Could you tell me a time when you chose self-growth over perfection and celebrated the ordinary?

What makes us unique, authentic human beings includes our imperfections and our less-than-extraordinary lives. Often society equates ordinary with boring or meaningless, so growth and goal setting can feel a lot like more work than dreaming of perfection.

How true is that?

Improvement is a far more realistic goal. When we choose self-growth over perfection, we choose empathy, grounding, connection, and self-acceptance.
