How to Create a Personal Development Plan

April 1, 2019

What kind of life do you want to live? Have you ever thought about it? Is it detailed? Do you have a plan? Are you actively creating and designing it?

“Most people spend more time planning a one-week vacation than they spend planning their life.” – Michael Hyatt

It’s crazy to think about, but it’s true! I’ve realized I’ve been guilty of this even knowing this quote. Usually when we “plan” our lives we’ll write down all our goals or make a bucket list of things we want to accomplish or we’ll make a vision board or we’ll think about and daydream about the future we want to have. Or we just have no clue.

There is so much more to planning out our future than this. It’s called creating a personal development plan. Very few of us actually take the time to sit down and create and write out a specific and detailed personal development plan for our future selves and lives.

This guide will show and teach you the process for creating a personal development plan customized just for you. You will learn how to create a personal development plan to design your dream life.

I’ve even included a free printable worksheet you can download and use to create your personal development plan!

March 26, 2019

You might think that the first thing you have to do to get started with personal growth is to set goals. That’s not true. There’s a lot of deeper foundational work that’s important to do as well.

I’m sure you’ve witnessed or heard about high overachievers and people who are successful and seem to have everything going for them, but they’re still unfulfilled. They’re not happy. It’s never enough. They have all these accomplishments and yet, they’re miserable.

Not only that, but it seems that achievements and richness are valued more than personal happiness and fulfillment. You see memes that say, “I’d rather cry in a Ferrari than cry on a bus.” And the first question many people ask to get to know you is, “What do you do?”This article lists some ways you set yourself up for growth and continue to stimulate deep and lasting personal growth.

Everybody wants to feel happy and fulfilled with their life. There’s no question about that.

24 Lessons Learned in 24 Years

January 31, 2019

I turned 24 years old a few days ago. I thought it’d be a good idea to share 24 lessons I’ve learned in the 24 years of my life which I realized I’ve never really done before. Normally, I look back on the things I’ve learned on a yearly basis or after the end of life stages such as graduating high school or college, but not looking back on my life as a whole on the things I’ve learned like this.

I came up with this list by looking through my success journal over the year in which I would write a quote of the day and things I learned that day. I also looked through my notes in which I write down my thoughts and any wisdom I come across, and things that I learn. I’ve also included principles that I’ve written about throughout my blog.

Many of these lessons I learned from my personal experiences, others’ experiences, quotes, articles, and books I’ve read, movies and videos I’ve watched, and things I’ve observed and noticed.
Here are 24 of the life lessons and nuggets of wisdom I’ve learned over the last 24 years of my life. Enjoy!

The 3 Main Fundamentals for Personal Growth

January 18, 2019

It really doesn’t take much to get started with personal development. There are few required fundamentals for personal growth. You don’t need to have your life together (that’s kind of the point). Neither do you need to be super smart or outgoing. You don’t need to be motivated (which you shouldn’t rely on anyway). Heck, you don’t even have to believe in yourself or any of it to get started although you’ll probably have to eventually.

There are however three main fundamentals for personal growth to occur. Without these three things, personal growth is nearly impossible unless, of course, it involves realizing, accepting, and implementing these things into our lives.

If you are involved in personal growth, these things should naturally occur. The sooner you can use these fundamentals, the sooner and better you can start seeing personal growth in yourself and your life.
