Dropping knowledge...

But there is something to what Gina is saying...
There is a big difference between being persuasive and imposing ideas on others.

Being Persuasive is an art. Imposing your ideas on others is aggresive. Being aggressive, in imposing ideas on others, shows that there is still doubt.

Seems you are being a bit like a psychotic Christian at times, when trying to convince others that their belief is the only path. Seeems to me that the term "Infinite Potential" is another word for "God". Its only because the word "God" has been over used and abused that it has lost its meaning. Now its as though it has become a dirty word. It needs to be taken out of language useage for 50 years or so. Then it will become again something fresh when it is used.

The more you push your ideas on others, the more it seems to me that you are trying to convince yourself that its true. It is still not yet your truth. You may have a good intellectual understanding of it - this is called knowledge... accumulated knowledge... it is borrowed. You have found it in a book(s) somewhere.

But intellectual understanding is different than understanding which arises out of existential experience - this is called knowing, knowing is not borrowed - it is one's very own. The art of persuasion comes out of knowing. There is no effort needed to try to aggressively convince others, on the contrary, others feel what one is saying is true. Because it comes out of one's own experience, and not out of some book that was read.

Don't get me wrong. Read as many books as you like. After it is accumulated within the intellect, don't stop there, take it into your life and then experience it there. Then you can drop the knowledge of it, because it then becomes part of your being, it then becomes your very own - out of your very own experience.
