The Perfect Personal and Professional Development Model
In in 1986 Unitarian Minister Robert Fulghum wrote a book titled “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten.” The book stayed on the New York Times Best Sellers List for 2 years.
The basic premise of the book (which is a collection of essays) can be stated as “live a balanced life.”
This may be the most profound book on personal and professional development ever written and every personal and profession trainer, consultant and success coach should read the first essay at the very least.
The tenets of the title essay are that every day we should:
- share
- be kind to one another
- clean up after yourself
- work
- play
- learn
It is about the best recipe for personal and organizational growth I’ve ever seen.
Sometimes simple is best
