¿Cuáles son las mejores maneras de apoyar su desarrollo personal?

Always be willing to learn. Explore your inner world, thoughts, feelings, and patterns, and understand why you feel like you do. Read daily. Ensure you are learning from someone 3-5 steps ahead of you and on topics you are interested in. Ask for feedback from others. As difficult as it may be, it is crucial to highlight areas you may not know need work (i.e., emotional health, patterns, etc).

Try new activities. Track what you doing the entire day. Find out in your past activities how much time you invested in each activity to know in which direction your interest growing. Self-awareness is the foundation of personal growth. Taking the time to evaluate our strengths and weaknesses provides a roadmap for self-improvement.

For character and leadership development, seek a mentor. You cannot see your blind spots. For growing your strengths and enhancing your limits, start reading with purpose. Read to learn vicariously from others. Set time aside each day to reflect on what you are reading and what you are experiencing capturing learning points and ideas in a journal. Keep a growth mindset.

Double downing on the strengths and working on weaknesses to make it stronger should be the SOP. However, I have a contrary opinion, one can't make everyone so working more on strengths is the best ROI for a mentor and not putting a lot more time into weaknesses.

Beyond knowing your strengths and weaknesses, find your purpose in life. When you do so, it gives you clarity in which direction to start focusing your growth in. Purpose is way more important than understanding your weaknesses. Purpose leads to self-awareness. In fact, who cares about your weakness. Focus on fortifying what you’re already good at and with purpose combined, the world is yours!

1. Define Your Goals: Identify what you want to achieve and improve in your life. 2. Strategize: Outline strategies and steps to reach your goals effectively. 3. Action Items: List specific actions you'll take to implement your strategies. 4. Allocate Resources: Determine what resources you'll need (time, money, courses, etc.). 5. Stay Flexible: Adapt your plan as circumstances change or new opportunities arise. 6. Include Vision: Clarify your long-term vision and how your plan aligns with it. 7. Core Values: Ensure your plan aligns with your personal values and principles. 8. Set Deadlines: Assign timelines to each action item for accountability. 9. Measure Success: Define indicators to track your progress and achievements.

Journaling helps to process and keep a check on the progress of the plans. While the plan is important sitting and reiterating the plan is more important. Sometimes we start working on a project and later we discover a lot more about ourselves and our goal changes so should our plan.

This is a great use case for GPT. Determine your goals use GPT. To help you turn them into SMART goals and craft a roadmap to achieve them. Pro Tip: Strive for understanding the 20% of the content that gets you 80% of the knowledge.

Becoming a parent was a life-altering journey for me. It wasn't just about nurturing a new life, it was also about nurturing myself. Parenthood was a masterclass in self-discovery. In those sleepless nights, I learned about patience, empathy, and resilience. But most importantly, I discovered the power of growth, not just for my little one but for myself. A personal development plan outlines your goals, strategies, and actions. Your personal development plan should evolve with you. It's a living document for your changing needs and circumstances.

É este importante ter plano para alcançar o desenvolvimento pessoal. Contudo, o sucesso só é alcançado com prática, dedicação, disciplina e muita resiliência. Isso leva o indivíduo a causar mudanças na visão, no prazo, nos objetivos, nas atividades e no resultado do sucesso.

I am always ready to learn new things, this boosts my confidence and also makes me realize that there are many things that I need to learn. So, stay curious and never stop learning new things.

Even if you're an expert, you must keep learning and growing. Stay in touch with industry trends and methods. Follow the required blogs and social media.

I believe we should always be learning. We live in incredibly exciting times. There are learning opportunities all around us. Upskilling is not only the best way to facilitate our personal development, it is also the best way to advance our careers. Being highly skilled and being knowledgeable of new information, trends, and technology makes us more valuable to our employers and as a potential job candidate.

Seeing a FAIL as a first attempt in learning can really change your mindset to mistakes and 'failures'. Learning through doing, and via deliberate learning, is a lifelong skill that will help you in a world where change is a certainty. However, recognise the difference between genuine learning you'll actually use and procrasti-learning. Many people avoid doing and procrastinate, with the justification that they're learning something. But if that learning adds no value and detracts from you doing priority activities, is it really just procrastination?

Stay curious. Stay humble. Stay young. I mean it. Learning is the best anti-aging treatment. The moment you think you know it all, you become arrogant. The moment you become arrogant, you become stiff. The moment you lose flexibility, you become old. Read the Tao Te Chin. Lao-Tzu. Daoism is a tremendous new knowledge if you've missed it. Another recommendation? The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff What a lovely little book! PS. You're welcome.

A key to development is cognitive flexibility: the ability to apply existing knowledge to new situations. Flexibility can allow you to shine in fields that others think you shouldn't. Often, your experience is richer than you give it credit for.

En effet pas de baguette magique 🪄, seul le passage à l’action permettra de voir les changements. La théorie n’est rien sans une mise en pratique. Et c’est à force de répétitions que l’on peut réellement incarner le processus et se transformer 💫 Un bon moyen est déjà de retranscrire à d’autres ce qu’on a compris puis d’appliquer concrètement les exercices aussi souvent que possible. Beaucoup trop comptent sur un miracle, mais rien ne bouge pour ceux-là. Se responsabiliser avec un minimum de discipline est selon moi la clé 🔑 Personnellement je n’ai rien changé en attendant des autres, seulement en « travaillant » sur moi et appliquant ce que je découvrais et apprenais, ainsi que grâce aux prises de conscience ✨

Applying what you learn is critical for retention. The more we use and practice something, the better we are at that skill. Using new technology or skills at work is a way to make yourself valued. Right now, many employers are seeking candidates who understand and can leverage generative ai. Being able to demonstrate this knowledge is an absolute plus in almost every sector. Demonstrate what you know, and create value for your team and organization.

A melhor e única forma de evoluir no investimento voltado ao aprendizado é compartilhar o que se aprende. Sabemos que a teoria é importante. Contudo, não há evolução sem a prática. A prática vai consolidar o conhecimento e faz com que a pessoa cresça em experiência. Julgo dizer que o verdadeiro aprendizado vem da prática.

As Albert Einstein best puts it: Learning is experience. Everything else is just information. We learn best when we actively explore and engage with our environment in new ways.

Over my 30 years of professional career I have been personally thru coaching and most recently to mentoring, in the later both giving and receiving. I have experienced, that said, an evolution on the topic of “feedback”. Nowadays there are abundant literature, podcasts, Teds, etc. to learn about feedback. My humble and short advice about feedback is to be open and dedicate the necessary time to provide and/or receive it. If you are not ready for feedback or in a rush or in a mad mode, it would be better to pass or to reschedule it. Finally, I can see the private corporate world more developed on feedback matters than the public sectors and also, for example, law firms 😉… great day to all!

Personal development is a lifelong journey, and everyone's path is unique. I consider that asking for feedback from trusted friends, family, or colleagues to gain insights into your strengths and areas for improvement is a good way to enhance your personal growth. I also suggest to build a supportive network that support your personal growth. Connect with mentors or join communities that align with your interests and aspirations will help you improve your skills for sure. EM

Asking for feedback doesn’t come naturally. Set reminders to ask at least 1 person daily, then apply what you’ve learned (as you see fit) and watch yourself get 1% better daily.

No one is an island, especially when it comes to professional development. Additionally, it's crucial to consider how to effectively act upon the feedback received. Collecting opinions and insights is one thing, but the true magic lies in analyzing that information, prioritizing it, and transforming it into actionable steps. Often, individuals can feel overwhelmed by conflicting or negative feedback. Therefore, providing guidance on navigating through such situations would enhance the value of your point.

Do more than ask, "What worked and what didn't?" or "How can I improve?" 1. Know what you want to gain from the feedback. 2. Prepare specific questions related to the gain. 3. Select the best people for the feedback. 4. Take notes and ask follow-up questions. 5. Pinpoint the top three takeaways and how you will apply them.

So many people don’t do this because we’re told it’s selfish to focus on your accomplishments. But one of the best ways to advance in your career and build your sense of self-confidence and agency is to pause when you have a win and celebrate it. I like to ask people to share something about themselves that they’re proud of or that they appreciate. You could think of something you’ve achieved or accomplished and then ask yourself how you’re going to celebrate it. Start by soaking it in and feeling a moment of healthy pride. Then, take an intentional step to invest in or care for yourself as a way to commemorate what you’ve done. I love getting fresh flowers, going out to eat, spa days, mini staycations and getting new outfits!

Celebrating your success and achievements .. Have a criteria for celebration Success Criteria which I follow : Be a Better Person Than Yesterday . How to check if "we are better than yesterday" ? 📌Learnt one new thing - Celebrate that small win and acknowledge it in Journaling process . 📌Emotion Triggers Management : Did you handle the problem effectively without reacting ? Achievements: Your Milestones during the journey are the achievements . 📌Professional Achievement : If you are guitar playing - Playing one song. If you are a writer - completion of one chapter. 📌Personal Achievement : Body : Did Exercise for 7 days straight, consistency requires celebration. Mind : Read one book

On sous-estime souvent tout ce que l’on accomplit chaque jour pour se rapprocher de son but. Faire le point régulièrement (si possible quotidiennement) de chaque réalisation faites (même les plus petites) permet de prouver à son cerveau 🧠 qu’on en a fait bien plus que ce qu’il pensait. Un bon moyen de rester motivé.e, car même si la to-do List n’est pas cochée dans sa totalité des jalons ont été posés. Alors se féliciter et célébrer chaque action réalisée, chaque étape franchie 🥳

Simple things can do wonders, acknowledge your efforts and celebrate your small victories. It also helps to take a pause and work on the mistakes and feedback.

Celebrate often and early. Celebrate the small wins on the way just as much as the big once-in-a-lifetime wins. Congratulate yourself for the progress you've made, which is often the issue, we don't even see the progress we make. Many times, it's the people around us who see it first, so again, embrace feedback.

In order to support my personal development, I use visualisation techniques to see myself where I want to reach. I work on having a positive mindset. I switch a negative thought to a positive one. I break down bigger goals into smaller ones and celebrate achieving them. I see challenging situations as something which is making me more resilient and keep on moving upwards and onwards. I connect with self and make peace with myself and with people around me.

Personal Development, the word says it all. It is all within. I want to share the perspective from my personal experience. Being open and not limiting ourself to the boundaries we have set for ourselves, most of the times we don't even realize that we have set those on ourselves and keep restricting ourselves. In order to develop ourself, we got to keep trying with an open mind even if we haven't done it in the past. I have surprised myself and I am sure everyone one of us too has it within them to develop themselves. All the best!

The drivel that has been written under this post is a reflection on exactly why people do not develop. I could argue about the quality of information sources all day, but what really matters is two things… 1. Think for yourselves. Do it for hours every day. 2. Get counselling to help you think for yourselves.

Life is a never ending learning journey. Never stop being curious and being hungry to learn. First know yourself and what you want to achieve. Your Why must be strong enough for you to see it through. Once you’ve understood your Why, set out the plans & identify how and where to fulfill it. E.g. if your self development plan is to learn to bake pies, find the right baking school to attend classes. Apply what you’ve learned and keep practicing. Most importantly enjoy yourself.

The most valuable thing you can do to support your personal development, in my experience is to make time for it. Sounds simply doesn’t it? In reality we devote too little time to do the thinking and to truly develop enough self awareness to drive the changes we would like to see. How much time and thought did you give your last PDP? Create the headspace and the environment to do it justice and suddenly you have something meaningful and actionable to drive you forward.
