Thank you so much for this! This motivates me more. Honestly, at first, I look at this platform as a source of an 'alternative income' while sharing my life experiences and expecting something in return.
However, one night while I'm sitting down in front of my computer, I realized, never mind if I am not getting more votes, anyways, I am just restarting sharing the passion I am in. So just like what you mentioned, now I am trying to get better and better in what I do whether someone will notice me or not. I told myself, whoever will view my content, at least they will say, oh, she is good at something like this.
When you mentioned the only person I should not let down is myself, I was nodding all throughout because I understand it wholeheartedly.
Now I am focusing on how to get better each time and enjoy sharing my passion.
So all I can say is, thank you so much for waking us up. It was like a knock on my head hahahahahahaha!
But honestly, thank you from the bottom of my heart especially for creating this platform where I share my talent and passion.
