This is from one of my favorite books, ‘Magical Thinking’. I tend to focus a lot on mistakes I’ve made and can be very self-critical. I like this quote because it reminds me that while I’m flawed (as all humans are), I should spend more time evaluating my success by whether or not I’ve made decisions in line with my core values.
“I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.”
Augusten Burroughs ― Author
