Striving to be good often leads individuals to be defined by external expectations rather than their authentic self, creating a disconnect from true fulfillment.
The journey of striving for goodness can result in the denial of personal shortcomings, leading to perfectionism and a defensive stance when faced with criticism.
Excessive pleasing can morph into self-strategizing, where choices no longer reflect one’s personal values but instead seek to manipulate perceptions of others.
Embracing a wholistic path encourages acceptance of all aspects of oneself, fostering genuine development rather than conforming to the often rigid ideals of societal expectations.
