A runner trains for months for his upcoming race.
His coach pushes him and explains how he can achieve his full potential.
The days of training, sweating, and pain, all accumulate to one moment:
The day of the race.
At the starting line he can hear the shouts of the crowd.
He can hear the shuffling of feet from the other competitors.
He can hear the pounding of his own heart.
His anxiety starts to flare as the man at the starting line raises the gun.
Will he be able to live up to all of the expectations he placed on himself?
Will he realize his full potential?
The gun explodes and the race starts.
Not everyone is a professional athlete.
Not everyone is a tycoon of industry.
However, every person has the potential to be the best at whatever they set their hearts on.
This can create a fear where failure is possible.
It can also create a fear that if success is not met, then there has been a monumental waste of potential.
Just like training for a race, life has its moments of easy days and hard days.
There are days where it feels like everything is going great and days where it feels like the whole world is crashing down.
Life itself is a marathon, not a sprint.
It takes time to build up potential and truly understand who you are in relation to the world.
Over the course of your life, have you found yourself living to your potential?
Do you believe that it is out of your reach?
Do you fear that you will never achieve it?
Join Oleg and Luke as they discuss the potential of everyone and the fears we harbor along the way.
