Myth Busting: What Personal Development Is, And Is Not


Listen Later

On this week's episode of Scaling Life, I open up about what my commitment to personal development really means - and what it doesn't.

 

Episode Highlights:

 

I've called myself a personal development "junkie" for years, but that doesn't mean I'm on a quest for unattainable perfection.

 

My journey is about continuously learning, growing, and trying to understand myself better - not following rigid rules.

 

Some days it would be easier to avoid reflection and just blame others, but personal development is a commitment to asking myself hard questions.

 

It's being curious about my own thoughts, reactions, and limiting beliefs that were programmed in me as a child.

 

I used to think taking care of myself was selfish, but self-love actually makes me a better person.

 

Personal development is about embracing myself fully, taking responsibility for my own happiness, and living a meaningful life.

 

Quotes from Me:

 

"The more I dive into personal development, the more I understand all the small things that happened when I was young and how they actually affect me now."

 

"I realized I have all these things where I wasn't even allowing myself to try and change the category."

 

"The commitment to personal development is when I wake up feeling crappy, I ask myself what is this? What do I need?"

 

Listen to the full episode for more insights on why I'm committed to continuous growth, while also being patient and generous with myself.
