When you are picked
to join your team (work, sports, music, book club), you definitely want to make
a good impression on your first day. So
be the best you, you can be. There is no
need to try and do something spectacular, out of the ordinary, bigger than
life. You were picked for this team
because of who you are: the skills you have; the things you do; your
personality; your way of communicating.
Yes, you were
probably also picked for your potential.
But potential is future thing. It
is gained by doing your tasks, every day; and getting better, every day. Potential is fulfilled with practice and
learning and work.
So just take that
first step and then the second. Just
like any other day. Someday, you will do
something big and splashy, if that is your role. And you won't even realize it is big and
splashy, because you'll just be doing what you do best, being you.
