What NOT To Change About Yourself – Ajit Patel UK Goldshield
Throughout life, everyone learns, grows and evolve. There’s nothing quite like overcoming a challenge or achieving a goal. Sometimes, however, your self-improvement efforts go too far and the search for positive change turns into a relentless search for impossible perfection. Instead of focusing on being the best you can be, you end up obsessing on everything that you are not.
The reality is, there is absolutely nothing wrong with you, or who you are. In your efforts to change things about yourself for the better, it’s important to realise that some aspects of your personality and your life aren’t meant to change. One of the keys to emotional good health is self-acceptance. Start practicing self-acceptance and you’re on the path to a happier, more fulfilling life. Here are several things you should never change about yourself…
Personal Taste. Whether it’s music, food or sports, changing what you like in order to follow the herd isn’t good for your emotional well-being.
Emotions. Feelings are what make us human. Bottling up your emotions is unhealthy. So go ahead, express your joy, your fear, your anger, your love and your pain.
Take risks. Taking calculated risks, dealing with the consequences and enjoying the rewards are all part of the human experience. Let’s face it – life without risk is dull.
Past tense. By letting go and choosing to accept the past, you give yourself the space to create a better future for yourself. Likewise, don’t grieve the loss of unfulfilled dreams. Leave them behind and look forward to what the future has in store.
The future is what you make of it. Yes, you will make mistakes, but you will also learn from those mistakes. Rather than worrying about potential disasters and failures, ready yourself for opportunities, so you can strike as they appear.
Your body. Magazines urge you to have the perfect physique. But, in reality, they’re only trying to sell you products. Even the most beautiful model is imperfect. And guess what? Like the rest of us, they too will age. Love who you are and where you are in life. Aspire to be yourself, because you’re unique.
You can’t do everything, but you can do your best. Everyone is good at something. But you can’t be great at it all. So don’t even try. Find the things that you’re good at and which you enjoy and invest your time in them.
It’s much better to accept who you are than wish to be someone else. Simply feeling good about yourself will make you more attractive to others. So be proud of yourself, recognise and accept what you’re good at, focus on what you do well and everything else will fall into place.
