How to Create Your Own Personal Development Plan
In personal development, planning is very important, in fact, without a properly thought plan your quest for self-improvement would really blur and your chances at succeeding would be really low.
Therefore, in starting your quest for self-development, make it a point to fully plan not only your goals but also the ways on achieving it.
Now, in planning the first step should be selecting a goal you want to achieve.
This could either be a personal or a professional goal.
In selecting what goals you'd like to achieve, make sure that before selecting, you have fully made a thorough self audit, to properly set up priorities.
Here are some goal examples: Personal Goals: Losing weight, changing a bad habit, saving money, defining yourself, being affectionate to your family.
Professional Goals: Being efficient in the workplace, being reliable, stress management, good work-mate relationship Goals should be Flexible This is a very important characteristic of a goal.
It should have the ability to be easily changed in the event when the situation requires without damaging the efforts which already been put into it.
This may sound a little complicated but this is actually really simple.
Let me give you a way and an example.
The only thing you need here is to make a long-term and short-term plan from a single goal.
For example you plan on losing weight, and your primary goal is to lose a total of 30 lbs at the end of six months, that would be your primary goal.
The secondary goal can be, for you to lose a specific amount of weight per week that would total also all the weight that you will lose by the end of six months.
Through this you will be able to track if you are nearing or going farther from your goal.
Having properly set goals will help you successfully undertake you pursuit for development, it will allow you to evaluate current progress while still in the middle of your plan and make changes if necessary.
This will give higher chances in succeeding your quest for personal development.
Nevertheless, keep in mind that having a perfect goal will not assure you in succeeding your journey to personal development.
These are just important point that will remove a lot of burden, but all responsibility still lies in you.
It would still be with your persistence and will to change.
So, in your quest, strengthen you frame of mind to conquer any trial that causes you to think that you'll not succeed.
For there won't be any shortages of it and if you have a weak disposition, you will surely give thus wasting all your hard work and effort.
As what I constantly say, in this journey, there are no shortcuts available, instead there is only either a straight path or a longer path and a dead-end, the straight path is the path in which you completely execute your plan, the longer path is when you commit mistakes but still keeps going and dead-end is the path when you give up.
