The importance of Personal Growth and development today traces back thousands of years to the point we are at now, but noticeably some of the biggest leaps have occurred in the last 40 or so years. If you are going to “make it” in the world today- “knowing thyself” is essential.
The inception of the “est” phenomenon, other organizations have emerged and offered folks the ability to beyond who it is they thought they had been into an encounter of themselves previously reserved for those willing to sit on mountaintops for decades in solemn meditation. Among them, mentioned far more prominently on this web website are Insight, LifeSpring, and others.
Barriers to personal growth and development are ironically contained within the same seeds of achieving it. In other worlds, focus on one’s self and how one related to the world is a good question to start with, but if thought about in a way that you becomes self involved, it will be a solid way to potentially convince yourself that you are doing somehting that facilitates growth when in reality you are becoming more locked into reinforcing the position you are in. An example of this is “I am a seeker of knowledge”. This can either mean you are open and fluid or you are locked into the script you tell yourself that you will never be someone who can actually have an experience of deep and profound knowing but someone who is forever ever a “seeker” of it. Yes… the barriers to personal growth and development can look very open and willing!
I am certain a lot of folks would think it would be good if there had been some sort of objective “Personal Development tracker” yardstick- but this is a trapping of mindless self indulgence. The importance of personal growth and development today and how it can be “measured” comes not from an internal knowledge of one’s self! This would be type of a personalized development therapy.
Real self-fulfillment is private growth measured in the “space” between people- and individuals with what they are most impassioned and fascinated with – and thus being engaged in becoming present to their lives. Those who have made the most important differences in the world know this. When they are “in the flow” or “in the zone” as they would put it, they genuinely know who they are- and it is obvious to those around them.
