#83 Pursuing Your Potential
As a human being you have the incomparable privilege of pursuing your potential!\n\nSadly many of us go along through life unaware of the privilege and so we merely exist in survival mode and ultimately fall far short of where we could have arrived.\n\nThoreau said \u201cmost men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with their song still in them.\u201d\n\nNot only is it a blessing and privilege and opportunity, but it\u2019s also a responsibility and a moral obligation. Think of what you could achieve. Think of the lives you could influence. Think of who you could become if you vigorously embraced the pursuit of the privilege of your potential!\n\nYour very best self is inside of you! It is not external to you. And it is your privilege to manifest it, to create it, to make it happen!\n\nNone of us wants to get to the end of our lives, or even to the end of this year, and realize that we had lived far below our potential!
