The Value of Personal Growth
The end-of-year finish line is within your grasp. Budgets are finalized, targets set and holiday parties are in full swing; all whilst you race to end this year on a high. It's not easy but you rise to the challenge, going the extra mile to inspire your teams to deliver their very best.
Often we neglect to give ourselves the same consideration for how we want to be as a leader and in life. So many of us are guilty of postponing intentional personal development at a tremendous cost to our future selves. It’s so easy to say, “I’ll focus on me more next year” and that moment of contemplation for ourselves never comes.
Why is strategic planning for who you are equally as important as your business growth?
One perspective, you let life happen to you. You go through the motions and focus more on doing than being. Your subconscious is on autopilot until one day you wake up and you wonder “is that it?” and you know you could have experienced so much more if only you had lived more intentionally.
Another perspective, you see this as an opportunity to level up. More than just surviving year-after-year, you choose to thrive. You consciously decide who you want to be. You set an intention of how you want to grow as a person, so that you can drive more impact as a leader and in life.
Being is as important as doing.
By investing in your personal growth is the key to unlock fear, uncertainty and doubt and lead from a place of power.
Key benefits include:
Increase your self-confidence: connect with your inner knowing and trust that you can achieve so much as you take actions toward your empowered self.
Cultivate a growth mindset: every situation can be viewed from a fixed or growth mindset. The number of opportunities available to you is determined by your perspective. You find meaning in every experience and grow from it.
Build resilience: challenges are tough, isolating and debilitating. Gain self awareness to step into your power and leverage these new insights to intentionally face adversity as it comes and bounce back stronger.
By investing this time in yourself, you rise to become the leader you aspire to be. You exude confidence, assurance and growth. Even when times get tough, you know that you can bounce back quicker and stronger. And you empower your teams to do the same as your principles get translated to the organization, not top down but organically.
