on a comfortable chair at home. Sunday is perhaps the best day to do some soul-searching,
do some thinking and to reflect over things and happenings earlier in life
and over the past few days.
Somehow making yourself mentally and also physically ready for new challenges
for the coming weeks.
What about my own attitude in general?
What can i do with my own attitude towards and about other people?
Am i judging other people? Do i understand the word prejudice?
Analyzing some event in our life about certain situation.
What went right and what went wrong?
Why and where it did go wrong?
Think, reflect and take notes.
What about my communication skills?
Is there anything here that I can do better?
I am clever enough to make myself understood?
How do I hear like when i speak?
Am i talking too fast so I swallowed some words
so people missed to hear, thus changing and conveying
a wrong message.
A miss-communication.
We can never be perfect on communication, so it means that there is always
something to learn about.
Do some exercise at home.
Today, I am thinking to talk with myself on the mirror, my diction, my tone, and the tempo
of my speech are the focus of the day.
My goal is to analyze every part of it and make some comments.
It is difficult, but we can always try and strive to become better.
Personal strategy.
Business analysis strategy like SWOT analysis (or SWOT matrix) can also be applied
on making personal assessment.
I personally believe that SWOT as intended for use in analyzing business is also an excellent tool
for personal development.
And SWOT as coined word, stands for: strength, weakness, opportunity and threats.
On personal development level. I am talking about:
My strength, my weakness, my opportunities
and my threats.
I believe that we have to have focus on our strengths and build on it.
Strive upon doing self-searching process, and know about our weaknesses,
Do something with it and turn it into something positive.
Basically an individual in normal situations, have the rights and possibilities like the others.
Meaning, he/she at the best of his/her ability can develop all areas in life.
Know yourself.
Know your inner strength.
Everybody has it.
Set a goal in life, one after the other. Analyze and go for it.
Find ways and means to reach your goal. Take notes. Evaluate.
Always strive for the betterment. Follow some wise people.
You may consider following some advises, but in the end you will
always settle on your own.
Be a master of your own fate and make re-evaluations and re-considerations
along the way.
Remember, personal development is a process.
It takes time to become a better person.
And lastly but not the least,
Be aware of something that you may not have thought about. It is about yourself.
For whether you like it or not, you can be your own threats, your own hindrance, your
own obstacle. When you are aware of it, then you can do something with it !
Knowing than I am my own potential treat for myself,
I can find ways to combat it.
Thus making my way towards successful self-development easier and clearer.
I know for instance that I need a structure in my everyday life,
and this leads to more focus and effectiveness.
I am determined to become a better person,
According to the famous russian philosopher and political thinker Leo Tolstoy,
"Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing
himself."
One thing is for sure, if we are to become a good example for our fellowman, then we have to strive to become better ourselves first by improving our personal character.
