I have heard it so many times from people, well he or she has so much potential.
The question is how valuable is potential really?
If we say this or that person could be a great sprinter, skier,
doctor, or whatsoever, the most important word in this sentence is
could.
Maybe the person has a strong talent or natural skill and understanding in a certain area, but she or he is still far away from living this potential.
The people I´ve seen “succeed” in areas of their lives that were important to them all have a few things in common.
They worked regularly, consistently, and over a longer period of time
(several years, not just weeks or months) on something that was important enough for them to follow through.
Here are some questions for you to ask yourself if you want to get the “could” out of your life and bring more of your potential into reality.
Which areas are you extremely talented in, that you don´t use and
don´t live because you are still lingering in the “could phase”?
What would be a small first step to bringing this talent or potential into your life as reality?
I wish you all the best with recognizing and living your potentials so that you don´t get stuck in the “could” and really go for it now.
