REACHING YOUR
BUSINESS POTENTIAL
D
r Demartini provides
his top five tips for
achieving your
potential.
In this world, you ultimately receive
according to how much you serve and
what you feel you deserve – no more
and no less.
Building your profile in business is very
much about building your profile in life;
you need to allow yourself to become
a reflection of your ultimate potential.
While many people will promote the
techniques and strategies for getting
noticed by senior peers and/or
prospective clients, I believe it’s through
pushing yourself to be your own personal
greatest that will make people around
you want to be involved with you.
When I was just seventeen years old,
I met an inspiring elderly man who
changed my life. He taught me that
when you can see it, you can be it.
That extraordinary man gave me the
affirmation, “I am a genius and I apply
my wisdom,” and told me to say it every
day for the rest of my life.
Even though I was just a near-illiterate
young surfer at the time, I trusted him

and followed his guidance diligently.
I’ve never missed a day of saying that
affirmation in more than fourty years and
I know it’s one of the major reasons why I
am where I am, and who I am today.
What you believe in and what you say to
yourself will have a tremendous impact
on what happens to you and what kind
of life you’ll lead. You are the creator of
your own destiny and you write the script
of your life with every thought. The more
self worth and love you have for yourself,
the more prosperity and success you will
achieve.
Self worth builds both creativity and
courage. If you have great self worth,
you’ll never have to worry about
having a job, because people are
spontaneously drawn to this quality
and want to employ or work for those
who have it. In contrast, people who
complain that the world is unfair or
unjust because others are being given so
much while they’re getting so little, are
creating that situation themselves and
only they can change it.
The world is fair: you receive what
service you give. If you’re not receiving
in abundance, it’s because you’re
not giving service in abundance. You
have either results or excuses, and
By Dr John Demartini
they are mutually exclusive. If you take
responsibility for your life and ask quality
questions about how to fulfill it, you
become a magnet for opportunities.
People and money are irresistibly drawn
to energy, enthusiasm and certainty.
Here are three tops for achieving your
true potential in business:
1.
Find your purpose. Have an
inspiring vision, a message to share,
a genuine social calling, and a
targeted niche to serve. This should
be the backbone of your business.
2.
People and money are irresistibly
drawn to energy, enthusiasm and
certainty so take responsibility for
the performance of your business
and ask quality questions about
how to improve it. In doing so,
you will become a magnet for
opportunities.
3.
Find a mantra to live by that
reaffirms your belief in yourself
(e.g. “I am a genius and I apply my
wisdom”).
The truth is, you are the master of what
you love doing and the slave to what
you don’t. Only when leaders govern
themselves, can they can successfully
serve and govern others.
