It’s been three weeks since I started the What Is Personal Development group writing project.

Please be sure to contact me when your post is up: trackbacks don’t always work and sometimes your emails are the only way for me to know and be able to share your thoughts with others.

Thank you for submitting your entries!

This week saw only one post, but I like it very much:

There was also two definitions left in the comments area:

Andy from Ego Development said:

Personal development and investing in your person is the most profitable investment to do.
We all wish to grow satisfaction and success in our personal carrier , to reach happiness and peace in our personal and family life as everyone desire but few find it …
Personal development is hard work, so don’t look for shallow quick fixes. Instead here you will learn practical ideas to make important changes in your life, both big and small, so you can get your life on track and start living up to your true potential.

and Mike from Magic Hats said this

To me, personal development is:

If you ever wish that you could do something better, you need personal development.

If you ever wish you didn’t have a particular bad habit like biting your nails, over-eating or smoking cigarettes, you need personal development.

If you ever wish you had more nerve, courage or enthusiasm, you need personal development.

If you ever wish you didn’t get so nervous in certain situations or with certain people, you need personal development.

If you ever wish you could concentrate better or be more objective, you need personal development.

Thanks for these great definitions, guys!

Here are all the links to previous weeks:

The deadline for submitting your entries is October 31st, 2007. This means that I’ll keep posting all the submissions every Friday until the end of this month.

Thanks for your help and attention so far, and hope to see more of your submissions soon! The more people participate, the better definition for the personal development we will end up with.
