I’m looking for articles on potential. What are some things you can do to activate your potential?
Reaching your potential is all about getting better at your strengths and managing your weaknesses.
A good place to start is with the following articles- Incarcerated: 4 Walls That Limit Success, The Perceived and Ideal Self, and Blind Spots: Insight for Self-Awareness
I’m sure you’ve read or heard that most people- and I do mean most- are trapped in careers and jobs that they don’t really like. Given the chance and a strong perception of success, they would change occupations in a heartbeat. What about you?
If so, do you really think you could become self-actualized doing something you don’t do well or something you don’t like? Not a chance.
Do what you love to do. Do what you’re good at doing. (How do you know that you are truly good?)
Hopefully, what you are good at and what you love to do are one and the same. If not, do what you’re good at (and constantly get better) in order to create a lifestyle in which you can do what love to do during your leisure time.
