I'll be honest, I can't say that awareness of my weaknesses has in any way made it easier to love myself. If anything, the constant gnawing awareness of the many qualities I lack makes it harder.


You’re at least further along than people who aren’t aware of their weaknesses.

Interestingly enough, once I started forgiving myself for my flaws, a significant portion of them went away.


Is this a Kierkegaardian "the only way out is through" sort of situation then?


Something like that. I wrote up my process in another comment on this thread if you’re interested.
