Hello friends.I hope you are doing well.
I joined hive 2020. Knew nothing about hive or crypto-currency.I just knew a friend who invited me. He aslo gave a little bit of description of hive. I was eager to join.After creating my account I posted a few naked photos as I captured during my vacation in Darjeeling.I got a few votes with zero earning. I lost hope and then I kept no connection with hive for two years.
The person who invited me gave up hiving, so it was not my fault quitting hive. I have seen there are numerous people who join and quit hive.This is direct effect of having little knowledge about it.
Losing hope, I am quitting hive:
"I am very sorry to say what I have heard about hive is just a miss concept, I don't get vote on my post,I am dejected and so I am quitting."
I have convinced a few of friends to join hive.The above statement is made by them and this may be the same for many newbies.My article today is for them.
During those two years of no hope,I totally forgot about hive.Life has taken me to other direction.Then one day in 2022 I decided to start hiving again when a friend of my friend who lost his keys of a $100 account.He was worrying about it and asking people for help.Hearing him I said I also got a hive account. Let's me check if I had the keys of mine.It has been five crucial months of hive trying to active as much I can.
My achievement on hive:
I am the worst writer in the history of English language.I tell you why I got 20% mark in 10th standard in English😂😂.I had no good command over the language.But my biggest achievement is now I can express myself in English. You may have seen in my first post two years ago, there was no words but a few naked photos.You must understand now why the photos were without a word. During last 5 months
I regularly Keep reading people articles and trying to write regularly and I have learnt a lot and still learning the language and the entire ecosystem of hive.
Despite learning I have made many friends who are very helpful and with the help of them and also from unknown friend, I have reached 70+ HP(own). I feel good now. I can do much more better in the time ahead.
What I have done last 5 months:
I found many post about how to start being a Noobalol.😂 The common thing those article contains is engagement is the key.My focus was on engaging people as much as I could.
Rewards of engagement
I got adequate HP as help from people to complete my daily work on hive.
I got 20 HP power up from

Why hive? My take:
If you are a newbie,you should know it for saying bye-bye to disappointment or losing hope.Hive is a social media cum blogging site where we can express our thoughts, opinion ,views etc.Though,We should not be unbridled for that people don't get hurt. What differs hive from other social media is we can not get rewards from them but here in hive we can get it by communicating or engaging with people from different parts of the world.Here everybody wanna support you if you want it from them.This is the generalise view of hive you ofcourse are aware of it and that's why you come here.
If I go a little bit dipper, rewards you earn from posting an article is not mandatory , you may not get support from a person everytime.So our attitude to hive must be powering up as much as possible for that we soon reach higher HP to increase voting value.It will help securing our earning.First gain trust on hive by reading article of veteran here.
Once you gain trust in hiving and ofcourse a little bit of knowledge of it, then you can approach your friends to get them onboard.Othereise they don't listen to you.It is not there fault.It is yours if you make haste to so without proper knowledge of hive.Ofcourse I fetched it.I got to understand one most important thing that as many as people join hive and invest, it will get more decentralised.That's why we need to bring more hivers, to help them grow and to make them aware why and how they should do hive.So,If you posses extra money, must invest to power up or to hold HBD.It guarantees you earning but that earning may varies as the value of hive goes up and down.
Keep in mind I am a noobalol; for further knowledge must follow older members who are here from the begining and staking millions dollars of stake(investment) and they are not mad.
In my 5 months of hiving I haven't cash out a single dollar.All of the earning is used to power up and I will continue do that until I hold sufficient vote value. I am a person who lives on a very less monthly income but I am saving money for hive to invest. I hope soon I can do that.
Tips to myself,a noobalol:
1)Believe in the system. 2) learn hive. 3) Don't think it is a raw cash 4) Be regular 4) Don't care what you earn 5) Try to invest -try to power up 6) love hive.. and 7) Get reward of your hard work soon. I am goona read those words of mine whenever disappointment grabs(✊) me.It will work for booster dose for me.
I was planning to write my journey to and on hive and recently I read a post from @erikah. His/her title of one of his post is the inspiration keeping my title of this blog🙉. I hope he won't mind it.
All that I have mentioned here is my personal view of hive what I gathered from couple of months spending on hive.Peoole may have different perspective.If you don't like it,please ignore it.
I haven't used a single downloaded photo in my post. Today I am thinking what I should do and where I should post the content and I can't decide it.Someone in OCD told me if my post doesn't suit any community ,I can post it here.So I decided to post it here in OCD and still haven't added any photo. Let me think what I can do🙉🙉.
Till now I had no footer in my blog.I wanna thanks @brittandjosie for encouraging me to add a footer, she reminded me a few times that I should make a footer for that it looks professional.Finally I made it and I am gonna add it today.
I personally don't like the footer very much ; in the next post I will make it better.
I don't know if anyone of you are still here.
Still thanks a lot for visiting.
Have a good day.
