Have You Realized Your True Potential?

 

"According to Aristotle, man's proper goal in life is to fulfill his potential,to realize his true nature or personality to the utmost and thus to attain perfection.  An individual who fails to do this will suffer discontent as a consequence of his thwarted goals;  his sense of frustration will show itself in the form of illness or unhappiness.  On the other hand, the person who has realized his potential nature will experience happiness as a concomitant of fulfillment."
