Please give an example of how you have taken ownership of your personal development or have

encouraged and supported the development of others. What was the situation? What did you do?

What was the outcome?

If anyone can help me with this question I’d be most grateful thanks.

I took my career in my hands. My life, especially my career was going nowhere. I had the qualification and talent, but still I was lagging behind. So, I just got a grip of my life and decided to change my whole working manner. Started putting in more hours and worked with goals in my mind.

The outcome is that I got two promotions and increments in less than 2 year :)

What do you think of self-hypnosis for personal development?

Posted by admin on Oct 29, 2009 under Personal Development


I think this is a great question. Self hypnosis or generative trance work speaks to our core selves, the original part of each of us that holds our unique aptitudes and creativity. Going to our source, which is a relaxing and meditative practice, can help us find basic truths about who we are and be a life-altering process. At a minimum, it is a relaxation practice. At a maximum, it becomes a way to heal past trauma and help the individual operate from a place of compassion about the self. From this compassionate and centered place, the individual’s world view expands and so too the individual’s life expands. Personal development, you bet! What do you think about self hypnosis for personal development? A good question indeed.

PDP

well, because it makes you look good to them so they will remember you when there is an opening that you can move forward to. Or, so you can make sure your goals are in line with the company goals. If your goals and their goals are too different, you may want to change your goals, or change your job.

Does Personal Development really work? How can I find really great, motivated people to work with?

Posted by admin on Oct 3, 2009 under Personal Development


Hi Anne. I think there is two parts to your question, so I’ll break it up as such:

1> Does personal development really work? In my personal experience, yes it really does work. From the age of 17-27 I worked in Sales in the IT Industry. After working with a key group of strong sales individuals who were highly motivated I decided to heed their advice and put a lot of effort and energy into really upgrading my personal skills. I started reading books like Stephen Covey’s the Seven Habits of Highly Effective people, starting reading up on sales methodology, I took a few sales courses.. was reading a lot of self help books including Anthony Robbins. The first year of doing so, it helped me get a relative decent amount of success. But come the third year of doing so (and I went to go and see Anthony Robbins’ live in person at a seminar he holds called "Unleash the Power Within"), I was able to more than double my salary (the 1st year, I had a base salary of about $35000, within 3 years my base salary jumped up to $75 000. So does it work? For me it did. In spades.

2> How do I find really great motivated people to work with? I have always found that like tend to attract each other. People who are down, will hold their pity party sessions at the coffee machine together. And likewise, people that are motivated will eventually find each other as well. So the best advice I would have, is to be focused, motivated and outgoing. You will attract others like you, to you.

To assist you, here are the hyperlinks for the Seven habits of highly effective people as well as Unleash the power within. there are a lot more that I used to help train myself, but these are probably the two most important ones.

Cheers.
