How many times does it have to be brought to your attention before you feel the need to rectify it?
From trivialities to severities, it is obvious something is not being done correctly, appropriately. Holding yourself accountable and understanding it is “you”, can prevent what it is from repeating. Whether you have a disturbing body odor or a nasty attitude; it is YOU. It would be of dignity to change it. There have been NO reports of proper self-love and/or self-care harming anyone.
Some people manage to stay the same, growing in areas to get them just a tad further in life. Ultimately leaving them tainted from whatever past they have yet grown/healed/learned from. Like someone learning finance and still lacking people skills. How far do you think you will go in life without learning to socialize/communicate with others? And effectively?
All pride needs to be placed aside in order to hear and take in constructive criticism, no matter how serious it may be. It will take someone who is open to change, someone who knows that they do not have all the answers; for them to “take in” what is being said.
Some are not ready for growth, nor do they want or see change. I notice people happen to feel change is needed from everyone but themselves. Those types of people are ignorant, and I could barely spot them. In some ways, you have to get to know someone in order to gain perspective. Nothing is “wrong with us” even in our lowest times, it is more so “what happened to us?”. Even the most F’d up individual can want so much out of life.
Check out this great interview I watched to help me gain a better perspective of, “What is wrong VS. What happened”
As time progresses we carry on through life and gain a better understanding of ourselves.
We get to know ourselves better, some more so than others. Everyone is on their own journey! Nonetheless, we learn things we should maybe add to our “self pot” or take away. I say go to the doctor and find out why your pores are releasing such a scent. Or reevaluating your attitude because thrice too many people have told you to do so. Maybe you’ve messed up too many relationships due to it.
Whatever it is, “CHANGE IS ALWAYS REQUIRED TO GROW.”

P.S,
I am the one who needed an attitude change.
