There are so many things I think how hive and blogging helping me with personal growth. It gives me cofident in terms of writing and sharing my thoughts to the people. I'm not sure that people will find my posts or contents are nice. Even so, I still decided to post it because I know that my post might not be perfect but there's a lesson to learn from it.
Like you, I was afraid to comment in someone's else post because what if they will misunderstood my thoughts. However, as time passes by in this chain I realised something. My words are my own, it's my own opinion. If people found it not good, maybe they just didn't get what I was trying to say.
I don't want people to think that I'm an arrogant but I noticed on my writing that it's improving. The grammar, choosing nice words and etc., it changes. I'm thankful to hive because it's given me an opportunity to grow in writing which I really love. People maybe didn't like some of posts because it's all about article. Unlike when I posted about happenings in the street that earned well. But I'm fine with that as long as I expressed my thoughts through writing.
That is the most important lesson. No one has to be perfect. No one should think they are perfect, for if they do, that's where personal growth stops. We should all constantly try to improve, no matter where we stand.
There is nothing wrong with acknowledging your own improvements. That's a nice reflection on your own growth and quite important I think.
Oh, how nice to hear your reply. Thanks
