Notes
Human potential may be broken into Individual Potential and Species Potential.
According to the Lightning Path Human Development Framework, actuation of full potential requires Sufficient Satisfaction of the Seven Essential Needs, from birth through old age.[1] Failure to meet essential needs inevitably requires healing interventions from sophisticated healing frameworks.
There is, of course, the important question of "What is full human potential?" That's hard to tell because the human species has never enjoyed an optimal environment and, what's worse, the Accumulating Class have been suppressing potential for thousands and thousands of years.
Abraham Maslow provided some speculations.[2]
Nasa scientists Dr. George Land has some thoughts.[3]. View his brief talk below where he suggests that all children are born creative geniuses but that something (i.e., The System) dumbs them down.
