Potential

Sometimes people will say that someone has potential, but what they're really seeing is someone who is starting to exercise their potential. Because people say that when they see someone on the verge, standing on a mountain top, getting ready to fly -- awake, alert, interested. It's an exciting thing to see.

We all have potential. But what gets you to that point where people can see it and you can feel it? Maybe it is a big, hairy, audacious goal. I love that phrase, which I must have heard somewhere. Looking it up just now, I find that it was in Jim Collin's book, Built to Last. Shades of The Tipping Point! It has infiltrated the language. I didn't even know where it came from.
