?? Imagine being "well-rounded" as a myth akin to chasing after a perfectly spherical stone ?? In nature, stones come in various shapes and sizes, each with its unique imperfections and qualities. Similarly, individuals possess diverse talents, strengths, beliefs, interests, and experiences that make them distinctly human. The pursuit of being "well-rounded" implies striving for an unattainable ideal, like trying to sculpt a jagged stone into a perfectly smooth sphere. In reality, embracing our rough edges and asymmetries is what makes us authentic and multifaceted. Just as a jagged stone has its own beauty and character, so too do individuals with their quirks, strengths, and areas of expertise. Instead of conforming to an unrealistic standard of "well-roundedness," we should celebrate our uniqueness and cultivate our individual talents and passions ?? Shine in your areas of strength, collaborate with others who complement your skills, and contribute your authentic self to the world. ?? #MetaphorMonday #TheStrengthsPartners #CliftonStrengths #WellRounded #Strengthsfinder #Unique
I call it the super model myth - unattainable and unrealistic.
