Un saludo cordial comunidad de Hive. 👋🙂
Obviously, I do not consider myself a perfect person. I have several mistakes and flaws, as we all do. But one thing that stands out about my personality is that I am someone who does not have a hard time recognizing mistakes and correcting them.
Obviamente, no me considero una persona perfecta. Tengo varios errores y defectos, como todos. Pero algo que destaco de mi personalidad, es que soy alguien que no le cuesta mucho reconocer los errores y corregir.
I realized this by remembering behaviors I had 1 or 2 years ago, even a few months ago. Now I think about them and I can't help but feel ashamed and a little disgusted. If I could go back in time, I would punch myself in the stomach. I don't plan to give details, but I did immature and stupid things for my age. Luckily I left much of those behaviors in the past and got better.
In general, I am not someone who finds it hard to see and contemplate mistakes. If I am aware that I did something wrong, I acknowledge, apologize and correct. I believe this is the quality that makes me able to change quickly and easily. When I notice an inappropriate behavior, I try to change it as quickly as possible. That is why, in some aspects and areas, I feel so different. Compared to a few years ago, it is almost as if I am someone totally different. My current version has changed a lot, compared to 2022 and 2023.
I recently learned that, in general, people do not change much and they do not have the will to do so. For example, sometimes I cross paths with former schoolmates and I am struck by how little they have evolved. Same mood we had 8 or 9 years ago, same childish behavior and same adolescent behavior. One should not abandon one's essence and principles, but we cannot behave like 15-year-old teenagers when we are over 25. Although I don't want to look like someone super-mature, I must have many childish behaviors and I don't realize it.
Something I noticed in many people is that they are capable of justifying and defending shitty behaviors out of pride and ego. Sometimes it surprises me to see how there are people who are capable of arguing any stupidity for not saying "you're right, I was wrong". It bothers me a lot when people defend the indefensible and justify the unjustifiable. The world is not going to explode for admitting your mistake and apologizing. That helps you improve as a person and evolve. I don't know why so much resistance.
It's good to have an ego. It's what gives us self-esteem and self-confidence, but you have to keep it in check. Too much ego makes you a stubborn and arrogant jerk. You believe that everything you do is right and you are not wrong. Too little ego makes you insecure, distrustful and without self-esteem. I think the right thing to do is to keep it level with humility. A middle ground where you know you are someone who is going to make mistakes in life, but who recognizes your value and capabilities.
