[....] Everyone has a greater potential that lies deep within waiting to be awaken. How do we awaken this potential? How do you discover and assume total control of our full potential? While there may be a number of proven ways to discovering your potential, I would like us to focus on 4 of the best ways in our next article. [.....]
One of the reasons why many people go through life without fully utilizing their full potential is because they often look for exotic answers when it comes to success. People often look for exotic answers to success. People want mystic secrets and strategies.
But in the world of success, it's not like that. Success is a basic process, and being basic it has basic answers. Mastering the fundamentals is the first step to your success. Anyways, that is another philosophy on its own. Now let us take a look at the four ways I mentioned in our last article.
You might notice that I utterly tried by all means to make this work as simple as is practicably. If I had made it more complicated, you might miss the point. If it becomes more complex, it might lose its intended meaning and purpose. This is a basic process and you rightly need these basics.
Make use of these basics. Make use of the simplicity used here.
- CONSISTENT USE OF OUR TALENTS, SKILLS AND ABILITIES
I often tell my friends that we, as a people, have resources that were granted us to use as leverage into discovering who we really are. These are the assets to use in our journey to discovering our ideal self. Our talents, gifts, capabilities and abilities are the essential resources that we have to use to discover who we really are. What we have been put on this planet earth to do. These are the resources that you need to use in discovering your full potential.
We all have talents and gifts. Through consistent use they help us discover who we really are. The process of developing these resources is what unveils the true potential within us.
Firstly, you have to discover your talents and gifts. Sadly, people most don’t do that. Others, even if they discover their talents, they do not invest the necessary time and tactics to develop them. You need to discover what you are actually best in doing. If you cannot discover them or you are not quite sure, at least seek help from other people. There is a higher likelihood that the people whom you closely associate with have been seeing what you do to your best and might help you discover your potential.
Once you’ve discovered them, develop all these talents and gifts. One proven way to develop any skill or gift is to put it into use. You don’t develop your talents by just doing nothing or taking action once in a while. You need to be consistent in whatever action you take. Nurture them till they become a mastered skill. By so doing you awaken your full potential that lies deep within you, for this is where the supreme god finally decided to hide it, at least according to the Indian myth. Deep within us.
- KNOW AND UNDERSTAND THAT ‘IT’ IS IN YOU
According to the tale that I related at the beginning of our first article we all have a great potential within us. You have to understand that all the personal resources you need are within. I had to highlight personal because you not only personal resources. There are many other resources you will need, but the personal are within.
You are already great; all you need is to understand this fact and realize your greatness. Realize the greatness within you and live the life you are set to live. This great potential you have is within you and you will only start utilizing it once you acknowledge and understand that 'it' is within you.
If you need answers search within. This is where all your potential is hidden. This is the source of your potential. By consistently using our abilities and our mind we stand a chance to awaken the greatness within us. As human beings, we all have a duty to unveil and discover this potential. It is within us.
- BE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE
It is very sad, yet very true, that some people know they are able but are not yet great. Some people know that they possess great powers within themselves and yet are living a life of mediocre. This is because they don’t want to add one simple ingredient to their formula of operation, ACTION. If you are not willing to invest the action required, there won't be results.
As human beings, we all are born great but it takes the discovery of all your potentials that you become really great. This greatness lies within. The discovery process is not as easy as you may have anticipated. Action needs to be taken. You have to pay the price.
If you are not willing to act, I am afraid your reading of this article might be in vain. You will never achieve anything if you are not willing to pay the price. Once you know what you have to do, take action; and take action now before procrastination occupies your space. Take action now, latest tomorrow, giving tonight to schedule your plan of action.
Human beings are the only organisms that were granted the dignity to choose. We are the only form of life that has the freedom of choice. If I may ask, as an example, how big can a tree grow? As tall as it can. How much food can a group of ants gather food for a season? As much as they can.
You see, that is the difference that makes us lazy. We have a freedom of choice. We are not willing to put in the necessary work because we have a choice. We do not develop ourselves to our full potential because we have a choice not to. This is freedom is what hinders us from our maximum performance.

- ALWAYS FIND A REASON TO BE HAPPY
While this last statement does not necessarily mean be satisfied and content with the level of life you are currently living in. It is meant to remind you that there is a lot to enjoy out of life. Count your blessings everyday and sing songs of rejoice and joy each and every day. As far as there is a lot to be thankful about in life, there is a lot to be happy about. Each day always carries its blessings. Its up to you to realize them.
Be happy, always. In whatever action you take, plan you implement, project you initiate, let happiness abide. When you enjoy what you are doing you are better able to achieve the bigger goal. When you enjoy the journey, the destination comes off as a side effect.
Understand that no matter how much you might be dedicated to the plan, there may always be areas that will seem unfinished. There will always be incomplete tasks. Always find a reason to be happy, lest you become consumed by it. Don’t let the process consume you. The trick is not to be a jack of all trades but be a master of some.
In conclusion, the first step to realizing the greatness in you is to know your potential. This greatness is already in you, all you need is to realize that you are great. Live your greatness!
