The Power of Self-Development: Why Don’t They Listen To Me
Discovering the power of self-development and the struggles of sharing it with loved ones: From resistance to ignorance, trying to understand the barriers.
A Tiny Bit Of Background
When I was 19, there was a massive shift in my life. A personal shift that is, a change within me. I was in a bad situation psychologically because of college (I wanted to drop out but society’s pressure to stick to it was killing me) and I got attracted to some YouTube videos that made me feel better.
They motivated and empowered me, making me feel like my problems had a solution and proving I wasn’t the first one in that position.
Do you know those 5 or 10-minute videos with a combination of a good speech and background music, all bending into a motivating sensation?
These are the videos that introduced me to self-development.
Now, almost 7 years later, I’m still astonished every time I reflect upon the massive change it brought to my personality.
I am a new person, and I’m extremely proud because it has all been conscious. Everything I’ve become hasn’t been by casualty.
