Best Personal Development Gifts

by JD

“Let him who would move the world first move himself.” — Socrates

One of my favorite gifts to give is the gift that keeps on giving:

Personal Development

I’ve put together a comprehensive roundup of some of the best personal development programs that make great gifts for the holidays, or any time really.

These are some of the best personal development programs that have changes the lives of millions of people.

These are the programs where people have truly, deeply, and profoundly transformed themselves, changed their lot in life, and discovered what they’re truly capable of.

Audio Programs for Personal Development

The beauty of personal development audio programs is that you can listen to them in the background, as reminders, or play them to inspire you when you need it most.

The other beauty of audio programs is that you get to hear the person’s actual voice.

Their voice helps you build empathy for the information.  When you hear a person’s voice, you connect and learn at a deeper level.

Insider’s Guide to the Art of Persuasion

by Dr. Rick Kirschner

Insiders Guide to the Art of Persuasion

Insider’s Guide to the Art of Persuasion (Audio), by Dr. Rick Kirschner: This is probably the most comprehensive and effective interpersonal skills and influence program there is.

It’s 6.5 hours (8 volumes, 32 tracks)  of hard-core training delivered in a fun and simple way.

It covers scenarios like how to motivate people to change their minds and behavior, how to gain useful insights into how people think and feel, how to shape your ideas to speak to the interests and needs of others, how to deal with questions, objections, and outright opposition, and how to become more calm, confident, and relaxed when speaking up and speaking out.

Lead the Field

by Earl Nightingale

Lead the Field

Lead the Field is a very simple program for changing your attitude.

Rather than think the grass is always greener somewhere else, you learn how to grow a greener field right under your feet.

It’s about leading from the inside out.

You can tell that Earl is speaking from a different generation, but I was surprised by how timeless his advice is and how he covers so much in such a compact way.

Personal Power II: The Driving Force!

Tony Robbins Personal Power II

Personal Power II (Audio), by Tony Robbins, is the program that really taught me how to model success, be more resourceful, unleash more of what I’m capable of, and continuously improve key areas of my life.

  • Ludwig van Beethoven’s triumphs over childhood abuse, depression, and going deaf
  • Gandhi’s transformation from tongue-tied youth to leader of the Indian independence movement
