#Personal

Personal growth is the act of getting lost in the wilderness of self-discovery while burying oneself under a mountain of self-help books. Along the way, one must loudly broadcast one’s “transformed self” or suffer sleepless nights from imposter syndrome. The outcome often resembles a fragile glass ornament of self-satisfaction, easily shattered. Inevitably, one ends up wrestling with the yawning chasm between self-assessment and reality. Thus, the journey itself becomes both the product and the torment.
