This episode is part two of an impromptu series I started on potential. This is a word that I've grown up using but really disliking. It's something that a lot of us ADHDers have nightmares about no doubt. This episode starts to look at another way of thinking about "potential" and why we might have been misled to what it actually means and why.
What I'm learning:
1. Potential is about the future but we get stuck in the past
2. Potential should be set by us and no one else
3. Potential should inspire us, not shame us
4. Potential isn't actually attainable - and that's a good thing!
5. Reaching potential should never have been the goal
6. Potential should grow and change as we do
