What type of environment do we need in order to grow? It is said that ‘growth thrives in conducive surroundings. If we want to experience personal growth, we must evaluate our environment and make the changes that support our growth goals. The things around us affect what’s going on inside of us, and growth will only happen when we make it welcome. So, how do we make growth welcome? A growth environment is a place where…
– Others are ahead of you.
– You are continually challenged.
– Your focus is forward.
– The atmosphere is affirming.
– You are out of your comfort zone.
– You wake up excited.
– Failure is not your enemy.
– Others are growing.
– People desire change.
– Growth is modeled for you and expected of you.
These characteristics combine into just the right mix of challenge and support to foster your development. They are the perfect recipe for growth!’ (J.Maxwell) Are you currently in this environment, or do you need to make a move?
