✅#Topic: 10 BASIC STEPS TO UNLOCK YOUR FULL POTENTIAL AS A CHRISTIAN. 

🔓Curled from my incoming book on #SelfDiscovery 

1. ACKNOWLEDGE GOD IN YOUR LIFE FIRST.😊

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things you desire will be added unto you (Matthew 6:33). Every good and perfect gift is from above (James 1:17). Meaning, your career, skills, and opportunities are gifts from God. If you want to be a good steward of these gifts by pursuing excellence, then the best person who can help you achieve it is no other than God. By praying and seeking His wisdom through His Word, you will have a clearer guide of how to reach your highest potential.

2. DISCOVER YOUR PURPOSE. 🤔

You need to have a sense of direction for your life. In order to do this, you need to discover what the purpose of your life is; why you exist. The only one who can answer this is God, your creator, so you need to draw closer to Him to learn more about His will and plans for your life.

3. SET GOALS. ✍️

Along the way of discovering your purpose, it is important that you set the goals that you want to achieve within a span of time. You can create short-term goals, like being able to finish a book within a week, or long-term goals, such as establishing your business in five years etc.

4. TRY TO LEARN AS MANY SKILLS ARE POSSIBLE. 🧗

Grab opportunities that will allow you to learn new skills. As availability and resources permit, enroll yourself in seminars or workshops that offer skill training. The more skills you have, the more bankable you become, plus you would never know when these skills would come in handy.

5. FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR EXISTING TALENTS/SKILLS.🏄‍♀️🏌️‍♀️

Do not settle with acquiring new skills. Taking your old talents to the next level will be a worthy investment. Upgraded skills can make you more in-demand in your career field.

6. DO NOT TAKE SHORTCUTS TO SUCCESS.🙄

Be patient with the process of promotion, not just in the office, but in life overall. For instance, no matter how excited you are to earn petty cash, do not quit school just so you can go to work already. Also, avoid under-the-table transactions, like bribing, just to get promoted at work, but rather work hard for that opportunity.

7. LET GO OF BITTERNESS TOWARDS OTHERS.🥱 

If you have grudges against some people, then forgive and wish them well. Resentment can dull the heart and it can have an impact on how you perceive life and your desire to be successful. It will make you turn those who hurt you into unknowing rivals, and your motivation for achieving your goals will be to surpass them—which is not healthy.

8. DO NOT STOP LEARNING.📖

No matter how old you become, always find an avenue to study and learn new knowledge. Technology evolves fast daily, and so does knowledge. For this reason, you need to keep yourself updated so you never get left behind.

9. BE OPTIMISTIC ABOUT YOUR FUTURE.😀

The higher the peak is, the steeper it is to the top. Reaching for your highest potential requires a strong will because the journey to it will not be easy. No matter how much you struggle in the process, be positive that you will harvest the fruit of your perseverance someday. 

10. TREAT FAILURES AS STEPPING STONES TO SUCCESS. 😎

Failures are inevitable. However, they should not be a reason to quit on your goals. Instead, you can treat them as challenges that will mold you to be more effective in your craft. Use them as a motivation to do it better next time.
