How do you challenge yourself to grow and to improve as a person?

That was the recent question on View From The Street with journalist, James Spencer, asking the people of Manchester about Growth on TheLateLateLunchShow, exclusively on RadioAlty.co.uk.

What methods do people use to track or record personal growth? How do you feed a growth mindset over a fixed mindset?

Do people use journalling a few times per week to think and reflect on work and social situations, to assess what they did well and how they can improve?

What about goal setting per week, or monthly or having 3-month, 6-month or yearly targets?

How important are goals to giving you structure and direction?

This is episode 104 of View From The Street.
