Is 3 Years of Character development a waste?

3 min read

It is one thing to write from the heart, it is another thing to write from a deadline. In the beginning i was writing from the heart, every post was unique, until i continued writing because i wanted to be consistent.

It is good to be consistent, but not when the quality suffers.

To write such think pieces i have to be in a certain frame of mind and i can say i have not been there in a while.

When you sit down and observe the world, a lot of things make sense and a lot of things fall into place. You start to realize that things or events or people you hold in such high esteem it just a fallacy.

You reach this high level of reasoning where you understand that nothing will make you fulfilled in this life except from pure purpose, that one goal that governs your life, reasoning and actions.

I figured this out three years ago, and every action i have taken has led me here today, i took persistent action in trying to be the best version of myself, trying to develop the best character possible.

During the process i have lost and gained friends, experienced life defining moments, experimented different character traits and personalities, that was when i discovered that i have two personality traits myself. The quiet and observant and the lively and friendly.

Do you develop new charcacter traits when you work on yourself or do you just extend and mature your existing traits?

I would say both, but leaning towards the latter.

During my pondering i realized that i am still the same Joba, same quiet and lively personality traits but i have extended them.

I think differently and act differently but i am still the same Joba, just different.

You never really understand something until you experience it.

That is why they say people don’t change. And you can learn a lot about a person from the mistakes they have made in the past.

I noticed that things i have done before, if i am put to the test again i might not do it, but i will consider it.

Character development is very essential.

One character trait that would help you in life is self-confidence.

Because if you want to accomplish your dreams you have to believe in yourself because no one else will, and they don’t need to. After all it is your dream.

You have to be willing to make your own route and go on your own lonely journey. Doesn’t mean you cannout have friends that have the same vision as you.

Understand that it is just you and your purpose.

I am up by 2am because i have a purpose to share the knowledge i gain.

What is your purpose and how much are you willing to sacrifice for it?
