Do you want to accomplish more with your life? Do you feel that you have great potential untapped up inside of you but can’t quite fully get there? Many people feel this way. Marcus Buckingham, who has done extensive research on strengths, disparages the use of the word potential because if can cause people to feel discouraged about a never-ending quest rather than living their strengths today. The reality is as humans we don’t ever truly reach our full potential because as we upskill our potential also increases. It is perhaps a little like a mirage that is always ahead of you but never quite attainable. The “mirage” of your potential is not a negative illusion however, it can be a catalyst and vision to your capability and possibility. If we allow ourselves to be discouraged about reaching it, we never scratch the surface of our potential staying stagnant and complacent. When we see it and strive for it, we grow, improve and advance. It is worth it and does make a difference. Someone striving for their potential is farther ahead anyway than someone who has given up on achieving their potential. Are you ready to find out what you can do?
