Perfection - should remain a rule of life

10/26/2017

To improve oneself is a difficult undertaking, and many abandon the work when they see what slow progress they are making, whereas others, disappointed with themselves, are in despair. Well, the first are weak and lazy, and the others are proud. There is no point in losing hope when you see that you are far from living up to the magnificent image that you dreamed of for yourself. You must be humble and say, ‘Alright, you are not successful this time, and maybe you will not succeed next time, but that is no reason to stop trying.’ You must never lose the desire to progress. It is not the end of the world if you fall down, but each time you must make the effort to get up again. In all circumstances of life, what is most important is to hold onto the will and desire to continue improving oneself. There are always improvements to be made. And the idea of perfection is an inseparable part of human existence.
