"Everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is!" Anne Frank
As little children we possessed everything because we were born potential and resourceful. We didn't lack anything for our natural growth and development. If you don't believe, observe the little kids how smart and intelligent they are. You won't believe how fast they move, run and think. The children are born with high degree of potentiality.
Les Brown says, "Just because Fate doesn't deal you the right cards, it doesn't mean you should give up. It just means you have to play the cards you get to their maximum potential." Yes, you may have already experienced many bad fortunes but no way your potential to accomplish any goals that you desire will ever escape you. You will achieve it sooner than you expect it. There is infinite potential hidden within you since your birth and nobody has the power to steal it away however others can easily divert your interests and burning desires. You got to be watchful about it.
But how can you unlock your potential? There must be some ways to unlock it. Winston Churchill provided us a way to unleash our potential when he said, "Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential." If you are committed to continuous efforts you can easily unlock the infinite potential that you have within you. Believe, you have infinite potential and capabilities.
Bo Bennet once said, "Every day, people settle for less than they deserve. They are only partially living or at best living a partial life. Every human being has the potential for greatness." Many philosophers, wise scholars, successful men and women have been chanting the same thing through out the ages that men do possess infinite potential. According to recent experts, we don't even employ 10% of our brain capacity instead we use may be 2-3% at the most but some wise scholars and scientists do use 10-12% of our brain capacity.
The ice-berg shows only the tip of it and hides the greatest part. The same way we use only a fraction of our brain capacity and the large part of our potential remains unused and untapped. There is infinite potential within us but we hardly realize and take action to explore deeper. We easily give up when things don't go well with things and forget to capitalize on the greater part of our brain capacity.
Herbert Beerbohm Tree put it this way, "Every man is a potential genius until he does something." Is there any doubt that an individual doesn't possess infinite potential? Not at all, there is no such thing as limited potential. The Universe or God has bestowed us infinite potential to last as long as we want them.
I would like to conclude this with a great quote by Confucius, "The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential... these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence." Believe, you have the infinite potential to become what you want and enjoy what you desire. Remember you are more than what you are displaying at present.
