Contest: Your two Greatest Flaws and Your two Greatest Virtues by @adylinah

Warmest greetings to everyone here in Steemkids Community. It feels good to take part in this amazing contest conducted by @alejos7ven. From the contest title, I've examined myself and know what my greatest flaws and greatest virtues are. Following the contest tips, I will list out two each and explain in details what causes these characteristics and how I can improve myself to become a better person in future. Firstly, I will differentiate between these two words; "flaws and virtues".

Flaws	Virtues
Flaws is in a person's character which is the unwanted quality that they possess. In other words; flaws can be easily define as a quality of imperfection, fear, limitation and deficiency in a person.	Virtues is a positive quality of being morally good.

MY TWO GREATEST FLAWS

In life, everyone has their shortcomings and it is very easy to be identified by others and also by yourself. These characteristics do not just go by itself or last forever either. It takes constant efforts to deplete some of the effects on our behavior and thoughts. Below are my two greatest flaws;

1. Procrastination
2. Self protection

Procrastination

This is the act of putting off things until the last minute or even pass the deadline when it would have been done. I found myself doing this at some point or another.
I remember when I was doing my school project work, I was always having issues at the early stage with my supervisor because of procrastinating. Time will be given to submit my work for review, I will end up seeing myself submitting at the last minute or some hours later. It was really a big problem for me even when I'm being given two weeks to the submission date. But at time goes on, I tried to adapt to my supervisor's methods of timing and discipline. Like I mentioned above in the definition of flaws that; "it's unwanted quality in a person", after a while I noticed that I unintentionally still procrastinate sometimes.
Although, I'm trying hard to stop that habit because I am really missing out on so many things. Like on steemit, I will plan to participate in a contest but keep procrastinating until the contest expires which usually makes me sad and being forced to change and improve myself.

Self Protection

This simply means giving out attitude so to avoid losing self-esteem or in turn affect self-esteem of others. Some people called this "pride" but I don't really care about it. Sometimes, I see myself suffering through steady need to protect myself so I won't get hurt. This has made it more default to express my weakness to the people around me. I just believe in protecting people's thoughts about me even when I'm in need of something, I rarely ask for help. Since it's a natural feeling that comes undesirably, I also believe that I can still work on it to be a better person rather than hurting people while trying to protect myself.
We are all humans and it is best to admit that there are freedom in our weakness. By this, others will love us for who we truly are and most importantly, it will remind us that we are not alone in our fault.

MY TWO GREATEST VIRTUES

It is really difficult to point out my greatest virtues because I have a lot of great virtues. But since it is the greatest of them all, I would say that it's "Respect and Hard work".

Respect

Out of all the virtues I can boldly identify, respect is the greatest because in general; it connects to human happiness. From when I was growing up, I've already recognized that people are important and deserves to be treated well and give respect to. By doing this, I've also learned to understand people so to be able to fit in and know how to handle certain situations. Honestly, by being respectful, I've also gained my own respect too which is the happiest part of this virtue.

Hard work

I have this hardworking nature in me that sometimes, I will sit back and wonder how I do it all by myself. When I set a goal, I make sure to put more efforts in achieving it. This is one of the greatest virtue I admire so much about myself. Thank you!
