HOW CAN PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT HELP ME?
Personal development is just that: it’s personal.
Every human is different. If our society cracked the nut on personal development, every self-help book would help everyone. Or every learning process would benefit every student.
But we know from our life experiences that there’s no “one-size-fits-all” solution to anything when it comes to human nature.
It’s important to lean on personalized support like coaching to help craft a catered plan that works for you. You won’t have the same needs, strengths, opportunities, and skills as your neighbor. So why would your personal development plan be the same?
Push yourself outside of your comfort zone. By doing so, you'll be on the path to reaching your full potential.
While self-actualization and Inner Work® is a lifelong process, your personal development goals shouldn't be daunting. Start small — like building a new skill or even investing in work-life balance. By doing so, you'll set yourself up for success in all areas of your life.
If you're ready to make a change to improve the quality of your life, consider how personal and professional development coaching can help. With help from BetterUp, you can awaken your full potential..
WHAT ARE THE MAIN PERSONAL DEVELOPEMENT SKILLS TO WORK ON?
Personal development is looking inward and focusing on ways to better yourself. Personal development increases your self-awareness, your self-esteem, increases your skills, and fulfills your aspirations.
At Success Growth Academy we strongly belief in personal inner work. In many ways, personal development is a form of Personal Inner Work. It is the act of looking inward to achieve a purpose or result, especially in the pursuit of clarity, purpose, and passion in life.
Personal development is much larger than just career development or self-development. It encompasses all aspects of your life where you’d like to see personal growth — and it doesn’t discriminate on where it shows up for you.
When it comes to personal development, it’s hard to not reference Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. According to Maslow, your basic needs need to be fulfilled in order to reach your fullest potential. In other words. To reach self-actualization means we’re reaching the highest levels of self-awareness, self-confidence, personal growth, and self-realization.
Much like Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, we see five different areas of personal development. Different personal development goals can fall into different categories.
Mental
Exercising your brain and staying mentally fit is critical to personal development.
New call-to-action: Social
Social connections and relationships are also a must-have for any personal development.
And from social connections, we gain important skills. Like communication skills, problem-solving, relationship-building, and the ability to receive (and give) feedback. We also learn from those around us and their experiences.
Spiritual
Personal growth and development — whether you’re religious or not — can come through in spirituality. It’s important to recognize that religion and spirituality are not synonymous. In fact, far from it.
Spirituality means you’re investing in a deeper understanding of your own self in the world around you.
Emotional
Emotional personal development often goes hand-in-hand with emotional intelligence. At its simplest, emotional intelligence is the ability to understand feelings. Beyond feelings, it’s understanding how those feelings shape our thoughts and actions.
Physical
A healthy body nourishes a healthy mind. There’s an intrinsic link between your physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
This aspect of personal development is focused on physical health — like nutrition, sleep, exercise, and movement. When your physical self is nourished, it’s likely your mind is also reaping those benefits.
Increased self-awareness and self-esteem.
Personal growth requires looking inward at your own thoughts, feelings, habits, and reactions. It requires attentiveness — and awareness — to who you are as a person in a present state. But it also challenges you to look to the future to where you want to go.
Increased mental fitness.
Becoming mentally fit requires work. And many aspects of personal development aid in building strong mental fitness. With increased mental fitness, you’ll see a ripple effect of positive benefits.

HOW MUCH DO PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT COACHING COST?
A great and important question. Like any other coaching whether it is business coaching or personal life coaching is to deliver quality services to help the client get the results and outcome that they want. A better question to ask is “what will it cost me, my family, and my life if I do not invest in an accredited and qualified coach?”.
