Personal Development Blogs - Sources of Insight

“You don’t overcome challenges by making them smaller but by making yourself bigger.” —John C. Maxwell

This is my map of top personal development blogs. It’s organized for fast scanning. Where possible, I listed the blog owner because I find that behind every great well of wisdom, is somebody making it happen.

When I think of personal development, I think of hacks, skills, principles, patterns, and practices for improving mind, body, emotions, career, financial, relationships, and fun.

I distinguish personal development from self-help although there can be overlap. I have a developer background so I tend to prefer personal development blogs that take more of a “design” or “engineer” approach (e.g. “you by design,” “life by design,” or “architect of life.”).

I also tend to prefer personal development blogs that are more holistic or integrated that include mind, body, emotions, and spirit, unless I’m looking for a focused niche. In that case, I tend to like a lot of insight and depth on that specific topic.

It’s a living catalog of top personal development blogs, so let me know any great personal development blogs that I’ve missed.

It’s my way of making it easier to hop around the Web to find insight and action for work and life.
