A little update from this end!!!
So I have always been one to make a plan and stick to it meticulously and diligently. Good thing, right?? Maybe. I will let you decide.
But I also have been one to never be fully equipped (emotionally at least) to deal with the little obstacles, challenges and curve balls that life may throw at one as we strive to find our niche in this world. I just find it upsetting that things should not go as planned especially when a lot of effort has been put in place.
My phone had been on repair for up to a week and after all the financial and emotional investments that I made towards getting it fixed, it still couldn't be saved by the capable hands of the experts and so I had to get another one.
Now normally, one would expect that I simply pick up from where I stopped and carry on with whatever it is I was doing but guess what? That didn't happen!!! No sir. Instead I spent over a week stewing and obsessing over all the things I could have done and accomplished within that period and literally wanted to (that is if I already did not) throw in the towel and call it quits here on Hive.
Thankfully, after a lot of consideration, deliberation amd serious soul -searching (not to mention badgering from a certain someone 
I mean what is the worst that could possibly happen? I get little or no upvotes, likes or acknowledgedment whatsoever and I make no money? At least I get to have a place of escape. A place with the freedom to express myself in every single way as a means to preserve my sanity.

You can read all the self help books and get all the solid life lessons and tips possible, but until you actually encounter certain roadblocks and fight tooth and nail to overcome them, they would always only be lessons ( or maybe wise words of advice you have in store for the next person that comes along ).
It's not going to be easy. I would probably get frustrated and quit a couple more times in the future, but I will continue. I will strive! I will persevere!! But most of all, I will have fun and enjoy reading quality content and meeting intelligent and creative people here!
