INTRODUCTION

writer describes any imaginary or real life experience such as event, interactions, goals setting,

in their past. Reflective writing helps you to create a new set of knowledge as it will let you think
about your achievements and your path towards that achievement. It helps in drawing a
connection between experience and theory which will be helpful in better understanding.
MAIN BODY
Development of my skills during my learning and how I developed my skills.
The first and the foremost thing that every learner must know that in order to achieve goals in
life one must have a skill set that is required in that path towards the achievement. Without
developing the right set of skills the person who fixed the goal will only waste their time and
efforts and will only frustrate the individual (Rascaroli, L., 2017.). I have faced this issue myself
as whenever I try to achieve my goals for which I don’t have proper skill set I always suffered. I
loose my confidence every time I failed. But after some time I realized that I need to develop my
skills first and then will be able to achieve my goals. It is not bad to feel unconfident but it is
important to gather courage to at least give it a try.
My first goal that I wanted to achieve was to start my own blog after completion of my
graduation. I was not very confident about my English communication skills as I am not a very
good communicator. I was a business student and all I learned is about how to do business and
nothing related to blog writing. After realizing my goal of blog writer I started to develop my
skills that are required in order to achieve those goals. I started spending most of my time in
reading blogs so that I can understand traits that are necessary for a good blog such as attractive
headlines, attractive topics, etc. In order to understand the structure of the posts, I started
analyzing and observing the articles of popular blogs (Rodríguez-Castro, M., 2018.). I also
searched different styles of blog writing on the internet so that I can find the best suitable match
according to my skills. But still even after developing skills that are required it took a long time
for completion of my very first blog that I wrote. I got to find about my mistakes and my actual
skills only after that.
