You Are Not Your Potential!
“Your past is not your potential. In any hour you can choose to liberate the future.” Marilyn Ferguson
You are not your potential. It’s great to visualise your future. It’s great to dream about all that you can become but do not become disillusioned. Because the reality is your potential is who you become not who you are now.
If you rely too heavily on being like this potential, you will cause yourself some level of pain and suffering in the process. This comes from trying to do the things you cannot yet do. By trying to be the person that you cannot yet be you will find challenge. You must do the work required of you today.
Be ambitious. Dream and romanticise with your most audacious visualisations. Remember this quote by Lao Tzu, “The journey of 1000 miles starts with your very next step.” Each step on the path to your greatest potential provides you the lessons and learnings required to take each proceeding step.
Do not attempt to fast track the success of your full potential. Do not be wasteful. Be wise about each move. You will enjoy your life’s journey much more deeply with this approach.
