Is Personal Development a Waste of Time?

January 27th, 2009

Professor Charcot (left) of Paris' Salpêtrière...[Image via Wikipedia]The title of this blog post might shock you a bit.

Maybe it even offends you.

But this is what some people say so let’s take a look at it and see if it has merit.

There are successful businessmen (and women) who have everything they want and their position in a nutshell is this: “Don’t waste your time with that ‘warm and fuzzy, feel good’ stuff. This world is about setting your mind to something and then moving your arms and legs to get it done. Personal development products are a waste of time.”

Really, this is what they say!

And so maybe you’re putting in all this effort; going to Tony Robbins seminars, buying CDs on hypnosis, and setting goals every January 1st. Meanwhile, you still aren’t where you want to be and these guys are rolling in money and success.

Makes you stop and wonder: is personal development a waste of time?

How else can you explain it? Someone who puts no attention on self improvement and still has success?

Well before you run to the closet and put all your Brian Tracy programs up for auction on eBay, consider this:

Maybe some people ARE studying personal development but they just call it something else.

You see, these same people, if you take a closer look at them, I’m betting you will see that they ARE studying personal development!

If you ask one of them how they grow their business so quickly, they may say something like, “well I take quick, decisive action.” Everyone knows you have to do that to be successful.”

Oh really! And so what makes you so confident in your quick decisions and that they are good ones?

And then they may say something like, “Because I pay attention to small details and I trust my gut.”

Aha! So what they are REALLY saying is that they have practiced the art of listening to their intuition!!!

… personal development, my friend. It’s just being labeled something else. It’s still personal development.

We all need it: If you don’t practice helping yourself, then how the heck are you going to be able to help anyone else along the way? It’s the gatekeeper to where you want to get to.

On a similar note, some say that hypnosis = hogwash.

Now that’s funny because every time I turn on the tv the media is hypnotizing me with their preselected messages.

Be careful of the man or woman who tells you hypnosis is bunk… they may be the one reaching for your credit card next!

So for the record, I am NOT one of the people who is anti- self improvement. In fact, that’s why I’m now going to share a unique website link with you that will not only help you AND others, but in this site are HUNDREDS of Self Help gifts and product downloads all with one aim:

Goal-setting, hypnosis, persuasion, success mindset, unleashing your mindpower – these are just a few of the numerous topics waiting for you inside the site.

Many of these gifts are normally sold on the internet for between $27 and $97 and with over 300 of them being offered here FREE, this obviously is a BIG DEAL.

They won’t be there forever so take 5 minutes and go there now.

P.S. I touched upon helping others. Since you are getting access to hundreds of gifts and have to pay nothing, all I ask is that you forward this blog post to 3 people you know who might also benefit by getting special access to this site. (Wild Stuff!)
