The Squandered Opportunity: "If i could start my life from scratch"

[Now Playing - The Game - Start From Scratch]


Today, I could have been sitting in a corner office, looking out on a view of the city. which city? who knows, maybe London. Maybe Monaco. Let's not limit ourselves here.
The point is that's where I could have been, not where I am. Now juxtapose this image with the fact I currently take residency in a studio flat in (hmmm)... lets say zone 2. and the mind begins to construct an idea of the theory of Dunamis.(or potentiality for those who don't speak Ancient Greek)

Its a tragedy that a great many of us will only realise our full potential in retrospect rather than in experience. We only find ourselves the motivation to attain the dreams we sought out after the opportunity has long passed us and we dwell on our mistakes.
Aristotle's theory of Dunamis is that potentiality becomes possibility when a motion is placed behind it. the fulfilment of this bringing possibility into its realest form.

So when I think of all the opportunities that have passed me by.

The time I met a Millionaire

The Chances for Placements

The contact details thrust into my hands by people in positions of power and influence

and the conduct I took up until this point, I cant help but theorise the heights i could have already been at long before this point.

I'll be damned if I allow another day to pass me by where i don't place a motion behind my next potentiality.
