Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 136: If I Could Change One Thing
Hello Everyone.
From Pakistan🇵🇰.
“What is that one thing you wish you could change in your past?.”
A person learns from his mistakes and this is nothing new. Every person does his best work in life only by learning from his mistakes and his experiences. And if I talk about myself and the mistake I made before, which I don't want to repeat, it would be blindly trusting people. I trust people very quickly, whereas it is said that trusting everyone is a danger to you and I realized this when I blindly trusted people and in return I was left empty-handed.It's not that I'm too innocent for this world, it's just that I make people mine very quickly.
“Why do you wish you could change it? What went wrong?.”
I remember that the situation at my home was very bad and I needed money a lot and my house was not able to run on Steemit.I was very worried and was looking for a source of income, which is not wrong, every person does the same. I was going to do something else along with this work, but in the meantime, I met a girl who called herself my friend. We were talking and in the meantime, I told her that I needed a another work. She told me that it was okay, I will get you a job where I work and see how your situation will improve. I believed her words. My family also told me that it is not good to trust anyone all of a sudden, that you can also become a source of danger. But I did not believe her. The work she put me in, she told me that you will have to invest money. First, she said three dollars, then after a few days, she said five dollars, then she said 10 dollars, and after that, she suddenly blocked me. So, this was a very bad experience for me. And in the meantime, I know that I saw how difficult it was with money, while I invested the money from my house that I had saved for my rent and my bills where it wasn't even needed.
“What lesson did you learn from that experience?.”
As I told you, this experience was quite bad, I will not call it worst, I will call it dangerous because what was in it was a lot of loss for me, where there was a loss of money, there was also a loss of something that my mental well-being deteriorated a lot. In the meantime, I was surprised and scared that people still scam people today. I thought there was a time when no one could be so dishonest with anyone. If the person in front of me is calling you their friend, then he must consider you a friend. Words were very important to me, but now I think that words can be used as much as they want, so now I feel very scared. Now, while trusting people, I think that people who come with absolutely good intentions come with me. I always doubt it.So somewhere along the way, I learned that it's better to investigate someone a thousand times before trusting them.
“How has that moment shaped the person you are today?.”
Where I highlighted how blindly trusting people had ruined my mental well-being and I was scared, one thing I realized in myself was that I had reduced my trust in people. It wasn't that I didn't trust good people who needed trust, but I had become a very calculating person. I realized where I had to invest my friendships and my love and said, "I have to stop all this."And all these things are very important to shape myself, which I have now taken into my life.Every mistake teaches you something and my mistake gave me the confidence to trust people according to my standards. Not every person who smiles at you and talks to you is your friend. Not every person who laughs with you or hugs you is your friend.

That experience was indeed dangerous, funny how people called themselves “friends “ and still hurt them without thinking. She that was supposed to help end up making things worse. Now you know better, good thing you survived those moments.
Thank you for sharing with us. ❤️
