What happens when you finally "find yourself" but discover your a bit sh*t?

a big part of the road to enlightenment and truth is to be yourself and accept who you are and not who you project or fake or wish to be. But what happens if you finally accept who you are and realise that self is pretty awful! We can lie and hide our true self from others, and we can even try to change ourselves but if deep down our personalities are just a bit sh*t (due to genetics or upbringing) what hope really is there, except continuing to fake it hoping no-one notices - least of all ourselves?
