Like I said, the blockchain has seamlessly become a part of my daily routine. I remember one time when I was considering how much time I have been spending on the blockchain. And I think it is clear; for whatever you gain value from, you are likely to remain there or keep coming around.

That has been how Hive impacted me. It doesn't just start and end with the rewards and gains; which of course, there have been a lot. Rather, it goes down more to something deeper, something within that Hive has provided; and that is the inspiration I have gained from here being on this blockchain.
On inspiration, I say that this Web3 space has done a special magic in that area. Of course, when you have a space that is diverse and multinational, creating necessary conversations and connecting individuals around the world, you should expect nothing short of wonder and inspiration. Hive has been a spark to the inspiration of many, of which I am inclusive.
I have seen a singer here take on a well-recognised stage. I believe her confidence and will to take on that stage were highly inspired and encouraged through Hive. In my own lane as a writer, Hive has been a wonderful inspiration. Getting to write in here week in and week out, or even day in and day out, you can be sure that this space offers some sort of inspiration.
I have engaged in writing contests and competitions even before joining Hive, but when you talk of consistency and now, what I see as growth, a big thanks goes to Hive. Through the works of others, some who are better than I, I have learnt much and gotten inspired to do more and better in this writing craft.

After much writing in this space, I feel the ability to take on competitions and come out with flying colours. It has inspired and developed me as a writer, something I did not really take that seriously before joining Hive, except for when I was engaging in contests or competitions. Thankfully, the skill was honed through consistent, original writing in this space.
Today, I look at how many posts I have penned down already in my time being here and it amazes me. I was speaking with a friend who wants to join and I was encouraging her to see the bigger picture; how Hive can be an inspiration and growth platform for her, citing a friend of mine who never knew anything about writing before joining. And now, he writes well.
Did I mention how the aspiring photographer in me was awakened by this blockchain? I have always wanted to do photography. Lacking of camera and professional skills, Hive showed me I can do with what I have and be appreciated for it. Though I hope to grow in it, of course, I must say the blockchain has inspired me in that area as well.
