About This Quote

Accepting oneself does not preclude an attempt to become better. This quote is a beautiful piece of advice that teaches us to accept who we are even if it doesn’t line up with the ideal that we want to be. Rather than trying to change ourselves, we can accept ourselves and learn what our strengths are. If we do that, we can begin to pursue the things that will help us become the person we want to be. We can keep improving until our aim is met.
