The heart of personal focus \u2013 the key to real success \u2013 and personal growth is found in asking yourself one simple question.  How do you feel right now? A simple question \u2013 the response to which will provide you with two key things \u2013 a major insight and a major opportunity.  Personal development or <a href='http:\/\/www.gurdy.net' target='_blank'>self improvement<\/a> is all down to awareness and, most importantly, self awareness.  In short, how you are feeling right now!  Realizing how you&#8217;re feeling is not the first step on the road to awareness, it&#8217;s the only step \u2013 assuming that you reflect on your findings in a focused and mindful way.<\/p>\n<p>OK then, stop for a moment and ask yourself the question.   Maybe you feel happy, at peace, relaxed, full of good health, full of the joys of Spring.   On the other hand, chances are that you&#8217;re feeling one or more of the following: <a href='http:\/\/www.gurdy.net' target='_blank'>stressed, annoyed<\/a>, tired, on edge, anxious, worried, hassled, confused, helpless, afraid&#8230;  The fact \u2013 and it\u2019s an actual psychological fact \u2013 is that, if you feel any of these things, you&#8217;re imprisoned in the land of make believe \u2013 your subconscious is making you believe that you&#8217;re feeling that way.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ve got to understand that it isn\u2019t your life that stresses you out or worries you \u2013 it&#8217;s what you think about your life at this moment in time that is doing the damage.  Pull yourself together and take control of your head \u2013 you&#8217;ll take control of what you\u2019re feeling and, as a result, you\u2019ll start influencing what\u2019s going on in your life.<\/p>\n<p>The funny thing is that if you actually open your eyes to what\u2019s really going on where you are and what you&#8217;re doing right now and compare reality with what you think you\u2019re feeling, it will dawn on you that the real world is very different from where you thought you were living.  At this moment, as you breathe in and out, you don\u2019t have any real or lasting worries.  Problems, like everything in life, simply pass on.  As a test of this, think about what you were annoyed or worried about this day last year \u2013 or even last month!  In this moment of insight you might also understand that there are things happening before your very eyes that you\u2019ve been unable to see because you were blinded by your own negative subconscious thoughts. We call these things opportunities \u2013 take off your blinkers and you&#8217;ll notice that they\u2019re all around you.<\/p>\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwisdomhealthprosperity.com%2Fselfimprovementmastery%2Fpersonal-development-%25e2%2580%2593-are-you-feeling-ok%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=true&amp;width=450&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;height=80\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:450px; height:80px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"><\/iframe><div class=\"addtoany_share_save_container\"><div class=\"a2a_kit addtoany_list\"><a class=\"a2a_dd addtoany_share_save\" href=\"http:\/\/www.addtoany.com\/share_save\"><img src=\"http:\/\/wisdomhealthprosperity.com\/selfimprovementmastery\/wp-content\/plugins\/add-to-any\/share_save_256_24.png\" width=\"256\" height=\"24\" alt=\"Share\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\nvar a2a_config = a2a_config || {};\na2a_config.linkname=\"Personal Development \u2013 Are You Feeling OK?\";\na2a_config.linkurl=\"http:\/\/wisdomhealthprosperity.com\/selfimprovementmastery\/personal-development-%e2%80%93-are-you-feeling-ok\/\";\na2a_config.onclick=1;\na2a_config.show_title=1;\n\/\/--><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/static.addtoany.com\/menu\/page.js\"><\/script>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Discover that there is no great undiscovered secret about personal development and self awareness.
