I remember about 15 years ago hearing the phrase "personal development" was something for a select few, something closely related to a psychologist or something like that.
Nowadays, talking about personal development is commonplace, we can see it in all areas of our lives, we open YouTube and watch a personal development video, we turn on Spotify and listen to a personal development podcast, if we go to the bookstore we will surely also find a book on the subject. It is worth noting that today many authors are vindicated who for decades had not been recognized or who nobody even knew who they were, today they are celebrities even after death.
¿Que es el desarrollo personal? Hemos resumir al desarrollo personal como a la mejora continua de diferentes aspectos de nuestras vidas, así como decimos en el coaching es pasar de un punto a al punto B, llegar a ser nuestra mejor versión día a día. Todo esto incluye el desarrollo de nuevas habilidades, actitudes y sobretodo hábitos que nos ayudan a crecer, a su vez, todo esto nos ayuda a hacer mucho más efectivos y alcanzar las metas que nos establecemos.
Specifically, personal development can help us in different aspects of our lives, including our leadership. When we talk about improving leadership, we are not only talking about leading other people, we are referring to becoming better leaders of our own lives, learning to make better decisions, to inspire confidence in others, and also to communicate much better.
This allows us to develop greater productivity as we learn to develop our skills such as organization or time management, at the same time we are much more productive and this in turn allows us to enjoy what makes us better as people such as: enjoying our friends and family more.
Personal development is synonymous with continuous growth, continuous improvement and this allows us to live with greater motivation, it allows us to take advantage of new opportunities since we are in constant learning, in turn we increase our self-confidence thus improving our relationships, these being key in all aspects of our lives, in the personal, professional and work spheres.
In conclusion: personal development consists of investing in ourselves, thereby improving all areas of our lives.
