Personal Growth Can Have the Biggest Impact

"Of all the things that can have an effect on your future, I believe personal growth is the greatest. We can talk

about sales growth, profit growth, asset growth, but all of this probably will not happen without personal growth."

— Jim Rohn

I completely agree with Jim about this.  We bring ourselves to everything we do.  When we invest our energy, our ideas, our time and our money we infuse our businesses with a piece of ourselves.  Making yourself the best YOU can be helps make your business the best it can be.  Even if you are not in your own business, you help shape the business you work for or the causes you volunteer for, or the family you are raising.  Bring your best to the table.  Significant impact can come from small changes or small efforts toward your own personal growth.

This week:  Just notice the impact you bring to the things you do.  Notice the impact you and your ideas have on those around you.  Is there an area where you would like to increase your impact?  Ask yourself "What would I need to improve in myself to do that?"  Take an hour out out your week to focus on an area in which you would like to improve.  Notice the impact that has on your life, your business, your family and people with whom you come into contact.   These small changes can have a significant effect.

You Control Your Own Personal Growth

"You are the only problem you will ever have and you are the only solution. Change is inevitable, personal growth is always a personal decision."

~Bob Proctor

When you begin to realize that you are both the problem AND the solution, you empower yourself to move forward.  You empower yourself to grow in the direction of YOUR choosing.  Which would you rather have in your life:  the belief that you are a victim of the capricious whims of life? Or the belief that you can create your own destiny?  The universe is unfolding as it should and change is inevitable.  How do you want it to impact you?

This week:  Begin to look at your "problems" as creations of your own.  If you can create it, you can also un-create it.  You can solve it.  Ask yourself "Why have I created this?"  "What purpose does it serve in my life?"  Listen carefully for the answer from that wise part of you within.  There is always something you think you are accomplishing by having the problem.  It may not consciously make sense to your rational mind, but it was devised by you to serve some unconscious purpose.  Next ask yourself "What do I need to do about this?"  Brainstorm solutions.  Whether your problem completely disappears or not, you will be on the road to taking charge of your own personal growth and change.
