On the last post I gave you my take on what I felt "spiritual" development was, and I related it to personal development or self development. My rationale was simple ... the more we develop our self and become closely attune to it .. the more "spiritual" we become. I offered three easy tips you can apply to your personal growth:
- Be Humble
- Cultivate Critical Thinking
- Connect With Nature
Self Development Tip #4: Workout For Fitness
You heard of the phrase, "Your Body is a Temple", right? I believe it's from the Bible, and there are similar references found in other writings as well. Even during those times, people understood the importance of keeping your body fit and clean, just like a "temple". If you don't take care of your body via regular exercise and just expose it to unnatural elements (e.g., excessive eating, drinking too much liquor, smoking), then over time your body will not have the strength, power, flexibility nor the energy to live a fulfilling, purposeful life.However, if you exercise regularly and take care your body, you position your self for good health and wellness. Being in such a state will make it that much easier for you to focus your energy and attention toward your very own personal growth.
Self Development Tip #5: Purpose-Driven Life
You don't want to fall into the trap of just going through the motions of personal development. Doing so will only stunt your growth since it's being done with no passion, no focus and moreover, no purpose. Could be just an ego thing, which again, is counter-productive.How can you apply yourself in your daily life if you had no focus, no goal, no purpose? Quick answer ... you can't. A purpose driven life is not that difficult to grasp. You just need to step back, take some time and internalize what it truly means to you. If those factors resonates with you, live it out ... every day of your life!
