Personal Development and the Authentic Self

Apathy, pain, fear, frustration, anger, and the sense of being disconnected from your own life are the price you pay for losing touch with your authentic self. Obviously, you would not create such an existence on purpose. If your life isn’t working the way you want it to, it’s not because you planned it that way. You’re not some moron who can’t tell the difference between pain and pleasure. Given the clear choice ,all of us, you included, would definitely choose a life that was consistent with the authenticside of yourself. You would create a life that was fun, fulfilling, exciting and meaningful.”

Self Matters by Dr. Phillip C. McGraw ( Dr. Phil )

Fun, fulfilling, exciting and meaningful. What about your life? On a scale of 1- 10 how fun is it? How exciting? How fulfilling? On a scale of 1- 10 how meaningful is it?

Are you ready for a change?

” The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created first in the mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made” John Schaar

The first step to choosing your future, is knowing that a choice can be made; personal development is about consciously choosing and then moving (taking action) toward the life you want to live. A life that is fun, exciting, fulfilling and meaningful.

A life that is fun, exciting, fulfilling and meaningful - isn’t that what we are all striving for?
