Exploring our own potential actually won't be that difficult as long as we have the will and ability to know what we can do with something we have mastered. Because someone can certainly judge themselves in this matter, especially if they have previously taken a course that can direct them to become better in life, even though some people may still not be able to give advice to others. However, that doesn't mean that some people can't see opportunities and use them well for themselves, because everyone will definitely care more about themselves before starting to care about other people in any case.
Agree. Exploring your true potential, the most important thing is to have the will. Because actually why do we sometimes focus more on weaknesses than strengths. Because we feel unappreciated or humiliated, this makes us prioritize our weaknesses. one of the reasons we prioritize weaknesses is that we don't want to get out of our comfort zone.
To find out our potential. Many people focus on their weaknesses to the point of forgetting their strengths. (The impact: we often make wrong decisions, and are not confident. And often feel dissatisfied with the efforts we make). Many people think that potential is their subordinate from birth, so many people feel hopeless. In fact, one's potential can be explored and studied. For example, when you do something well, enjoy doing something without pressure, and have your own satisfaction when doing it.
But in essence these three things can be learned. The important thing is that you believe you can change and move forward first, then you will discover your potential.
I agree with you, in my environment there are many young people who are trapped in their comfort zone, so they are reluctant to move forward to experience change. even though it is for their own good and not for anyone else's. I think young people today still have a high sense of pride so they are reluctant to take action that triggers change, not many young people have the will to be able to look for new things on their own, many young people today are already at home in their comfortable situation even though it doesn't generate any profit.
Occasionally I have heard "searching for identity" often said by parents who are advising their children or young people who are gathered together. I think that sentence is true, we must live with a purpose where finding one's identity is one of the goals in life. It's true what you say we have to have confidence in ourselves first to be able to change for the better then only then can we explore the potential that exists within us to make changes for the better.
