Personality Growth

We rely on our senses to interpret the world around us and this has served its purpose as the key to our survival. But as we grow farther from being dependent on what is physical around us - what we can see, hear, smell, taste, and touch - we must now grow ourselves from the very roots of our existence; from our souls. This internal growth is the key to what we call personal development.

What is Personal Development?

Personal development seeks to enhance our individuality whether it is to realize our own potential or to understand the true meaning of life. Thru personal development we aim to improve ourselves outside the confines of what our bodies are limited to and explore the world around us in such a way that it cultivates our souls.

The goals of personal development can vary from person to person but in the end it's all about attaining happiness and spiritual satisfaction.

You yourself might want self-improvement when it comes to learning new skills or exploring talent you've kept hidden for so long. Others seek something that is more abstract, something that touches on how they would see the world and how they would interpret everything around them without being influenced by the noise that pollutes their conscience.

But there is no limit to what you want to achieve. In fact personal development aims to release all restraints or any self-imposed limitations so you yourself can realize and maximize your true potential.

The Importance of Personal Development

Society has taught us to focus more on academic and career achievements as a solid foundation of our individuality. We end up going thru the cycles of life not as a human being but as a machine that lacks soft skills which are crucial to be truly successful and happy. This has caused plenty of emotional struggles which results to mental breakdowns and a variety of mental and psychological disorders.

It is unfortunate that many of us live their whole lives not knowing anything about themselves or what they could become if they tried a different approach at life. These people are afraid of walking the unfamiliar road as they fear the unknown.

This fear of the unknown is the very limitations that we put on ourselves which prohibits us from truly seeing what we are capable of as human beings. Yes, we can always improve ourselves thru strength training or eating the healthiest foods in the world but what is it to be perfectly healthy and strong on the outside but ultimately fragile and weak on the inside?

The importance of personal development is the self-realization of what you can become without following anyone's dogma. You may sometimes find yourself groping in the dark but darkness can be your friend since without darkness we would never have appreciated light.
