Personal development is to discover, design, and deliver truths and principles to build wisdom and skills that help make better choices and create meaning.
While all development processes involve the same discover, design, and deliver structure, they are all based on personal development. The three levels of personal development are the discipline of self, the art of fulfillment, and the science of achievement.
The discipline of self or the personal foundation includes developing our identity, mindset, emotional fitness, and physical health. Our identity includes our background, worldview, character, and personality. The best mindset for anything you desire to do, is a positive growth mindset.
The art of fulfillment can be found in three areas, what we have faith and hope in, how we engage our desires and strengths, and our relationships and love. This is where we create meaning in life, which helps us feel fulfilled. Purpose is a deeper level of meaning and is rooted in one or more of our faith, work, or relationships. Purpose is based on how we apply our uniqueness to the world.
The science of achievement is best built on a strong personal foundation and fulfillment. Achievements can turn into long-lasting legacy when they respect the principles of planning, productivity, grit, and investment. Compound interest isn't just for money, it also applies to knowledge, health, and relationships.
While time is our most important natural resource, each of these areas are important natural opportunities. The more we develop these natural opportunities the more fulfilled we feel, the more meaning we create in life, and the more it raises our collective humanity.
