I am over two years on hive, but I don't look it. It have really been a rough journey. It all began in the year 2022 when @ksam came across my music videos, he went on to suggest a platform where I can shear these videos of mine and get appreciated for what I do. Sam was the best thing that happened to me then and I can never thank him enough for his help and mentorship. As far as hive is concerned, I call him my boss and he will never stop being one.
MY EARLY DAYS ON HIVE
My first days on hive were probably my best, it was the case that I made up to fifty dollars from my introductory post. @ksam was amazed at my growth which was as result of constant engagement in hive communities. It continued for months but I was latter altered by my unseriousness, how I wish I continued with the force with which I began. I latter picked up from where I stopped after few months but it will not be my last time of slowing down in my activities on hive. As a matter of fact, I was unstable on hive activities for about a year and some months. It was the case that I took breaks at intervals, some of which I cannot really explain the reason behind them. I guess I have recently started finding reasons to take hive serious and it is evidenced in my activeness these days. I made a decision with regards to hive at the beginning of the year and I am keeping up with that decision to the best of my knowledge.
MY ACTIVITY IN COMMUNITIES
Even with how rough the journey was, I have made so many achievements some of which I may not even remember. The first community I ever subscribed to was @ocd, it was there that I published my first and introductory post. Coupled with the fact that it was what brought me to hive, my love for music made me join @hiveopenmic and music community. Within my first few months on hive, I was pronounced a spotlight artist and I was given the privilege to host a particular week by selecting the weeks theme. It was like my first win on hive and I felt so happy and privileged, how I wish I continued in that spirit. That notwithstanding, I have secured the position of a spotlight artist on @hiveopenmic severally after then, but the first was the most special
Within my earliest days on hive @afritunes came to being, I as a matter of fact became one of her pioneer member. It was an already established initiative by @starstrings01, @obaro and @ksam on music community that latter migrated into a community of it's own. I was indeed privileged to have been there from the beginning. Though my unseriousness never allowed me to be as active as I should be with the community's activities but I have been able to at least secure a membership with her. I guess that should be an archivement too.
Sometime last year, I joined hivenaija and hiveghana community. It was their weekly prompt that attracted me to them, but music videos remained my major reason for being on hive. Thus, I never stopped being active in the communities in which I belong.
MY CURRENT STATE ON HIVE
The nature of my job allows me no spear time, but I must remain active. I go as far depriving myself sleeps to stay active on hive. Given my tight schedule, I have not being able to make videos lately and that have affected my activeness in some music community. That not withstanding, I refuse to stay inactive on hive in general. As much as possible, I ensure that I do not fail to publish posts as often as possible.
APPRECIATION/CONCLUSION
Notwithstanding the fact that the entire hive community have positively impacted on me as an individual, I owe appreciation to two persons here on hive. The first is my boss @ksam who have been my guide, friend and teacher right from the outside world to hive. The second is @jesuslnrs; I prefer to refer to him as my guidian angel on hive. Though I do not know @jesuslnrs in person, but for reason he always watch out for me and corrects me when necessary. I am privileged to have encountered personalities like these two and writing about my journey on hive will certainly not be complete if I fail to recognize them.
