Have you ever stopped to ask yourself whether you are only working towards achieving more, -earning more, advancing your career, attaining greater success and reaching your goals- or whether you are also working towards becoming a better person?
I have just completed John C. Maxwell’s The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, and one of the biggest lessons I am taking away is that growth must be intentional.
For me, growth is not just about the positions we hold, the qualifications we acquire or the goals we achieve. It is also about becoming more self-aware, learning to listen, being willing to look within, embrace change and become the person I aspire to be.
I am still learning, and I certainly have not mastered everything. But I have realized that every stage of life gives us another opportunity to grow.
Over the coming weeks, I will be sharing the 15 laws, one lesson at a time, and reflecting on what they mean in my own life.
So let me ask you. Who are you becoming as you work towards what you want to achieve?
Let’s keep growing together.
