Wasted Potential refers to a situation where someone or something fails to live up to their full capabilities or possibilities. It implies a missed opportunity to achieve success or make progress. Here are two practical examples to demonstrate the use of this term:
1. John had incredible artistic skills, but he never pursued his passion for drawing and instead chose to work in a nine-to-five job that he despised. Many people considered it a case of wasted potential, as he could have become a renowned artist.
2. The talented football player, Sarah, had all the physical attributes and skills needed to play at a professional level. However, due to her lack of discipline and dedication, she never made it beyond the amateur league. Her coaches believed she had wasted her potential to become a star player.
