I struggle with the idea of being the best version of myself. I'm
confident that everyone struggles with this notion, but my struggle lies in
knowing and understanding what that is. What version of myself is the best? Is
it short lived? Does being the best version of myself mean reaching
self-acceptance, or does it mean endlessly chasing the concept of perfection? I
think that always wanting to be the best version of oneself can almost be
equated to the desire of always wanting more. I believe that may be how some
people perceive it. Of course, I cannot and will not speak for everyone, but I
have heard many people speak about their journey of self-improvement as though
its infinite. That's a lot of pressure to place on oneself, in my humble
opinion. I'm not suggesting that you shouldn't want to better yourself. I just
think that maybe part of being the best version of yourself is loving who you
are throughout the journey and maybe knowing when it’s okay to rest. I may have
just answered a couple of my own questions! I usually talk myself through writing.
It helps me express myself better. This World Mental Health Day take time to learn
how to nurture your mind, body, and soul. Remember not to put so much pressure on
yourself because life is hard enough as it is.
