You're Not Broken
Several years ago I thought that something was wrong with me. That I needed "fixing."
So I began reading Personal Development books looking to improve myself. I read everything from "Think And Grow Rich" to "Psycho-Cybernetics." And, while these books were packed with good information, I never figured out how to feel "successful."
However, ultimately, what I learned is that there was nothing wrong with me. I didn't need "fixing." It was my low self-esteem that convinced me that something was lacking. And, as my self-esteem increased, my desire to try and "improve myself" disappeared.
Now don't get me wrong, I love reading Personal Development books because there's so much to learn from them. However, they won't fundamentally change who you are. Have the courage to be yourself and the grace to accept yourself. (Including all of your little imperfections.)
Here's one of my favourite quotations by Marianne Williamson:

Here's one of my favourite quotations by Marianne Williamson:
| Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. —Marianne Williamson |
