The realization of one’s potential entails a great deal of sacrifice and hardship because it requires one to recognize his or her flaws and make a deliberate effort to change. Potential is dynamic: it can be lost, wasted, growing, but never capped. For many people, reaching one’s potential is the ultimate goal. I truly believe that this goal is meaningless unless it is concurrent with the continual expansion of potential.

get rid of this its too wordy and doesnt make a good introduction .Also work on your word choice it seem like you were trying to "use big words to sound smart" it seems a bit forced. I like the conclusion .overall really good
