The Pivot Without the Haste

Hello Fellow Alivers and Hivers, I hope that you are Alive and Thriving yesterday, today and always 🙏

It's been a minute, since I posted an Alive and Thriving post and it's definitely one of the things I hope to increase the frequency of, in the upcoming year.

This past August, I hit the year mark as a HIVER; but last February is where I actually posted for the first time and I don't believe I ever stopped. Even through my battle with COVID this past March, I did a little something something.

I mention this, because February of 2022 is fast approaching and although I became one year official in August; I will always consider that month for my personal timeline, being an ACTIVE member on this amazing blockchain.

Since February, I've had a handful of Ups and Downs; just like so many many many people and I like to think that everything happens for a reason.

The pandemic, regardless of what your thoughts on it are; it opened the doors for many of us to pivot into other possibilities in our lives.

Many of us realized that we were truly in shit jobs, that there is a world out there bigger than anyone can ever imagine, it allowed people with so much potential to realize that potential and to allow them to put more energy into what they truly were put on this earth to do.

I believe that as screwed up as this whole pandemic shit is, that it provided us with a brand new canvas and we as a society are benefiting from it.

Yes, the powers that be; continue their crap and it will continue to be suppressive, but this time around - they are in for a much bigger fight.

The reason? We know how powerful we can truly be.

At my age, I won't see a lot of what the younger generation will get to see; but I'm part of this community and at 55 years old, while I continue to take my health and fitness seriously - I'm working hard to benefit from it, but so excited to see the daily growth of HIVE and some of the awesome tribes on it.

The We Are Alive tribe is a perfect example of how amazing people are. I may not throw up a post everyday like I do an @actifit and a @lukeisalive post, but I see, read, upvote on many amazing posts by this tribe and our fearless leader @flaxz - who is one of the hardest working HIVERS I've seen.

I've taken my time and try for it not to overwhelm me, although admittedly; it does. I mean trying to figure out the intricacies of the investing, the gaming aspect, the goals and all the cool stuff that everyone does on HIVE - is just spectacular.

My approach has been to keep it simple. I found a nice comfort zone with the ActiFit and Luke is Alive postings with the occasional I Am Alive and Alive and Thriving posts and I make sure to show up daily and be active in one form or another as well as do some HIVE blasts on Twitter.

I transitioned into HIVE from my online marketing journey when I upgraded my @clicktrackprofit membership as well as join their Inner Circle Telegram group. They have been an incredible source of inspiration and mentorship.

It was nice to see today, my name coming up on the CTP Top 50 Through November posted by @aslehansen - I appreciate this very much, because sometimes I feel like I'm not doing enough; but showing up on these lists gives me a sense of accomplishment.

I also want to give a shoutout to the @dbuzz platform as I've taken to do a little motivational post each morning for the last couple of months and it's always cool to at least spread my motivational enthusiasm; especially that I post those before 5am most of the time and right before I'm heading to go workout, as I'm jazzing myself up simultaneously.

2022 is just a few weeks away and although I still am employed (blessed and thankful), but I intend to immerse myself even more into HIVE.
