Self-Development is a choice that we make. It is a daily challenge we choose to take on. It is a lifelong process. It is undertaken with the aim of reaching our best potential and fullest potential. It is living, not just existing.
From birth, our personalities were molded by our environment. Our parents were our first influencers, then our teachers, our friends. As we grow, we are exposed to society and all the good and the bad in it. The people, our environment, social media, technology has influenced us.
We grew in our environment just like the seed grows in the soil.
But now that we are fully aware of ourselves and in control. We now take the full reins to our life. We decide what we want to be, and we find our life’s purpose, our why? We sit down and figure out what our ideal you are so we know what to aim for.
It is a personal journey that we take. And then daily, we take action to better ourselves. We learn new skills. We try to overcome bad habits.

First of all I want to say fantastic blog!
I had a quick question in which I’d like
to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to find
out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts
before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts
in getting my ideas out there.
I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first
10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to
figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
Thanks!
