I posted even when I had nothing to write - How has this helped me?

Since November, 2013 until November, 2019, I have posted here almost every day.

The policy, the priority was posting every day. I didn't pay much attention to the quality of each post. Most of the posts were of low quality. They were even lower than those of diaries of elementary school kid. Well, I even hesitated and shied away from writing "I'm tired from work and train.".

This stance hasn't helped me grow this blog. Then should I consider quality of posts more? I would answer no. Although posting every day didn't help this blog grow, but at least I had acquired the habit to write something even when I had no idea before I quit blogging last year.

When I was blogging every day, my proficiency was too low to care about what to write and quality of my writings.

I'm learning that the quality of blog posts is about how they help people who want and search information. Having missed this perspective then, it was too early to think about quality of posts. I had my hands full with "what I'm barely able to write", and I think those were all I was able to write then.

I hope this time will be different. It's time to consider who I can talk to and who I am able to help, and who I can help learn and grow.

Slow Burst

My mental state is near burst. I sometimes make strange noises myself when I feel as if my brain were going to burst.

Even now, while I'm thinking that standard social skills in business scenes is worth learning, I scream to myself getting mad when I learn them.  Isn't just shaving my beards enough to be a salesperson? Am I going to be disadvantaged forever because the skin of my face and my head is too dry? This is one reason why I thought that I wanted to escape my country when I was 11 and 25. This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
