March was a great month for me, I feel like I’m starting to get a hang of this blogging thing. During this month, I’ve gotten half-way through Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. I know it’s a classic in the personal development field so I thought it was about time I read it. If there’s one thing that’s impacted me the most, it’s taking a proactive position in your life. Whatever is happening in my life, is my responsibility. So if there’s something I don’t like, I need to take action to change it. This is considered one of the simplest and biggest milestones in anyone’s personal development. I’ve realized the importance of it many times before, but I feel like it’s now taken on a deeper more internalized meaning for me. I feel like it’s finally become a habit. That’s what makes the difference. After all, we are creatures of habit are we not?

Here are some of the most popular articles from JM this month:
