TEN STEPS TO DEVELOP YOUR POTENTIAL EVERY DAY
1 Choose a life of growth. To develop your potential it is not just to focus on the ‘being’, it is necessary to grow the ‘being’. Decide now and plan to be better at what you are or want to ‘be’.
2 Begin to grow TODAY. Because growth is not automatic it is imperative that you take the responsibility today for developing your potential. Is not just saying, “I will”, but is about asking, what are you doing today to make it happen? Staying in the same place is not growing, it’s being stuck.
3 Assume a learner’s attitude. You may possess comprehensive knowledge and/or be an “expert” on some area. However, believe you know everything only limits you not to grow infinitely, because you believe you know everything. For instance, be a better parent, professional, human being, etc.
4 Focus on your personal development. When your focus is on this area you will reach the destination you want for yourself. Discover your potential if you have not done it (we all have it) and start every day to exploit your potential!!
5 Do not settle for today’s achievements. Be glad of them, but do not settle. Has it not occurred to you that after reaching a goal, you ask, “What now?”. Enjoy your success and continued to growth.
6 Be a continuous learner. To continue to grow you have to keep up with what’s new. It is not enough what you learn today. Remember that information is always in transformation. To improve it is necessary to learn new skills.
7 Focus only on those issues important to you. Select only those issues you have a passion and interest. They are part of you. Do not be distracted by “everything”. Ask yourself what are the areas you want to limit yourself to grow.
8 Developing a growth plan. Set a time for this and keep it. According to Earl Nightingale, “if a person will spend an hour on the same subject for five years, will be an expert in these matters.” So if you want to grow you have to plan and book the time for it.
9 Pay the price. Success requires effort, initiative and action. If you want to grow, a life outside the comfort zone is necessary. After all, you deserve it.
10 Find a way to apply what you learn. Is not enough to just learn. All this learning must be applied. When you learn something, put it into practice to develop your potential! Otherwise, why did you learn it for?
