The last few days has been a bit mentally strenuous and physically uncomfortable for me, but like most challenges in my life; I will pull through. This won't be any different.
I saw a HIVE Tweet from the awesome 
Needless to say, the TWEET and his post came along my timeline at the perfect time during my recovery.
Doze is a very generous guy and produces a lot of awesome HIVE images and allows members to use them without any strings attached and I dig his stuff; so I proudly use some of them with some color changes I may make using CANVA, here and there.
It's also important to know, Doze is part of a team that has a proposal for an exciting addition to HIVE called HIVELAND - I voted for the proposal. It looks like another game changer for this blockchain.
He also creates some badass NFT's.
Ok, he's not looking for a War and Peace type post; so I want to keep this short and sweet.
MY HIVE PURPOSE
I give credit to the CTP team - 
When I came on board, my mentality was geared to some of the old habits (some bad) that I came with to this blockchain. That dissipated quickly, as I realized the power of community and how important it is to do everything opposite what we are conditioned to do as affiliate marketers.
If what we do on HIVE (the correct way) is done off chain; there will be a lot less failure for those still searching for the ill-fated magic pill.
Although, I still dabble with some email marketing to grow my subscribers list on centralized platforms; I do so by working on introducing folks to HIVE through ListNerds. Slower process, but not concerned about that.
Yes, like most folks I want to earn enough through my activity and investment on HIVE and for myself to retire comfortable enough NOT to rely on anyone taking care of me and my fiancé when we retire.
More importantly, my HIVE purpose includes growing my reputation, HIVE power and personal brand in this amazing community; so I can be an integral part of it's continued growth and to motivate newcomers and veterans on the blockchain by being active and showing support on a daily basis.
