The best version of yourself is in fact, yet to be born

To all those who think they need a wave of a magic wand to get better...

More than often, most of us are only being a quarter best of ourselves or still worse- the worst version of ourselves. Each one of us has got the scope to improve and each one of us has the capability to become better than we are. In fact, the improvements to be made are so obvious that we know exactly what and where they are to be made but we just tend to ignore the very idea of being better because of the fear of change or of not being good enough to adapt the change. 

In the first case, when we admit we are willing to improve it implies that we are not perfect currently but what we have to realize is that it's totally fine to be imperfect but what is NOT fine is to lie to yourself about being the best and to give up on improving. 

Deep down, each one of us knows we can give our best. At times we know we can do better but we don't. Because somewhere deep inside, as much as we know we can make it work we also have fear of not being able to make that possible. Is it really that big of a problem?

Let me paint you the picture...

A tiny window just big enough to let you in is in front of you. The window opens in a room that has infinite open doors waiting for you. But you are so convinced that you won't make it to the other side of the window that you refuse to even find out what is at the other end. And you shut the window close, forever. And the doors keep waiting for you, forever...

You know what your fear of not being good enough can be? 

It can be that window...that obstruction, which keeps you from the doors opportunities knock at. To answer your question...no, it won't feel like a huge problem. It will be the breeding ground for multiple huge problems. 

If changing for the better is hard, not bringing in the change and then regretting is the hardest. 

Because the latter will bring in your life a stagnant kind of stillness while the former will bring with it self satisfaction and moments of happiness you'll thank your younger self for. 

Therefore, from today and for all the days that follow let's pledge to strive to become the best versions of ourselves. We will eventually get closer and closer to loving who we are. 

And once that happens, other things will just fall in place like the pieces in a solved jigsaw puzzle!
