Of course, it sounds nice and enticing to become free, or at least freer, in your actions. You likely have a way to go before that happens, though. Let's be honest: You have to be convinced of the importance and the benefit of this concept before you’ll be prepared to travel that path. Am I wrong?

It helps, then, to remember the possible benefits of development. Managing your personality becomes important when you want to

 Reach your full potential

 Enjoy meaningful and lasting relationships

 Suffer less from your limitations

 Work as part of a team as effectively and enjoyably as possible

 Live a more visible and resilient life

 Strive for changes and/or conflicts to ultimately be constructive

 Pursue inner peace and balance

 Live with less conflict and more harmony and connection

This list is somewhat long, but I think the point is clear.

Ask yourself these questions as you consider how important it is for you to develop: How can you benefit as a person, in your relationships, and at work? Do you have qualities within you or in your life that you want to be less bothered by?
