4 Simple Ways to Unleash Your Maximum Potential

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to embrace who you are? Wouldn’t your life be great if you have discovered your full potential and you can achieve whatever goals you set your mind for? 

We all want to be the best. No one likes being mediocre. We desire to have an extraordinary standard of living. However, despite our goal of living a successful life, we are often hindered by our fears and our insecurities. Starting today, you will not be living a life of regret, but of success and motivation.

Here are some simple ways to help you unleash your greatest potential:

1. Have a vision and achieve it.

Remember: there is a purpose and goal in everything you should be doing. Start with that. Assess your intentions and figure out what you want to be and achieve in your life. Without a clear vision, you will just be like a headless chicken who has no idea of where you are going. Knowing what you want to accomplish in life and who you want to be will help you discover your full potential.

2. Dream bigger.

To unleash your potential, you need to dream bigger because when you dream big, your problem becomes small. When you let go of any second guessing and what others tell you can or cannot; should or should not, you step into the power of possibilities. Avoid comparing yourself to other people because your only competitor in this life is yourself. Be curious and question how you can be a better version of yourself than yesterday. Have fun in the journey and believe on the person you’ve meant to be. Hunger for growth, not the outcome. You will then realised you can achieve your dream at ease.

3. Be confident.

When you are not confident, there is no way that you can discover your true potential. Having more confidence allows you to perform better in anything you do. When you operate from being the greater version of you, you get to focus on discovering who you get to become in the process. The rest is just a fun and exhilarating adventure of discovering yourself. If you do things in this manner, people’s judgement, rejection, criticism will not be able to shake you.

4. Pursue personal growth.

Learning and growth never stops. Even as you age, it is always good to invest in yourself. To unleash your potential, you have to continuously develop your skills, learn new things, and prioritize your personal growth.

It Is Okay To Not Be Okay

Life is not perfect. Each one of us goes through times in our lives when we feel we are at our lowest, darkest moments. And that’s okay. It is perfectly okay to not be okay. You know why? Because you do not have to get stuck in that dump that you’re in, because we all are imperfect human beings here to learn what life truly means. No matter how much life sucks and how bad things are for you at the moment, the beauty of it is – the gain is exponential if you choose to learn from it and bounce back. Every low end is a perfect opportunity to reach the next height, the next level of potential.

The truth remains – Life is beautiful, without darkness we will not learn to appreciate the light, without sorrow, we will not able to learn what joy truly means. Recognize that all people have tough days and experience bad events. Even the luckiest and successful people experience unfortunate events. This is the moment for you to choose to step into your will power to change and react or give in to darkness which means give your power away to circumstances and others. And there is always hope. If you choose to see it.If you give yourself a chance.

In times when you feel like drowning in an open sea, or locked up in a prison cell, what do you do? Even in this darkness moment like this when you feel choice is so limited, you still have choice to choose what experience you want to get out of it. Will you choose to just stay there and let yourself drown and sink down to the bottom of the sea or will you choose to experience calm and think for a way out? Will you scream your lungs out, cry for help to get out of the prison or choose to experience peace and think for a way out? The choice is yours.

The first step to solving a problem is acknowledging that you have a problem. You will not know where or how to start taking action when you do not even admit to yourself that you have a problem. Acknowledge that we all are imperfect human beings. It’s okay to be judged, to fail and learn and be better. Start by asking yourself. What is it that has been bugging you, making you restless and giving you sleepless nights? Recognize where the struggles come from. Why you are feeling what you are feeling. Why you are doing what you’ve been doing.

After recognizing and acknowledging the problem, you have to believe that you have a choice. You always have a choice. A choice to walk away from that misery. The choice to change and be better. The choice to move forward and slowly seek for  what it is that you want to achieve. Who you decide to be, where you decide to put your focus and attention on, what perspectives you choose to hold? You always have a choice. You can choose to stay miserable or you can choose to see the silver lining and see the learning of every possibility to growth.

Now, think about what it is exactly you want to achieve. If it is happiness, what exactly will make you happy? What are the options you have in order to be happy? What will bring you peace, happiness, freedom or all three? What will it take to get there? What do you need to let go to experience all that?

Now, take action. Get up. I understand it is painful to get up from the pain but the thing is, if you don’t get up you know for sure what you going to get – in the same pain. Nothing changes. Rise from the dump you are sitting on. Often times, taking action entails change. And the first step towards change is to access and examine within yourself. What are the stories and perspectives that no longer serve you and should be let go? What are the things that you should stop doing? If you continue to do what you’ve been doing, nothing will change.

You see, most people have the habit of just waiting for circumstances to change before taking any action. Without taking action to change the circumstances, nothing will happen. You will just be doomed to stay in those miserable circumstances. And they say misery loves company. If you spend time with people who are as miserable as you are, you will become even more miserable. Choose your circle. Spend time with people who are positive and passionate about life. In no time, you will begin to be like them.

Now, make that change. Step into your will power and own your life, be the person you always meant to be. I believe that every imperfect human being are born for a purpose to experience a meaning of life that means for them. Be curious, enjoy the process, in life there’s no failure but only learning. Start taking steps towards achieving that dream. That goal. And don’t settle for less than what you deserve. Dream big. Set high goals. When your dream is big, your problem becomes smaller. 

I invite you to think again, “You always have a choice”. Now make the choice that what’s best for you. Make that change. Help yourself. Life is short. Start now 🙂
