Personal Development"Identify your goals and ambitions in life." That's what Adam Price more or less says in his article below. He goes on to show how to do just that by answering the question, 'what is personal development?'. The development of self, and personal development growth fascinates most of us, at some point in our lives - whether at work, play or at home - and Adam does a good job of getting us to understand what this really means, and how it can be effected in our lives Okay, enough about Adam (for now) - what does this mean to you?
Personal DevelopmentPersonal development - what I say...Adam asks the question (several times) 'what is personal development?' and I believe he does a good job of answering it. Thanks, Adam. I'd really struggle to do the same! :-) Maybe personal improvement is about having a personal development plan (or finding some personal development training), using the right personal growth tools and then putting it all into action, or even understanding (and developing) your emotional intelligence - I don't know really! I'm not sure I'm that concerned about defining personal development, actually. But I guess it's as Adam says, "...the use of your strengths to meet your goals, and the improvement on your weaknesses so that you can be better as a person." or being the best me I can be. How about you? What is personal development for you? This YouTube video (voices out of synch, unfortunately) does a great job of answering, 'what is personal development?'. You even get to see real-life gurus explain it to you. Sweet.
Now it's Adam's turn... Move Ahead With Personal Development!Personal development - what Adam Price has to say...Have you ever wondered "What is personal development" exactly? If you have been to many personnel and human resources development seminars lately, and if you are in constant contact with co-workers who read self-help books and go to self-help seminars, then you might have encountered personal development. On one hand, when explained, personal development can sound like a whole lot of usual life lessons packaged into a sensationalized whole. On the other hand, personal development can sound like something worthwhile and encouraging to undertake - especially when work takes its toll on you and makes you feel more down and discouraged than ever. So: What is personal development? Personal development can be difficult to explain if you do not acknowledge your uniqueness first. Believe it or not, you are different from any person who has ever lived, and from any person who is to come. Genetics will tell you that unless you are part of a set of identical siblings, your DNA is different from any DNA that has existed or will ever exist. This should be enough to tell you that you are special! So, what makes you special? You have a combination of different factors that lend a definition to the real you: your educational background, your upbringing, the food you like to eat, the way you think, the way you reason, the language you speak, your culture, your likes and dislikes, your dreams and ambitions, your strategies for keeping money - all of these contribute to your personality. So, what is personal development, and how does all this relate to personal development? Personal development entails improving everything about you by completely knowing everything there is to know about you. First, you are a product of your upbringing. How you were raised in the womb, how you were raised as a child, how you were disciplined, what food you ate, all of these contribute to your personality. What is personal development? It is complete recognition of all these aspects of your childhood, and acceptance of the fact that such things cannot be changed. If you were disciplined using hurtful words or methods, you should not dwell on the past and instead use your discipline to improve your future. What is personal development as it relates to your childhood? It means letting go of the past, because it cannot be changed; it also means anticipating the future, because you can make it better. Personal development also entails identifying your goals and ambitions in life. What do you want to do in the next five years? What do you want to accomplish in the next ten years? What is personal development? It is identifying what you should prioritize in life, and what dreams you should run after. And what is personal development, further? It is the use of your strengths to meet your goals, and the improvement on your weaknesses so that you can be better as a person. What is personal development, completely? You can answer this question through many methods. You can have a personal development plan, which you can make on your own, or which your psychiatrist or therapist can assist you with. You can also join personal growth and development classes, where you can know yourself better and find ways to improve your life and reach your goals. So, what
is personal development? Personal development is simply knowing yourself completely,
from all your strengths and weaknesses, all your dreams and goals, and using all
these to fuel your life and lead you to greater heights. With complete personal
development, you can be sure of success not only in your career, but in many other
important aspects of your life as well. ---------------------------------------------------- Note: you can learn more about personal development plans here...
