Stop Expecting Things To Be Perfect

Yes, ‘judge me when you are perfect.’ Are you perfect? If you are not perfect, then why are you expecting others to be perfect?

Why are you expecting things to be perfect? If that is what you want, you are going to be disappointed.

Why is that? Because nothing is perfect. Life is not perfect. People are not perfect. You are not perfect. No one is perfect.

According to Terry L. Paulson, ‘Expecting that everything will go well is not healthy; in fact, unrealistic expectations are a sure road to unhappiness.’

So if you want to grow, don’t worry about being perfect. Instead of striving to be perfect, why not strive for self-improvement?

How To Use Your Experiences To Change Your Life

‘Keep looking for ways to turn your experiences into maturity instead of using them as reasons to give up.’- Dr. Terry L. Paulson, PhD

Whatever you are going through in your life, if you want to grow in your life, you must face it. You must go through it. You must not give up.

If you do not have the courage to face your problems, you won’t grow.

We grow when we face challenges, when we face our problems.

Do not let your problems scare you. You can face them. You can solve them. If you do not know what to do about them, do not be afraid to reach out to people who have been there.

What you are going through is not going to kill you. If you use it well, if you do not focus on what is happening, you will see the gifts in what you are going through.

If you want to grow, you must face your challenges. No matter what life throws at you, don’t run away from it; face it.
