As you will have read in the last few weeks firstly about ways of taking ownership

of personal development, then by setting SMART objectives and then how to get started

Here are two great ways to help you approach your goals.

Have a winners’ mindset

It’s never wrong to embrace and address your failures, that way you will learn from them. If you go into new experiences and learning situations with the mindset that you will achieve, you are more likely to do so. Carol Dweck, author of “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success”, says that successful people have a growth mindset and that they “believe that even basic talents and abilities can be developed over time through experience, mentorship, and so on. And these are the people who go for it. They’re not always worried about how smart they are, how they’ll look, what a mistake will mean. They challenge themselves and grow.”

Why not find someone who you know is always positive, work with them, find out how they keep that going and see if you can adapt it.  Remember you are going to achieve your goal, because it is your goal.

Learn from every experience you have

Try to take something from every personal encounter you have. Most people we come across day to day can teach us something that we can then apply in our own lives. At the simplest level, the friendly customer service you received when you picked up your morning coffee will probably have brightened your day. Can you then apply that attitude in your next encounter and make someone else similarly happy? Try also to be open to new opinions and new ways of doing things; you never know what you might learn.
