Striving to do better and becoming the best version of one’s self defines personal growth. Practice they said, makes for progress and then perfection. It’s a word of wisdom.
You don’t wish to remain the same place forever, that is exactly the reason you have to give up everything that weighs you down. Remember, the shell must break before the bird can fly.
Do you know that ships are safe in harbour? But it is not the best place to be. Smooth roads don’t make skilled drivers. Strive to be the best.
Why do people move to High school after their basic education and then to the university afterwards, or one decide to go for further studies after his undergraduate studies. It’s a strive for growth.
Why do people pay for online courses or pay to learn and acquire skills, it may be for different reasons though but it is generally for growth, to be better than what he or she used to be. That’s the simple definition of growth.
Will you be comfortable settling for less? Will you be comfortable being a mediocre? If the answer is no, rise up and build yourself to that person you want to meet in the future. The ball is in your court.

The only thing constant in life is change. Life is organic and dynamic. Don’t sit down and fold your hands, strive for perfection. If you do, you will never remain the same person.

Have that positive mindset and work on yourself. Awaken the giant in you. Many of us don’t even know we have potentials, we don’t know what we are capable of doing until we decide to break out of that box inhibiting us. Aim for the stars, if you fail, at least you will reach the clouds . My pen pal would want to ask, “What if one aim for the moon?
Make that choice today, choice of personal growth and development. You are not created to be an average, don’t settle for less. You can achieve whatever you set your mind to. Have that in mind.
Growth comes with pains, sacrifices, efforts, consistency and perseverance but the results that come with it will be truly worth the while. I wish you all the best.
