Are you satisfied with where you are in life? Do you have the
desire to be a better person - to be more highly successful,
better at public speaking, more adept at writing, more mature
in "people skills"? "If you are content with yourself, you'll
stop taking those little steps forward and begin taking big
steps backward," said Greg Maddux. Recognizing that you need
continuous personal development is a good thing.
You must take charge of your own progress. You are the only
one who can develop yourself from within. Personal excellence
is a commitment, a life-force that is replenishing to the
spirit. Brian Tracy wrote, "Personal development is your
springboard to personal excellence. Ongoing, continuous,
non-stop personal development literally assures you that there
is no limit to what you can accomplish."
Do it one step at a time. "Everyone is trying to accomplish
something big, not realizing that life is made up of little
things," said Frank A. Clark. Robert Kennedy had the same
point of view: "Few will have the greatness to bend history
itself, but each one of us can work to change a small portion
of events, and in the total of all those acts will be written
the history of this generation."
With firm conviction, Dale Carnegie said, "Most of the
important things in the world have been accomplished by people
who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at
all." Persevere at self-development - at moving yourself
forward. Before you are aware of your accomplishments, you
will have given the world your talent, and created something
of lasting value.
