How To Unlock Your Potential and Create Your Ideal Self

Chances are that, secretly, you know you are capable of so much more. Maybe you know exactly what you want to do – you already have an idea of your ideal life. But is it possible to unlock your potential and create your ideal self?

Perhaps you’re experiencing something like this – You know exactly what you need to do, and still, something is holding you back? If that’s the case, this article will give you some ideas on how to think less and act more, so as to unlock your full potential.

We will look at your potential in all areas of life – health, wealth, goals, relationships. Maybe you are already starting to unfold your talents in some of these? Or, maybe you are at the beginning of your journey and have only the strong inner voice telling you that you are capable of more.

Either way, you’re on your way to creating your ideal self. But how do you unlock all your potential to do so?

What Is Your Ideal Self?

Before we dive into the topic, let’s define what your ideal self is. Your ideal self is who you ultimately want to become. It’s the best version of you in every situation.

What your ideal self looks like is entirely up to you. It can begin anywhere, from losing weight, quitting smoking, or being more emotionally stable – to being the best friend or partner you could be.

But if you never thought about your ideal self before, you have to envision it first. Only when you know who you want to be can you actually become it.

Cary Grant said it best:

I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until, finally, I became that person. Or he became me.

Your focus expands. So, if you have a clear vision of your ideal self and focus on it, you will ultimately become that person.

However, achieving your ideal self-state doesn’t happen overnight. In fact, it’s an ongoing process and you’ll probably never fully reach your ideal – your ideal self keeps growing as you grow. But it is this growth process that will give you fulfillment.

So, what you can do is aim towards your ideal self. In order to do so, you have to unlock your potential.

Everything you need is already inside you – you just don’t yet know how to use it. We want to show you how to unlock all your potential and truly go after your ideal.

Analyze Your Current Self

The first step to unlocking your potential and getting a sense of your ideal self is to analyze who you currently are. This takes deep introspection.

How do you act and behave currently? Do you like yourself? How much more potential do you think you have?

Be honest with yourself –  the more accurate your self-assessment is, the better you can work on unlocking your potential. This encompasses all areas of your life –  career, finances, as well as your feelings.
