Steemit engagement contest 4; Describe What You do for personal development #swcengagement4 by @mjoedavid

Good day my lovely friends in this unique community @steemwomensclub. It is my pleasure to participate in this contest themed : Describe What You do for personal development

INTRODUCTION

Self-development should be an important goal in the life of every individual. Personally, I am deliberate about my personal growth hence my strong determination to make the Me of today/tomorrow better and brighter than who I was yesterday.

Below is the list of my habitual activities to enhance my personal development.

• Research
• Writing
• Reading and Studying

1. Research

I love learning and expanding my knowledge in diverse topics. As an avid researcher, I'm open to new ideas because it is always nice to see things from a diverse perspective so as to acquire more knowledge, insight and experience.

Research has helped me to build my level of confidence when speaking because I have been well informed on the subject. And people tend to take you seriously when they are convinced that you are knowledgeable on the topic.

Research helps me to stay updated on any latest information.

I usually research about women's health, problems with fertility, childcare, crypto news, upcoming crypto projects, investment opportunities and technology.

2. Writing

This is a new skill I just discovered that I possess and I have begun to nurture it with the goal of advancing from a beginner level to an expert someday.

Writing helps me to pen down my imaginary thoughts. Most times I open my diary and start writing those crazy but funny thoughts that are congesting my mind. My diary is one of the places I run to for solace, in it I pour out my deepest feelings and then I feel better. Writing helps me relieve stress and stay optimistic about my personal development.

3. Reading and Studying

I enjoy reading and Studying the Bible because it helps me to stay spiritually connected to my creator. Each time I study the Bible I feel this warm presence of my God speaking to me through his word and this creates a sort of calmness within my spirit. Indeed the Bible is God's gift to us.

Also during my leisure, I take pleasure in reading interesting novels. Thrillers, action, sci-fi, crime and documentaries are my favorite genres. Below are a few lists of the books I have read so far and can read it over and over without getting tired.

• Sisters keeper
• Master of the game by Sidney Sheldon
• A time to kill by John Grisham
• Bloodline by Sidney Sheldon

Through reading I have been taught by the world's best authors and publishers, I have learnt from their experiences and wisdom.

I am still open and willing to learn. There is no end to it.

Please recommend any book you know that will be useful to me, I will be very grateful.

Recommendations

• I will recommend that we all should form a habit of writing daily. Yes it may not necessarily be with Pen and paper, we can make good use of our mobile device to jot down stuff. Writing can help you develop a mature mindset to think through and make well informed decisions

• Always make your findings by carrying out thorough research. Research will expand your knowledge. Sound knowledge on a subject matter helps you to speak with boldness and confidence. Do not be quick to jump to conclusions without carrying out proper research.

• Make it a habit of reading and learning something new weekly. And be willing to unlearn so that you can learn new things and grow In wisdom.

Conclusions

I am still a work in progress. I will never relent in working hard to be a better version of myself.
My future is bright
