“Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are”
— Soren Kierkegaard
Simplified Meaning:
To make real changes in your life, you first have to acknowledge what you are and where you currently stand. For example, if someone wants to get healthier, they need to accept their current fitness level and habits first. By recognizing their starting point, they can plan the right steps to improve. Ignoring the truth about yourself means it's harder to make effective progress. Embracing who you are helps you understand what needs to be different and what actions you should take. This way, you can better shape your future to become the person you want to be.
