Personal Growth

One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.
— Abraham Maslow

Personal Growth is about becoming everything you were meant to be. It is understanding that with time and appropriate nourishing, you will experience the natural process of growth and flourishing, like an acorn becoming a magnificent oak tree. This module will teach you how to nourish the seeds of immeasurable potential within yourself. You’ll learn how to apply the principles of neuroplasticity to build the brain you want. You’ll learn how to develop a growth mindset and how to leverage stress for personal growth. You’ll learn what positive psychology has revealed about effective goal setting and achievement, and the “secrets” for developing healthy habits and changing unhelpful ones. Finally, you’ll learn about the “special sauce” of success—developing a gritty persistence and passion to pursue the things that are most important to you.
