Best Personal Development Boards on the Internet?

Funny, I actually have heard quite a few people mention that Pavlina board before, but I wasn't checking for it when it was up, too bad.

Regarding relevancy, maybe you could start a new thread and find out. We're here to get motivation, but we're here to help too. Good luck.

A big part of the problem in the personal development field is that there dozens, perhaps hundreds of ways, to achieve growth. Some work better than others, and some work with certain personality types but not others. Many times what works and what doesn't work simply depends on what a person believes.

The trouble with all this is that most of the writers in this field have their pet ways they feel are the best and anything else is something less than what they teach, so disagreements are inevitable.

It's the same thing in the spirituality field. People develop their beliefs and they'll defend them with all their strength. In most cases people aren't open enough to consider that other beliefs may be correct. They are too vested in defending their beliefs to even consider that two people can hold opposite views and both be right.

That's why I often read the Mind Warriors subforum, but seldom comment. People all have their own view of reality, filtered through their emotions, intelligence, knowledge, experiences, beliefs, biases, and many other influences, and many don't understand that their own filters distort their perception.

Not one of us fully understands reality. Every one of us believe things that aren't true. Each of us chooses how much wisdom we experience by how many doors to understanding we close on the assumption our current understanding is all there is.

What vain fools we mortals be.
