“Imperfections are not inadequacies; they are reminders that we’re all in this together.” ― Brené Brown
To embrace your imperfections, let go of identifying yourself as inadequate and embody the wholeness of your being.
Consider the accompanying narrative how our imperfections can be channelled correctly:
A water bearer had two large pots, each hung on the ends of a pole which he carried across his neck. One pot had a crack in it while the other was perfect and consistently delivered a whole portion of water.
One day, at the end of the long walk from the stream to his house, the cracked pot arrived half full. This continued daily for two years, with the bearer bringing home one and a half pots of water.
The perfect pot was proud of its accomplishments. But the cracked pot was embarrassed by its imperfection since it fulfilled only a fraction of what it was designed for.
After two years of what it regarded as disappointment, it spoke to the water bearer one day by the river. “I’m ashamed of myself because this crack in my side causes water to leak all the way back to your house.”
The bearer replied, “Did you notice that there were flowers only on your side of the path, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I’ve always known about your flaw. I sowed flower seeds on your side of the path and every day on our walk back to the house, you watered them.
“For two years I’ve picked these beautiful flowers to decorate the table. Without you being the way you are, I wouldn’t have this beauty to decorate the
Perfection Is An Unattainable Ambition
“Our love is perfect. And even though we may not be, our love creates a bridge that spans over our imperfections and joins us where it matters.” ― Steve Maraboli, Unapologetically You

There are several leading actors and successful entrepreneurs with notable imperfections which they used to their advantage.
Consider Arnold Schwarzenegger’s heavy accent which did not discourage him from becoming Hollywood’s most prominent star. Similarly, Richard Branson’s dyslexia was not an impediment when he was established his thriving billion-dollar Virgin empire
You Are Born To Be Real Not Perfect
“It belongs to the imperfection of everything human that man can only attain his desire by passing through its opposite.” — Soren Kierkegaard
Consider viewing a masterpiece painting close up. Your attention is drawn to the bold brushstrokes that appear distracting to the eye. Yet, when you step back and view the painting from afar, you realise the beauty and complexity of the brushstrokes that outline the entire picture.
See yourself as a masterpiece beyond your shortcomings, replete with bold brushstrokes that completes the whole person.
Transformational psychotherapist Linda Graham states in Bouncing Back: Rewiring Your Brain for Maximum Resilience and Well-Being: “Include an appreciation of your own wholeness and your goodness, all your strengths, all your weaknesses, including the ones your inner critic is currently harping on.”
“Include your friend’s love and acceptance of you, exactly as you are, with all of your human imperfections, and their understanding of all the events that created your way of being and your particular flavor of the universally human inner critic.”
Your imperfections summon you to exercise self-compassion with your inner critic.
Don’t abandon yourself when the inner critic judges your imperfections. See it as an opportunity to love and accept the disapproving part of you, instead of waging war. With concentrated attention, you can reframe your inner dialogue to be more affirming.
Honour your feelings and use it to examine what inflames your emotions. In this way, you transform your inner dialogue to reaffirm your wholeness instead of focusing on your separateness.
You are born to be real not perfect.
There is no personal growth in a Utopian world and the last time I checked, we are a great way off Heaven, Nirvana or Paradise. We must quietly evolve into the highest version of ourselves.
Perfection is not the answer if you aspire to attain inner peace. It will lead you further astray because you strive to change aspects of yourself you’re unhappy with.
Gratitude, however, opens the doorway to acceptance and a heart-centred focus.
In closing, your imperfections are based on an illusory perception that highlights one facet of your being.
Welcome your flaws and realise the wholeness of who you.
