I have always had these inclination towards writing, by these time i've already started some mini write ups post on my FB account and before then i had started up something about writing and in 2016 i had launch my first book.
I was like if theres a place where one can write and earn cause i really wanted to up my game and be more and do more with my writting, even tho i know FB wasnt paying me at the time i just wanted to do something cause i felt there are people out there who need to read up something educative, inspiring, motivating, so for the love of these i just kept writing.
Back then i met with my mentor who introduced me to hive and created an account for me, at first when he told me about a place i would be able to write and earn crypto, like real money it sounded unbeliveable, all he told me then was use your own words, your own pictures, so i understood that it has to be 100% authentic and original content from you, your own perspective and views, that's all i needed know and boom i start.
Rome wasn't built in a Day.....Go take a look at Rome now
I've been on the blockchain for Approximately Two years Ten months, and by october these year would make me Three years, and all through these number of years i can tell you for free the results and positive impact of hive on my psychology has been awesome amd amazing, i'm like who wouldn't want to be on hive?.
LEARN
I literally had to learn everything from scratch personally, since it was about understanding the rules and abiding by it, so i began to learn on the go, implimenting everyone of them, i began to follow like minded individuals whom @galenkp was one of the very first account i learned a lot from.
Hive has impacted me positively from all ends, first i'm able to read, comprehend better, learn from others experience via their content published on hive's various community.
ENGAGEMENT
when it comes to interacting with others sharing a perspective on what is been said, dropping meaningfull comment to let the creator knows that you actually share in his or her mindset, this also was one of the very thing i learnt and held on to during my early days on the chain, by so doing i was able to share my visibility and get to meet and interact with others gave and recieved meaninful replies as well, i've actually met and learned a lot from these.
SHARPENED ORATORY SKILLS AND UPDATED VOCABULARY
Here's the best part been on hive has tremendously sharpened my oratory skills, how i talk, my flow of fluent English, i feel so much that i can literaily stand in front of over a million audience and deliver a speech without any speech glitch, hive has so built me in differnt ways I'm so grateful to the chain and that i was introduced at a time when i needed it the most..
Going over my writing skills also have greatly improved, its ten times better than it was, my use of words, that best fit in a more appropriate context that would best create a picture of what i have in mind such that my audience would grasp my inner mind and perspective..
Thanks @Galenkp for these #reflectonhive prompt, it has really helped me renew some Of the things that i've learnt all these years
There are definitely quite a few benefits of being on hive and one of the ones you talk about has been great for the people who aren’t as formal or fluent or it isn’t their first language: the chance to write and engage in English every day, to expand their skills and vocabulary! That’s a wonderful aspect of it for sure, getting to write in it all the time but not writing into a vacuum that is Fakebook where really nobody reads it, especially no humans. On hive, you’re getting humans to read and give you feedback, comments and developing relationships. I think that’s one of the best strengths of hive by far!
Heck even me who’s a natural speaker of the language has been able to improve my writing and oral skills because of it! One of the many benefits of the platform :D
I’m glad it’s almost 3 years for you, and that it’s been a much better 3 years here than it has on other platforms. Keep up your writing and you’ll be better overall having been on here instead of elsewhere! Looking forward to seeing you around!
Congratulations on your achievements @eminentsam48. I love reading posts like this. It inspires me more as I continue my Hive journey. 🫶
