> One of my fears is having someone mocking my English skills. In this case I use my fears as a tool to make sure I won’t publish mistakes on my blog. I don’t want to let it stop me from writing altogether. I want to use it as check point. I will ask some people to proof read before publishing instead. Your fears are part of who you are and use them to your benefit.

My English is pretty basic and I used to be complexed by that. Today I consider it to be a feature: more people with average level in English can read my writings without too much effort and unknown convoluted words (I had to use one to illustrate, read “complex” ;p). I really like that my knowledge didn’t improve itself but my interpretation of it did improve my way of thinking about it. There is no reality, only **your** reality. How cool is that?

*Very good article by the way, go read it!*
