I was at a powerful and life changing event in Las Vegas over the weekend where I had the pleasure of
hearing from and speaking with Jairek Robbins (the son of Tony Robbins) and it was absolutely amazing!
As he spoke he gave the most simple definition of what Personal Development really is and it made a great impact on me and how I look at everything I do. I don’t have the exact words, but he said something to the effect of, Personal Development is getting a new perspective on something that already exists.
Seems like a simple concept, but it is deep and really hits the nail on the head…
For example, some people go through life feeling that money is evil and that there is something noble about being poor. To me this is sad because how much more good can people do in life when they aren’t immersed in worries about how to pay the bills!
So change you paradigm of though to money being energy that allows you to help more people and have more influence to help others and all of the sudden money isn’t some “evil villain” but a power for good!
Do you think that with this mindset that money will become of more importance to you and you can get past this block that keeps you from growing wealthy? I know for me personally this type of thinking has made a world of difference in the way I look at and attract money into my life through my personal efforts.
So all personal development really is is the ability to develop your thought and habits to align you with abundant life, love, success, relationships, income, or anything else you desire to better in your life!
So immerse yourself in changing your paradigm of thinking and your actions through the study and application of personal development and you will begin to see a rapid transformation in you and how others around you perceive you!
To You!

Hey John,
Jairek spoke this weekend at live the dream event in Orlando Florida, and he killed it again, just like you said, the truth is that personal development is a conscious action, evidenced by this chip off the old block, Jariek. People just don’t take enough time to work on their own value, and then they are surprised when they get crappy results. Glad you are working on yourself.. keep it up.
