Understanding human potential is just as important as understanding both human nature and human desire. Helping others realize their potential is one of the greatest quest we could ever undertake. There are two levels of human potential.
- Individual Potential
- Multiplied (Leveraged) Potential
Individual Potential
Potential means capable of being or unused power. Another way to say it potential is unrealized power or capability. Potential is what you could do, but you haven’t done it yet. Each individual has potential. Each one has a capacity to do somethings they have not already done. Potential can be described as dormant ability that can be developed and used.
You potential is based upon two things. First thing is how you think, the second is what you ask for. If you thinking directly effects your individual potential. What ever you think you can do, you can possibly do it and what every you think you can not do then you will most likely be unable to do. Your thinking will help enable you or disable you. “As a man thinks, so is he”. You are what and how you think.
The other thing we said your potential is based on is what you ask for out of life. If you ask for nothing, what will the results be. “You ask not, you will receive not”. The other side of that coin is if you ask you receive, therefore be careful what you ask for.
Multiplied Potential (Leaverage)
Multiplied potential is the result when multiple individuals come to together and realize their potential. To better understand multiple potential we need to understand two things addition and multiplication. Addition is the act or process of adding or uniting.
Multiplication is the process to increase in the amount, number or degree.
