What is Potential?

This is a profound question to ask yourself and as well a life altering one.  What is potential?  It is the inherent capacity for coming into being. It is existing in possibility expected to become or be; in prospect.

Ask yourself right now if you are living up to your full potential?  You might say yes or no or maybe you aren’t sure. If you’re not sure, you are not alone, many people are in the same boat.

 “The source of all creation is pure consciousness … pure potentiality seeking expression from the unmanifest to the manifest.  And when we realize that our true SELF is one of PURE POTENTIALITY, we ALIGN with the power that manifests everything in the universe”.

 ~Deepak Chopra~

Potential is the Possibility of Something Amazing!

I believe potential is the possibility of something amazing. To live up to one’s potential is to be open to one’s greatness. One of the first steps is to figure out your life purpose.  If you don’t know your life purpose, I believe it will be difficult to reach your full potential. To achieve its potential – some might call it ‘destiny’ and I believe you can reach it, but it will take focus, dedication, and commitment. It also takes thinking outside of your world, seeing things from a less self-centered approach..more on that later!

We all have Varying Potential

To achieve your potential, you need to develop a sense of what YOU are naturally like so that you can focus in areas that are in accord with your innate interests, nature, and strengths.  There are some great resources out there that you can use to find out your interests, personality type, etc., some are free and others you have to pay for.  Here are a few free ones (I’ve checked which ones were secure sites as there were a few that were not … had to learn the hard way!) You can search for more.

  1. 16 Personalities 
  2. Free IQ TEST
  3. Myers -Briggs also has a few but it will cost!

These tests will be a good start in helping you to identify what you are naturally like.

ACTION STEPS:

  1. What are your innate interests? Write these down.
  2. Take one of the personality tests to find out your personality type.
  3. What do you see as your calling?
  4. Ask close friends or family what they see you doing or what your gifts are.  This is affirmation in knowing if everything aligns.

Is Your Glass Half Full?

EACH DAY IS A GIFT

I’m reminded of a song when I was a little girl that I heard from church with these words:  This is the day, this is the day, that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it!  Since then, I’ve adopted it into my everyday life.  Each day is a gift, it’s a new day, it will not be like yesterday or tomorrow. It is unique!  If you focus on the positive and not dwell in negativity, you will find yourself InTune, In balance, In harmony, In peace!

It’s looking at life with a positive attitude, changing your mindset even though something doesn’t seem to be going in your favor.  It may seem difficult at first, but if you train your mind to think along these lines, you will be much happier. When I wanted certain things to happen,  I would always tell myself if it were meant to be then it will be.  My motto I tell my children is that “if it’s meant to be then it will happen effortlessly”.  It certainly takes a lot of pressure off now doesn’t it?

It is a simple command!  It will definitely cause you less suffering if you look at everything with an attitude of gratitude and not become a Debbie Downer type of person.  No one wants to be around that … it’s exhausting!  I”ve been there! Yes, there may be times that you may need to vent to a friend or they may need to vent to you, but spit it out and move on!  Don’t dwell on it! Stay away from the “misery loves company” attitude!

Figure out a solution to fix it or look at it differently, adjust your sails, change your perception.  Remember, there is always someone else who has it much worse! Sometimes the thing that you thought was bad or you didn’t get what you want, may end up being the best thing that ever happened to you.  Look at life in the BIG-PICTURE scheme of things. This allows you to see things differently.  Many of the best poets, authors, and famous people throughout the ages have given us quotes about life and how they perceived it.

“Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.” ~ Charles Swindoll

CHANGE YOUR PERCEPTION

If you change the way you perceive what is happening, then you can respond better and have better experiences.  Gratitude elevates, energizes, inspires and transforms us.  There may be some days and certain circumstances that you may feel it’s harder to practice a heart of gratitude and thankfulness, but ultivating an attitude of appreciation for the blessings life has to offer, no matter how small they may be, brings you back to the present moment and allows more space to open up to all that there is to be grateful for.

ACTION STEPS:

  1. Recognize gratitude as an attitude of the new self.
  2. Think about something in the past that you felt was bad that happened to you, and when you look back, have you seen things unfold that were perhaps for a greater purpose.  What did you learn from it?
  3. What things seem to fall into place effortlessly for you?
  4. Make a commitment to living a life of gratitude, add it to your daily routine.

Want to Find Your Purpose? 5 Questions to Ask Yourself

Every person is born with purpose

“The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out” (Proverbs 20:5). 

All people are made in the image of God. Each of us are born with a purpose and calling that we can discover or completely miss.  Your purpose is not outside of you, it’s inside!  First, you must understand who you are, because you are here to be you, there is no one else like you! You are here to embrace all of who you are and to bring your energy and let you light shine onto the world.

Here are 5 questions to ask yourself to get started!

ACTION STEPS

  1. What is it that you love to do? Think as far back as a child and what you liked to do, write down everything you can think of, it doesn’t have to be fancy, just a simple list.
  2. What are you passionate about that you are willing to struggle for to attain it?
  3. What are you so engrossed in that time just seems to fly when you are doing it and you get so caught up in it that you don’t have time to eat or even go to the bathroom and you want to cancel all of your appointments for the day?
  4. What do you want people to remember about you or what desires do you have to be an impact on the world?
  5. Fast forward to the end of your life, what is it that you would like to leave as a legacy for yourself?

Of course there are a lot more questions to ask but these are a few to get you started and thinking about it.  I will continue to add more questions in another post…standby!

Remember to believe in yourself!  Rome wasn’t built in a day, so don’t get overwhelmed or anxious about figuring out how to fulfill your purpose in a day.  Each day is a gift, and use it wisely if you want to manifest your purpose, passion and dreams.  Little by little, step by step it will happen.

I must stress again that everything doesn’t have to be perfect, don’t be too hard on YOU.  DON’T WAIT, THE TIME IS NOW!  I’m guilty of this,  I would wait until I was all set in how I thought things should be, I pondered and would fret over it! I finally decided to just let go and be the best I could be even if something wasn’t designed good or sound good as I told myself I was being too much of a perfectionist! I was afraid of what people would say or judge me.

Of course we know, we are always going to be judged so you might as well just accept that!   Don’t let it hinder you and your calling!  I realized there will always be someone who is more educated, who makes things look better, ya da ya da ya da!!  Hope that makes sense, I’m just being real!
