In your pursuit of becoming a better version of yourself, there are key areas which you must prioritize when investing in yourself. Before I share those key areas with you, let me quickly point out that you have the power to become whoever you wish to be. That means that you are who you are today based on the choices you had made. If for any reason you don't feel satisfied with who you are, the good news is that you can change and become who you would love to be. But it begins with intentionality. Just like John Maxwell says, "Growth doesn't happen by accident. It takes intentionality to grow." Here are the key areas of investing in yourself: 1. Invest in your personal development: The desire to become more, do more and have more is the drive you need to embark on this journey of personal development. Personal development is the process of improving yourself through conscious efforts, learning, and growth in various aspects of life. It involves activities and practices that enhance skills, knowledge, self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and behaviors. Personal development is a broad concept which encompasses areas such as career growth, relationships, health, finances, and overall well-being. This is a significant area you must invest in if you desire to improve. 2. Invest in your talents and skills: Personal development enables you to identify your areas of strengths and weaknesses. Those areas of the strengths which you possess are indicators of your talents. You have to then invest in those talents & turn them into skills which will boost your value in the marketplace. Most people have talents which they make no efforts to refine and develop and that is why they keep struggling and playing small. To unleash your full potential and become a better version of yourself, your talents must be developed. Invest in mentorships and courses that will help you master a skill which is deeply connected to your talents. If you have the talent of speaking, then invest in trainings that will help you become a professional speaker. If your talent is singing, then go to music school to refine that gift and gain mastery. 3. Invest in strategic relationships: One of the things that would give you massive lift in life is relationship. The extent you will go in life is largely dependent on who you know and what you know. As you grow up in life, you will discover there are key roles different people play in your life. You can't easily get to the top all by yourself. In other words, you don't go up by yourself, there are people in your life who pave the way for you to get to the top. This is why you must intentionally invest in strategic relationships which would support you as you emerge into a better version of yourself. One of the ways to invest in your relationships is by choosing your friends wisely and ensuring you don't damage good relationships. Don't be the kind of person who doesn't care about people's feelings. Practice the rule of OQP: Only Quality People. Dissociate from negative minded people who would influence you negatively. Only spend time with people of value and by so doing, the quality of your life will improve and becoming a better version of yourself will be achieved. I hope this helps. #personaldevelopment #blaqsbitrending
