Hello Steemians, I trust you are all doing great! Today I am dropping an article about three things I'd change about myself and three things I'd keep.
INTRODUCTION
In life change is constant, we change for a lot of reasons. Change is often aimed at self development which is a necessary tool for maximum input.
THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE ABOUT MYSELF
1. INABILITY TO KEEP SECRET:
This is one aspect of me that I will like to change, whenever I am told a secret, it becomes a burden on me.
This has cost me a lot in the professional setting, as I am usually left out of important official meetings for fear that I might divulge to other staff. In my personal life, where I should have sold business ideas and make profit, I have talked and talked and given up ideas on a platter of gold. This habit has also made friends found it difficult to confide in me. This is why I want this habit changed.
2. IMPATIENCE:
Keeping me waiting as well as keeping me in suspense is not one of my virtues.
Impatience has led me to make bad decisions, decisions that I have regretted. Impatience has also made me judgemental and I have missed so many opportunities due to impatience. This is the second thing I would like to change about myself.
3. SEEKING VALIDATION:
I always seek the approval of other people. I do too much consultations about my actions and inactions. This attitude makes me weak, and not in charge of my situation.
I makes me blame others for my mistakes and that's why I need to change.
THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP
1. CHEERFULNESS:
This is one quality I have that I wouldn't trade for anything, I am always happy and fun to be with. Whether I am having a blue day or not, I am always happy,
I do not allow negativity to change my mood. Due to this trait, a lot of people prefer working with me, and I have also gotten a lot of recommendations as well.
2. RESILIENCE:
After coming to the understanding that challenges will always come our ways whether we like it or not, I had to figure a way to
withstand my challenges, I started by accepting them, not allowing them to define me, and instead of getting weighed down by them, I always figured a way out and worked towards it. With time I became resilient, bouncing back from any misfortune as quickly as possible.
3. DETERMINATION:
This quality keeps me pushing on and ensuring I achieve my set goals. It is this quality that has kept me here on STEEMIT, I remember my first few days, I didn't know how
to navigate my way around, I got frustrated but I was determined and eager to learn, today I can see that I have learnt few things and still determined to learn more. Determination is really a good recipe for success, therefore, it is a habit that I would love to keep.
CONCLUSION
I won't forget that change can be a daunting task, therefore I am ready to apply the right strategy to change all the things that I don't like about myself.
I hereby invite @ngoenyi , @msquaretk and
@abola-tobi to join this challenge.

impatience is really something we humans need to battle with bro. I have been in the same situation which I only live to regret someday..
hope you figure out a way to resolve Asap.
Thanks a lot bro.
