Is there anything you're not particularly excellent at? Do you feel insecure as a result of it? Some people's self-esteem is impacted when they are unable to perform a necessary task.

Instead of concentrating on your limitations, concentrate on what you can achieve, and use it as motivation to keep going and get better every day.

Bill Maeda shares his life experiences of growing up not being good at school, which affects his self-esteem, how he makes mistakes over and over before he learns, and the problems he has in taking drugs. Listen in to find out why you should pursue physical fitness, the importance of continuing to learn and educate yourself, how to improve your self-esteem, why you should give importance to recovering your body, and more.

Quotes: “The training, that was always my medicine. It saved me. It was the first thing that I felt I was somewhat good at.” – Bill Maeda

“Education is not a box to be checked. It's not a short list. It’s continuous.” – Matt Beaudreau

“I'm kind of a coward, and I am right now, even at my age. But my thing now is to embrace the things that I'm afraid of, that I'm not good at. I believe the only true way to build your inner self; your self-concept is to overcome things that you want to run away from.” – Bill Maeda

Takeaways: Education doesn’t stop; it is continuous. Every time we make mistakes, we learn. And that’s how we grow. Practice learning something every day to maximize your growth and development.

To improve your self-esteem, you must face the things you are afraid of head-on. Don’t run away; embrace and overcome it.

You don't get bigger and stronger from training; you get bigger and stronger from recovering from your training. Thus, learn to value recovering because training is not just strengthening but also how you let your body heal. ``

Conclusion: To overcome your limitations and weaknesses, learn to embrace those things you are not excellent at. You can’t run away from it, so face it and acknowledge that it is a part of you. After that, concentrate on your strengths. Making mistakes is normal; take them as a chance to learn and improve.
