Potential

Your potential is limited by your capability to change perspective and perceive unseen opportunities.

All we are is all we can conceive.

Love is seeing potential in others and helping them move towards it - Viktor Frankl

Context

  • Fulfilment: Figure out what you are here to do?
  • Purpose: Set a clear vision and mission
  • Science: Use science to create technology
  • Technology: Use technology to engineer better systems
  • Habits: Use systems to live better practices
  • Startups: Team up with like-minds fill a gap in the market by fulfilling a need
  • Coach: Helping someone else is the best way to help yourself

Backcasting

Start with the end in mind. Working backward from a desired future state to visualise the path and determine what decisions are needed to get there is a powerful technique.

Picturing the destination makes the path clearer. Pre-mortems also help by projecting forward to envision how to overcome potential obstacles.
