We all have a ton of potential, how do we best make use of it? Here's a short list of methods I've come up with:
1. Passion - It helps greatly if the thing you're trying to be good at is also something you're passionate about, as it makes it seem a lot less like work and we want to spend more time doing it, whether singing, or fitness, or cooking, etc...
2. Effort - We have to put in the work, some of us more than others.
3. Opportunity - Many famous people became that way because someone noticed their potential and took them to the next level. Shania Twain's first CD was okay, her second was historical, and it's because she was noticed by a top notch producer in between the two who could bring out her potential much better than the producer before.
Anyway, I've always been intrigued by those who have lived amazing lives and have always wondered how they got there, how did they reach their potential. Do you have any thoughts?
