How I measure personal growth- My checklist to rate progress

Progress over Perfection!

  I have been reading up on personal development and ways to improve my quality of life and success, I have stumbled upon several straightforward and often contradictory ideologies from various scientists, neurosurgeons, social researchers, personal development authors, and spiritual writers alike. But, how can I track my growth? What are the qualities that constitute well-rounded progress through life? I tried to find answers and after some brainstorming, I came up with a checklist. Here is a list of 45 questions I ask myself to get better one step at a time.


  1. Is this action governed by my cognition or impulse?

  2. Do I feed my microbiome with nourishing food?

  3. Do I reflect on the day and learn from it?

  4. Do I invest time in moving forward in my career path?

  5. Does my body feel active and energetic?

  6. Do I experience the World outside of the usual setting?

  7. Do I connect with nature at least once a week?

  8. Did I express my love to my loved ones today?

  9.  Who should I remove or stay away from, in my life?
