(Edited)

It another week contest by @hivelearners.

Tell us about your personal growth as a person. Comparing yourself today with how you were five to ten years ago. How far have you come? What are the steps you took to ensure your growth?

In secondary school, i learnt that Growth is one of the characteristics of a living thing, that means every living thing must grow.
Growth is something that must happen. There must be a change in your height, weight, age.
We even plant crops and make sure they grow to yield fruits.

** Comparison between last 5 years**

Comparing yourself with your past is not a bad idea, it makes you want to be a better you.
The only person you should compare yourself with, is your yesterday
I can proudly say i am better than i was last 5 years.
I have built myself to be an independent woman, things i usually ask my parents before, i can proudly do them myself.
Last 5 years, I haven't gotten into the higher institution, but am there now.

I also have to improve my my character. I had anger issues, but i had to deal with if, not that i don't get angry but not as before.

Steps i took for this growth

Commitment: while growing up i always have this mindset never to give up easily, and it has helped me grow.
Things may not come fast as planned but you just have to hold.
Sometimes those things come and the time i wasted doesn't even count.

Respect: In growing you need to be respectful.
I tried to be obedience and respectful in order to grow.
You can't grow when you are stubborn and disobedience because you won't want to aid to any good advice that can help you.
Accepting i am wrong and changing any bad attitude complained about it.

Reading books also helped me grow and seeking advice from elder ones.

Thank you for reading

Great one there....
Patience is also a strong virtue that brings down anger. Sometimes when you are patient with people you tend to understand that everyone has their own way of speaking and playing with people. Not everyone can fit into you personality that is why you need to take things slow to understand situations and trust me it will work.

Its great to see that you've grown . there's nothing more exciting than being able to do something for yourself. It actually feels really good and you'll find how easier your life would become.

Commitment is the key to growing and it's good that you have that trait.

Anger is a good trait when you can steer it's energy into a productive and constructive goal, when you lose control it becomes destructive and does not accomplish anything.

Well, you have surely grown a lot. Anger is one emotion that if left unchecked can cause a whole lot of disasters than it is worth. So the best way will always be to exercise control and keep yourself in check.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
