# 1- What holds people back in their lives when it pertains to personal growth?

What holds people back in their lives when it comes to personal growth……. they often think their lives are ok just the way they are, some people are afraid of change and/or are not equipped with the support it may take to move into some new way of being or attitude change.

There may be an issue with trust meaning some people may not trust that they can change and/or trust others enough to ask for the help and support they may need to delve into personal growth. There are people who are resistant because they are afraid of what they will find and are not aware that there is a solution to what they may find.

Some are satisfied with life as it is and don’t see the point. Some are thinking they don’t have time and energy or are not making the time or the effort for growth. There are some who may have conditioning that says personal growth is for the weak.

For me, I have a mindset of knowing the value I have received from personal growth and that propels me to further my exploration into growth. I have been involved in personal growth since I was a senior in high school. I read several books that really created the desire to grow by filling me with stimulating incite in areas I was struggling such as periodic depression and addictive eating or as some call it emotional eating.

The books that started me on my growth path were Wayne Dyers book “Your Erroneous Zones, Sugar Blues, Fat is a feminists Issue, and Siddhartha. I have traveled many roads to create personal growth since then and will continue on my growth path. It continues to be worth it. It is my honor to assist people who want to be on a growth path but don’t want to go it alone!
