The management of self-imperfection? lol. I tend to laugh at myself a lot. That's how I manage it. When I see something I can improve on, I practice on whatever it is. To me no one's perfect, mostly myself. That's ok. =)
If people have beef with me, I prefer they tell me to my face, so we can sort it out. What I learned in life is to stick with people who enjoy others and accept them as they are. That kind of attitude, love, conditioning, encourages people to be their best 'selves' when they acknowledge appropriate boundaries.
One thing I never understood was when people say: "You need to change this and that." It's like: "Who are YOU to tell me what to do??" I believe in constructive criticism. I also believe in respect. And when I mean Respect, I mean, respecting the individual person by loving them for who they are. In turn, they develop growth potential. That's why Carl Rogers is probably one of my favorite psychologists.
