Courage and the Good Life

Paradoxes exist nearly everywhere — even in the area of self-improvement. In the classic On Becoming a Person, psychologist Carl Rogers wrote, “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” When you encounter a paradox, remember that there is potential and opportunity within the tension. What does it mean to become who you are? What is the tension in genuinely knowing ourselves?
