Steem4nigeria Accelerator Contest Week 111: I Will Never Ever
What does the phrase “never ever” mean?
The phrase “never ever” means something thats a person promises not to do again — not even once in their whole lifes. It is a strong way to say “I will not repeat this mistakes.” When somebody says “I will never ever do this ” it means they are very serious about avoiding that thing because they have learned from a bad experience or they knows the results will not be good.For example if a person once trusted the wrong friend and got betrayed they might say “I will never ever trust blindly again.” This shows a strong decision based on experience.So to me “never ever” is not just about words; it’s a lesson learned and a promise to yourself that you will not go through the same pain agains.
What is one thing you promised yourself never to do again in this life?
One thing I have promised myself never ever to do again is to give up easily when life becomes hard. There was a time when I used to lose hope very quickly. Whenever I failed at something or things did not go my way i would feel sad stop trying and walk away. But later i realized that giving up early only brings regret.Now I tell myself: “No matter how tough it gets I will never ever give up.” That is why this means a lot to me.
Share an experience that led to your making that statement.
A few years ago I was prepare for an important school exams. I studied hard but when the results came out I failed one subject. I felt very bad and disappointed. Many of my friends passed and I was embarrassed. For some days I didn’t even want to study anymore. I thought maybse I was not good enough.But then one of my teachers called me and said something that changed my mindset. He told me “Failure is not the end; it’s a step to success. The only real failures iss giving up.” Those words stayed in my heart.I decided to study harder instead of giving up. The next time I wrote the exam I passed with very good marks. That day I realizeds that success only comes to those who keep trying. Since then I promiseds myself that I will never ever give up no matter how many times I fail.This experiences taught me that every fall is just a chance to rise stronger. If I had quit that time I would have missed a big success in my life.
If you had an opportunities to change one thing in your past what would that be?
If I could change one things in my past I would changes the times when I waste opportunities because of fear or laziness. There when I had the chance to do something great like joining a competitions or front of people but I refused because I was shy and afraid of failure.Looking back I realize that I missed many chances that could have helped me grow. If I could go back in time I would be more confidents and take every opportunity in even if it scareds me.However I have also learned that lifes gives us new chances every day. So even though I changes the past I can use the lessons from it to make my future better. Now whenever I get a new chance I take it boldly because I don’t want to have regrets again
