Not only are these ideas wonderfully inspirational, but incredibly useful as well. But how can we incorporate them into our own lives and work? We can start by asking some questions.

Let’s take a closer look:

P is for the Potential that was given to each one

• Are we living up to our full potential?
• Do we even know our full potential is?
• What can we do differently to live up to our potential?
• What is holding us back?

O is Opportunity – we must grasp it when it comes

• Are we open to new possibilities?
• Do we grab new opportunities when they are presented to us?
• What holds us back?
• Why are we afraid to try stretch outside our comfort zone?

S is the Stress we all try to relive

• Why do we tolerate the stress in our lives?
• What are the biggest stressors in our lives?
• What or who do we need to step away from?
• How can we reduce stress?

I is for the Ideals we should try to achieve

• What ideals do we wish to live by?
• How well are we doing that?
• If not, why or what is keeping us from sticking to our ideals?
• How can we cultivate a stronger connection to our true ideals?

T is the Tranquility we all find on the way

• Do we have a measure of tranquility in our lives?
• What is the lack of peace and calm costing us?
• What things or activities bring us tranquility?
• How can we incorporate those items into our lives more?

V is for the Vacuum that in our life we try to fill

• What hole are we trying to fill?
• What are we trying to fill it with?
• How is that behavior hurting?
• What could we do differently?

I is for the Instincts that we follow at will

• When do we follow our instincts and when do we not?
• What prevents us from following our gut instincts?
• What is the most difficult aspect of our lives to follow our instincts?
• How might we trust in our instincts more?

T is for the Tribulations of each day we are alive

• What is the greatest source of our tribulations?
• Are our challenges due to unforeseen circumstance or due our own behaviors?
• Is there a way we might better prepare to face life’s difficulties?
• Who might be a source of support?

Y is for a mighty YES and determination to survive

• What have we said YES to and why is it important to us?
• What have we been afraid to say YES to and why?
• Are we truly committed to our goals and desires?
• How might we develop a greater sense of perseverance?

When we can answer these questions for ourselves, we will be much closer to living the life we desire.
