Hi, is the question of whether or not self development is possible a little too vague? There are many ways promoted to achieve self development, but most genuine ones appear to require a better control over the mind. Is there any technique to gain more control over the way we think. I think Meditation is something that can increase mind power, which may be proportional to the ability to develop these skills. Any more suggestions on this???
Mediation is certainly helpful in increasing mind power. There are some other ways in which you can transform your thinking process and influence the mind, which results in better control. Applied quantum theory can also be taken in account when talking about self development. According to that school of thought we experience we think, reflect on, believe in, etc. – in every minute detail. There is much information available on the web about Quantum Wealth and Mind Power. Hope that link helps you out!
Yes, absolutely. But it is not a fast process, it takes time. Read good books on self development topics by good authors to get you started. Read this blog and buy all the author's books. Great stuff. http://blog.creativethink.com/
Meditation does help a lot but I believe most important is through our own effort by leading a simple life to reduce stress and also by having positive thinking.
