Is it Striving to Be Your Best YOU?...

I'm not too sure, to be honest, but I do acknowledge that my own personal growth has fascinated me ever since I was an awkward, shy teenager trying to make sense of the world. And maybe your story is not too different.

The thing is, personal growth IS inevitable, whether you choose to 'study' it on a self-help site, in a book, or just let life teach you as and when you need to be taught. Personal growth is inevitable, with or without training, and it's unending.

The following pages will help you, should you wish to be helped, in that unending personal journey...

As I say above, I'm not sure what the main purpose of development of self is all about.

I'm not sure I'm that concerned about defining personal development, actually.

But I guess it's more or less about using your strengths to achieve your goals, and the development of your weaknesses (or at least acknowledgement of them) so you can be a better person. Or being the best me I can be. (By the way, that's my job! You have to settle for being the best 'you', you can be. Deal?)

How about you? What is personal improvement for you? This YouTube video, starring Brian Tracy, does a great job of explaining what it means to him.
