Accept That You are Imperfect and Others are Just as Flawed as You are
Sometimes we can get terribly upset and hurt when others let us down especially so if they are our loved ones. Our world shatters when their behavior runs counter to the way we expect them to be. We harbor ill feelings. We bear a grudge. We cannot accept their behavior. Why must they hurt us like that? Before you wallow further in your sorrows, why not ask yourself, “Hey, am I perfect in the first place?”
We all know that we are imperfect. That’s the common denominator of human beings. We too have our fair share of flaws. Some of us are grumpy. Some may worry too much. Some are sadists. Some are revengeful. Some are rebellious. Some are full of themselves. Some are rude and demanding. Some are jealous. Some like to gossip. Some are distant and cold. Some are wasteful. Some are selfish. Some are stingy. Some are ungrateful. Some are insensitive and the list goes on. If we have flaws, then why do we expect others to be perfect? Why do we feel agitated when others are not behaving in a certain manner?
Although we are not perfect, there’s no denying that we are all great in our own ways. Focus on the greatness of others. See the good in them. Don’t let isolated unpleasant happenings affect the relationships. Learn to accept that sometimes people will not behave in the way we expect them to be. Just as sometimes we may hurt others unintentionally. See the irritants as part of the big picture.
When we accept that no one is perfect, we will be less demanding on ourselves and others and can enjoy better and rewarding relationships.
“I have flaws and you have flaws so there’s no reason to bawl. I accept your flaws and you accept my flaws and our relationship can surely soar.”

Here’s 9 reasons why you must never give up on the things that matter:
1) It’s your life. Live it well. Live it the way you desire. Anything less will be non-meaningful.
2) Road blocks are divinely planted to stretch you and lift you to a higher level to be in alignment with what you are seeking.
3) Set backs are only temporary. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be discouraged. Learn from it. Move on, grow and transform.
4) Do not be swayed by naysayers. Stand firm. Be strong. You are stronger than you can imagine.
5) If others can do it, why can’t you?
6) You are destined for greatness. Why short-change yourself and settle for something less?
7) If you can hang on to things that don’t really matter even when they are causing discomfort, why can’t you just don’t give up on the things that really matter?
8) Do you know how it feels like when you have braved through all odds and emerge a winner? Go ahead. Do it. You will surely love it.
9) Having said the above, if you still feel like giving up, just try one more time. Just one more shot and you are on your way to success.
