the total realization of that love for the country, which is
nationalistic. How can one show their patriotism? Here

• A personal development plan is

 Personal development plan
• Wells (2012), in his book Seven Simple Steps-Life
Transformation Guide, states that success requires an
articulated goal. It is not a product of wishful thinking.
Purpose will set the context and get you thinking about
your life and what is important to you. This is your guide
in preparing your own personal development plan by
Wells.

Development Plan
• 1. Your true self
• 5. Harness the
• 2. Make it personal
power
• 3. Know your
• 6. Accept success
outcome
• 7. Life is circular
• 4. Design success
• Value means the regard that something is held to
deserve; the importance, worth or usefulness of
something according to Merriam dictionary. But it
has a big impact in every man’s life. Value gives
people power to achieve his/her goals, respect the
dignity of others, and can build a better person
who aspires to become great and successful.
• People’s values signify who you are, what you are
and who you are in the near future. It is with
values that you help others to develop and
achieve their goal to success. We also promote
peace and camaraderie among all cultures. If this
will be instilled in people’s lives, peace, harmony
and development of self, others and country will
be achieved. Train yourself to it and you can do
great things.
