The Invisible Medal (Part Four) Everyone Has Potential

Every human is born with at least one thing in common, Potential.?

Have you ever been inspired by stories of people who overcame incredible odds to achieve greatness?? A common denominator in most of these stories is that they had a mentor, someone who devoted time to help them achieve their potential.? There is such strong potential in every human being.? That potential will lie dormant until a leader comes along who can ignite the spark and inspire them.? Somewhere in the halls, offices, or cubicles of your organization is a person who could become a President, an inventor, a professional athlete, a servant leader.? That same person can take what they have learned from you and pay it forward to another person, thus unleashing potential in others and positively impacting our world.?

Clearly, not everyone will become the next Einstein or President; however, everyone—with the right mentor—can achieve their full potential.? Servant leaders view every person in their organization as unique, and full of potential.? Observe, I used the word everyone.? Not just those we think are high performing, high potential individuals, but everyone.? Everyone can be a high potential performer if they have a leader who strives to help everyone achieve their full potential.?

When you make a difference in someone’s life by helping them achieve their potential, they will carry that positive energy home to their families, to their friends, their co-workers, members of their church or kid’s soccer team.? Your positive influence will lead them to influence others and in no time, there will be an entire wake of positive energy created just because you took the time to make an investment in one person.? This is perhaps the greatest of any pyramid scheme ever to be created…and we all win.
