Potential can be one of the most empty words in the world. Potential is important but what you do with your God-given talent is much more important. A person has a success or two and is labeled with potential greatness. Then the biggest trap presents itself, quitting after a victory success has made failures of many people.
once you are moving your can keep moving. Successful people know that each victory buys an admission tickets to a more challenging opportunities. The more you do, the more you can do.
Perhaps it is a good thing that you haven't seen all your dreams come true. For when you get all you wish for, you Will be miserable. To be forever reaching out, to remain unsatisfied is a key to momentum. Stop and smell the roses along the journey, Just don't stay so long that the petals have dropped, the limbs have been pruned and all that's left is the thorns.
Remember it's not what you get that makes you successful, rather it is what you are continuing to do with what you've got that's a better yardstick.
Now I ask you this question, how many people of great potential have you known? Where did they all go?
