The self-help process also requires you to conduct most if not all of
improving processes alone. It will normally take much longer to accomplish objectives using
self-help process than it will if you use any of
other people supported improvement processes listed above. Using
self-help process normally results in incompletion.
It's no wonder that so many people do not finish
self-help process to achieve their original goals. It has been reported that
average person reads only 16 pages of a self-help book. The what,
why and
how are undoubtedly all provided for practically any subject, but
actual execution without
help of other people is much more difficult than it appears. It's apparent that people need other people to actually grow and improve as individuals.
Spiritual people focus on helping you to relate to another force or higher power outside yourself. They help you discover and follow a known or even new belief system of values to guide you in your moral and or spiritual actions. Usually, spiritual leaders are considered experts. They focus exclusively on you improving as a person within
structure of
spiritual beliefs followed. Priests, rabbis, pastors, or mullahs are considered spiritual leaders.
Teachers focus on providing you information, data or concepts. Teachers are experts in their field. You are responsible for absorbing
information provided, so you will become more knowledgeable. Teachers also do not necessarily focus on improving you as a person. Teachers will not do
learning for you.
Therapists focus on helping you overcome past problems that impede your ability to function in a normal day-to-day manner. Therapists direct you to revisit past events to discover and resolve conflicting issues that have burdened you. Therapists are experts in their field. Therapists direct their sole attention on you to resolve internal conflicts that will affect your personal improvement. A typical conflict therapists will help clients resolve is overcoming past mistreatment by their parents.
Trainers focus on teaching you how to perform something. Trainers are experts in their fields and teach you various processes, methods and/or skills, to do something in a predetermined manner. Trainers do not necessarily focus on you improving as a person. Trainers instruct you on what to do and how to do it. You might use a trainer to learn how to operate a particular computer program, operate an airplane, or hit a golf ball.
The Key to Human Improvement Success
The key is to pick
human improvement process that best fits your desired outcome and your situation. When you match
right improvement process with
right objectives, you will be surprised at how quickly and effectively you will achieve
improvement desired. People who use other people to improve, under
right circumstances, will improve themselves and their lives much easier and quicker than those who attempt to do it on their own.
Life is a journey and when you want to improve yourself, you will want to pick
right person who is performing
right improvement process to meet your objectives.
Enjoy
