Combining All Personal Development Ideas

[Tony19]

Personal Development is a very long term and complex endeavor. There is just so much that could be done to change and improve our lifestyle, which is great. However, I've been getting a bit overwhelmed by all the concepts, always having the urge to fit something into a model. I don't want to be sitting all day making models and not actually doing anything productive, but I also feel like with so much information available, that I can develop a really effective strategy to digest all this material efficiently. Any suggestions on how to approach this without constantly feeling overwhelmed? Thanks in advance.

@Tony19 You eat an elephant one piece at a time. What's the rush? Get comfy and dig in. This is the whole point of your 70 or so years here in this life. There is nowhere to get to. So enjoy the process of research and discovery.

Just balance your theory with practice.

A combined, holistic understanding of all the concepts will take you at least 10 to 20 years. And that's assuming your doing it actively every day, and are wise enough to avoid most of the traps of this work.

Thanks Leo. I have realized that I needed to change my mentality to "I have to master everything or else I will fail" to "This is an opportunity for me to improve myself,  one area at a time"
