Jedi Mind Tricks

The idea of coaching as a “Jedi Mind Trick” comes up frequently. 

Yoda shares many mindful coach-isms in disguise.

Coaching wisdom from Yoda:

“You will find only what you bring in.”

“Many of the truths that we cling to depend on our point of view.” 

“Named must your fear be before banish it you can.”

“Your path you must decide.” 

“You will know (the good from the bad) when you are calm, at peace.”

“Do not assume anything Obi-Wan. Clear your mind must be if you are to discover the real villains behind this plot.“ 

“To be Jedi is to face the truth, and choose. Give off light, or darkness, Padawan. Be a candle or the night.”
