Personal Thoughts on Potential
Potentials are the gifts, the talents, the endowments,
the riches, the resources as well as the blessings inherent in a human that are
yet to be expressed in his/her actions, interactions and works. Once these find
expression, they cease to be called potential and then become skills and
abilities.–
Babatunde Oladele
The
fear of not 'starting rightly' is what keeps many a great man and woman from
fulfilling their potential. It is what also robs us of ideas and solutions that
could have made the world a better place for you and me. I will say, start; if
you fail, start again and improve yourself (and your process) along the way.
The tortoise makes no progress unless it juts out its head. After all, the
Bible says, "the end of a thing is better than the beginning
thereof." – Babatunde Oladele
Life
is a marathon, but some live it as if it's a 100metre dash; that is why you see
some people with so much potential in their youth looking so ordinary in
midlife. They have burned out. – Babatunde Oladele
A
potential is what you can become. – Babatunde Oladele
