Abundance is truly present in personal development choices. The marketing orientation is our actual major social motif. This is also true when it comes to personal development methods and systems. They all try to show themselves as unique deliverers from personal and/or social misery. Which is good. Still, the number of them gives food for thought. There must be something that is not unique, something common in them. Let’s try to find it.

It is a trivia that a bigger goal must be split into smaller ones. Otherwise it might just overwhelm you. If we put this pattern over personal development systems, we can find so many goals defined. I mean like

• learning time management,
• goal management,
• self control,
• improved self confidence,
• unleashing creativity etc.

Reaching completeness is…

What can be considered common in all these? If we consider those smaller goals, what unites them? What’s the bigger goal? In my opinion, basically they all strive for filling up the gaps in human personality, human lives. Or, to put it in a positive perspective, they all strive for a more complete human being. This leads to the conclusion that reaching completeness is a common motif in personal development systems.

… reaching the soul.

As I stated previously in the 4 organizing principles of Vertegram as a framework, the goal of personal development is reaching the soul. This is the state of completeness that every human being is looking for. When using the term “soul”, we usually express that state of completeness which is so hard to grasp in words. It is more like an intuition. We feel its presence somehow, we are aware of its possibility.

Unfortunately, this intuition doesn’t last for too long. It was just a glimpse in our consciousness, now it’s gone. We were aware of it for a while, but not any more. So, we are not able to reach it as we like, when we like. These are rare moments that show up due to circumstances beyond us.

Can you remember moments of completeness in your life? There must have been many of those, we just tend to forget them. Let me help you a little. For example, think about a moment when you were really in love. Think about those moments when you have felt so happy, so filled with joy because of the presence of your beloved. How could you forget such an extraordinary experience? Why aren’t you living like that every moment of your life? Do you think that might be possible at all?

Conclusions:

• The most common motif in personal development is reaching completeness.
• Reaching completeness means reaching the soul.
• The intuition of the soul usually comes unconsciously.
• These moments are beyond our control.
• Personal development should give us the means to learn the way to reach the soul.
