Dear Friends of 2012:
You may know that God’s created you with great potential, but you can’t stop there. You have to develop your potential.
You’re frustrated and unhappy when you aren’t doing anything to develop their potential. If you want to see your potential developed to its fullest, don’t wait until everything is perfect. Do something now. Start laying your hand to whatever is in front of you. Walk through doors. Open windows. Be brave.
You must give your potential some form by doing something with it. You will never find what you are capable of doing if you never try anything.
Don’t be so afraid of failing that you never take a chance. Don’t stay in the safety zone. You may feel safe, but you will never succeed at developing your full potential or being fulfilled in what you are doing. Step out into what you feel God is leading you to do, and you will soon discover what you can and cannot do.
You are full of God-given potential, and He wants to do more through your life than you could ever imagine, but it requires your cooperation. Step out and do what you were meant to do…
Love,
The Bianca of The Future
Preach!
Thanks for the edits 🙂
Bianca,
Did your wedding ring ever turn up?
Amen. Since taking your encouragements I finally transferred, and will start school August 22nd @ HIU. This was my big prayer request the i mentioned I desperately needed an answer for. God has given me the “GO” and I’m on my way toward my God given potential. God is big & so is the work He calls his children to. Thanks so much, B!
WHAT?!??!?! Are you serious? Gahhhhhhhhh! I’m BEYOND excited for you. Who would’ve thought that this blog would connect us and now celebrate a new life change? Wow, just wow. I can’t wait for the rest of your journey!
I’ve been feeling this for a while. Just sit down and do it. Or just get up and do it. Or in the words of Nike, just do it. Whatever it is.
Thanks for the kick in the pants today. I’m going. I promise 🙂
You’ve totally kicked me in the behind this morning. I’ve been feeling this for a while. Just sit down and do it. Or just get up and do it. Or in the words of Nike, just do it. Whatever it is.
Thanks for the kick in the pants today. I’m going. I promise 🙂
Wow! This really spoke to me!
I seem to be struggling with actually DOING! I know what I have to do but when it comes to the wire, I don’t do! I either think I can’t or I seem to be stuck in the “safety zone”.
This was very encouraging, thank you! 🙂
From someone who loves the safety zone, I totally get it. 🙂
Dear Bianca of the Future:
I`ve lived a life of fear. In fact I lived a hermit type life because of that fear.
I`m learning not to live in fear. Thanks for a “kick in the butt” to help that process a long…

Hahahahhaha! Classic. Thanks, Carol!
You always blog about just what I need to hear in the moment! Thanks for sharing what God puts on your heart!
Thanks, Leah! You’re too sweet.
Hmmm, so I decided to attend my summer school course. Good ole math. We are not friends. WE can’t stand each other. I’m terrified but I know that after that, 3 more classes and I can finally transfer out of Rio Hondo! Praying that baby and I won’t feel the stress these next 6 weeks. I wasn’t going to but when i got off work yesterday I went home to think for like 3 hours and last minute took off to class. Thanks again for blogging your heart out!
Hi Bianca!
I LOVED meeting you tonight at A21 ( I am the girl that spoke to you about Jasmine giving me courage, strength and inspiration). But I must tell you that I just read this blog post of yours and I love what you say about God. I prayed everyday for a year and a half and asked God if this (wedding photography) is in his plan for my life and to please show me. He opened up so many doors when I just surrendered it to him. God is so good! It was so hard to let go of a comfortable “cushy” corporate job (pharmaceuticals) but through people like your sister, I know he was speaking through others to show me it was okay. I love your website and blog and everything you are doing BIanca. Keep inspiring people! YOU are making a difference:) Shannon:)
