Or maybe not. Yes, I aspire to be my best self, but the very notion that I should do so can be connected with thoughts of not being good enough. The key, I believe, is to aspire to be ones’s true self, not best self. It’s not about improving, it’s about being. That said, we all actually do have room for improvement. Usually that means getting rid of things, like our limiting beliefs and maladjusted coping behaviors. When we strip away all the protective armor, we can be truly authentic. Takes work, though. Lots of work.
