To get the things we need to be completed quickly, efficiently, and to reach our full potential we must know what to think on; 2 corinthians 10 v 5 tells us to refute arguments, theories, reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the true knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ.
Did you know that you are capable of so much more than you are doing now? Tapping into the full potential is something you can easily learn with practice. By doing this, you can harness your potential to complete tasks and go about your life with ease. When you tap into all you are capable of you will learn how to focus on what really matters so you can get more done quickly and efficiently.
Romans 12:2 states to not be conformed to this world, but be transformed, changed by the entire renewal of your mind, so that you may prove for yourselves what is the good and acceptable and the perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect in His sight for you.
Tapping Into the Full Potential.
Do you ever complete a project and then do it over again when you realized you made many silly little mistakes? Most of the time we laugh at ourselves and wonder what we were thinking, but it sure would be nice to get things done in one try without having to re-do tasks over and over again.
This is all the more reason we need to constantly improve our thinking so we can accomplish things faster with the least amount of effort.
Turn off the distracting chatter
The first thing you need to do when you want to tap into your full potential is to turn off the noise. Philippians 4 v 8 tells us to think on; whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honourable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there are any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things, to fix your minds on them.
The reference to noise isn’t necessarily the music playing in the room or the television you have on in the background, it’s the noise in your mind! All of the negative thoughts and worries that distract you and take you away from your concentration are all noises. Turn off the noise when you need to harness all your energy to complete a difficult task. Any time a thought misdirects you, immediately write it down, and get back on task.
Make a Prioritized List
The next strategy is to prioritize the items you really need to do right away. Being able to create a plan of attack will help you to reach the potential of your abilities when you need them the most. You will be able to focus on the task at hand when you know that everything has its place on paper. This will enable you to devote your time to what you are doing so you can enjoy your work without worrying about what’s up ahead. You’ll also be more efficient and effective when it comes to completing the tasks in front of you since everything will have its own time and place.
Philippians 4 v 6 tells us to not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.
Set your mind on what is above.
Another great way to tap into your full potential is to use affirmations, to turn off the negative inner dialogue that you have running through your head and replace it with positive thoughts to keep you moving forward.
Colossians 3v2 tells us to set our minds and keep them set on what is above, the higher things, not on the things that are on the earth.
Many of us don’t realize how ineffective negative thoughts make us. These thoughts can distract us and keep us from doing the things we want or need to do. An affirmation such as, “My lasting success is my focus” can help you tap into your confidence so you can get things done. Over time, using these principles will turn off any negative thoughts so you can accomplish more and reach greater levels of success.
