In my opinion, the most important part of the hive blockchain is not just earning but the connection that people has built over the years. Whoever came up with these initiatives of earning and building a community of friendship is a mad genius, in a good way of course. Aside from having a back up income source, I have learned and still learning from various people around the world that I have come across through their blog posts.
Most importantly, no platform or media has given me the opportunity to see the world like hive has. If it was back in the days when technology wasn't a thing as such, it would be tagged witchcraft that one would be in their homes or locality and have a glimpse of what goes on in other parts of the world. You might want to counter my opinion with the idea of televisions and other news outlets but given my experiences I'd contend with the fact that one is organic and one is manipulated. What do I mean? With television and other media, information is being controlled. Information is released or made available based on what the authorities want the people to hear. If the authorities want to elevate themselves, they paint the perfect picture of a utopia with an apocalyptic behind the scenes. If they want to take advantage of the masses, they portray and instill fear. Basically people don't get to see the world for what it actually is and they don't get to see people for who they actually are. But we the hive blockchain, individuals get to carry us along organically into their world without any form of control or restrictions.
It is from the hive block chain that I realised we are all the same and regardless of race, we each share in another's sentiment, mentality and even experiences. Imagine my shock when I discovered that some human activities that go on in my environment are also a thing with people of other races. Sometimes, I'd blog about the ills of Nigerian society with the opinion that we are the only ones battling with survival mode. But then, someone from a different race entirely will come and share in my experience, making me discover that all over the world, it's the same Joe with just minor differences.
From the hive blockchain, I improved on my level of emotional intelligence. Being part of several communities and actively involved in some, I came to the awareness that mistakes are ok and one should not be embarrassed by it. I stopped holding back, I stopped being scared of failing. You know, one reason why we don't want to make mistakes is fear of being mocked. People are ever ready and willing to share their knowledge with you on the Blockchain. It's not a competitive race but a community of people vying to grow together. You make a mistake and you have someone around the corner give you a part on the back and tell you it's ok. They don't stop there, they guide you through the entire process and see you become a pro.
Like Shadows will always say at the end of PYPT, it's all about community. One thing for sure is, if the world can be more like the hive blockchain, I bet that poverty will not be a thing.
You see, hive is a virtual ecosystem and a ticket to financial freedom. For me, it's a great model to a sustainable future.
