Sean Tarpenning — Personal Development Tools — 3 Tools That Can Change Your Life!
Sean Tarpenning — On my ongoing quest for personal growth, I’m always on the lookout for new personal development tools that I can include in my broader goals program. Sometimes I come across tools that are completely ineffective but every now and then I find those rare gems that really accelerate my personal development. Here are just a few that I would like to share with you. See if you can incorporate these into your set of personal development tools.
1. Daily Exercise & Visualization.
This personal development tool is hands down the most effective tool that I have ever used. Listen, writing down your goals, and rarely reviewing them results in zero progress. To make sure you will hit your goal or visibly develop as a person you have to program your goals and personal development objectives into your mind every single day! If you really want to boost the effectiveness of this programming, do it first thing in the morning and couple it with a brisk outdoor exercise. Every morning I walk in the cool fresh air, clearly visualize my goals, and verbally reaffirm every emotion or characteristic I need in order to reach my goals (health, power, energy, leadership, strength, etc.). You will be amazed at how quickly this starts taking root in your subconscious and how you start displaying those characteristics automatically.
2. Peak Performance Hypnosis.
I’ll be honest with you. I always thought of hypnosis as those hokey stage acts where people start doing all sorts of silly things like barking or doing other embarrassing things. After developing a strong passion for improving myself and doing some research, I now see hypnosis as one of the best personal development tools. Many high-performing athletes use hypnosis to get into a peak performance state of mind and I’m sure you’ve heard the saying of getting your “game face” on. I strongly encourage you to take peak performance hypnosis seriously and consider integrating it into your personal development program.
3. Music.
Music is one of the best personal development tools. Seriously, think about how quickly music can change your state. I’m sure you have your favorites that you are too embarrassed to share, but I can remember immediately feeling like a champ when I would hear the theme from Rocky as a kid. On my daily walks and visualizations, I now listen to movie theme music that comes straight out of movies like Gladiator. As I’m doing my daily rituals to get into a winning state of mind, I listen to carefully selected music that slowly builds in intensity and peaks with a victorious song that makes me feel like I’m exploding with energy and confidence! The best part is this is one of those personal development tools that’s practically free.
These are my top three personal development tools and I hope they work for you.
