Wednesday Word - Personal - 1/20/2016

Wednesday Word:

Personal


Merriam-Webster Definition:

  • Of, relating to, or affecting a particular person. 
  • Sometimes relating to an individual or an individual's character, conduct, motives, or private affairs, often in an offensive manner. 

Quintessential Voyage Definition:

  • Holding yourself accountable for the achievement your own goals, dream, or vision.
  • Working on something based on your particular self, acknowledging everyone is doing the same.

Our definition was a bit harder to put down as an actual definition than I had originally thought. The point of this word is to not take things from others, especially in business, as personal attacks or decisions based upon who you are as a person. In all reality, we don't always care about other people, we tend to think about the personal good before the common good. 

Take your own decisions personally. Put work in for your career goals, your dream physique, etc. Put yourself in your own spotlight and exhibit what you can really do. If someone at work chooses not to give you that promotion, don't take it personal, because it probably wasn't based on anything personally against you, but rather take it as an opportunity to learn and grow and reshape your vision of where you want to be. I challenge to make to take yourself serious.

Take your decisions personally. See what happens once you begin to hold yourself accountable for you and your well being. Cease to believe that you need others to help you along the way. Believe in yourself and what you can and will do, you will be in disbelief at who will invest in you once you do so. If you don't fully commit yourself and what you desire to be, you won't achieve it.
I can vouch for this and the process included, personally.
