Self-acceptance

 Acceptance is an important part of self-improvement. Knowing this will allow anyone to make the first step towards self-improvement. Acceptance is something that will take time for people to come to terms with and that's okay. This is not a one-day thing or an overnight thing, it will take time. Going into the steps of self-improvement many people always think that this is easy. People do not understand that this journey will take several weeks sometimes even days or months. 

I do not need to know every detail about celebrities to know that they worked their butts off to get to the positions that they are in now. We don't see what they do behind closed doors, that's for them to know and that's their personal life. However, I know for a fact that whatever they do, they didn't just wake up one day and suddenly they are a celebrity or they didn't just go to one audition and get accepted into a role and become popular overnight. They went to many auditions or practised a lot to get to the positions they are in now. Let's take a national team for any sport, no one was picked off the street and was told that they were going to be playing for the national team. Many of them in fact were in fact from rural parts of their country, they had those they love and care about push them in what they love for them to even get to the trials of the sport they love and play. Even before getting to those trials in order to get on the national team, they attended hundreds of practices and small-time games to improve. As they started to improve and got to the best positions for the clubs they were playing for they were pushed to try out for the national team whenever the national team needed new players. Eventually, they got on the national teams for their country. Even then they weren't the best. There were players with much more experience and skill on the national team so they pushed themselves till they were able to play side by side with the experienced members of the team and eventually their names were known to the world. They had to go through many things in order to get the national team and improve their game. Self-improvement is the same it takes time for them to be able to get to the position where they can be the best version of themselves. It will take time. 

There are many steps on this self-improvement journey that you are here for, and in my opinion, the first one is being able to accept yourself in other words self-acceptance. Through the next blog posts, I will be talking about the journey of self-acceptance
