As a personal development coach, I believe in continuously sharpening my skills and staying current—not just to serve my clients better, but to grow as a person, too.
Every Friday, I attend a standing personal development mentorship group. Today, to my surprise, we had a guest speaker. His insights were both timely and transformational.
He reminded us that many people set goals they genuinely want—but never reach them. Eventually, they give up. Not because they didn’t care, but because they lost clarity or momentum.
As coaches, he said, we need to model the personal development we teach. One simple but powerful habit he recommended was this:
Every day, ask yourself two questions:
- What did I do well today?
- What did I learn today?
That struck a chord. I journal regularly—but I usually ask myself those questions annually, monthly, or weekly. Today, I realized the impact would be even greater if I asked them daily.
Starting now, daily journaling—with those two questions—will be a non-negotiable part of my routine.
Because when I grow, my clients grow too.
YOUR TURN: What did you learn today?
