Your Best Life Begins With Personal Spiritual Growth

By Zoe Smith


How are you today? Is your life full of ecstasy and fun? Or is it depressing and tragic? If you are like most people, you are probably in the middle. You have a normal life and compared to many people in the rest of the world-you've got it pretty good. Now, is it a bad thing to want more? Of course not! Wanting more is not ingratitude- it is simply how we were created to be. So how do we attain more? The answer is by attending to our personal spiritual growth.

Right now you're probably scratching your head and asking what has personal development got to do with anybody's spiritual condition? If you want an amazing life, this is the secret.How else do you think ancient people (meaning people from earlier centuries not your grandparents) did so much astonishing accomplishments? There were no self-help programs before. What people used to empower them to turn the impossible to reality is by connecting with the greatest source of wealth-God Himself.

What are some things we can do for our spiritual personal development plan? The first thing you need to understand is that you are made deliberately and with a purpose. It doesn't matter what you think, you are not an accident. You have specific gifts and characteristics that will point you to your purpose. What inspires you and ignites your passion? What brings you happiness? Know yourself and you will begin to see the direction of your life.

Why is it important to know your purpose? When you know why you are here for, you will take out unnecessary things from your life. It's not just the bad things that need pruning away. Sometimes you need to give up the good things in order to make room for the best things. As you go along life, always keep a positive, healthy attitude. You will make mistakes and trials will come your way, but don't let that define you. Make these experiences your teacher and move on immediately.

Another thing that happens when you cultivate a positive attitude is that you are attracting more good to come in your life. It's true. You will find any effective personal development plan emphasizing the need to dwell on good and expect success. This is because thoughts and emotions are vibrations and this powerful energy will seek to find things of like resonance.

Jesus, the greatest spiritual leader who ever lived was known to have said, "It is better to give than to receive." It's true. Not often do people truly appreciate this truth but if you consciously apply it in your life, you will. Give to people generously with whatever you do have-your time or talent or treasure and it will return to you pressed down, shaken together and running over.

Gratitude is your connecting link to the Source of all supplies. Therefore, make it a point to look for things you can be grateful for in life. It is one of the most valuable things you can undertake in your journey of personal spiritual growth. Perceive the gifts that life is rewarding you with each day, and more of these blessings will come. Enjoy!
