deeper and deeper,
when you go to page two or page three of your journaling,
you'll find that you finally are getting to the meat of it.
So ask yourself this question as a life or business coach
and to your clients as a coaching question
as to why are they not making the money
that they desire to make.
The third question.
Who do I need to be or act like
for me to be able to manifest this abundance
or manifest this money?
The reason why this question is so important
is because we are always upgrading ourselves.
We are always constantly growing as individual
consciously or unconsciously.
We are always developing ourselves in one way or another.
Sometimes this growth is a negative growth
where we start to take on beliefs
and start creating these beliefs
that break up negative patterns,
or it's a positive growth where you are taking these beliefs
and identifying what is it that you need to learn
about what is it that you need to grow into
as an individual
so you are creating the momentum towards your dream life,
towards your abundance, towards your money fulfillment
that you've always wanted for yourself.
So ask yourself this question,
who do I need to become as a life coach,
who do I need to become as a coach,
who do I need to become as a person
so I could bring the abundance in my life
that I've always wanted?
And then make a list.
Make a list of ideas, thoughts, and upgrades
that you want to create in your life
So you are constantly developing yourself
to become more and more in alignment
with who you see as the person
that would have that abundance, that money
that they always wanted in their life.
As you ask this question to your coaching clients as well,
you will find that they will discover certain upgrades
that you can really help them with.
It's a great nifty little way of really identifying
what is it that your client may need
for them to be able to have that financial abundance,
and be their guide, be their coach,
to be able to develop those capabilities
so they can have a more upgraded life
and live a life in fulfillment
and alignment with their money goals?
You can do the same for yourself.
Identify the coaches
that can help you constantly upgrade in the direction
that will help you live a more fulfilled life
or a more aligned life
with the amount of money that you would like to have
and abundance you would like to have for yourself.

Fourth question, am I open to receiving?
How do I respond
when somebody is trying to give me something?
You see, one of the big blockers that happens
in our lives as coaches
is because we are so good at giving
because we want to contribute
and we love contributing so much,
we never really train our muscle to receive.
Which means when somebody offers us something,
even a nifty little thing like a compliment
about how great you are as a coach, we shrug it away.
Somebody says, "Hey, you're a phenomenal coach.
You're a phenomenal life coach.
You're a phenomenal business coach.
You're just a phenomenal coach."
We receive it and say, "Thank you." and then we move on.
We don't really receive it,
because we are so good at giving.
And it's so easy for us to give it,
we forget that to have the money that we want,
to have the abundance that we want,
we must be willing to receive.
You must be willing to say,
"Yeah, absolutely; I am amazing, thank you.
I appreciate that, I embody that."
And this ability to be able to receive
allows the universe, your clients
to offer you abundance a lot more easily,
because they know that you are ready.
You are ready to receive this abundance in your life.
You're ready to receive this money in your life.
So ask yourself this very fundamental,
but very important question is, how do you receive things?
Are you open to receiving?
Because that may be one of the reasons
why you're actually not receiving,
even if people are willing to offer you the amount of money
that you would really, really want.
So ask yourself this question
and encourage your clients to question this as well.
As a life coach, it's important that we work
on the receiving mindset of our clients,
because if they can't receive,
they won't be able to receive love.
They won't be able to receive acceptance.
They won't be able to receive,
of course, money and abundance.
So receiving is as important as our desire to contribute.
As human beings, we tend to,
especially with our programming and all that fun stuff,
we tend to not want to receive; we find hesitance.
We get uncomfortable
when somebody's offering something to us.
When I unlocked my capability to receive, I realized
that a lot of things that I don't even have in my vision,
I don't even have in my peripheral vision,
my goals in that moment start to come to me.
I started to receive them
even when I was least expecting them.
So being able to receive,
being open to receiving can unlock a huge potential
that right now is just sitting under the surface for you.
So ask yourself that question as a coach.
Am I open to receiving?
How do I respond when I'm receiving something?
Which will unlock
if you're really open to receiving or not.
The fifth question is,
do I clearly know how much I want to make?
Do you know exactly how much money you would like to make?
And I use settling for an amount
because it feels a little bit more comfortable.
The reason why I ask this question
is because this is what I found.
Firstly, most people don't put a clear number
or a clear goal in their mind and saying,
hey, this is the amount of money I want to make this year.
They're always just chasing.
So that means,
oh, if I'm making X thousand dollars right now,
I just want to make X plus 10,000, right?
I want to make just a little bit more
from what I was doing yesterday.
They don't have a clear number.
As a life coach, you must already know at this point,
as a business coach also,
you must clearly know at this point,
is specificity and clarity of vision
is one of the biggest drivers of action.
Because you know exactly where you want to go,
universe paves the path for you.
Your mind paves the path
because it finds the fastest route to get to that point.
So ask yourself the question of,
do I clearly know where I want to go?
What is the number I am chasing?
Not just a number that is there
and then the next day there is a different number, no
You want a sense of clarity towards it.
Write down right now
where is it that you would like to be, say end of 2022,
end of 2021, end of next year, next to the next year.
It doesn't matter, but put a clear number on a clear date
so you know what you're chasing instead of just saying,
I would like to have more money.
Because more money can also mean making $10 more
than what you made yesterday.
It won't really satisfy your desires,
but it will be more money.
So ask a clearer, more specific question
in a more specific timeline
so your mind can work towards meeting that goal
and the universe can work towards meeting that goal.
And once you've put that goal,
I don't want you to settle, because here's one more thing
that I found with life coaches especially.
Again, with our whole mindset around,
how much money can a life coach make
and how much money can a life coach not make?
And coaching is a tough profession.
Coaching is an easy profession.
All these stories that people tell us,
we tend to put up a goal where we are settling.
You're settling for how much you can actually make.
And that settling looks like,
"I would love to make 100,000 a year,
but if I can get like 50,000, I'll be good," right?
Something that is a negotiation within your own body,
within your own soul.
And when you're settling for a number
that is less than your actual desire,
you are compromising the possibility of your own abundance
because you are negotiating
even when the universe is saying,
whatever you want to create, I can help you create, right?
And even your mind knows how to create that abundance,
that money for you, but you are settling.
So the mind kind of constantly switching gears and going,
"Hey, where do I go; you want 100,000, you want 50,000?
Because the plan is going to look different, right?
The actions are going to look different.
The consequences are going to look different.
Your life is going to look different.
Your activity levels will look different.
So ask a specific question and ask yourself.
Do not negotiate.
Don't negotiate with yourself, don't settle for any reason.
Keep chasing what's the right number for you
and whatever feels right for you,
and give yourself a timeline and give it enough time
so your mind and your body and your soul
can really figure out how to get to that number.
As a life coach, you must know at this point
that creating abundance, creating anything in your life
is really a function of consistency and clarity
and focus towards the direction.
And because of that,
if you don't bring your attention towards your money goals,
your abundance goals, there is no reason to believe
that you will actually fulfill
your money and abundance goals.
So these five questions should unlock one thing or the other
about your abundance mindset, about your financial mindset
and should give you some directive
towards how to create more abundance for yourself
as a life coach, as a business coach,
and also to create more money for your clients.
So go ahead and use these questions
to be able to manifest and create more money for yourself.
So let me share with you five coaching questions
that will help you make more money as a life coach,
as a business coach, or as a coach.
Question number one: what do I believe about money?
Question number two: why am I not making more money?
Question number three: who do I need to become or act like
to make the kind of money that I want to make?
Question number four: am I open to receiving?
How do I respond when somebody's offering me something?
How do I respond to receiving a compliment or money?
Question number five:
do I clearly know how much I want to make?
Am I settling or am I expanding?
With these five questions,
you would have unlocked your money mindset
and your abundance,
which should help you make a lot more money
than you're making today.
