At www.personaldevelopmentforum.com you can find our ezine that publishes several articles on a monthly basis. The Regulars section accesses written works on various, ongoing themes, while the Features section covers special reports, such as interviews. Check out the Free Stuff that we provide for programs and help on pointing your life in the direction you want to go in and discover techniques to help you get there. Finally, be sure to sign up for our newsletter to keep you informed of updates and relevant news.
This site is concerned with the promotion of the whole person: physically, mentally, emotionally, financially and spiritually. This can be achieved entirely by the individual through self-help or with the aid of a life coach (success coach) who will help a client to create a plan for development and thereafter execute it (for a free personal development plan click here ). A plan involves setting personal goals for development and growth and then taking the necessary action to achieve those targets. At the heart of personal development is the idea of changing one’s habits. By establishing habits that ensure success, success is sure to follow. By indulging in destructive habits growth and development are curtailed.This website presents a wealth of free self-help information that is being continually updated and added to. The ezine provides a variety of articles concerned with personal growth and cultivating self-awareness. The Regulars section has detailed, ongoing information offered by experienced commentators in the field of self-actualization. Shamou’s Words of Wisdom provides insights and suggestions for application related on Tony Robbins’ Awaken the Giant Within. Or read Charlie Badenhop’s articles on Seishindo , an holistic approach to health that blends elements of Aikido, neuro-linguistic programming, Ericksonian psychology, cybernetics and Self Relations therapy. The Features section highlights leaders in the field of self-help and personal awareness. Some of those featured include Sandy Brewer (author of Pursuit of Light), Jan Ruhe (millionaire business woman and author of 12 books) and Bridgette L. Collins (fitness expert and author of Imagine Living Healthier). The Mentors section includes work by such luminaries as Jim Rohn , Brian Tracy , and Jamie McIntyre . We also have sections on retreats and offer free personal growth books , such as Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel and As A Man Thinketh by James Allen.
