UNLEASH YOUR POTENTIAL. NOW.

Coaching, mentoring, training & consulting for entrepreneurs, successors and business leaders.

Welcome to potential.jetzt! Our sole purpose is to support you as an entrepreneur, successor or business leader in mastering your personal and professional challenges, achieving your goals and realizing your individual dreams. 

How do we do that?
The approach is simple. The focus is on two things: YOUR POTENTIAL and the NOW.

[po·ten·tial] 

/pəˈten(t)SHəl/ noun

“the latent ability within you to grow, evolve, and achieve what you’re truly capable of, waiting to be realized and transformed into action."

According to Aristotle - as in many other spiritual, philosophical and psychological traditions - the goal of human life is to fully develop one's own potential. When we achieve this, we arrive at the Summum Bonum, the highest good of life: Eudaimonia - true bliss and fulfillment.



The first piece of good news is: your potential is enormous! You have it all. Everything you need is there. You are enough and you are absolutely capable of overcoming all your challenges, achieving your goals and realizing your dreams.

Recognizing and trusting your own potential is your first important step. This will lay the foundation for your success and personal fulfillment.

“We are limitless potential waiting to be unleashed.”
— MICHAEL B. BECKWITH

But sometimes our own mental carousel gets in the way…

  • Can I decide to take action and commit to consistently working on myself and going beyond my current limits? 

    Or will I stay in my comfort zone?

  • Am I prepared to think visionary and set myself big, ambitious goals?

    Or do I leave it to others and avoid taking any risks?

  • Do I know what I REALLY want? Are my wishes and dreams really MY wishes and dreams? 

    Or do I lack clarity?

  • Do I believe in my success and in the realization of my dreams? 

    Or do I lack conviction that I can achieve all this?

  • "Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right." (Henry Ford)

    What do YOU think?

Then comes the crucial step. In order to activate and develop your potential, you have to decide to take action and consistently implement it.

This is where the now comes into play…

[now]

/naʊ/ noun

“the present moment; the only moment where life truly happens — a powerful point of action, awareness, and possibility that shapes your reality."

Life is a succession of moments. It only takes place now, never yesterday and never tomorrow. There is only this moment. It is the playing field of life. Only in the now can we act and develop our potential.

The second piece of good news is: you can change your life if you act now! This decision is yours alone. You are not dependent on anyone. You are the creator of your life. No matter where you are in life today, the decision to act now will bring you a decisive step closer to realizing your goals and desires. The subsequent consistent and persistent implementation of the defined, necessary measures will get you there.

“Recognize deeply that your whole life takes place in the present moment. Put the now at the center of your life.”
— Eckhard Tolle

But sometimes we lack the decisive impetus to act…

  • Can I decide to take action and commit to consistently working on myself and going beyond my current limits? 

    Or will I stay in my comfort zone?

  • Am I prepared to break new ground and accept the uncertainties and risks involved? Am I prepared to pay the price?

    Or will I opt for the status quo (even if it doesn't meet my expectations)?

  • Do I have enough willpower to give up habits that give me pleasure but stand in the way of developing my potential? 

    Or do I opt for the brief pleasure (incl. the bad feeling and regret afterwards)?

  • Do I know what I need to do and what behaviors I need to establish in order to unfold my potential? 

    Or is a lack of know-how standing in my way?

  • “We will all experience one pain or the other – the pain of discipline or the pain of regret – but the difference is that the pain of discipline weighs only ounces while the pain of regret weighs pounds.” (Jim Rohn)

    Which pain do YOU choose?

I UNDERSTAND AND SUPPORT YOU.

It is very likely that I have been in exactly the same position in my career or life that you are in now. Therefore, I understand your...

  • Fears, self-doubt and the feeling of being overwhelmed.

  • Tiredness and lack of motivation due to constant problems and challenges.

  • Constant pressure, inability to switch off and night-time worries. 

  • Constant inner restlessness as a perfectionist and workaholic.

  • Moments when you ask yourself the question of meaning.

  • Demanding everyday life, the lack of balance and the feeling of inner conflict between work and family.

TESTIMONIALS

  • Faced with the challenge of taking over the family business, I reached out to Fabian during a difficult time. I needed someone who truly understood and could guide me through this transition. Remembering his values, charisma, and sense of humor from our past business relationship, I knew he was the right person. Since then, he has consistently given me the confidence to tackle any situation.

    From the start, I felt supported and understood. Fabian empowered me to use my talents in both work and life, bringing peace and clarity, especially in difficult situations. He helps me see challenges from a new perspective, focused on the present while building towards what I truly want. His experience and support have been a constant source of strength. Over the past few months, Fabian has been more than just a consultant—he’s been my advisor, mentor, and partner.

    Roger Monné
    Board Member at Molpack S.L., Barcelona

  • We were supported by Fabian Erlhöfer for many months during the development of our company. The regular sessions with him were instrumental in helping us to find a market-oriented approach and to shape our business idea for success. He was able to familiarize himself with highly complex topics in a very short time and help us to develop a strong position in the market with his experience and deep understanding of customer-oriented action.

    It is particularly important to emphasize how competently Fabian Erlhöfer not only points us in the right direction - as is the case in many other coaching sessions - but also enables the company to proactively find its own solutions and implement them in the right places with the appropriate means.

    We are extremely grateful for the time we were able to spend with him and can wholeheartedly recommend his coaching.

    Johannes Jamroszczyk
    CTO of Charit Insights, Hamburg

  • Fabian coached me extremely well in my private matter of “selling my house, combined with the purchase of a new, barrier-free property” and, with his know-how, creativity and empathetic manner, worked out new ways of discussing the matter with my wife, which have now led to success, which I myself had not been able to achieve for years.

    Thank you very much for your support, dear Fabian!

    P. S. I'm looking forward to moving into my new, barrier-free property in mid-October.

    Franz S.
    National Account Manager, Pinneberg

  • I've been working with Fabian Erlhöfer since almost two years now and I'm very pleased with his consulting. His guidance has helped me not only tackle challenges but also grow and stabilise my business.
    Fabian’s experience is vast, and he listens carefully, offering clear and direct advice. I would confidently recommend him to anyone in need of similar support. Beyond being a business consultant, I feel like I've gained a trusted partner I can count on.

    Founder & CEO of Hercules Watches, Lausanne

  • Coaching with Fabian was an incredibly enriching experience for me. Right from the start, he impressed me with his empathic and structured approach. Each session was clearly structured and goal-oriented, which enabled me to tackle my challenges systematically. I would particularly like to emphasize the tangible solutions to problems that we worked out together. These were not only theoretical, but could also be implemented immediately in practice, which helped me a lot in my everyday life and work.

    I can unreservedly recommend Fabian's coaching - it helped me to develop clear perspectives and achieve tangible progress in both my private and professional life.
