AT THE EDGE OF YOUR SKILLS

Where is your greatest challenge in terms of unleashing your potentials? Where is the place where you could develop your next passion for life? This is what I wrote years ago in Creative Solutions (2017).

“The place where your motivation, inspiration, interest, and engagement are optimally activated is at the edge of your skills. In the flow zone your skills are stretched so they can rise up to meet a challenge. Consequently, there you are fully engaged and fully present.” (2017, p. 198)

Consider that—the edge of your skills. Typically that’s precisely where most people think they are at their potential, and they have reached the limit of their talent and skills. But you are not most people. You know something that they do not. You know that when you get to a peak of your knowledge or skills—you are on the threshold of your next development. That’s what the dynamic process of ‘unleashing’ is all about. And that’s why ‘the genius state’ which is the Neuro-Semantic model for understanding the synergistic relationship between meaning and performance comes in.
