Undeceive the self.
Do not regard your abilities at all. Take every opportunity to be a more full self.
Modern living makes mediocrity easy living. If that’s fine for you, you will be in good company.
If you truly want to reach your “full potential” comfort, convenience, and congratulations are your enemy. Do things the hard way and for your own reasons, and you will then know the accomplishment as your own.
- markus_zhang 4y agoI'm wondering how can one reach or close to full potential?
- inphovore 4y agoDecades of refinement. Take good care of yourself (as your mind body link is not to be denied.) Learn everything that interests you in great depth (not merely superficial familiarity.) Live lean (for excess and frivolousness will undo your best efforts.) And remember, decades!
- fuzzfactor 4y agoLooks like some good philosophy for long-term improving abilities. Easier said than done but I agree.
- markus_zhang 4y agoThanks. It's indeed very hard.
