Personal Development Mastery: Clarity for Midlife Professionals in Transition #375 What to do if you want to grow, but your circle has a fixed mindset - something often seen in personal development.
If you are someone who is on a journey of personal growth, but most people around you prefer to settle, then today's episode is for you.
During the interviews I did last year, I asked some of my guests a question that was put to me by one of the listeners, Alice. In today's episode you can hear 5 of the previous podcast guests answer that question.
Their answers were not published in the respective episodes, so this is the very first time they are being shared!
And the question was: What would you say to someone who wants to grow, but most of the people around them (their peers) have quite a fixed mindset, preferring to settle rather than grow?

In the podcast episode, 5 guests explore the theme of personal growth and its impact on relationships with loved ones who may not be on the same journey. They emphasise the importance of honouring one's own path to self-improvement while allowing others to progress at their own pace, without judgement or pressure. By embodying positive change and happiness, one can inadvertently inspire those around them to seek their own growth.
The guests offer practical advice, such as creating a supportive environment, whether through moving away from negativity or surrounding oneself with inspiring literature and like-minded individuals, to reinforce personal development. Additionally, they highlight the significance of choosing who to spend time with carefully and protecting one's mindset from the limitations others may try to impose, thereby ensuring one's growth and resilience remain unhampered by external influences.
