There’s a saying that growth reveals pleasant sides to you and shows you that you have become a better person. This is why people look back and say with a smile, “I have grown.”
While this is true, there’s also another growth side that is only sometimes talked about. That is the side of growth that reveals our inadequacies. Growth reveals one’s unpleasant sides, it could make you cringe.
Growth shows you the bad habits you need to work so you can be a better person.
Growth makes you reflect on what needs to be done better, when, how, and where to seek help.
The revealed good, bad and ugly sides to you are an incentive for you to grow. It is not growth if it only makes you feel better.
You are human, imperfect, a work in progress, and you’ll make mistakes. So, when you see unpleasant sides to you, remember this truth. Remember that growth is a revealer of bad things; more often than not, it’s for a good cause.
Above all, when growth reveals unpleasant sides to you, forgive yourself and look at the bright side; there’s room to be a better version of yourself.
