3.All Correct

All Correct is a site that offers professional proofreading and editing services at a cost. It’s not always possible to detect your own errors or to see where improvement is possible, and this site helps in those areas. You can get feedback on your writing and develop your skills based on what you need to improve or the fundamentals of talents you already have. Sometimes we work and work and practice our writing and have no idea if we’re actually making progress. Here’s a way to get great and detailed feedback.

4.Ted

Ted.com, also known for Ted X and Ted Talks, is a great site for getting motivated and interested about science and technology, but also discusses topics relating to self-development and improvement. Browse the site to find topics to research further on your own, watch videos and talks on things like Creativity, Leadership, life in general, and more. Some ground-breaking Ted talks and Ted X talks have been on subjects such as altered perception, ancient civilizations, and so on.

6.Volunteer Ministers

Though the Volunteer Ministers site is Scientology based (which is a turnoff based on its associations and attempt to get people interested in Scientology), it has a lot of good info and course offerings. You can improve in work-related areas, manage stress, depression, work on relationships, improve communication, and more. It is similar to Mind Tools, except that it is based on Scientology which is not for everyone. If we can put aside the controversies surrounding Scientology, or are curious what the followers are putting out there, this is an interesting site.

The various sites on the net can be the perfect tool for certain people. There’s something for everyone who is looking to develop and grow in many areas of their lives. Personal development, though, has to start on the inside where a desire for change can manifest as action.
