Stop chasing perfection

We all have been chasing perfection always. We strive for the best version of ourselves, and in the pursuit of perfection, we often miss that we have to embrace our flaws, our mistakes, and faults before chasing perfection. If we do not embrace our flaws, we will never be fully able to explore ourselves. This is the thought of the day.

In life, we always try to go for the best. There are times when we settle for less than what we deserve, but it is momentarily. Be it financially, emotionally, physically, mentally, in all aspects of life, in all walks of life, at all levels, we just chase perfection. There are different ways for that.

My personal thought to attain perfection is that we have to accept, we have to embrace, we have to sort of accept ourselves as we truly are. When we are fully aware of our mistakes, when we are totally aware of our, like you know, our shortcomings, character flaws, only then we know that yes, these are the areas that we need to work on. Without working on ourselves, we can never attain perfection in any walk of life. There, I said it.

So, I myself tried to cover my mistakes, tried to cover my shortcomings when I was trying to be a doctor, but then I realized that I have to work on myself. If I do not work on myself, I will never attain the highest level of perfection in my career, in my personal life. When I knew that I am weak in these areas, like I cannot express myself emotionally or I cannot comfort a person when they are going through some rough time. These are just some examples.

There are a lot of shortcomings in me that I need to work on, but what I am trying to say here is that without addressing these shortcomings, I cannot chase perfection. If I chase perfection along with these mistakes, I will never be able to fully attain that perfection. This is the thought of the day, and I am sure you must have learned something from it.

And I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts in the comment section below. And I am really waiting for some engagement, some activity in this community. I have read some amazing blogs here. People are so thoughtful and inspiring. I am sure that it must not have been easy. See, this blog is a reflection of that as well. We do not just attain perfection by writing blogs here. We learn with time, we learn by making mistakes, we learn by self-awareness that yes, these are the areas I am lacking, and when I work on that, then only my account will grow.

So, thank you so much again, and I appreciate your help and support, and do remember me in your prayers. I will see you in the next blog, and the pictures I have taken with my iPhone XR.
