Potential

Potential is hope and promise towards success. It is not success itself, but more like what success is possible. One must have hope in something for it to be successful. Without this hope, potential is wasted. Nothing can ever be successful if no one believes success is possible. So potential comes in as a means of what can be possible. For potential to really matter, the vision must be realistic. For instance, not every seed or sapling grows to be full and complete plants or trees. When you see something that has potential, it means you see something greater than what something originally is. This kind of thinking is always wishful and promising. How you get someone or something to realize (or even exceed) its potential depends on your ability to make magic happen.

Here is a unique case for me. There was a device in the mid-late 2000s that was heavily backed by funds. It was called the OUYA- an Android gaming console. It was a chance for independent game developers to develop games for this gaming console. However, it became an utter failure in the eyes of many people. I, for one, was intrigued at the possibility of developing my own game for the OUYA. The OUYA essentially was bought out by the Razer Forge TV. Then some of a lot of the developed games ended up with this Chinese firm. Still- the main point of all of this was the vision of making quality (or what was deemed as quality) games for the OUYA. If I didn't see the potential and try to recognize that potential, then I never would have bought an OUYA in the first place.

Now for another realistic example of potential. "John's Life Space"- which you are reading now, is my latest blog. I have potential to try to grow it to be as much as my other blogs. How do I realize that potential? For one, I at least have to keep the content flowing. Everything else hinges on how the rest of the world views my material and makes it popular. The potential of all of my blog here is there- will it be realized? It's up to you!

Part of potential is in realizing it. The other part of potential is working to make whatever vision possible. You still have to have a vision of making something better than what it is at present. Once potential is realized, how do you act to make something better? That all is up to you. This is true whether you are trying to tap into the potential of someone or something, or if you you are trying to find potential within yourself. Either way, the quest to make good things better is a long and grueling task. But regardless, ANYTHING is possible once potential is realized and tapped into. So keep working to make the impossible possible!
