In simple words, personal development refers to the initiatives that you can take to improve your traits and qualities. Regardless of your age, there is always some room for improvement. If you work on your personality development, you can be more professional and get the most of your organization’s potential. Given below are some tips that can help you with this.
Dress up
First off, you should dress up well based on the dress code set by your organization. Although good looks matter, the way you dress up is also important.
Everyone is different
Since everyone is different, comparing yourself with others is not a good idea. It will only make you depressed even worse, especially when you focus on your shortcomings. You may want to channelize your strength and skills towards your qualities or positive traits. Therefore, you may not want to imitate others. In other words, you should always be yourself.
Learn from social skills
To stay with yourself, to be here now, means to be present with whatever is going on. Not off in the future, hoping for something better. Not back in the past, wishing things were different. Here now, whether it’s comfortable, or not.
It’s when we avoid the now-moment that we lose power. That we abandon ourselves. Unfortunately, by avoiding our feelings with substances and experiences, we will never feel better about ourselves.
True transformation happens when we accept ourselves exactly as we are, exactly where we are, right now.
Easy to say, and usually, not so easy to do. Yet, it gets easier once you begin to realize how truly powerful you are.
Next time you find yourself avoiding, whether it’s with food, internet, tv, shopping, alcohol, or any other type of escape, ask yourself what you’re avoiding. Be gentle with yourself. Pause and notice what you’re feeling. If you can, stay with yourself.
Stay with yourself, through thick and thin. Stay at the time when you need yourself the most. Stay to reveal the truth of who you are.
Ideas to help you stay:
- Sit, close your eyes, and notice what you feel. Don’t push anything away. Just sit. Don’t worry if you don’t feel peaceful or enlightened. Just sit and notice. Stay with any discomfort.
- Breathe deeply, from your belly, and notice the flow of your breath. Notice the beat of your heart. Notice this power within you. Know that this power is always with you.
- Send love and compassion to any discomfort you feel. Any and all discomfort is worthy of your love and compassion. If you can’t summon feelings of love and compassion, that’s okay too. Stay with what you are feeling. Notice any insights that arise.
- Use EFT Tapping to tap on your feelings. Accept them, and if they’re ready, allow them to release.
- Connect with your higher consciousness. Use meditation to tune into your higher consciousness. Ask it to help you during challenging times. This added assistance will help you tune into solutions, and relief, you didn’t see before.
For most of us, it’s not possible to stay present at all times. Escapes can be pleasurable and sometimes necessary. And, we can choose to stay present with any escape. However, when escapes turn into chronic avoidance, we will always experience more pain. We can’t maintain the bliss of the escape, so we fall into a funk, or look for new ways to escape.
The key to all of this is to stay. Stay with the discomfort, with love and acceptance, so that it can begin to transform. By being here now, we find the true bliss of a clear mind and soul, as we open to the gifts of the universe.
