Ways to Spend Your Summer
As the calendar moves toward summer, we all start thinking about things like vacations, ways to keep the kids busy while they’re out of school, and… self-development. If you did a double take when you read the last item in this list, you’re probably not alone. But, the summer may offer a good opportunity to focus on ways to “get better” because many others are on those vacations I mentioned, so the demands of your work may have slowed, even if just a little.
Self-development can take many forms, and this issue has several ideas to consider. No matter what the self-development process looks like for you, finding ways to build skills – both the “hard” and “soft” ones – will pay dividends. There are MANY studies that tout the advantages of lifelong learning / self-development and most agree there are many benefits. Here are just a few:
• Assisting with success on the job.
• Keeping the brain healthy.
• Enhancing social connections.
• Adding to a sense of personal fulfillment.
• Improving quality of life.
Enjoy our June edition as you consider what self-development looks like for you.
