People worldwide are aware and are showing interest in practicing self development, which has no limits. The more you develop the more you will find the need to change yourself for your betterment and development. So, the process is never ending, but, the earlier you start with the process the more easy life would become and more progress you would be able to make.
The process of self development starts with the process of changing our inner self. Because, no matter how many books we read and how many lectures we hear, until and unless we start implementing them there is no use of all the accumulated knowledge. So, how do we go about it, let us check it out.
- First and foremost thing in self development is that you need to overcome resistance not from another person, but, from your own self. Because, all these years we have dumped ourselves with undesirable habits and routine and now when we find that there is need for change our previous habits that pull us down and which we need to overcome.
- We need to learn from our surroundings and the people we interact with. Nobody is perfect in this world and there is both negative and positive side. Take the positive traits and make a note of negative qualities. Check, if you have them and try to remove those qualities.
- Check your body language and pay attention to your voice modulation. Observe when and why people talk or behave in some way as they do and see the results. Observe your own self, the way you interact and what results it is yielding.
- The more you read and the more you gain knowledge, the more you will grow and increase your efforts towards self development, so, make it a part of your routine to read a book on self development or auto biographies of great leaders.
- Have a role model or a mentor. When you have someone to guide you to progress in life. Your path becomes easy because all you have to do is to follow what they say do.
If we lead life the same way as we are used to, without any progress and development, life loses its meaning. So, self development is something we all need to think about and focus on.
