What I learnt in the previous year - 2021

Helloblurt! I'm excited to participate in this contest. This is really nice. A big recognition to the organizers of this great contest. The lessons I learnt in 2021 are numerous. I'm going to talk about the basic ones here.

1. Trust no one:

In the previous year, although I wouldn't say that I trusted someone, it wasn't trust in entirety, but I somehow placed my confidence in someone and I was betrayed. This is something that I hate so much. I hate it when I confide in someone and at the end of the day, I get betrayed. So I learned that no matter what happens, I shouldn't tell my deep secrets to someone else because they will definitely get tempted to spill it to the world.

2. I learnt to believe in myself:

There was a case where I didn't believe in myself. I was actually capable of doing some things but I was always in doubt. Finally, I got to realize that whatever I have to do will only be actualized if only I believe in myself that I can do it. Some tasks looked really difficult but I went through it because I believed I could. So this is another big lesson I learnt.

3. I also learned to mind my business:

A friend of mind got into a real big problem because she didn't just mind her business. It was a very deep mess. So from her mistake, I learnt that so many problems can be avoided if I just sit back and focus on my own business.

4. To Beware of unfriendly friends:

This was another huge one. In 2021, I cut my circle to a very small size. Before now, I used to have a lot if friends and many of them were not really friends. They didn't mean well for me. Somehow along the line, I got to know that some friends are actually unfriendly. The knowledge of this has saved me from a lot if danger.

5. Finance management:

Another important lesson of 2021 was how to manage my finances well. I learnt to spend only when it is necessary. This has helped in my savings journey. I learnt that I don't have to spend like them if I don't earn like them. Now, my money goes for the things that are necessary.

6. Investment:

I had also learnt in 2021 that part of my funds should be set aside for some investments both in real and financial assets.

Giving: In 2021, I can beat my chest and say that I'm proud of myself. I learned to give. It was always hard for me but now, it's a lot easier.

7. Finally, I learnt to always trust God and trust the process:

Whatever it is that I'm passing through, the only solution is God. So I have learnt that God is my only source of help. The only thing I should do is to trust him and trust the process.

Thank you for having me here. I appreciate!
