Threefold Aspects of Self

Buddhism has a good model that can be applied to a Buddhist Bright person. It is the Threefold Aspects of Self.

The first aspect is Essence.

The second aspect is Potentiality.

The third aspect is Manifestation.

Summed up, you have a basic person that is the essence of you. You have potential to unfold your life any way that you want (bound by reason and physics). And third, is the manifestation of some of your potentiality.

In a simplistic sense, this also describes aspects of quantum physics in The Particle, The Sum of All of its Possible Histories, and the Quantum Decoherence of it.

But for now, what you must know, is that you are unique, you have potential, and it is up to you to unlock that potential.
