Is it better to strive for constant improvement or be happy with who you are now?

Always be happy with who you are. But always keep it pushing. I beat myself up mentally till I was 40. Always telling myself I was behind, that I was coming up short, that I wasn't good enough. Now I realize how far I've come. That I'll be a millionaire in about another decade. I don't regret how hard I drove myself per se. But it was unnecessary to beat on myself as much as I did.

One absolute truth life has taught me. Some people will dislike you no matter how successful you become. As you get older you realize what people have your back whether you have 1 dollar or a million dollars to your name. And those are the ONLY friendships that are worth anything.

Life is about continual growth and improvement. I'm always learning.
At the same time, it's important to like and accept yourself in the present because, if you don't, nobody else will. You have to have confidence.

I think you have to accept yourself for who you are now, and then you can improve on what you want to change about yourself.
