Role of a local guide in my life: learning, competition & responsibility

Local guides program is not a sideline for me. It has been a part of my life for a year. In my life, the role of a local guide means learning, competition and responsibility.

Playing the role of a local guide, I learnt many things. I learnt how I can help people by sharing my experiences. My experiences will help them to save their time & money. I also learnt the importance of a review. Review is not just a group of words. It’s a feeling which plays an important role in everyone’s life. It help to choose right place and helps in avoiding problems. In educational fields, it helps to choose better institutions. Etc. The main thing that I learnt, is about myself. I aware with my importance & confidence. People asks questions about different places. I feel as a guide. This is a great feeling.

The local guides program is also a type of competition for me. I started this journey as a competitor. Actually, the competition was not with other local guides. The competition was between my friend, **@**K8shows and me. We competed with each other who would write better reviews and got more views. Now, my competition is with me. I always try an improvement in my reviews to make it more helpful. Competition is a good thing to boost anyone.

I also take the local guides program as a responsibility. I take care of that my reviews should be true and self analyzed. Many people give wrong reviews to promote their platforms. This is not the right thing. People should not be misguided. Everyone should take this thing as a responsibility. In my reviews, I also focus on the problems which people can face during their visit so that they go with proper arrangements. Be a responsible local guide.
