Honestly, there is no amount of thank you that will be enough to you all on hive who have been so supportive to me on Hive. When I joined #Hive 7 weeks ago, it wasn't easy for me to start. After my Introduction post, I started to read #Hiveguide and newbie guide from #ocd community. I felt like, will i be able to continue. Some of the things I read, i did not understand them and as a result, I made a lot of mistakes.
the first mistake was abuse of tag. Hmmmm, it was not easy, i used Introduceyourself tag twice, so badðŸ˜. When I was told that it is used just once on Hive, i felt so bad and i quickly let others to know about it so that, they will not repeat the same mistake. I am using this opportunity to appreciate 
Who am I
I think it will better to Introduce myself here since this is my first post here in Alive Tribe Community. My name is Blessig Uzomah from Nigeria. My username is 
My Hive journey
Jus as i mentioned earlier, my journey on Hive started October 2022 and since then it has been so funny. I remembered the first day I used esency app to make post, you need to see me fighting with the app. Lol. I began to study the app until i master it. Now i know how to earn esency point, how to comment using esency. I try hard on daily basis to be on leaders board. Although I have not be among the top 10 but i am progressing.
This is where I am today on esency leaders board
After mastering esency app, i moved to learn Leofinace front end. Another wonderful Community on Hive where learning about crypto is made easy. I tried making post there, i even tried in my own little way to participate in #LPUD. From there I started chatting on #leothreads. It is all fun. As i progress in learning more about Hive, my love to continue grows.
I also participated in #HPUD with the little hive i had,, just 10hive. It will Interest you to know that the support i received was massive. Delegation of 300hp from 3 different leaders. I was not expecting such support but it came to me. Another wonderful user gave me 25hp delegation. This helped me to also support newbie who was struggling with RC.
My Hive earnings.
I will love to tell you that, I have received support from all of you, in form of comments, replies, upvote, and tokens gift. The latest is the delegation I recieved from Alive Tribe yesterday for Day 10 live chat. My heart is overflowing with joy. Even when I was learning, i was also earning. Take a look at my earnings so far on hive.
I joined hive with 136hp but now is 181, you can see that, I have earned 45hp. This is great. I had no esency point day 1 but today I have over 2k and 7 HBD and 10 hive waiting for the next power up day. For me to earn all this in less than 2 months is a great achievement.
This is my Alive wallet. You can see 500 Alive token delegation, this is a clear evidence that I have good friends on Hive blockchain
I wouldn't have i achieve it so big if not for your support. My appreciation goes to 
I was motivated to be on leaders board each time I look at the activities of the top 10 daily. I will ask myself, can you do it, 
My determination
I have determined not to give up no matter the challenge that will come my way. I believe that quiters will never make it but only those who persist will. I know that i have not done well in the beginning but i promise that changes is part of life, am going to work hard not to repeat the same mistake again.
Hive is an international university ready to take many people to the promise land. I have learned that, I need to unlearn what i use to know about blogging and relearn it on hive. There is no comparison between web2 and web3. There is difference between decentralized platform and centralized platform. Knowing this is additional value.
For my fellow newbies on Hive, try to engage more, hive is not get rich quick and will not change because of you. Hive has high standard of education as i said it is a university. There is no favorism, no tribalism, no matter where you are coming from, just follow the rules, engage and post regularly. All the top users today was once newbies but persistency, patient and prayers brought them where they are now. The more friends you make, the more you grow your reputation and influence by powering up your tokens.
