The Personal Development / Learning Cycle | Learn This — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 03:21:38 +0000

[...] Personal development and realizing how impacting its cycle can be has become a huge proponent in my life to take on whatever challenges I face and apply my knowledge in order to let it shape me and things in my life. You can do the same and allow yourself to change through a learning or personal development cycle. It takes a long time to understand the cycle through trial and error and its much more effective to have models for things that can be utilized to gain the most from it. The same is true with the personal development cycle if you understand the whole cycle to be able to recognize it, and all then enable it to occur, you can take on new challenges and shifts in your life much more easily. I have always loved change and learning new things, so this has become much more of a passion for me, but the cycle can build that passion for anyone who recognizes the value in changing themselves for the better. Without it, you can easily fall to becoming very conditioned by people around you who are afraid of change and don’t think they can learn things well and you can easily become complacent and stuck within a very small comfort zone.

Wow, those are quite some points you make. I couldn’t even begin to answer your three questions at the end of your piece, Mike. I completely get the exponential period of growth, part. In the words of Nelson Mandela: “There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
We completely change the wiring of our brain and change every cell of our body with decisions and conscious choices: “These cells are “little lives,” and manifest mental power and faculty. They perform their particular functions, and live, grow, reproduce themselves, and act just as do the tiny forms of animal life at the bottom of sea—the latter being but little more than single cells, or cell-groups. The possession of memory on the part of the cells of organic matter, is an accepted scientific fact.” -William Walker Atkinson [http://williamwalkeratkinsonmindpower.com]
Who knows the extent to which what we learned, what we took on board and what we decided, changed the world and our lives? How could I even begin to measure such a thing, other than in the way suggested by Mandela.
Cheers, Thea
