Watch Out! Your Personality is Showing!

I got this email the other day that included the line...

If you have an opinion you MUST share it or you're gonna end up AVERAGE

I thought that I liked that idea, I don't want to be mediocre.

So I shared it in the Berserkers Discord group, thinking 'yes, good advice'.

But we talked about and it is certainly not relevant in every situation...

Here on Steemit, for example, if you share your opinions on race, gender, religion or politics you will find yourself up the creek without a paddle, and often without an upvote and even flags and downvotes by those who don't share your opinion.

It probably wouldn't be wise to share your opinion when you deal with a power hungry policeman, as you may end up in a prison cell, or when tired to death of waiting in a waiting room at a doctor's surgery and are ready to f-eddy-f at everything, but you don't as that would probably result in having to get a new doctor, so you keep it all in.

So when or how can we show our opinions?

We find groups of people who we can be ourselves with.

Even better we find groups of people we can be ourselves with and constantly look to improve ourselves, so we can strive to be the best versions of ourselves. That is a goal, we have every day until our dying day, as you will always have something to improve.

In a group setting...

Sometimes someone else provides the inspiration that fires the soul, or opens your eyes to new ways of seeing the world.
Sometimes it is the accountability and pressure from others that kicks (or keeps) our butts in gear.
Sometimes it takes talking to someone else looking in to realize what needs to be done.

But it is down to you to sustain that self improvement and keep up with it.

But a good place to start this journey, if you are not afraid of strong opinions and learning the truth about yourself, is the Berserkers Discord Channel

It has been the making of me (and its only the start of the journey)

Hail to the Berserkers

But sometimes it is fun to take a risk, so please enjoy this Jesus joke...
