What? It's okay to be weak? But why!? Shouldn't you always be tough!?
Yeah thats what I thought for most of my life now.
But I realize that it's okay to make mistakes, It's okay to have weaknesses.
You can pretend you don't, You can put on a mask. You can act like your a perfect person without any flaws.
Will it work?
Maybe!
People may not like you as much though; This is a common theme throughout Utah. The LDS church encourages its members to be "Perfect" I was raised in it. People are incredibly phony and terrified of showing any flaws that they have. Sometimes when they leave the church, As I have. They can be themselves, And It's bizzare seeing what person they were meant to be. ONce they are free from that influence.
No one is perfect, And while you can do your best to hide your weaknesses they are there! Haven't you noticed the honesty these days? People love those who are raw, Open about their every flaw. People no longer like companies that act like they have a product that can 100% Do everything for you.
We all could spend all day focusing on our strange looking face, Our inability to get things done. Whatever it is. We all have flaws somewhere. Television and Magazines can influence us in such a bad way, Making us feel like we aren't good enough, We aren't pretty enough. But no one needs that type of negativity in their life.
I like knowing where my boundaries and weaknesses are Because then I can work around them and use that to quickly accomplish my goals. If I Know that I will slack off around the afternoon, ANd It's just automatic, I Know I can switch tasks around that time. I also know how Impulsive I am, So I attempt to remove as many temptations as possible. Because if something good comes up, I may not be able to resist.
You can work around your weaknesses, so you don't have to suffer because of them.
Not only can you work around them, But if it's something that deeply bothers you about yourself, You can work on them, Eventually eliminating them from your life. This takes a lot of work, But if you pull it off, you won't have to worry about it bothering you anymore.
We don't have to spend our whole lives trying to hide what our weaknesses They are there, And that's okay! Work around them. And be open about them.
