Was machst du, wenn du deinen Fortschritt in der persönlichen Entwicklung beurteilen möchtest?

Establish specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound goals. These goals provide clarity and direction for your personal development journey. For example, if you aim to improve your public speaking skills, set a goal to speak at least once a month at local events within the next six months.

While there is a lot of emphasis on how to set your goals and measure it which is absolutely crucial, I'd take a step back and say it's equally or more important to know what you should be working on and why now? Why is it important for you to work on a particular goal you've selected. Is it something you should really focus all your attention on? When you're clear about why a particular goal is important and how it's going to help you, your motivation to get it done is taken care of. When your "Why" is clear the how you define your goal makes a lot of difference, make it as personalized as possible, not a random generic goal, that you'd care less about. Your goal should excite you.

To set short term and long term goals, weekly reflections (journaling), asking for feedback, and strive to be better 1% everyday

Imagine you're embarking on a journey with a map. SMART goals are like destination points on that map. They give you clear directions on where you want to go and how to get there. They make your path tangible, measurable, and realistic, allowing you to track progress and stay focused amidst distractions.

Track your progress. We often forget how far we have come when only looking forward. I personally keep all my old journals as they show the wider picture of a personal journey 😎

Regularly engage in self-reflection to evaluate your progress. Journaling, meditation, or using self-assessment quizzes can help you gain insights into your strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement. Reflect on your experiences, challenges faced, and lessons learned.

Think of self-reflection as taking a moment to sit with yourself, like having a heart-to-heart conversation with your closest friend. It's about pausing the hustle and bustle of life to understand your thoughts, feelings, and actions. Journaling, mindfulness, or simply pondering in quiet moments help you navigate your inner landscape, uncovering insights and truths about yourself.

Picture yourself as a piece of clay sculpted by various hands. Feedback from others is like those shaping hands it helps refine your edges and smooth out rough spots. While sometimes it may feel uncomfortable or challenging to hear, constructive criticism and encouragement from trusted sources provide valuable perspectives, guiding you towards growth and improvement.

En fait, je suis d’accord mais cela dépend à qui on demande. Un des plus grands axes de progrès est de savoir évaluer les personnes qui nous entourent. Certains n’ont pas de valeur objective, d’autres nous renvoient leur propre peur. Leur demander un avis peut fausser l’image que l’on a de soi si la personne choisie est dans le jugement

Imagine flipping through the pages of your life storybook. Each chapter represents a phase of your journey filled with triumphs, challenges, and lessons learned. Comparing yourself to yourself means acknowledging how far you've come since the last chapter, recognizing your growth, and setting intentions for the next chapter. It's a journey of self-discovery and self-empowerment, free from the distractions of comparing with others.

When you set an achievable goal that excites you enough to work towards, then all you have to do is to take one step at a time and keep moving forward towards your desired outcome. You need to keep going even if you do not see any immediate result, stay resilient and focused. With every step you take towards your desired goal, you're getting closer to success. Do not forget to turn and take a look at how far you've come. Celebrate your small victories, success is all about the journey so have fun all along and appreciate yourself enough for every successful step you've taken towards your goal with consistency and dedication.

Compare yourself to yourself yesterday and try to be 1% better every day. Those small improvements add up over time, and, before you know it, you will be ahead of pretty much everyone else, even though you only compared to yourself. Keeping your eye on the ball always pays off long term.

Se comparer à soi même ou avoir un regard sur sa propre évolution. Se comparer induit une notion de compétition. Je préfère ainsi parler de notion de regard sur soi, un regard critique qui permet de valider le chemin parcouru en validant que pour une même action par exemple, on a eu une réaction différente

Non seulement célébrer des victoires mais également les partager avec ceux qui vivent avec nous au quotidien. Parler des choses qui vont bien, ancrera l’étape que nous venons de franchir

Picture yourself crossing the finish line of a marathon, feeling the rush of accomplishment and pride. Celebrating wins is like fuel for your soul, no matter how small. It energizes you to keep pushing forward. Whether completing a project, overcoming a fear, or mastering a new skill, each win is a testament to your effort and dedication. So go ahead, pat yourself on the back and savour the moment!

I will involves in setting clear goals, tracking achievements, reflecting on my experiences, seeking feedback from others, and adjusting strategies accordingly, so that it will keeps my record insights and milestones along the way.

Be kind to yourself and give yourself a little time to let the progress unfold. Personal development is not a sprint, it´s a marathon and most likely you´re never done with it. Consider it a lifelong journey of self-exploration, learning and approach it with an open mindset.

Hay que asumir que el desarrollo personal es un camino que dura toda la vida, con la satisfacción de que cada etapa del camino nos trae una mayor comprensión y amor, por nosotros mismos, y eso hace que cambiemos nuestra visión del mundo y las personas, hacia posiciones más comprensivas y ecológicas

One of the biggest indicators in your growth is how you feel. What is your emotional base line? If you notice that in your day you fall back to stress, anger, fear etc then you know something isn't working. But if you notice that throughout your day you fall back to gratitude, peace, joy, then you know something is working. As humans it is completely normal to feel the whole range of emotion, however we all have a baseline and that baseline is a phenomenal indicator or where someone is in their personal development journey.
