Fulfilment – Unlocking Your Full Potential

Potential means having or showing the capacity to develop into something in the future.

It is the latent qualities or abilities that may be developed, and when developed, can lead to future success or usefulness. Your Potential is not just a vague concept; it’s a roadmap to your ultimate life goal(Destiny). Recognising and actively developing your potential puts you in the driver’s seat of your destiny.  

Potential is a key input, and fulfilment is the output. Potential is the catalyst; fulfilment is the outcome. Potential is the raw material; fulfilment is more like the finished goods.

However, a few factors must come into play to enhance, fertilise, and transform your potential into fulfilment. Let’s quickly run through a few of these factors.

Potential can be applied to various aspects of life, including individuals, organisations and systems.

To be fulfilled in life, five things must happen to your Potentials.

1. Materialise Your Potential- Identify, recognise, appreciate, and acknowledge your potential. You must not only appreciate what you have but also value it. Appreciating you potential is the first step towards confidence and self-assurance. 

Here, you consciously expose yourself to your potential and expose your potential to yourself.

Constantly seek out opportunities to utilise and enhance your potential. Mostly at his stage you are behind the scene.

2. Manifest your Potential by consciously seeking out opportunities to test, express and improve upon yourself in respect of your potential. For instance, if you have a potential for leadership, you could volunteer for leadership roles in your community or at work. Potential is nothing without the exercise thereof. Therefore, you must seize opportunities for expression.  This means making the best use of an available resource. In this case, your potential. You will have to fine-tune and perfect your capabilities by the continuous and effectual execution of relevant tasks that will increase your efficiency and productivity. The only way to deliver is to deliver.

3. Markup (Value) Your Potential- This has to do with value and pricing.

What is the value proposition of what you offer? Value reveals or establishes worth, and pricing places a quantifiable amount on that worth. A well-honed potential, directed to whatever end, is a potential income generator for the “Potentate”

The question is, how will/do you price yourself? Why bill 50,000GBP when you can bill 1,000,000GBP? Why settle for less?

4. Multiply Your Potential- Duplicate your Package. Duplicating your potential is the simultaneous manifestation of what you can do, a distributable and replicable representation of your potentials.

Find a way to make your Potentials productive even while you sleep. Subject your Potentials to systems and structures that enable their efficient manifestations.

5. Market and Maximise Your Potential – Simply put, sell your capacity to as many people as possible, sell it as often as you can and sell it with all the passion there is. This is not just about selling, it’s about being proactive and entrepreneurial in how you present and utilise your potential.

Potential is the Bedrock of Fulfilment – your impressions are just a notch lower than reality, most people downplay their capabilities, in a bid to be modest or not appear forward. It should be the other way round, you have to verbalise your core skillset, noise it abroad, voice it, solicited or not. Nobody lights a lamp and puts it under a table. So do all it takes to develop your potential and ride it all the way to the destination called fulfilment.
