I also totally relate to the difficulty of helping clients who aren't motivated enough to act on what they learn. In those cases, finding a way to help them get motivated becomes the main focus.

This means that you can always go back to them and see where the problem lies. Have the trouble about being motivated is finding out why you aren't.

Asking clients questions such as these ones helps get to the core of the problem......difficult to coach/mentor when client lacks motivation. I also like to look at the 'inspirational' side of things....are the clients inspired? Motivation is the 'push'....inspiration is the 'pull'....toward the target. Thank you. be good to yourself David Thanks Jonathan,
