We talk about growth here a lot on this blog and that is because you should always strive to grow and learn in life. One of the ways you can work on your growth journey is through self-development. This is the committed effort to acquire new skills. This can seem like a daunting task to undertake on your own, but don’t worry, IMPACT is here to help you on your journey. Here are 3 ways you can work on self-development.
- Join a book club
The oldest trick in the book to learn new things is to read. However, if you’re not used to reading independently, this habit can easily fall to the wayside. With a book club you’ll have accountability buddies to ensure that you finish any book you start. Not to mention the added benefits of camaraderie, easier comprehension, and retention of information.
- Volunteer at your local library
Your local library is filled with many activities that you may not be aware of just yet. For example, some libraries host job fairs, author meet and greets, and adult education classes. By volunteering you can get first hand knowledge of any event that can help you on your self-development journey. You would also be helping an important public resource by volunteering your time and efforts.
- Enroll in an IMPACT course
IMPACT is an e-learning website that helps a wide variety of people to improve their lives through education. Its courses focus on transforming the lives of teens, parents, older and young adults. IMPACT offers courses related to parenting, skill building, productivity and more. Choosing any one of these is sure to get you started on the right path.
- Act like a child again
Scream into an empty field, give into that impulsive thought, jump up and down when you get excited. You’ll find that acting as unbridled as a child can help you rediscover who you are. By indulging in these instincts you can clear your mind and understand what you truly want in life.
Throughout your journey it is important to remember that you may fail and fall time and time again. However, you must also remember that you have the ability to get back up and succeed after your missteps. You can always work on your self-development and grow as a person. This journey can seem hard, but with these 4 ideas you can tackle the road ahead with ease. Check out our offerings on www.impactelearn.com to learn more about this topic!
