We divide things up for the sake of cognitive ease, not because that's the way things are. The problem that I've noticed is that people try to do too many things too quickly. I'm not suggesting that one should not do other things, in fact, I highly recommend variety. I am suggesting a short term focus on one aspect, at least for a little bit. After that focused growth, you can move on to something else, improve that to a point of stability and go to something else. I was perhaps not clear enough when I originally wrote this, so i may update that blog entry at some point. Thank you for your comment. :) You are right, everything is very much interrelated.

Wouldn't it be beneficial to exploit the effects of synergy in your personal development? Ignoring areas outside your area of focus means you'd miss out on the benefits of combining some practices. E.g., meditation could help you more clearly identify your main values etc., and you could use that to clarify your goals and planning when tackling time management. Re: 2.
