I am not a prophet nor am I a motivational speaker, but I do believe in the power of a positive mindset being the centripetal force behind achieving certain objectives if not all. Towards the end of the year, we all make up plans of what we want to accomplish the coming year believing to kick things off immediately the clock strikes 12 at midnight. These plans are known as new year resolutions coming with the feeling of a fresh start, a blank slate with a chance to reinvent ourselves and exterminate bad habits along with past mistakes. Change they say is constant and as a part of the human nature, we all hope to metamorphose out of our old hides through the goals we set for ourselves no matter how little they are. Yet before the first month (January) elapse, some of those goals have already been completely dead and buried under the sand of countless complications.
It is no secret to me that inconsistency happens to be an obstacle course I am still struggling to overcome making me a consistent victim to resolution abandonment. I make up new goals every year with a strengthened resolve but my lack of commitment comes out victorious and i simply end it all with the sentence " we go again next year" . However, this year my resolution on the hive blockchain ( still a newbie by the way) will be totally different and I can already see myself getting there one step at a time even amidst setbacks and shortcomings.
The Hive-verse is a very huge and intimidating space especially for a person who is still new to its algorithm. The moment I think I am learning something new or try to explore this never ending sea filled with knowledge, I either end up at a dead end or discover that I actually need a certain level of familiarity before I can completely comprehend what goes on within that niche. I constantly have to learn, unlearn, relearn but thanks to the amazing community i belong to, @favecandy and most especially my mentor @ovey10 who have continued to avail themselves to every question and challenges i encounter on this highway just so i can smoothly navigate around around the blockchain and to that I will forever remain grateful to their assistance.
My resolution for the hive this year revolved around just three basic objectives:
- Learn more about the hive through research, self study and mentorship.
- Discover my niche so I can post good quality content at least one everyday of the week.
- Stay consistent.
These three guides have not been easy but they are not unachievable. Learning about hive is a continuous process, I know more about the blockchain than I did a month ago so that's progress. I made sure to snoop around whatever I could find, did research, asked questions and so far I see positive results.
Trying to discover my niche has not been easy as I seem to pick interest in literally anything I can find even when I know deep down some of them not for me. I have joined countless communities, read their rules before trying to participate in weekly Prompts and many more. Posting contents daily is no walk in the park either and sometimes the results from my work can be heart-wrenching but I am not discouraged as I was prepared to embrace the highs and lows that come with enlightenment and if I can not make contents daily, I will just make do with the bare minimum of posting once every two days until I get there. It won't be easy but it is doable.
And finally my arch nemesis - CONSISTENCY. we always seem to meet on this narrow path. Honestly I am still completely surprised by my out . I may not be where I need to be yet but I am not losing this fight so come at me with your best shot. Embracing failure as part of the learning opportunity has helped quite a great deal. Venturing into this space I was prepared for setbacks. Each step forward is a win despite the outcome and realizing this has kept me motivated with the drive to keep fighting till consistency becomes a lifestyle.
As I look forward to the rest of the year, I am filled with curiosity, excitement and zeal. Achieving new year resolutions no longer sounds like a myth to anymore and with a resilient spirit I say to 2025 "YOU BELONG TO ME". These resolutions are not only confined to this year alone, they are foundations that will continue to contribute to my growth on the Hive environment.
I call out @fantasy001 and @royalite to join in this week's prompt.
