Without a vision for the future, people lose their sense of worth and potential. Being good day-to-day isn't enough. The speaker argues that aiming higher for yourself, your family, and your work expands who you become, even if you fall short.
Chapters
A lot of people lost their worth because they lost their vision. Because even if I show up every day and I'm a good human every day but I've disconnected from the future. I'm not working to become more, to become more happy, more healthy, more caring, more stable, more action oriented, more for my kids, more for, more for my family, more for my team, more for the world. Not because I'm deficient now has nothing to do with efficiency deficiency or capability. It just has to do with a very simple thing called potential. And that we have so much more potential than we have and if you can accept that you go oh yeah, then that means I can become more. There's more potential for me and you know what? I'm going to stretch then I'm going to set some goals that are beyond where I am. Even if I land out a little lower, at least I aimed a little higher.
