Self-Coaching: Struggle

a railing next to a staircase

Not all coaching questions have answers. There are topics I’ll struggle with for the rest of my life, and never find a clear answer. Thinking about these questions, finding the answer I can live with for the moment will just be part of living. I am sure that’s true for most people.  Our lives are part of massive complex systems we’ll never fully understand; that means that there are questions that simple can’t be neatly resolved.

For me these kinds of unanswerable questions can be personal or spiritual. They run from the minor, like finding a balance between the necessities of being humble and being self-confident, to the major, like deciding how I can be the most useful to the world. Or when do I sit down and when do I fight?

What questions will you never find an answer to?
