My boy Fair once told me "potential is a fancy French word for you haven’t done shit yet" lol. That might be a little harsh for some but you can't say that it is not true. What does potential mean to you? For a person who has been said to have the potential to do anything, I would say potential is pressure lol another word for we are raising our expectations to the point that if you fail it will be in grand fashion. Potential is a wonderful thing to have and an awful thing to waste. I wonder how many of us reach our full potential? How many people do you know that would answer that question and say "yes, this is the best that I can do"? I do not think there are many people out there that have pushed to reach their absolute limit and I dare say that if they have then they did not have much potential to begin with.
I don't ever think I will fully reach my potential and I say this because I don’t think there is a limit to what I can accomplish. I do not believe that I will get to the point where I say "this is all I have and I don't have anything else to give"... Hell no, I can always push harder, go further, make it better. In my mind I cannot be stopped, at all... I’m sorry but it is just the truth, well it is my truth. I don’t do limitations and I can’t fathom that there will ever come a point where I max out on my abilities. Superman has no limits.
Having great potential and a sense of endless boundaries is a great thing but it does not afford you the luxury of making excuses. People tend to find great joy in proving you wrong or questioning your efforts and the resulting outcomes lol but that’s fine with me. I know that I can and I guess they wish that they could.
