I hope you all are doing well, I hope Hive has been treating you all well, have you guys made friends? Are you constantly learning the ropes? Do you feel a bit discouraged? Are you struggling with visibility? Do you think Hive is not for you? Do you see other Hiveans doing better than you? Do you feel lost in the mix? Do you want to give up?
Dearest Newbies if you are going through any of the above-mentioned categories guess what? you are not alone, you read it right, you are not alone, most oldies you see here still go through some of these but the only difference is that they don’t let that get in the way of them enjoying the platform, I go through most of these sometimes, there are times I feel so discouraged and I just skip writing for days but it doesn’t take too much to revive my Hive spirit again.
Do you want to give up real soon? Please don’t, we love to have you around and would love you to stick around here for a very long time.
Adding to most of the pieces of advice you have probably seen over and again on this blockchain which are engagement, joining community, participating in contests and prompts, etc. I would love to add practical ones to the mix.
To start with whenever you feel discouraged I would advise you to read people’s Hive anniversary posts, like they say, seeing is believing right?. Anniversaries are taken very seriously on Hive, it’s that time of the year when you go down memory lane, reminiscing about how you started on Hive and how it is going, Anniversary posts are written with so much warmth and love that you can practically feel the Hiveans emotions, you see their struggles and their successes and guess what you find it relatable and seeing how far this Hivean has gone spurs you to push harder, I get super pumped whenever I read anniversary posts. To test this my theory you can go read a random anniversary post and come back to tell me how you felt after reading it😃
Commenting nicely on other author's posts and your post, dropping comments filled with love and warmth is one thing I do, maybe it’s because of my nature as I am a big softie (you did not just read that 😂) if I love your post I don’t fail to tell you how amazing it is and I will genuinely drop a nice comment, you know that type of comment that makes the author smiles and a confirmation that he or she is doing well, that’s the type of comment I like to drop. Come to think of it don’t we all love such comments when we see them on our posts? Doesn’t it make you smile and make you want to write that instant? Yes people that’s the feeling I am talking about🥰🥰 and you know what happens when you comment nicely on people’s posts, people will want to check you out and honestly, that’s how friendships are born🥰😉
Please, newbies, refrain from dropping spam comments like “nice post”, thank you.
Keep showing up, don’t go all MIA on Hive, and expect us to remember you when you waltz back in, we love you and would want to constantly see you. Think of Hive like a newborn baby that gets used to his or her mother because the child sees his or her mother continuously.
Newbies, explore Hive, Hive is too big to get bored, and no one is gonna reprimand you for exploring rather we would even applaud you.
Newbies, Hive is sweet when you have friends, it makes it easier for you to stay longer, you can’t find friends by vanishing. As someone would say “The most genuine friendships are born on Hive”. On Hive we don’t judge, we don’t laugh at your mistakes, we take it all in and correct and support you in the little way that we can, if you think I am wrong, try posting an embarrassing thing about yourself and watch how Hiveans are going to react to it.
Newbies, here on Hive we are one big extended family, you just have to find where you fit in and grow from there. The ride might not be smooth but trust me as you progress it gets easier and better, me for example when I newly joined I could take days and days to get inspired to write about a particular topic but with time that changed and so did my writing style change.
It can be heartbreaking when you see little or no upvotes but Hey! Just know you’d recover it soon hehehhehe.
I see you, other Hiveans see you too and we all are rooting for you both directly and indirectly, give Hive a chance and I promise you, you will never regret it😃😃
Thank you
Yours Lovely “not so Newbie”

Thank you! Thank you and Thank you!
You are amazing🥰
You are welcome sweety mi🥰❤
Wow! This is exactly what every newbie should read. Even for oldies who sometimes get discouraged, we need to focus more on the process than the monetary aspect.
I see Hive as a safe space for all. I'm always happy when I see new people coming into this amazing platform.
Keep up the good work sis.
Popped in from @dreemport #dreemerforlife
Yeah me too, I wish I could literally give all the newbies that were recently onboarded a big hug and a chair to sit down 😂😂
Thanks for taking the time to read my darling, I see you crushing it out there with your team😃
Thank you so much. You and your team are on fire. Kudos to everyone.

I hope it does because that is the plan🥰
That's a very nice suggestion to keeping one's morale up and not giving up, letting other's journey motivate you could really keep you going, i know it worked for me...
Everyone has a story to tell on this blockchain and half of them were not pleasant from the scratch
Thanks for taking the time to read👆😃
Hehehe, indeed written like a pro.
How I wish there's a way to channel all newbies to this post.
It's something you do passionately indeed and I'm down to learn that from you.
Keep doing what you do well dear
Have a nice day

Engaging is one of the key factors of blockchain because it creates awareness of your presence.
Thank you for sharing I wish you all the best
Thank you so much dear @rhyda1🥰🥰
I wish you all the best too mate😃
Commitment would be the key.
And it is way easier to engage in comments when you will find the community that matches your own ideas or hobby's.
I am here nearly half year, but I still try to find my place, but the help of experienced hivers is invaluable.
Truly invaluable, they are the stretched out hands that support us when we are down.
Thank you for stopping by @strega.azure🥰
You are most welcome!

I wish I saw an article like this when I was a newbie, hehe. But like you said, many oldies still struggle with hive but as far as we do not make it a chore;it gets fun eventually.
Came in through #dreemport.
Exactly my able leader🥰
Your highness I’m blown away by your words of wisdom🥰
Sometimes I have the same questions and doubts regarding Hive and other social media, but interestingly enough I am more encouraged to participate on Hive than anywhere else. I can feel your warmth through your words, and I encourage you to write often (so the rest of us can enjoy reading them). 🙏😃
I am trying to post one painting every day during July, I hope I will make it without missing a day. 😊 Goals like these make me push the barrier of what I would normally do and hopefully, Hiveans will recognize it.

Awwwwww your words are really sweet dear @tuisada and it means alot to me and yes I will keep writing😊😊🤗
For your painting you can do it, consistency is a virtue.
I will recognize them don't worry, I gotcha!🥰🥰
I am looking forward to reading your future posts. 🤩

This appears like when you are teaching newbies the ways and pattern to keep hiving. But it is all covered with the big softie you are because your genuine thoughts are all over the post and this would boost their zeal to do absolutely much better than they were! Thanks for taking your time doing this! #dreemerforlife #dreemport
Thank you so much dear @cescajove the girl with the "j" for love🤗🤗🥰
I see ya😉
Keep showing up until it is a habit is my advice.
Love your words, they are spot on and ever so helpful
!DHEDGE
Thank you so much T🥰🥰
My pleasure, I keep meaning to ask why so may non Ghanaians post in HiveGhana though?
I guess it is because of their prompts, this was my first time posting there though and it was because the prompt resonates with me and in addition I think Hive Ghana is open to everyone.
Hehhehhehe how do you know I am not from Ghana??
Do they have Ijaw names in Ghana...
Thank you for clarifying ... It all makes sense!
Lol this just cracked me up🤣🤣
You are welcome
hehe glad I got you smiling!
