After I had written my name in the sand earlier, I suddenly remembered how hard the beginning was for me when I started my journey on the Hive blockchain.
As I often experience, every beginning to me is the hardest. Every first day is one of the hard days in my life since this is the first moment I have to try something new as I learn the art of conquering my fears.
How hard is the beginning?
It has been three months since I started to be active in the Hive ecosystem. Although I created my account five months ago, I stayed inactive because I did not know how Hive works, and I was confused.
I even remembered how the ecency platform notified me that I had been inactive for a month. And all I could recall was a notification that encouraged me to push once more, but during those days, I lacked the inspiration to keep going.
Every beginning is the most challenging part of my life.
I admit that I am not confident enough to share my thoughts, but I am very much willing to learn and move forward to be more hungry for learning. And I firmly believe that through patience, self-discipline, passion, commitment, and consistency, every difficulty becomes accessible at the perfect time.
The first seems so hard for every beginner. Still, I believe that not every master or every legend has started being the most skilled and knowledgeable individual in a particular aspect of life. But it is only through the good and bad experiences in life that one learns the most.
The first day is always the toughest. When I joined the Hive ecosystem, what I had in mind was to expect less, but I had to do my best to learn new things.
Although I am not a professional writer, deep from within, I do believe that I have to rekindle my passion for writing and that it is only through life experience that I may learn a lot as this is the best teacher in life as I am learning from doing with a good intention to connect with everybody in the community.
In addition, although my first day on the platform was full of nervousness, I was trying to share my thoughts with mixed excitement and happiness. But in a blink, I was gone. I even remembered how the ecency platform notified me that I had been inactive for a month.
And that I am always thankful to all the people who motivated me to stay in a fantastic ecosystem who are many to mention.
And the most significant motivator among them was my deceased sister, who was once so active on the blockchain. It may be so depressing and heartbreaking that she was gone, but surely she would be happy watching over from heaven that I love Hive so much. All I can say is that the Hive ecosystem is so incredible with all the tremendous people that consist of it.
Today is still hard for me since I always consider myself a beginner, but I am entering the ecosystem with a bold heart.
I wish to explore more so I can discover more. And I want to sustain dwelling on the platform for a longer time. I hope that my dream and passion for writing do not just die tomorrow and that I need more motivate myself more so I can survive every challenge in my writing journey.
The name written in the sand looks forward to a better self.
Perhaps it was the hardest, but every day, I am learning, and I always consider myself a beginner.
Every beginning is the hardest, for it is something that you have to prepare without any expertise, but as time goes by, every difficulty becomes easier. I believe that every beginner conquers it all if and only if combined with patience, self-discipline, passion, commitment, and consistency.
For as long as there is a beginning and a starting step, then there will always be a chance to begin, even if it takes starting over and over again.
How about you? How hard was the beginning for you?
