Find faults, in yourself.

Find faults, in yourself.

No one is perfect. Imperfections define the being. They give you an identity, a reason to grow. Imperfections are beautiful. The need is to identify your flaws, embrace them, understand them, rectify them and then improvise. Flaws are vividly colorful. We can paint a phenomenal picture in the canvas of life using these colors.

But the first step towards creating a masterpiece is to understand what you are actually working with. You need to understand yourself. You must introduce yourself to the original you. And this real identity of yours is flooded with flaws. Love yourself. This is the first step to be able to tread the paths of success. Ignoring, abusing or avoiding this confrontation with your flaws negates the very essence of life. Life is all about learning and growing and for that you need to be a friend of your flaws.

Once you’re done with the introduction session, just write down all the faults that you were able to encounter and remember that honesty is the best policy. Be true to yourself while writing your weaknesses. You are about to undergo a self-transformation process and you are doing it for your own betterment and welfare. If you try to camouflage your flaws, you will be the one who is losing out on improvement. So create a list of your weaknesses with all the generosity in the world. What you write is going to be the outcome of your daily experiences. You need to contemplate and reflect upon your past and your thoughts to come out with the true shades of life. You need to recall incidents as small as quarreling with someone over a petty issue to as serious as ramifications of a life changing decision. Just contemplate. You may take as much time as you want; after all we are dealing with your character’s makeover. The list may contain anything that is barring you from all the joys of development and eventually success. For better understanding, let me tell you what my list of flaws consisted of and I am not embarrassed or scared of sharing these things with you because I am happily done with the confrontation session and I love the beautiful person that I am.

Your list may contain anything from laziness to loudness. Analyze your list; it is a reflection of how vivid you are. Getting depressed or hating yourself just because of your imperfections is completely futile. 

Now, the real journey of improvement begins, give yourself a second chance. You are the master of your body and mind. You are the in charge. You know what has to be done. You know you deserve all the happiness of this beautiful world. So, the next step is to eliminate these flaws, unwind and free yourself from all these restrictions and boundations. This might be a long and difficult process but the result is worth it. Just keep on reiterating what you want to let go. Feel that you are de-cluttering your body. Think about how you have kept yourself so busy and stressed managing all these things at the same time. Now you are done with all this. Just let go of your anger, procrastination, laziness or it might be anything else in your case. Feel relaxed. Think how changed your life would have been provided that you would have curtailed from all these actions. Stop blaming others. Once you start taking responsibility of every area of your life, you will be able to grab more opportunities to highlight your flaws, rectify them and improve. Don’t hate yourself for committing mistakes rather observe and learn.

Edison has perfectly put it in words, saying “ I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work. “

Once you start getting rid of all the strings of flaws that were binding you, the outcome will be marvelous.
