Self Growth
Chioma Ken-Owotor
Self growth could also mean self improvement.
C.R. Lawton said -
"Unless you try to do something
beyond what you have mastered,
you will never grow."
Questions???
• What is it?
• Why do I need to bother?
• Why should I improve myself?
• Mull over the benefits of becoming the new you versus staying the same.
Self growth!!!!
• Self-growth is accepting yourself the way you are and trying to improve to
your full potential.
How do I start?
• Take an inventory of the skills you already possess
You already have many positive qualities
Even if you are only managing a household, you will have some of the
following skills. Add your professional and other skills to the list and you will
be amazed at your own inventory of skills. From there, it is easy to improve
upon one area at a time.
• Managing a Household:
Skills required to manage a home are indisputably, as the term suggests,
managerial. This is what makes them so important and potentially useful as
employment skills. Managing a household successfully combines the
complexities of:
- leadership
- time management
- forward planning
- financial control
- organizational and administrative skills
and most important of all: a wide range of communication skills, i.e.
- listening carefully
- speaking effectively face-to-face and over the phone
- negotiating and diplomacy
- persuading and commanding
- the ability to formulate and write official letters
There are three types of positive attitude
What do you want to improve?
• I don’t need to improve anything...??
• I am fine the way I am...??
• I know everything....??
Dig deeper
What one thing can I improve about myself?
What one action can I take now?
• learn something new
• patience
• speaking skills
• writing skills
• exercise
• gain clarity & stay focused
What is more important to me at
this time?
Areas that I can improve about my self
• Financial matters
• Physical health
• Relationship
• Fun and adventure
• Professional skills
• Mental knowledge and learning
• Self-help, character, spirituality and emotions
How to improve self!
• Pay attention to the positive qualities you already possess
• Cut out poor habits and cultivate better habits
• Avoid negative people (You are the average of the 5 people you spend the
most time with)
• Write a letter to your future self
• Ask for feedback and acknowledge your flaws
• Commit yourself to personal growth
