I struggle with accepting myself. How does one even do it?

[Anonymous]

Most of the time I have a problem with myself, either for my personality, interests or just being me. Some people have told me I need to accept myself, but no idea of how that is even done.

This is a complicated thing because there are many layers to it.

First, you must spend time getting to know yourself. Come to terms with the things you can do and the things you can't do. Forgive yourself of your shortcomings and take pride in what you're capable of. Ask questions and come to your own answers.

Someone who can't acknowledge themself will lose every time. So the most important part of all of this is never to lie to yourself.
