Feelings of inadequacy Quote by David W Earle

““When life beats us down, we often do not feel worthwhile to ourselves nor to anyone else. Often, we try to hide our feelings of inadequacy in pursuit of perfection, which develops into self-loathing. If only we can be perfect, then we can be okay.””

“Beware of people – who underestimate others because of their feelings of inadequacy – when confronted with them, avoid taking it personally.” “লোকদের থেকে সাবধান থাকুন- যারা তাদের অপর্যাপ্ততার অনুভূতির কারণে অন্যদের অবমূল্যায়ন করে- যখন তাদের সাথে মুখোমুখি হন – ব্যক্তিগতভাবে নেওয়া এড়িয়ে চলুন।”
