Hi There
Who are The Thieves of your Personal Development – ask yourself that!
Nothing is worse than having a dream for yourself and entities getting in the way to keep you from it. The sad truth is those barriers to your dreams are usually self-created. Personal development is hindered by four main thieves operating on a daily basis within your life.
-
– Attitude
-
– Motivation
-
– Habits
-
– Time
Everything you do is a choice. With you choices is always an outcome. On another level, you could call it taking a personal responsibility for yourself. If your life isn’t flowing in the direction you wish, then perhaps it is time to dissect these four areas in a self-evaluation.
Attitude:
Accomplishing great things in your life is impossible if your thoughts and words are contrary to it. When you wake in the morning are you happy to have the new day? Has your mind closed down to the potential each day brings? Doing an attitude self-check is essential to personal growth.
Without maintenance on our attitude daily, it is near impossible to embrace opportunities which bring dreams closer to reality. If you take a good look around you, you will see people stuck on auto pilot, caught up in stoic repetition. An indifferent attitude is almost worse than a bad attitude. As you grow older, it becomes even more necessary to feed your mind, wash your belief systems and do daily maintenance checks on your attitude. Being unaware of poor thoughts is a poor excuse for not being able to reach out for your dreams. Attitude accountability is reaching out for resources and self-help tools purposely. By not doing so, this thief surely will steal your joy of self-discovery.
Motivation:
Simply put, motivation is having an “iron will”. If you do not mean to do something, you won’t. You might dance around thoughts of doing something while melting away on your couch, but until you actually initiate your will through actions, it is only fluff. The hard truth is you are the biggest poser in your own life if you have no motivation to accomplish a wanted dream or goal. No one said finding motivation would be easy either.
Every single person has or has had difficulties with motivation. It remains a number one challenge in personal development. There will always be the little voice inside you telling you to get motivated later. Until you make up your mind to exercise your will now, motivation will elude you, keeping it thief number two in personal growth.
Hi Tony Here
– what’s my WHY ?
Why am I doing this?
here it is guys
Having spent 40 years in publishing, working long hours in a stressful business environment, making substantial money for various business owners the time is now for me to make my own income channels outside of my 9 – 5 role.
I’m at a stage in my life where I want to create a substantial income for the coming years to supplement a near non existantent pension fund, and security for my wife and my 2 children.
I want time and money freedom to enjoy my family, travelling and getting involved in other activities.
I have witnessed first first hand the influence of the internet in our lives and in publishing especially– the future is clear – it’s online.
