Questions & answers

What is Seeds of Personal Growth?

A yearly reflection and planning guidebook by Katharina Mayer. It adapts strategic business frameworks to personal life, so you can look back on your year with clarity and plan the next one with intention. DIN A5 hardcover, written in English.

How long does it take to complete?

Just a few focused hours. Many readers work through it in two to three sessions: they complete the reflection part, sleep on it for a night, and continue with the planning part the next day. Often new thoughts come up overnight that help you set your goals more clearly.

When should I start?

Any time. The book is undated, so it works at the end of the year, on your birthday, or whenever a new chapter begins. You simply write the year on the spine.

What’s inside the book?

Two parts: Reflection, where you look back on achievements, challenges and your best moments, and Planning, where you set goals area by area. Along the way you’ll find exercises like a 60-day habit check and key insights from books such as Atomic Habits.

Do I need a business background?

No. The frameworks come from strategy work, but they are translated into simple prompts and exercises that anyone can use.

Is it a good gift?

Yes — for friends, family or colleagues who want to grow personally, professionally or both. It’s a thoughtful present for the end of the year or a new beginning.

How can I pay?

You can pay by credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna, Link, EPS, Bancontact or BLIK – the options shown in the checkout depend on your country. Payments are processed securely by Stripe.
