Steemit Engagement Challenge S3-W2: I love myself to the moon and back by @josantos

My fellow steemians, it is a great delight to publish on this amazing topic that says I love myself to the moon and back which is a contest organised by the steem for a better life community. Here is my entry with regards to this very topic. I do hope you will enjoy reading my article today.

The doubts I have that I will be talking about today have to do with my personal life and steemit too because steemit has become part of me greatly. As a youth, I never thought of attending a high institution because of a lack of money. When my parents tell me that I shouldn't worry I will one day go to school I will just smile because my elder brothers are still home and we are even struggling with how to feed.

Seeing this situation, I never dreamt of being a student, to me it is an impossible thing to think of. Based on the fact that schools here are quite very expensive and also we don't have enough to eat and drink, where will the money come from? This is the usual question I ask myself before this time.

Another doubt I have is the one related to the platform. I started this journey in 2021 and at that time all I wanted is to get money and solve problems both the necessary once and the unnecessary ones. As time goes by, I started thinking of making steemit my place of savings. My major doubt is about my saving, I ask myself regularly if can I meet up a target of 3k SP. I looked at it as something impossible both today I have achieved it.

In other to overcome your doubts, you need to set a goal and remain focused on it. You need to have someone who you will be looking up to. Look carefully at the world we live in or on the steemit platform as to those who doubt their achievement on the platform. Get someone who is always consistent and follows the person's steps. That is one of the major ways to overcome your doubt.

Ensure that you have a role model and a goal. Whenever you set a goal, you will not rest until that goal is achieved. Most times the road gets too rough and that is when you will need someone to push you up again. Now at this stage, the person you have been looking up to will encourage you and you can continue with the journey.

Another thing you can do to overcome this doubt is to build a very good relationship with people around you or on the steemit platform. Most times you may spend hours preparing an article but in the end, you may not get any form of reward for it. All you need are those around you to push you up with little support.

I love myself because I can be able to withstand any situation in life. I'm someone who never gives up easily, I fight till the last. Before going to the university, I have some doubts but immediately I saw that it is still possible, I ensure I followed up till the last. Another reason I love myself is that I'm a good follower. I can humble myself to the last just to achieve my aim.

I'm also very determined and I don't give up easily. As I said earlier, I must see the end before giving up. This has helped me to achieve a lot of things in life. I will always follow the moving train and ensure I reach my destination despite all the happenings around me.

There is not much to do when it comes to prioritising my happiness and well-being other than doing what I know and love best to do. I'm someone who loves associating myself with others and I find great joy anytime I find myself amidst people who share the same vision as me. So I always avoid people that are provoking and things that are not to my taste.

No one can completely make you happy in this life unless yourself. If you don't love yourself as a person, you don't expect anyone in this life to love you as well. For you to live longer, you need to first love yourself because you can't love others around without you loving yourself. I call on @olabillions, @ruthjoe and @predomina to join the contest.
