Developing Your Growth Plan

I read this great reminder from John Maxwell about personal growth plans.  I agree that all these tasks are critical for leaders (and followers too):

To develop your own intentional growth plan, you must:   

  • Make a commitment to intentionally grow.   
  • Make your commitment public.   
  • Identify the areas you want to see growth in.   
  • Invest one hour a day in those areas.   
  • Invest one hour a week on reflection and writing about what you are learning.   
  • Share your growth with someone. 

The Idea of having a partner to share with is a great reminder.    

What do you think of Maxwell’s list?

About Tom Bolton

I'm a Husband and Dad, a former Enterprise Systems Manager at the City of Milwaukee, and a Disciple and Lay Servant at First United Methodist of West Allis. As I study the Bible, sometimes I feel moved to work through my understanding by writing poetry. I also am continuing to learn in my dialysis experience and pursuit of a kidney transplant. Sometimes I just feel like writing about something that grabs my attention too.
