Podcast #007: 4 Reasons People Avoid Personal Development (35 minutes)

by Christian Cloud, Kyle Reed, Rohit Rohila

We recently put the question out on our Facebook Page (https://www.facebook.com/gystpodcast/) and asked people how they would define Personal Development. The responses we got back were very interesting. Here are a few of them:

“Having the eagerness to want to learn, educate, and expand your horizons for positive results. Personal Development is about creating a journey of progress and ambition”- Jayne Werner

“A competition with yourself. The goal is to make yourself a better person than you are today. You can use other people as inspiration, but you are your own benchmark”– Katey Mathews

“It’s reprogramming the language of your mind”- Varun Seth

All fantastic ideas, and all very unique from each other. That’s the thing about personal development, it’s “personal” and your own journey is going to be drastically different that anyone else’s. We all have different measuring points for what is out of our comfort zone. For some it’s speaking in front of 5 people, for others is becoming a better parent, while for someone else it could be to make their first million dollars in a year. What Katey said above is important, it’s a competition with yourself and overcoming your self-limiting beliefs.

We all say we want to improve our lives, but not all of us are willing to take those steps. Join us as we explore 4 Reasons People Avoid Personal Development.
