Unfortunately, this seems to be a huge theme in my life. In the past, it would eat away at me until I was dragged to the very bottom of a sad and disappointing place.
I’m constantly reminded of how many times I’ve wasted potential in pursuing something. Things that truly interest me at the time, but I did nothing about it.
At one point, that was creating artwork for T-shirts.
I never knew I would have liked it until I tried and actually enjoyed the process. I probably did it for 2 months maximum, and stopped. I can’t remember why I stopped especially since it’s something I ended up enjoying. But it’s something that I never explored the full potential of since I didn’t stay consistent.
When I think back, there were way too many instances where something like this occurred. I’d find something I enjoy doing, pursue it for a short period of time, and when it discontinues I never get to see the true potential of where that would have taken me.
While I’m sure I can’t be the only one who has fallen to the trap of inconsistency, I hope my writing about it serves as a reminder to not waste any of your potential. Whether that’s creating content, working hard on a project, or anything that peaks your interest.
After all, life isn’t just about the downfalls and series of unfortunate events. It’s more about what you end up doing as you come out of those times.
