Mostly, personal growth is the result of the unfolding of your life, the sum total - ever changing - of the accumulated wisdom of your experiences.

Sometimes, though, we don't make that easy.

It's not that we don't want to grow, not that we don't long for change; it is rather that we have ideas - ego based, of course - that stand up and demand to be counted and so we end up getting in our own way.

Be on the look out for that today. You know there's a flow; try to go with it, or at least try to avoid swimming upstream. It'll be easier in the long run.
