Who: I Hate Happiness and Leaven Waking Up Community
Why: The first part of the World Health Organization's definition of mental health is a state of well-being in which every individual can achieve his or her potential.
I refused the call of exploring potential because the idea that we're not living up to our potential, or constantly questioning whether we are, is the opposite of self-acceptance, which is essential to well-being…and, ironically, realizing our potential.
But about six months ago, I crossed the threshold by changing the context of realize from "achieve or fulfill" to "recognize or understand."
Realizing our potential may not lie in pondering what remains to be achieved but in reflecting on what it took to come as far as we have.
What to Bring: A transformative skill or insight from your life.
