“Just be yourself.

Let people see the real, imperfect, flawed, quirky, weird, beautiful, magical person that you are”


—MANDY HALE 


Absolutely! Embracing our imperfections, quirks, and unique qualities can lead to a more fulfilling and authentic life. Here's why:


  

1. Individuality: Embracing our quirks and flaws allows us to fully express our unique personalities. It's what sets us apart from others and makes us who we are. Celebrating our individuality can bring joy and authenticity to our lives.

  

2. Self-Acceptance: Embracing our imperfections helps us cultivate self-acceptance. By acknowledging and embracing our flaws, we learn to love ourselves as we are, which boosts self-esteem and overall well-being.

  

3. Creativity: Embracing our weirdness and embracing our imagination can lead to greater creativity. Our unique perspectives and unconventional ideas can inspire new solutions, art, and innovation.

  

4. Connection: Being imperfect and showing vulnerability can help us connect with others on a deeper level. When we let go of trying to be perfect, we allow others to feel more comfortable with their own imperfections. This can foster genuine connections and meaningful relationships.

  

5. Growth: Embracing our imperfections creates space for personal growth. It encourages us to learn from our mistakes, step out of our comfort zones, and embrace new challenges. Through our flaws, we gain resilience, strength, and wisdom.

  

6. Magic: Our imperfections and quirks often hold a special kind of magic. They make us interesting and unpredictable. Embracing our magical qualities brings a sense of wonder and excitement to our lives and the lives of those around us. 

  

So, yes, being imperfect, weird, flawed, quirky, and magical is not only good, but it adds depth, excitement, and beauty to our lives. Embrace your uniqueness and let your true self shine brightly!



Then being carefree about what others think can liberate us from unnecessary stress and allow us to live more authentic and fulfilling lives. Here's why it's important:

 

1. Authenticity: When we let go of the need for approval from others, we can fully embrace who we are at our core. We can live in alignment with our values, passions, and desires, without constantly seeking validation from external sources. By not worrying about the opinions of others, you can fully embrace your authentic self. Being true to who you are will attract people who appreciate and accept you for who you truly are, leading to more genuine connections and relationships.

  

2. Self-confidence: Being carefree about what others think boosts our self-confidence. We become less dependent on external opinions and more secure in our own judgmentsAbsolutely! It's important to live your life authentically and be true to yourself, regardless of what others may think or say. Here are a few reasons why being carefree about others' opinions can be beneficial. When you stop seeking validation from others and focus on your own thoughts and feelings, your self-confidence strengthens. You become more secure in who you are and what you believe in, which allows you to navigate life with a greater sense of freedom and self-assurance.


3. Personal Growth: When you're not constantly concerned about others' judgments, you have the space to explore and grow as an individual. You can take risks, make mistakes, and learn from them without fear of criticism or judgment.


4. Happiness: Living according to your own values and desires, rather than trying to conform to others' expectations, gives you a sense of fulfillment and happiness. When you prioritize your own well-being and follow your own path, you're more likely to find joy and contentment in life.


5. Freedom of Expression: When you let go of the need for approval, you allow yourself to express your thoughts, ideas, and creativity freely. This can lead to new opportunities, innovation, and the ability to make a positive impact in the world.


Remember that everyone has different opinions and perspectives, and it's impossible to please everyone. Embrace your uniqueness, follow your passion, and trust in yourself. Be carefree about what others think and focus on living a life that brings you happiness and fulfillment.

Book review #1

Finished reading 'Convenience store woman '. The book started off with an interesting concept of how society expects everyone to be in a certain way, expects us to behave in a particular manner; get educated, get a good job, get married and have kids. In this manner, we haven't progressed much from the medieval times. The protagonist who doesn't have the emotional capabilities due to her challenges finds a job in the convenience store and finds it very easy coz everything comes with a manual there, from how you have to smile to what you have to say to customers. But, later she tries to fit into the societal expectations coz of constant questioning by taking in a man. She fails miserably in that and finally goes back to the convenience store. The story has a fantastic beginning and has some great lines too but it feels as if the author didn't know how to complete it. Convenience Store Woman is a quietly brilliant novel about finding one’s place in a world obsessed wi...

Why are we triggered when someone criticises us?

-
Basically, Anger or defending an advice or a lecture or a critique depends on the situation.  If it is unwanted help, then it's absolutely normal . You may feel as if someone is interfering in your work or that they don't have faith in you to do it on your own. Anger is a secondary emotion. This advice is often unwanted and can leave you feeling irritated, shamed, or judged.  When someone offers their opinion on what you could be doing differently, it can sometimes feel like criticism .

Hence, it is normal when we are triggered when an elderly person criticises us but it...
