2022 My do over year
I've always liked speaking but often find myself pretty shy, nervous or soo disorganised in thought that what I want to say rarely comes out in the way that I mean. That being said, I should be more comfortable posting my views online right? Nope, I'm even more nervous about posting things on social media. I find that social media has taken a very extreme stance on opinions. It's like opinions can only be either right or wrong but nothing in between because that shouldn't exist. I'm pretty sure it is likely due to the fact that those are the kind of content that the algorithms favour. Extreme right or left content are usually VERY clickbait and attracts a lot of viewers, the kind that would either a)leave a 100% agreeable comment or b)something super nasty which gives most content creators what they need is engagement in order to make money on social media such as Instagram, Youtube and etc. It is and has been very difficult to find very popular and entertaining middle ground content on social media. This and viewing the wrath of keyboard warriors have probably contributed to my fears of posting my thoughts and views on any topic.
I think a lot more than I do or say which is most probably my biggest problem in life. Sometimes I wonder how far in life and how many more people I could have met had I just overcome my fears and perspectives that I've been brought upon. I think that posting this might be my step forward in life, I'm expressing a piece of myself I never thought I would. I find thoughts very personal although this may not seem like it to many, it is something that I would have written or verbally said to someone if ever asked me specifically what my thoughts were. To each their own perspective, expressing thoughts random or calculated can be challenging.
I've been thinking about and editing this post for quite some time. I do hope that not many find this haha cause I don't think I know yet how to handle criticism on talking about views of my own to someone without stumbling over my words. I am going to work on myself more this year to become that person that can properly articulate her thoughts in a way that moves people and I am going to make full use of this to do over my life to an extent. This place feels like a right step forward in life
