  Being open-minded can be really tough sometimes, trust me, I know. Most of us are brought up with a set of beliefs and values and, throughout our lives, tend to surround ourselves with people who share the same values and beliefs. Therefore, it can be difficult when we're faced with ideas that challenge our own and, though we may wish to be open-minded, we may struggle with the act of it from time to time.  I'd like to say I'm a fairly open-minded person, but, like most people, I do have some pretty strong views about specific topics and find it hard to sway from those opinions -- no matter how others might try to persuade me. Of course, I fully believe that having strong beliefs can be a wonderful thing and I believe we should all stay true to what we believe in, but having strong beliefs doesn't have to mean having a closed mind.  Though it can be tough to do sometimes, I've always found that when I open my mind, I've reaped a lot of rewarding...

 Personal power is supported by your contacts and money. Developing an ever-widening circle of contacts increases the number of open doors for you. Having people with like-minded goals and are willing to help you can directly affect how successful you are. Money in the bank provides freedom and the ability to take full advantage of certain opportunities when they present themselves. You know the saying, "Money is Power". 

 Personal growth is bettering yourself, stepping out of your comfort zone, focusing on becoming a better version of yourself. Humans and the human mind is constantly evolving and never stops. Your job is to always be a better version of yourself than you were yesterday.
