Personal Growth Framework
A systematic approach to self-improvement through pattern recognition and structured reflection.
Workflow
Identify patterns: Review recent experiences. What recurring situations, behaviors, or outcomes do you notice?
Analyze strengths: What's working well? Which approaches consistently succeed? What natural talents emerge?
Spot improvement areas: Where do you struggle repeatedly? What skills need development? What habits hold you back?
Understand context: When do challenges occur? What triggers them? What environmental factors matter?
Design experiments: Choose one small change to test. Make it specific and measurable. Set a timeframe.
Track progress: Document what happens. Note what works and what doesn't. Adjust based on evidence.
Iterate: Build on successes. Learn from failures. Repeat the cycle with new experiments.
Core Principles
- Evidence-based: Base improvements on observed patterns, not assumptions
- Incremental: Small, consistent changes beat dramatic overhauls
- Contextual: What works depends on your situation and goals
- Iterative: Growth is continuous experimentation and refinement
Key Principle
Self-improvement is pattern recognition + systematic experimentation. Observe yourself objectively, identify patterns, test changes, and refine based on results.
