This is Kelly Orchard’s Apple A Day. Sixty Seconds on wisdom, success and personal growth.  

What we learn becomes part of who we are. Who do you want to be? I often encourage my clients to look themselves in the mirror and ask themselves ‘who do I want to be?’ “What kind of person am I becoming?” 

And you know, it doesn’t matter how old you are either! Those who seek personal growth are always learning new things about themselves and the world around them, no matter what their chronological age.

Once you can answer that question, “What kind of person am I becoming?”, it takes effort to know how to grow into that. It’s equally important to acknowledge that without a concerted effort toward the positive, you may become the exact opposite of who you want to be. Is the person I am becoming a negative, stressed out, non-productive, unhappy version of who I strive to be? 

That is where the willingness to learn begins.  Who are you? What kind of person are you becoming? Who do you want to be? Once you answer those questions, you’ll learn a lot about yourself. Which direction will it be?

This has been Kelly Orchard’s Apple A Day… Now, go out and be fruitful!
