"It's as if we're standing alone atop Mount Olympus, accompanied only by the ultimate truth... and our personal demons." - Kristina Mänd-Lakhiani
We have heard 'happiness comes from within us' enough times, but we struggle to find happiness in our true selves. We know that the constant distractions offered by modern technology only serve to distance us further from facing our true selves. But despite knowing all this, we don't know where to start, to 'make ourselves perfect' and then 'face ourselves', and then hopefully 'love ourselves'. The good news is that it is not that complicated, and you don't need to make yourself perfect; but that transformation does require you to choose to take the "red pill".
"Becoming Flawesome" by Kristina Mänd-Lakhiani is that red pill - an invitation to discover and celebrate the 'real you'. Kristina, the co-founder of Mind Valley, teacher, speaker, and philanthropist, shares her personal journey and profound wisdom in this book. In this book, Kristina encourages us to stop striving for an unattainable ideal of perfection and start embracing our unique quirks and flaws. The book is well-researched and grounded in science, referencing various psychological and neuroscientific concepts, presenting them in simple language. The author actually draws on many philosophies, self-transformation books and courses, mental well-being approaches, but does not proselytize.
I found this book to be a refreshing departure from the conventional self-help genre. It doesn't promise a perfect life, instead, it celebrates the beauty of imperfection and authenticity. In a world that has gone mad with social media, self-improvement, personal growth, success within 30 days, life coaching, fitness, and numerous other things that only make one feel less and less, "Becoming Flawesome" is a much-needed reminder that our imperfections are not shortcomings, rather they are what make us uniquely beautiful. And the path to transformation may actually begin with self-acceptance and self-love. This book is a good read for anyone seeking to break free from societal expectations and embrace their true self. It's not about becoming perfect, it's about #BecomingFlawesome.
