How can you measure progress in your PD plan?

It's important to keep track of your personal growth journey, or you won't know if you're heading in the right direction. When you write down your goals and regularly check your progress, it makes it easier to achieve them. And don't forget to celebrate the small successes along the way.

Medir o progresso em seu plano de Desenvolvimento Pessoal (DP) é como embarcar em uma jornada de autodescoberta. Imagine que você está criando um mapa de tesouros pessoais. Primeiro, você precisa definir objetivos que s?o como destinos brilhantes no mapa. Esses objetivos devem guiar seu caminho, sendo específicos, mensuráveis, alcan?áveis, relevantes e com um prazo definido, como o X do mapa marca o local onde você quer estar.

Start by defining what you want and understanding why you want it. Be mindful of answers like "I want to be better than such and such". Once you've done that, ask yourself how will you know when you've achieved it and break it down. Set yourself some small, defined short term goals and some more highlevel medium-long term goals. The idea is to create steps that you can actually climb. Review your plan regularly, adapt it if your goals have changed and set yourself new short term smart goals

Investing in your development is the most essential investment you can make. Success is not out there somewhere; it's inside you, waiting to take action. The Cambridge Institute of Technology says that 85% of success is driven by psychology or mindset. This means that managing your mind is the key to your development not the To Do list. With a 10-minute-a-day mindset dump or thought practice you can retrain your brain to lead yourself first to lead others with impact. Get your pen and notebook and audit your day: what worked, what didn't, and what you want to do differently. This audit practice is aimed to diagnose, not blame and shame. Using what you want to do differently with one thing, you create more agency for everything you do!

When choosing indicators, make sure they encourage the right long term habits. For example, if you set an indicator of lose 15kg in 2 months, you might be inclined to fast for 30 days to achieve it. That might give you the result but it might not be in the best way for you. Maybe a better one would be i want to loose 15kg by exercising daily and eating healthy

This also could be gathering data from those close to you to validate the areas you are thinking about. I don’t mean asking them general questions like if they agree or what do they think you should do. I mean specifically - so for example if you are wanting to improve your collaboration- then a specific question you might ask is - hey I am trying to ensure I listen to all the voices in the room, do you think you can point out when I am not exhibiting this.. make sure this is from a colleague or team member that will speak up and will feel safe to do so. It’s a great way to calibrate and gain other perspectives.
