A question for the intelligent people on Mylot

1. There will always be someone who knows more about something than you do. 2. You are one individual in a world of billions. Your sphere of influence and impact is very small. 3. To be human means to have fears, quirks, inconsistencies, and failures. 4. You are loved by someone. 5. If you try to do the right thing you will succeed most of the time. When you fail, own up to it and forgive yourself. You are not and will never be perfect. 6. If you follow #5, you are worthy of being treated with respect and loved. Don't settle for anything less. 7. You have a purpose. You will discover that purpose when the time is right. 8. Never depend on another human being to make you happy. You will be disappointed every time. You must make yourself happy, and then invite those around to share in it. 9. Work to change things for the better than can be changed. Recognize when change isn't possible and let it go. 10. Helping others is the greatest way to gain self-satisfaction and sense of self-worth. Find something you are passionate about and volunteer your time to take part in it. Animals, kids, adults, environment, whatever.

I think human being is very self-centred creature and he already accepts himself to the extent more than needed.Problem is how he accepts others.That thing he has to learn.

I wish I am intelligent academically. There are things though that I am better at. Everyone is unique. A person can be good in this thing but sucks on other things. I just want to comment on about you saying many people here on my lot? Why did you say that? Do you only based it on their answers if they really have a substantial amount of knowledge to the issue?

I have to accept myself, whatever I am, whatever others tell me. How do you learn to accept yourself?

I do not carry the conviction that intelligence can be measured on a scale. It has levels , the variety can never be adjudged viewing one's educational standards or import of social behavior and acumen .

That is a difficult question. I can accept myself if I have lived up to my expectations. Otherwise I may always feel myself quite distant. I think accepting also involves a clear conscience. accetance is hard if there has been dishonesty, treachery, greed, bad behavior towards others etc. I will be proud of myself if I have not harmed anyone and have tried to be of some use to others and the society at large.

How can you live without accepting yourself?That's why God has given us intelligence.To make us acceptable to ourselves and to others.You must make yourself worthy of being accepted by yourself before trying to get accepted by others.

Start by laughing at yourself and stop taking yourself seriously. When you laugh, the world laughs with you, when you cry you cry alone. Its better to have the world laughing with you than ‘at you’ and crying alone. Never take yourself too seriously…we are all prone to mistakes and misunderstandings. Don’t ‘try to learn’ from your mistakes, otherwise everytime you attempt something, you will end up trying not to make mistakes and miss the whole fun of it. Each situation is unique and demands different handling. Take life one day at a time and remember that nothing and nobody is indispensable, not even you. Accept your faults (not to others, but to yourself), talk to yourself (you are your best and only friend). We come alone and go alone…enjoy it as long as it lasts with all your warts and moles.

A very challenging question. How do I learn to accept myself? Having the gift of wisdom and knowledge I have learned that I have weaknesses and strengths that made me the person who I am now. It started in loving myself, respecting my decisions, the traits and charateristics that is reflected to other people.

I don't know if I am intelligent but I am attempting to answer your question - I accept myself because I don't have too many expectations from myself or the people around me - if you have realistic goals then you can be satisfied and learn to accept not only yourself but your family and living environment.

Accepting yourself should not be a very hard case. The fact that you have been living in this world for more than 10 years and enjoying the things with yourself and you have been happy with it, then unknowingly you have accepted yourself already. Otherwise you must be hating yourself now and wish that you did not exist or maybe you were born with another personality or things like that. But then on the other hand, maybe you were talking about people who have regrets about themselves. And for that effect, it is up to you really. If you want accept yourself as it is then be contented of everything you got. With every quality yourself posses, including fame, capability, skills, personality and maybe charm? Hehe. Love yourself and you will learn to accept it.

Accepting yourself is when you realize that you are a unique individual and that you were created to be a part of a wonderful world.Realizing your uniqueness will give you the sense of self esteem that no other person can do what you can do nor can be great as you are. Be reminded that you are such a special person capable to make a difference in the world you live in now.

i always try to act naturally, the climbing part is done when i'm alone and thats when i feed myself with new data and variables on how to interact with the world around u. I understand my uniquie needs as an individual and i'm not me if i'm not able to satisfy those needs, this is how i try and accept myslef. Basically the important thing is to live ur life as who you are, in a way that is acceptable to the society. Again its the question of where you draw the line!

Even as I write this I am thinking about this question. Many things influence peopls's thoughts and actions. From a young age I became responsible and loved it when my tasks were accomplished and I had all the time to myself to read. You have to learn to love yourself. you see it does not matter what anyone else thinks. You ahve a prupose in this life and if you love yourself and others in the process you will hve all the help you need to progress. so I beleive you need to love yourself and accept the limitations of your gifts - what you can do and what you cannot do. Learn to think of someone else and not yourself alone.
