As you grow older, do you think you will be pleased with how you have lived your life? Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to proudly tell the world about what you have achieved? Well, if this is what you want, then you better start achieving personal growth as early as now.

Signs of Growth

How do you know that your life is going in the right path? Sometimes in your journey, it is easy for you to lose track of things, but you need to find a way to recollect and see how well or how badly you are doing. Being aware of your pace of growth and development is important because awareness is key when change is necessary.

Here are some of the significant growth signs you need to look out for:

• Successful relationships. What kind of relationships do you have? Are you able to keep good and genuine relationships or are you still trying to determine who your true friends are? Do you have trouble keeping relationships? Do you have problems dealing with people, altogether, both in the personal and professional level? The truth is that relationships are tough to handle. Some people will be experts on it but not everyone will know how to do things right.
• Survival against your struggle. Struggles come, and no matter how hard you try to avoid it, it will come to haunt you and bring you down. How you react to struggles will define the kind of person that you truly are. Are you someone who works with grace, even when under pressure or do you lose control? If you want to be able to survive life’s challenges, you must have the will, the determination, and control over your thoughts and actions.
• High self-esteem. Not a lot of people have true confidence in themselves. Many will need a little push from friends and family, and others will require constant reminders to believe in their own capabilities. If you have true confidence and belief in what you can do and achieve, then you have truly grown into the individual that you ought to become. You do not need to seek the approval of others. You do not care about what others say about you. You are whole and no one can bring you down.
• One is complete when all aspects of his or her life are satisfied. You know that one has achieved the true level of growth that they aspire, when they got to where they ought to be, without needing to compromise anything. You are complete when you are satisfied, and you are satisfied when you are truly happy.

Physical growth, which is the more obvious kind of growth, is easy to measure. What is difficult to measure is personal growth, and it is the one that truly matters. Personal growth is important because it will help you achieve great things in life. More so, it is the one that defines you, for who you truly are.
