So many times, in life we use the excuse “I don’t have enough time.”  Ultimately, we put aside our own personal development. The most important key to your successful growth is your own sense of personal responsibility for your development.  Here are 5 steps to help proactively drive your development and establish a cycle of continuous learning. Following these steps will lead to elevating your growth. Development is not a one-time event, it is ongoing.

  • Focus on priorities: Identify your critical issues and goals
  • Implement something every day: Stretch your comfort zone daily
  • Reflect on what happens: Extract maximum learning from every experience
  • Seek feedback and support: Learn from others’ ideas and perspectives
  • Transfer learning into the next steps: Adopt a plan for continued learning
 
Elevating your growth has many ingredients that play a big part towards being successful. Are you Sincere? Tough? Practical? Do you stand out? Do you get results? Are you known for something and have a value statement that represents you in your conversations? 

 Here are 10 Steps to Elevate your Growth:
  • See yourself at the next level: Do part of your supervisors’ job, look at the big picture, get out of the box and know what your supervisor thinks of you
  • Be an Expert: Practice, practice, practice! Be effective at speaking, know the numbers driving the business
  • Master the business drivers: Operations, Marketing, Development, Training
  • Play 1st String not 2nd string: Don’t lose site of goals, sell yourself, don’t always rely on an easy way in
  • Have outside mentors and learning: Read a lot, learn the art of asking questions, be around different people from different parts of the country and world
  • Master the 5-minute impression: You have a very small window when you meet someone for the first time, do you have energy? Enthusiasm? Do you compliment?
  • Be a kid’s coach: Do you give more than your getting? Have compassion for people? Give back to the community? Take time to explain?
  • Be a dare devil: Do something exciting, adventurous, are you exciting to work with?
  • Have fun:  This will show in your body language
  • Join the circus: Think about all the different characters in a circus and don’t be afraid to try something new or step out of your comfort zone

Development is not a onetime event, it is ongoing. Challenge yourself daily to devote time to your most important asset: YOU!
