Why do I go on so much about personal development? The reason is I am very much on my own unique journey of personal development, self-improvement and growth as a man, adult and human being. I understand Exin ISO20KF the importance of it, the reasons to do it, perhaps more importantly, why it is a travesty if we neglect improvement and development from our lives. Ok! So this may not be everyone's cup of tea, maybe you don't like tea and are more of a coffee drinker. Maybe you are actually happy with who you are, how your life is and what direction your future path is heading. If this is you then I commend and respect you greatly. I also say well done for being in a position of contentment and acceptance of where you are at this moment in your journey. If however you are someone who hasn't yet reached that point, or perhaps someone who has questioned what path they have chosen and what direction their actions are pointing them towards. Then the words I write may just strike a chord with aspects of your own life.
An example of personal development, of which there are many, is of course alcohol. Why do I mention alcohol? From purely my own personal perspective, I used to be someone who would have the old saying, ' Dutch Courage ' so that I could pluck up the courage to talk to the opposite sex. I needed the few drinks of alcohol to give myself the false courage to approach the ladies while out on a night out with friends. Exin ISFS Nothing wrong with that you may say. So! that is normal others may comment. Ah! but wait. How many of you would do that, would have the drinks to get the bravado and confidence up, only to actually carry on drinking right through the entire evening until the early hours. How many of you carried on through the cut off point, only to get to the end of the night and actually be too drunk to make any sense to others when all you wanted to do in the first place was have the confidence to talk to a lady or three. How many people have woken up the next day with a hangover and alone frustrated that you got too drunk and blew a chance of speaking to someone who you may have gotten on with. Does any of this sound familiar? Maybe not, but maybe it does ring some bells.
Personal development and self-improvement are important elements in understanding this. As you grow and learn about not only yourself but life, you realize that improving yourself instills confidence in you, not false confidence that alcohol brings but real confidence, the type of confidence that you take into a night out, that sort of confidence that allows you to hold fun, stimulating and coherent chat without the false confidence the hard stuff brings. Speaking from someone who has worked hard to become confident and someone who goes out and doesn't drink, it is actually a real eye opener to suddenly see what people look like who are drunk. It really isn't a pretty sight and shows you what you would look like to others. The term revelation comes to mind and isn't used lightly. Although I feel there is nothing wrong with having a drink in moderation, using it to gain confidence is a recipe for disaster A00-281 that can become something people depend on in allowing them to loosen up enough to be able to talk to strangers and the opposite sex. Thinking about this, wouldn't you like to be someone who can be who you really are in all situations and with everyone you meet day or night.
