If you want to live a meaningful, joyful and satisfying life you have to learn to work harder on yourself (much more than you do on your job!). This is why personal development is the most challenging task of all: it lasts a lifetime. The same as a seed needs water to grow into a plant, people need personal development to grow as human beings. And to grow you need to learn. How much time in your life have you spent learning how to improve your character and your relations with others?
We are all products of early formative experiences within the family, at school, etc. which collaborate to shape us as adults but we still have the power to soften the parts of our character we don’t appreciate much and we have the responsibility over our life. Of course you could blame many people for your unhappiness but remember, nobody is ever responsible for your unhappiness but you. This is because you always get to choose how you see things and how you react to them. So we are responsible even for the experiences that are not our fault. That’s life. And this is why personal development should never stop.
But how does personal development work? In its core, it’s about investing time in introspection (knowing yourself) and personal growth empowering you to manage yourself effectively regardless of what life might bring upon your way. It is a way for you to assess skills and qualities, consider your aims in life and set goals in order to realize and maximize your potential.
If you think that you don’t have to work on yourself, then you definitely do need to! And if you think you do, does that mean you are not good enough? On the contrary. Only the best people in the world keep working on themselves all the time. The most we can do in life is to grow up to become the best version of ourselves and to act with authenticity and integrity in any given moment.
