About this listen
A New Year hails a new beginning for most of us. Some may resolve to quit smoking, lose weight, get a new job or get our finances in order. By February, some of our resolve has vanished, mainly because we couldn’t get over ourselves. We’re our own worst enemies when it comes to change.
What most of us need is a plan that we can understand and stick to, through all of the hurdles, temptations, and stress that enter our lives. This self-development plan contains five basic elements that you’ll need to overcome yourself and win the battles to take you to ultimate success, so you can be happy in life.
The elements are:
Spiritual
You don’t have to be religious to be a spiritual person. When a person has spiritual strength within, they have a built-in belief system in themselves that will propel them on, no matter what the problem.
Habits
We all have some habits we’d like to rid ourselves of, but some habits are debilitating and affect many areas of our lives in a negative way. For example, smoking is a habit that keeps us away from others and damages our health. Drinking too much can do the same.
Stress
Too much stress in our lives can lead to depression and anxiety, and take a toll on our health. Find a way to control stress, and you’ve found a key element toward positive self-development.
Relationships
There are many types of relationships in our lives - family, spouse or love interest, friends, money, coworkers, and even food. Until we address the toxic relationships in our lives that keep us from success and positive self-development, we’ll be lacking in that part of our lives.
Body/Mind
As you care for your body - so you care for your mind. Without exercise, the proper diet, avoiding chemicals and other contaminates in your life, the body doesn’t function as it should - and neither does your mind.
As you take this journey of self-development, turn inward for answers. You’ll find that there are some that you’ve always known for sure - and some that will be a big surprise. Keep a journal about your progress and setbacks, and learn about yourself in everything you strive to do.

For generations, we have been taught that when we become successful, we'll be happy. If we can just make more money, or find an attractive partner, or get a six-pack, we'll be happy. Success equals happiness. The recent advancements in the field of psychology suggest otherwise. We have to first become happier in order to achieve the next level in any endeavor. The increase in happiness has been proven to facilitate clear thinking, more income, healthier relationships, increased motivation, and better health.

Depression is something we all dealt with either personally or have witnessed its impact on others around us. It affects our intimate relationships, drastically impacts our sex life, and affects our children, spouses, and family. If not dealt with in a healthy way, it takes over our lives. Our problems become our only focus. After some time, it only leads you further into the abyss and lessens the likelihood you’ll ever regain control of your thoughts. Even if you’ve tried everything you can think of with no success, you can finally gain control of your thoughts.

Self-discipline is the key to everything, and it is the greatest gift you can give yourself! The guts to finish what you started and following through. The strength to drop that bad habit completely and replace it with a wholesome one. To me, self-discipline means making your intentions reality. Too often, we’ll say we’ll do something, and we might even start it one lucky weekend. But at the first sign of hardship, fatigue, boredom, or busyness, we abandon it all too easily, and it sits in our garage (mentally, figuratively, or literally) for the rest of eternity.

Story
Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

Story
Based on seven years of ground-breaking research and hundreds of interviews, I Thought It Was Just Me shines a long-overdue light on an important truth: Our imperfections are what connect us to each other and to our humanity. Our vulnerabilities are not weaknesses; they are powerful reminders to keep our hearts and minds open to the reality that we're all in this together.
