Hello Dear Friends, it's a pleasure meeting you again.

I will always tell everyone I meet that I am not perfect. I fear fears, challenges, good times, bad times, habits and character that might not be considered appropriate, but at the end of the day, I am created by God not to be perfect in myself, but to be unique, special and beautiful

What Do You Want From Life

This question is one that shouldn't be answered in a hurry, but with deep thought and deliberation. At some point in life, what we want from life might change. For an example, while I was much younger, I wanted to be a medical doctor, but after much deliberation and of course maturity, I came to a conclusion that being a nurse aligns with my purpose and vision

Generally, what I want from life is peace and contentment. I know humans are almost never satisfied. I will not spend the decades of my life trying to accumulate wealth and not living and enjoying the peace and contentment.

What Are Your Fears

Growing up, I wasn't given the best life has to give because of financial constraints on my parents. One of my fears is not being able to provide more than enough for my children's growth, financially, academically, spiritually, materially and otherwise

I also have the fear of not being able to fulfill my dreams and goals in life

What Are Your Strength?

It is said that "patience is virtue". This saying is a personalised one to me. One of my strength is patience and doggedness. I could wait for long while expecting to see my dreams come to realisation. This strength has carried me through length of time and helped me still be in hope and faith.

Contentment is another strength I can say I have. Since humans cannot be satisfied, I have learnt to abaze and abound, that is to do with little and do with much

What Are Your Defects


My defect is being too honest and blunt. Although, I don't really know if this is a defect, but I have verbally and emotionally attacked severally for doing it.

Most times, because of how honest and raw I am while saying the truth, I hurt the feeling and emotion of the receiver.

I am learning to say the truth without hurting people's feelings

What Can You Do To Become A Better Version Of Yourself

We all want to do better, act better and indeed become better. To do this, I will improve on my strength, work on my fears and weaknesses, then solve my defects.
I do this by carefully studying of other successful people who have succeeded in such areas. I also read books along my strength and fears and how to overcome them. Finally, I have to get patient with myself to grow and become a better version of myself.

I invite @ninapenda @goodybest @simonnigwe

Honesty is not a defect it is a plus When you are honest you may face many trials and beyond that when you stand upright you win victory comes your way

Thank you so much
I have always gotten into trouble for being honest

MOD's Observations/suggestions

Thank you for participating in the Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 13 in the Steem For Ladies Community.

Peace and contentment are good things to want from life. No one can ever have it all so we have to be peaceful with ourselves and people around us because even the rich are getting richer because we can never get it all.
Welcome back and good luck!
