Sometimes I feel that high potential capabilities can also
turn into curse when not managed properly. Have you met a person who has shown
real talent and high potential as a kid, but is going through series of
failures and major setbacks later in life?
When you are young and perform well, especially as per
societal norms, there is so much appreciation around and you start liking it.
People praising gives your confidence a boost and you do even better. But after
some time when you step out of the comfort zone and walk straight into the Real
world, the reality hits you hard on your face. And suddenly those words of
appreciation start fading. That’s when the real challenge starts. As an
individual, you rely so much on encouraging words and suddenly they are nowhere
to be found. You get weighed down by the Expectations! And thus, I wonder, how efficiently
we damage the capable mind and make it follow the same rules, for which it was
never meant to. Has the Capable Mind become curse for that individual?
