Dedicate Time Towards Developing Yourself

“If you dedicate time to develop yourself it will move mountains for you.”

-Steve Weatherford

Our time is very precious. But more importantly it is what we do with that time is what is even more precious. Often times we think it is spending more time with friends or family which by all means is very important. However, it is just as important to spend that time with yourself and work in ways to continuously improve on who you are and what you can become. Former NFL player and podcast host Steve Weatherford mentions in today’s quote, the time you devote to developing yourself will move mountains for you in the long run. As the saying goes, you get out of life what you put into it. The relationship we have with ourselves sets the stage for all other things that are possible.

In life there will always be those mountains and/or obstacles in our way. But like one of author Ryan Holiday’s books says, the obstacle is the way. If we devote time and effort in ensuring that we are constantly growing mentally, spiritually and physically we will be able to overcome whatever challenge may lie before us. The more time we give, the more rewards we will receive overall. These rewards are not monetary but rather ones that are in my mind priceless because you can put a price tag on bettering yourself. So take the time is now to focus on becoming the change you wish to see the world.

What does this quote mean to you and how can you apply today’s message towards developing your relationship skills?
