“I thought I had to be perfect for people to love me. Then I realized that not only is perfection an illusion, but people actually prefer to be around those who admit they’re imperfect, who have faults, who are good at some things and bad at others. The reason why people are so put at ease by humility and imperfection is because it’s authentic. And authenticity translates, immediately and completely, to trustworthiness. We trust people who act like human beings. We crave it. So why try to be anything else? Be real, whatever the emotional cost. Pain goes away, while regret over a life lived trying to be a plastic version of yourself does not. Today, don’t hide within the perfections of others but seek to be your truest self.” XO
