Instrumental Investment; How You Can Be Resonating Your Way To Success Through Personal Growth



Read More: Personal Development

Some might say they don’t need to worry about personal development. They’re already developed or they just don’t have the time.

But when you think about it, you’re probably doing a bit of something from time to time that you can qualify as personal growth.

And, if you are stagnating in some areas then you should think about the results of this inaction.

One of the best things you can do for your mind to stay sharp and your body to remain healthy is to continue growing as long as you live.

In all areas of your life, from physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, to your relationships and family life, you can probably use at minimum some adjustments and improvements.

When you take the time to focus on yourself, you become more confident and happy, and as a result, more successful in life and in business....

It occurred to me that my aging and crippled guitar was quite the analogy as it’s tone and beautiful resonance which I’d grown accustom to for the majority of my life was in jeopardy of being lost forever. It was dying.

Yes, it had actually come to the point that it was no longer playable. No matter how I tuned the strings, they could not be in tune in all areas of the fretboard.

Yes it would have ultimately even been forever unrepairable, had I not decided to make an investment in it. I considered giving up on it and just looking for a replacement, since the repair was going to cost almost as much as it is worth.

But I knew that a replacement would be impossible to find, even in a very expensive guitar. For it was its age and character that made it unique and beautiful.

Just like each and every one of us. We all have our talents and we owe it to ourselves to appreciate and give credit to ourselves enough so that we’re motivated to put our efforts toward improving ourselves in any way possible so that we are the best that we can be.

Vicki, So Beautiful!!!

Hey Vicki, I think this was beautiful and admirable to sing and play. I applaud you. I also want to say you have great message here. When you started playing and singing it reminded me when I was in college. Your video was very creative. Your message definitely creatively came across. Thank you for being you. It was absolutely beautiful and the lyrics to the song were beautiful. I listened to it a few times. Thank you Vicki! You are a star!!!

Creative and beautiful...

...and your message is timeless. As my 93-year-old mother says so bluntly says: "When you stop learning you're dead."

Your song is as beautiful as your message which, for me is: "For it was its age and character that made it unique and beautiful. Just like each and every one of us. We all have our talents and we owe it to ourselves to appreciate and give credit to ourselves enough so that we’re motivated to put our efforts toward improving ourselves in any way possible so that we are the best that we can be." Perfect.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!

I listened to this when i first woke up this morning and all I can say, is What a great way to start the Day!!! I love how the message is " Are You Worth The Investment?" The only answer is YES!! Just like your guitar, there is only one of you to offer YOUR voice, and we all have something to offer. Maybe not as Beautifully as you...Thanks Vicki

Love to have you sing again VICKI -

So Vicki, just like an old guitar, if I want to learn and grow, even though I am special just the way I am, I can become the amazing awesome being that I picture for my future! Its not about me, specifically, or any product or service! Its about learning and growing and its about a full life--Vicki, so amazing.

Beautiful message Vicki!

If we do not invest into
our own self development we
will not move forward.
Just a little everyday
will keep us moving in the
right direction.

Humbled With Gratitude!

Thanks so much for your kind words and support! I appreciate it so much, being hesitant to have posted this after my last second decision to add the last bit, I didn't want my point being lost in song so to speak! Anyway, much appreciation for your votes, shares and comments!

Vicki

You are so right - we are worth it. You have to find your voice and there is no way to do that without personal development. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. This will help me to remember that I am worth it. - Debi
