INTRODCTION
Personal and Professional development is that process or mechanism, through which an
individual develop and improve those quality and capabilities, which allows them to become
person of their choice. In this report, I have made a discussion regarding my personal goals that I
would be securing in future, along with the discussion over concept and value of Personal
development in a planned manner.
TASK 1
Defining concept of Personal and Professional development
Personal and Professional development is that concept through which an individual takes
to develop skills and abilities in oneself, which are required by one in different spheres of life
and in fighting different challenges of life. If one goes through understanding the entire concept
of personal and professional development than one can eventually notice two different concept in
one. The one is Personal development, where an individual is seen making development in those
qualities and skills and efficiencies, which shall be helpful for that individual in making his
personal life better, like fighting difficulties and challenges that are totally personal (Tattum and
Tattum, 2017). For example, one could be feeling dire need of controlling emotions in personal
life, then they would be need to working on it. On the other hand, there is professional
development, under which an individual is seen developing and enhancing those qualities within,
through which one can make unhampered growth in his career. However, the concept of Personal
and Professional development also requires one person to make every step and every decision in
a well planned manner.
Describe and discuss the value of short-term goals identifying at least 3 personal examples.
Comfort zone- First of all, I am required to leave my comfort zone, in every possible way I can.
Comfort zone is that situation for an Individual, in which an individual learns to remain happy
but do not strive towards making any progress, and supposedly deems everything is going good
in life. This attitude of happiness without progress, is poisonous for me, as there is no meaning of
life without progress.
