JustStart your Goals

The goal about which I am going to work and about which I am going to talk about here is personality development. I am going to work on it as my JustStart project. So there is a question that arises that why I really need this as a goal and why not I go for earning and goals like stable myself.

So the why behind it is that for a very long time, I was facing the issues of having personality weakness? I was a very introverted person who goes out of the house very few times, who doesn’t even know how to greet new people. At the start, I don’t consider it a weakness but when I joined college, this weakness grow up enormously. I was such a person who afraid to ask anything in class. Who doesn’t have the guts to stand and ask that he didn’t understand that point? And when I reach university I consider it as one of my big weaknesses. Like I do anything but can’t stand in front of the class to speak two words to them. After some time, I cover it up with some efforts but some of its roots still alive. I still don’t know how to speak with the opposite genders. I afraid to ask anything them and this thing decreases my confidence so much that once I received a call for a job as a graphic designer. The interviewer was a female. I literally am not able to give the right introduction to myself. Along with that, I consider that I don’t know how to interact with professional people. So I hope you can understand why I choose it.

So I devised an activity with my group mates. I firstly have one on one with them and then secondly I have a conversation with them in the group. I don’t understand but the way they understand me is completely astonishing. We have 2 hours long group meeting. And I share my ideas first with them. We have a fruitful conversation on each topic and I come up with strong and logical arguments. We have these sessions in such a friendly way that I didn’t realize that they were strange to me

So the challenge I face during this task is that I was not an expressive person. So firstly I reluctant to express my weakness and the reason behind my sessions but with some courage, I share and literally understand and help me to overcome it.

The thing I learn from here is that if we have a weakness then we have to gain enough guts to start the first step and have the courage to work on it. If we overcome our weaknesses, they will one day become our strength because we have a long effort on them and that effort will not go unrewarded.

My next step is that I will continue doing such an activity because I don’t want to create a comfort zone. I will come with new amazing ideas with a new team try to do such activities with them but in some different ways. Until then I will perusing my mentoring with my previous team.
