<p>I'll be brutal here because I think this is a serious issue. I solicit that you read in between the lines so you can get my point. </p>
<p>You're in a class and you know the answer to a question, but you neither raise your hand to answer nor speak up. You could obviously be the smartest person in the class, but your voice is only heard when writing. I know some can argue that people's temperaments affect how they behave. I get their point, but I don't project it. </p><p>Unless you're living in a sane climate, then you can remain silent, but I'll urge you to speak up more. You can start by raising your hand and also sharing your views. You'll probably make mistakes, or people could laugh at you. </p><p>In the end, you'll be growing, and that's what is important. </p>
<p>I once attended an interview where only those who raised their hands and spoke were given points. I was quiet for the first two questions. When I realised someone had already scored 10 points, I jumped in. It was basically war! That's how life is most of the time.
You have to first speak and then fight to be heard. </p><p>In fact, speaking is sometimes a fight!</p>
<p>It's not supposed to be easy, but then mastery is the result of hard/smart work over time. At a point in my life, I was barely speaking my views, but overtime, I grew out of it. </p>
<p>I'm big on building in silence, but let what you've built be audible!</p><p><br></p><p>Kindly share your opinion in the comment section. </p>

If you like my insights, you can encourage me by sending a TIP. Thank you!
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
