There are aspects of yourself you will never be able to change with no amount of therapy, courses, self-help books, silent retreats and mindfulness practices. You can spend your life trying to hide, fix or ignore your imperfections. Or, you can see them as something more…

Somebody who is tenacious isn’t always cautious. Somebody who is courageous isn’t always considerate. Somebody who is creative isn’t always collected. Somebody who is prolific isn’t always profound. Somebody who is loyal isn’t always rational. Somebody who is ambitious isn’t always available.

Your imperfections are the cost of your strengths. They’re the price you pay for being who you are.
