The aim of the paper is to discuss methods of finding inner motivation that allows the coach, who has constant access to his/her resources, to support the coachee in the process of attaining the set goal. Authors have recourse to a metaphor: the coaching process is compared to a journey between the coachee’s current place and the place he/she wishes to reach, i.e. the goal of the coaching process. Furthermore, the word “journey” refers to the etymology of the word motivation – movere (to move).
