Following your gut instinct

Published on 5 August 2010 By Paul Worswick

There is an abundance of gurus, blogs and other resources available, not only on the Internet, but off-line too, where you can easily become knowledgeable about how to achieve success. Many of these personal development tools include coaches, goal setting, personality profiling to name but a few. They do however tend to constrain you within a fixed, whilst not rigid, model; it can limit your thinking if you’re not too careful.

Published on 11 July 2010 By Paul Worswick

All this talk about setting goals, achieving outcomes, planning this and planning that leads me to ask the question; “how do you celebrate your success?” Celebrations or celebrating your successes and achievements are just as important as all the hard work you put into the planning and completing the task.

How This Personal Development Strategy Could Simplify Your Goal Setting

Published on 15 June 2010 By Guest Writer

To have a personal development strategy means to have a plan. It means you do what other successful people do: in business, in sports, in education and so on. No successful person ever in any area relied on chance or luck or just “played by ear” and were suddenly, for no reason hugely successful. That is what we like to think though. Wouldnt it be so much more comfortable if success, wealth or health just happened?! No! That is irresponsible thinking. That is not being in charge of your life.

Goals, Failure and Personal Development

Published on 8 June 2010 By Guest Writer

Although goal-setting has been proven to help launch you towards the success you desire many people fail to reach their goals and therefore they become a block to their future success. This is because we tend to set up beliefs based on prior experience. Reaching goals sets up a mental belief that you can reach goals. If you have reached some goals previously then you will have strong, positive beliefs about your ability to do it again. If, on the other hand, you have tried and failed numerous times to reach goals you probably have a very negative view about goal-setting. This view, or belief, will seriously damage any future attempt to reach your desires.
