PerDev - Module 1

This document discusses personal development and human development. It explains that personal development involves reflecting on oneself to understand strengths and weaknesses, and learning new skills and attitudes to reach one's full potential. Human development encompasses physical, cognitive, and psychosocial growth over a person's lifespan. While human development is influenced by genetics, environment, and maturation, personal development is one's own growth and self-improvement within the contexts of these domains. The goal of personal development is to reduce gaps between people's actual and ideal selves.
