Erica Wiebe gets philosophical.
View this post on Instagram

“There is such a fine line between the never ending search for self improvement and the never ending search for self acceptance. I suppose I can accept who I am today while being excited about who I might become tomorrow”. Wise words from former Dinos wrestler, friend, lawyer, mama @locolaurameghan. . Whatever endeavour you are pursuing, the duplicity in living a life of excellence lies in the balance between the hunger to be better every day and the need for confidence and self love. It can be a challenging, lonely, tense journey at times. Seek out those river guides to help you on the turbulent waters but also believe in your own ability to endure, persist, and thrive. . I think about it in terms of going to bed every night being grateful for each opportunity and satisfied in my effort (whatever that was) on that day and then waking up in the morning hungry for more and intentional and self aware about what is within reach. . In a lot of ways, the uncertainty of the future has proven it challenging to wake up with the same intensity and motivation. I remind myself to be kind to myself, reflective, grateful, and live with intentionality on who I am, what I will become, and where I’m going.
