Hello beautiful people of hive and welcome to my blog.
I trust you are having a most beautiful Christmas celebration. 🎉🎉❤
This year has been a handful of blessings, joys and need I mention a lot of lessons to learn. In life, one of the principles of success is the ability to recognize your mistakes and learn from them; not just your mistakes but that of others and experiences too and I thank God for the opportunity to be able to recognize all of these.

First of all, I learnt not to expect too much from people because they will always be who they are ; no matter what they seem to be on the outside.

Some months ago, I found myself in a very terrible challenge that if not handled wisely, could alter my life in a very serious way and not just myself but my entire family as well. I was really in a fix and didn’t know how I was going to make it out of such an ordeal.
That was when I those who I could take a bullet for was nowhere to be found. Not even a single show of concern from them. That is when I realized that people cannot act above who they really are.
I was really disappointed at first but I later got to learn to just live above that and not expect so much from, them.

Secondly, I learnt who my real friends and family are.

You know your family aren’t just those who share the same blood ties with you but those who love you and stand by you no matter what whether you are good or bad.
My eyes were opened to see those who truly cared for me and were not ashamed to relate with me but keep on encouraging me. Through them, I found the strength and hope to move on with life, facing with gusto whatever it threw at me.

Finally, amongst several other things, I learnt how important it is for someone especially a lady to be engaged in something worthwhile whether a business, a skill, a job depending on her specialty that yields financial returns because of the respect, fulfilment and maturity that comes with it.

That is why I am ever grateful to God for the gift of Hive, admist meeting several amazing people on chain, to be able to earn in crypto while doing what you love ; whether writing or singing or photographing. This year also, I started my Network Marketing business and I can tell you the progress, success, increase and development that I have had is phenomenal. I saw the importance of being able to support myself as a young lady, as well as my family.
I learnt that I owe it to myself to make something out from my life: something worth celebrating and engaging in this endeavors changed my mindset about wealth and money, myself and my financial prudence as well and helped me to be able to set goals, make actions towards achieving them and measure my success.
Furthermore, I learnt to appreciate and respect myself more as a lady because I found out I was able to do things I didn’t think I could do.

Everyone is valuable, appreciate them and never look down on anyone. - Just something I felt you should know. 😇😇

What is that lesson the year 2022 taught you? Hope you don’t mind to share? 😊

This is my response to the Hive Learners Weekly Engagement Prompt which you can find here.
