We often say we feel “not good enough.” But compared to whom—and based on whose definition of “good”? What or who is the benchmark to judge? What are we running towards? Maybe somewhere on this path of becoming our “ideal self”, living my dream lifestyle. In my case, too, I forgot to keep a check on my current version.
