The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth
by John C. Maxwell
Fifteen principles for personal growth: intentionality, awareness, the mirror, consistency, environment, design, pain, the ladder, the rubber band, trade-offs, curiosity, modeling, expansion, contribution. It is a Maxwell book, with stories and applications, and the Law of Consistency and Law of Environment are the most actionable.
Read it if…
you want a structured plan for personal development over a year.
Skip it if…
you have read several Maxwell books; the voice and format are the same.
Three things you will actually use
- Grow daily, not occasionally.
- Change your environment to change your trajectory.
- Trade good for better; growth requires giving things up.
Do this first
Write a daily growth plan: what you will read, practice and reflect on for fifteen minutes a day.
Our verdict
Systematic and encouraging; a sensible growth plan.
