I Hate Potential

By
Education & Training with Berman & Pollinger, LLC.

Potential by very definition is ability that is untapped and unused. How sad is that? We have God-given ability and talent that is wasted each and every day. I, for one, am all about seeing myself and those around me realize and live up to everything that God has intended for them to be. I don't want an inch more and nor a millimeter less.

We are constantly limiting ourselves to what we think can be done. Ask anyone who has served our county in the Special Forces, or someone who just finished their first marathon, or the rookie salesperson who just landed the "whopper." We are capable of far more than we think we are.

Let's use some of the following questions to unlock one or two possibilities that will force us to peel back a layer of potential that is yearning to get out and be exploited.

· If you had all the money you needed, where and how would you live?
· If you had the answers to your problems, how long would it take to solve them?
· Do you have a personal or professional vision?
· If so, what is it?
· What do you think is not possible for you to achieve in this lifetime that you wish you could?
· On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the highest, how would you rate the quality of your life today?
· Using the same scale, how high will that number likely rise during your lifetime?
· What is a dream or goal that you've given up on?
· What part of you have you given up on?
· What goal or part of your life have you put on the back burner because the time isn't right? What part of you is just waiting for the right person or opportunity to catalyze it?

If we can just reawaken a small part of our potential through inspiration, dedication and a little disciplined sweat equity, imagine what the next 12 months could hold...

 

Carpe diem,

Chris

I have a handle on your market!!!
I really like the way you think.  I just finished a book you would probably relate to.  It is written by Ken Blanchard (One Minute Manager) and co authored by S. Truett Cathy (Chick-Fil-A founder).  It is called "The Generosity Factor".  I have always believed that if our mind can think it, it is possible to do.  God is the difference in anything we do.  If it is in His will, all things are possible.  Thank you for keeping us pointed in His direction.

Waiting for the time to be right? Stop waiting. How often have you heard someone say, "I wish I'd done it sooner"?

Chris,

Waiting will never accomplish anything....dreaming alone will not either.....dare to dream, live the dream, realize all you can be.
