Lessons learnt from the past FEATURED EDITION CONTESTS

Hello everyone 🖐️, it's really been a while, I had be trying to reduce my rate of blogging due to some few challenges, but it's beautiful to be here again.

I never imagined i'w be a writer, I actually didn't even plan to be this me, my mindset was just so obvious "I'm a science student, I don't do articles and novels", I could read textbooks very well, but at the mention of the word ARTICLE, my mind would be broken haha 😂, to me it sounded like I had to be a very creative writer, but now I've realized it's not that hard, as a result of the past FEATURED EDITION CONTESTS, I've learnt that most of this awesome write up we read are life experiences, it's either their own personal experience or a friend's experience, and the most important thing is that it's also applicable to daily living.

Never to forget this, at first I thought it was just about writing my experience, but along the line I realized that I could learn allot from other's write up, for the first time I thought of focusing more on leaning compared to telling my experience because having the right information helps to build up a good experience that the next generation would surely hear of.

Ive learnt to be creative and at the same time think versatile in my writing skills due to the nature of topics we've received in the past FEATURED EDITION CONTESTS, the themes were never focused on one nitch or a particular topic, and of a fact being versatile go a long way in learning.

Being CREATIVE is one of my biggest achievements since I've joined the blogchain, as a result ive learnt not to be in a hurry while doing things, I'd rather think of what to add or reduce to make it unique, and also I remember few months ago, someone commented on my post and he made corrections about my punctuations, I actually didn't even see myself making those mistakes but his corrections opened my eyes to see that I wasn't placing the punctuations at the right place.

Speaking of mistakes, well I won't say I'm perfect but I only made few mistakes since I started blogging, the reason is because the people that brought me to hive drew my ears to a point where the warnings sank in me, as a result of this I've learnt that while making a publication, the two most important things are SOURCING AND CHOSING A COMMUNITY, everything else could be edited but these ones maybe can't be edited.

I also remember making this mistake, I commented on a publication that I thought I knew of, I actually viewed the publication but I wasn't detailed on it, so I commented wrongly, well I was corrected by @somebody hahaha won't mention, and I learnt to take my time.

Speaking of My misconceptions, well I won't say I had much misconceptions, I only didn't understand everything so well, thanks to @starstrings01, and he crew for the enlightenment at the course of the newbies initiative.

It is normal to make mistakes especially when one is just starting out but along the line, we learn our lessons through concerned friends guiding and correcting us on the right way to go about it. I am sure you enjoy writing now? Lol
