Do You Have a Personal Growth Plan?
Proverbs 24:3-7 says, "A house is built by wisdom, and it is established by understanding; by knowledge the rooms are filled with every precious and beautiful treasure. A wise warrior is better than a strong one, and a man of knowledge than one of strength."
This passage stresses the importance of growing in wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Success comes from knowledge and the right application of that knowledge. If you want to become more effective in any area of your life, you have to increase your knowledge in that area. You must keep learning. Hopefully you don't think that you are sufficiently "educated" simply because you have a diploma or a degree on the wall. Your education should never stop.
So what's your plan to keep learning and growing? Consider developing a personal growth plan -- a plan to set aside regular time for the purpose of reading and learning.
The following is my personal growth plan. It's nothing impressive, but it does ensure that I keep learning and growing. Feel free to copy or adapt it to your needs.
