Are You Confident Enough to Acknowledge Your Imperfection?



I'm sure, very few of us would be confident enough to accept that we are imperfect despite knowing the fact that none is perfectly perfect. But, that's not how we can achieve success in life.

Psychologically, there may be an explanation for this odd behavior but, practically speaking, unless we accept our drawbacks the improvement comes to a grinding halt and we never achieve what we are capable of.

Although Carl Beuke, Ph.D. has written this article with specific reference to career improvement; however, his explanation is amazingly applicable to every field of life.

His concluding remark, "If you want to keep moving forward, you can't afford to be content with sitting still. If you want to keep improving, you can't afford to be satisfied with your current performance. Find something to improve, and do something about it." is simply breathtaking

Thanks Carl, for this brief but insightful post.
