Acceptance of who you are in this very moment must occur before any moving forward is going to happen. Why? Because you need a stable foundation to start your work. If you won't accept who you are then your foundation is a mirage. Work must begin with a stable foundation.

And I get the feeling that you are being way too tough on yourself anyway.

There must be a lot of pain in facing who you are?
