>Using what they call the "Development First" Model

The following model is derived from the book, "Development First: Strategies for Self-Development" by Daivd Petterson and Mary Hicks.

The following five steps help you proactively drive your development and establish a cycle of continuous learning:

1: (F)ocus on priorities: Identify your critial issues and goals
2: (I)mplement something every day: Stretch your comfort zone daily;
3: (R)eflect on what happens: Extract maximum learning from your experiences.
4: (S)eek feedback and support: Learn from others' ideas and perspectives.
5: (T)ransfer learning into next steps: Adapt and plan for continued learning.

Notice that these five steps alternate between an inward and outward focus. Effective development involves a reflective process, as well as action and interaction with others during the course of the five steps. Once you have consolidated your experiences in the final step, you then cycle back to the beginning to focus on your next priority for learning.

Now we can move onto bigger and better things. Selling.
