Reaching Your Potential – It’s
your Month!
by:
Marjorie Geiser
Did you know it was your month?
It sure is! It is “Reach your potential” month!
I believe
that there is greatness in every single one of us. Zig Zigler is great at
telling stories about ordinary people accomplishing great things.
Why not you?
Before you
can live up to your potential greatness, however, you have to be clear what
you’d like to create! What is your vision for your life? What legacy would you
like to leave behind? What would you like colleagues and family members to say
about you when you’re gone? Close your eyes and imagine: If there were no fear
of failure, what would you do? There’s your vision, your legacy, your greatness.
So I’ll ask
the question again: What do you imagine doing in your life? The next question
can sometimes be even tougher, though: Are you working towards what you imagine?
I present you
with a challenge:
If you are
working towards your dream, step higher. Do what you still think you cannot do.
Just one step is all it takes to get started.
If you have
not started working towards what you imagine, take that first step, today! It
might be something as simple as writing it down.
As you take
those steps, envision reaching your potential. See it, sit down and perform a
‘mental simulation’ of what it looks like. Break it down into what you will do,
today, so that you can gradually look back and celebrate reaching your potential
this month, the first month of the year!
