WHO ARE YOU?

-

We are living our life in the person we become. We become a teacher, doctor, lawyer or preacher and each one of these person we become have different life. We go through academics or other means to become the person we want to be. We get taught things that will build us into a doctor or preacher. The reason why we chase after becoming is because we do not know who we are, we try to fit into a person through becoming hoping that the person we become will come to be who we are. We are trying to fit into different kinds of people because of the unawareness of who we are. There is no room for becoming when you know who you are, all you have to do is just be who you are which means that you do not have to go through academics or others means, you do not have to be taught anything. If who you are is a preacher, what this implies is that you have the knowledge and capability of preaching, all you have to do is tap into it. This is what we know as innate potential, when you use your innate potential, you are simply being who you are and what you get from the outside like academics or training firm is just to help grow who you are like how a baby is nurtured and fed so it grows.

BEING WHO YOUR ARE NOT

The greatest mistake we commit is in who we become, what if the person we become is not the person we are created to be and so we live the life of someone that is not really us. This is the cause of the untapped potential because being someone that is not you will result to you not utilizing the potential of who you are.
     The teachers struggle to teach, the preachers struggle to preach, the musicians struggle to make music, this is all because you are trying to tap into a potential that you do not have and not yours to have. What makes you survive and flourish in the person you become is the ability to utilize the potential of that person. You can only be a preacher when you can preach, what I am trying to let you see is that what you cannot do, you cannot become and so when you become a person that you are not, the first sign you discover is your inability to function well as that person because you do not have the potential that makes you be or flourish well as that person. Who are you? This is the question that we all need to ask ourselves because when we do not know who we are, we become someone we are not. You do not live your life by being someone, you live your life by being you, are you living as someone else? What we have been taught is to become someone great in life and we are put in school to facilitate the realization of this goal, we have never been told to be who we are. The reality of the matter is most of us are living someone else’s life and this is one of the cause of many doing the same thing but some doing way better than others. You can only be at your best when you do you and you can only have a great life when you live as who you are.
     Creativity is only unleashed when you utilize the potential of who you are but before you can be creative, you have to be you. Imagine the number of creative ideas that are dormant and the untapped potential because of us being who we are not. You may be doing what others are doing but there will be creativity in theirs because they are tapping into their innate potential, creativity sets a vivid difference between your work and theirs and so the second sign is that you cannot be creative with what you do. To be creative you must be tapping from your innate potential and you can only tap into something that you have at your disposal.
Now I understand why so many of us cannot be creative, it is not that we do not want to be but we have become the person we are not and doing the things that are outside of our potential. What creativity does is to bring something new out of something and the discovery of this new thing adds to how a thing can be done which will be of a merit to the one who discovered or executed it. Your inability to be creative will make you do a thing exactly like others and because you are not adding to how a thing can be done, you live in obscurity of what you do.
   When who we are begins to grow, it is observed from the level of fame, recognition, achievements, notoriety attained. There is no growth when you are living as someone else because the act of growing is the  increase in the level at which you utilize your innate potential which implies that who you are grows by the level at which your innate potential is been utilized this is why it is wise to be with people that will enable you do more with your potential but when you do not have the potential of the person you have become, you do not grow and so you have less or no fame, recognition or notoriety, and  so the last sign is that you would not grow bigger or better living as the person you are not or doing what your potential does not permit you.

DOOR OF LIFE

-

The door conceals what’s on the inside from the people standing outside and sometimes what’s outside of us, our situation or circumstances is the door that conceals what’s on the inside of us, our greatness. When we are raised with this door, it becomes hard for us to see that who we are can be more than what we are with the door. In this predicament of life comes a belief in ourselves we must indoctrinate. The act of believing in yourself is you having hope that there is more to you on the inside than the you outside the door even though you do not yet see it and when you indulge in this action, it is the force that makes you fight, struggle, sacrifice and claw your way out of your situation because the you on the inside has given hope to the outside you that there is something beyond your present situation that is better and this something can be seen as our dreams and vision because they are in fact something better that’s beyond our situation. If you do not believe in yourself

LIVING OUTSIDE PURPOSE

Living outside purpose is one of the things we all are caught doing. We do this because we have no clue to what our purpose is and so we try to become an airplane when we really are a shoe not realizing that we do not in any way have the parts of a plane to be one and we walk our life on this erroneous path to explain to ourselves that we lack the awareness of our potential. An artist cannot become a songwriter but he will only struggle to be one when he does not know his potential. There will be a lack of something in a place outside your purpose that is required of you and while you struggle to stay in that place, you will never be able to sense fulfillment or happiness because the place does not demand the use of your potential but rather puts it to sleep and that nagging feeling that there is something more than this, is the snoring sound of the sleeping potential inside of you that needs to be awaken by living on purpose. The act of utilizing your gifting is the result of your

SELF DISCOVERY

  We know so much about everything happening outside of us but little of what’s taking place on the inside, we are so inquisitive about people and never paying attention to ourselves. As we begin to live in the ages of life, our physical appearance changes because it knows that there is something more to it that must be reached and the only way it can become the more is by growing. Growing refers to the change that comes with you becoming the more you perceive of yourself and so it is possible to change and not grow when you aren’t aware of the more to you than you know. Iphone 7 grows into Iphone 8 because it has become the more of itself and so there is a change in the appearance to validate that. The change we experience on the outside is a validation that we are indeed growing but nowadays we want to look more rather than be more, being pretentious in our speaking, actions and dressings. To change to what you see on the outside is to only look more, to change to the person you
