Personal Development MP3s and why they work for me

Personal development is becoming more and more popular. If that term were used 10 years ago, not many would know the meaning. Anyways, personal development mp3s are becoming the new craze because they are so practical and easy and anyone can listen to them. If you are serious about personal development you need an Ipod. Why? Because it's portable, and organized.

Sure, other mp3 players play mp3s but I find the Ipods easy to manage and use. Although sometimes I wish I could create play lists on the go. However, the benefits far out weight the drawbacks. What I do is setup a play list for every type of development I want to accomplish. For example, I will setup a play list for weight loss, procrastination, being present or conscious, and other personal traits I want to improve.

Anytime I have a chance to listen to these mp3s I take it. My consistent time is right before bed. I try to listen to a quieter more relaxing type, such as hypnosis. The hypnosis relaxes me and I fall asleep easily. For my night time play lists, I set up usually 2-3 mp3s. I am sure to be asleep by the end, and the Ipod turns itself off after it's done, saving the batteries.

When purchasing my Ipod, I decided to get the video one. I think it's worth the difference in price. I've downloaded Oprah's web casts that she recorded with Eckhart Tolle on his book "A New Earth." I usually watch them when I am in a waiting room of some sort, or as a passenger in a vehicle on a long trip.

Actually it also came in handy when I had my last baby. I put some movies on it for my husband, and while I was patiently waiting to have the baby, my husband could watch movies. Also, after the little girl came into this world, it was nice to keep us occupied while waiting to be discharged.

Another time it came in handy was when I had car trouble and had to wait to be rescued. That turned into another good time to watch Oprah and Eckhart on the web classes.

Another time I usually listen to mp3s is my drive to and from work. It helps start my day off right and relaxes me after a long and frustrating day at work. Before my Ipod, I would think about my day, what happened, what's going to happen tomorrow. Even when I went to sleep at night, my mind was consumed with work. I didn't know how to separate myself.

It would take me at least an hour to get to sleep at night and even then, I would end up dreaming about work, what would happen, what I would try to get done the next. And the worst thing about work was the politics. Politics appear in every work place. Other people call it drama, but when management is a part, I call it politics.

Now, it takes me less than 10 minutes to fall asleep. From the time I lay my head down, to deep sleep. I am so happy. I get a better night sleep and wake up happier in the morning. I have changed my life for the better.
