Brian Tracy has been one of the mentors I have read and learned from over the years. He puts an emphasis on investing in yourself. He suggests putting aside a percentage of your income and time, like ten percent, and invest it in personal growth. We tend to spend a lot of money on things that can be lost or broken, but our minds go with us everywhere, all the time. It makes sense to invest a steady portion of our income on learning and growing.
In this video he explains personal growth in greater detail.
New Habit: Find a place to set aside the money you will use for investing in your growth and learning. It might be an envelope in your office or you could open a new account. Don’t forget to pay yourself each time you do your bills.
Journal: Start creating a list of the things you will spend your self-investment money on. The list could include online courses, weekend seminars or workshops, educational trips, or books and videos.
