Personally I’ve gone through so many phases in my friendships and my relationship and I’ll like to share my experience with you.
I notice that whenever I don’t say anything people try to find out things about me, things I can easily tell them if they asked me, questions that are so easy to ask but what do they do? They try to be slick and corner their ways around my life. To their upmost surprise I always notice because I’m not a fool and these are people I know so it’s like hiding from the sun.
Now, what I do is tell people to their faces what they want to know, curiosity kills the cat and I sure don’t want anybody dying because they can’t mind their business oops! So I tell them, it’s like this blog of mine, so many people want to know how i created my brand but they prefer to go through the corners with passive aggression and throwing shades instead of asking hence my first blog on ‘how to build a brand’.
Here are the reasons why I stopped gatekeeping Information:
1: I realized that people are afraid of looking needy and desperate. It’s fun to watch people suffer and watch them struggle to get information out of me without asking me how (if it even makes sense atall) but I learnt that people are scared so if I want to help I should.
2: Some people have too much self pride and that’s fine. I have a huge amount of self pride too but maturity has taught me how to manage my pride in certain situations, I can’t be mad at people for not reaching this stage yet in their growth but I can enlighten them that sooner or later they need to start asking questions.
3: People are not kind but I’m different from them. Some people wouldn’t ask questions because they know if they were in my shoes they wouldn’t share atall. So they don’t expect me to share with them that’s why they try to cut corners.
4: Someone may really need my information. Like everyone else I stay on the internet a lot, I use google a lot because there are times where I need to know the meaning of somethings or the history of somebody. I’ve come across the most random things on the internet and I always wonder how they know that one day I’ll need the piece of information because obviously they just helped me (randomly). Who also doesn’t want to be of help to people? Not me though, y’all stay safe
5: Forgetfulness. I can tell you for a fact that somethings you knew 10 years ago, you don’t remember today, yes? Yes! exactfreakingly. So I was like, why not share on a platform where people can learn from instead of my brain just terminating the whole thing without my consent.
Here, those are the reasons why I stopped gatekeeping information. If there’s a topic you want me to speak on don’t hesitate in letting me know, I’m not google but I can help too.
