Personal Growth

This is not the time to give up on ourselves, our hopes, our dreams, and our goals in life. In fact, we should be putting our fullest attention into our personal growth.

What is Personal Growth?

Before I get into why I feel it is so important to take this time to work on ourselves, let me define what personal growth is, in my own terms.

Personal growth is, and should be, evolving all the time. Think about a young child and how they take in the world through curiosity, experiences, and love. They are constantly learning and growing emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually.

Moving through life, each child grows into their own unique personality. They form their own habits, beliefs and values. Each person transforms into who they are throughout their teen years and into their young adulthood.

As adults, we carry a lot of history with us: our choices in life, big and small; the relationships we develop; the work we do; and the children we raise. All of which gives us the tools and resources to continually grow.

We never stop growing. Initially, we become more aware of what is happening all around us. Finally, we are committed to our lives just as they are. In some cases, the commitment is too much, and we end up bailing on something that was once really important to us.

We sacrifice, we compromise, we take chances, or we don’t take chances.

Life is always changing and moving around us.

Introspection

The mistake we make as adults is that we stop being curious, and we stop exploring who we are and what truly drives our passions within.

The next thing you know, years have passed, and we wonder “how did I end up here?”

In short, this is the reason why so many people feel stuck or in a rut.

Personal growth gives us the ability to go deeper within ourselves. Likewise, it allows us to explore what makes us who we are. As a result, it helps us to rediscover what we want to do to become a better version of ourselves. We see things from a different perspective. Hence, we have self-awareness. Most importantly, we have a greater love for who we are and our uniqueness.

Even when we are in a time of uncertainty and don’t know what the future holds, one thing is for sure, we still can learn and grow. Right where we are today.

Right now, many of us have been granted time. Time for introspection. Ideally, we can understand how to take steps towards becoming the person we want to be. Some of us have been given the opportunity to spend time with our loved ones. Also, we have been given the opportunity to slow down and make sense of our heart’s desire. Moreover, we can allow ourselves to become curious again.

There is a very special place for all of us in this world. In fact, I believe that if we take the time to center ourselves, and really pay attention to what our instincts are telling us, we can take this opportunity to expand into a place of happiness and love. Ultimately, we can see that bright vision of our future.

A Better Tomorrow

What I am feeling right now, with so much negativity and harm in our world, is a low energy coming for all of us. Because, let’s face it, the energy of humanity has taken a hard hit. I feel it. Probably, you can too.

But what if we made it our priority right now to work on ourselves? Even more, what if we gave ourselves a much-needed break and started pulling in all the positive energy we can?

If we start to shift how we are using our time and energy, we can make a difference for ourselves, for our families, and for our communities.

This may seem like an impossible task to take on right now. Furthermore, motivation could be at an all time low. But with some guidance, support and encouragement, I know you can shift what you’re feeling today, into something that will bring you joy and excitement for a better tomorrow.

I want to extend to you a free 60-minute consultation. A simple and easy phone call can help you to see that you can spark your curiosity again.
