Personal Growth is a Choice

November 12, 2008

in Personal Growth

I don’t think growth hap­pens by default. I think pos­i­tive growth is a con­scious choice.

You don’t grow by default as you grow older. I know peo­ple older than me who’ve stopped grow­ing since before they were my age.

You don’t grow just by being thrown into new sit­u­a­tions. I was in the army for two and a half years, and I saw peo­ple who were the same the day they left as the day before they enlisted.

I think you make a con­scious choice to grow, based on three main deci­sions: what you focus on, what you decide it means, and what to do about it.

So please, choose well my friend.
