How often do we underestimate our ability?

How often do we underestimate our ability? We really so rarely think about this. And it costs us dearly.

An “aha” moment last night watching a portion of American Idol, when judge Keith Urban told a contestant to stop under estimating his voice. The judges see his potential, but the contestant doesn’t.

He’s a great singer, but doubts he is phenomenal.

And this applies to each of us as well.
