You have infinite potential -- accept it!

We all have infinite potential. All of us. But for many people, there’s one thing that gets in the way of actually realizing that potential.

Ourselves!

In my last blog entry I mentioned that challenges in life present an opportunity for a “creative expansion” in our lives. Most – maybe even all – of the growth we experience in life comes as a result of rising to the challenges that life presents. But to experience any growth and evolution, we must first do one thing:

We must accept the challenge!

To accept a challenge is to embrace our potential. But accepting a challenge is often difficult because it necessitates a change. It takes us out of our comfort zone, and that can be scary even though we may not necessarily like the comfort zone we’re in. For many of us, it feels safer to just accept the status quo and feel that there’s no way out.

The truth is that, regardless of our circumstances in life, we always have the potential to change them. It takes time and effort – sometimes a lot of time and effort – but we can always make positive changes in our life. When we rise to the challenges that life presents us, we begin to realize the infinite potential that we all have.

Embrace your own breathtaking, infinite potential!
