As human, we all have people we look up to that inspires us to keep moving forward. Sometimes they are the reason why we can't give up because the more we look up to them the more we want to make progress in life. They influence our thoughts and actions positively.
Being a role model to someone is not just to give advice, it is beyond just telling them what to do. It is about using your progress to guide and encourage them as well. Having a role model is not a bad thing because sometimes we might get tired on the path we are travelling on and that's where the impact of a role model comes in.
I have a role model on Hive Blockchain, and he is not just a role model to me but he is also my mentor both on Hive Blockchain and offline as well.
If not for my mentor who keep pushing me to do more, I might have given up on Hive Blockchain when I first joined. Some months back I was introduced to Hive Blockchain by . He knows I can handle blogging but I am too lazy to compile things together and make it whole so he said to me, "Hive is the best place for you".
I registered as said by George and I made an introductory post. I got a good upvote which I was happy about and my next article and more after it had nothing. I got discouraged and left for some days without checking what was going on here on Hive.
He noticed that he never seen my post so he sent me a message that I should write and send it to him, he said he needed to read my post before I posted it. I did as he asked and I was surprised when he told me that my post was very good which inspired me to come back online.
I made the third post and nobody engaged on it so I went back to my mentor to ask why I didn't get engagement on my content and he said to me, "If you don't engage with people nobody will engage with you, so once you join any community, try as much as possible to engage on the community".
I went back online to give it a try and boom people began to engage on my post. Ever since then, I haven't joked with anything he told me to do on the Blockchain because everything he has told me to do to keep moving forward on Hive Blockchain works out for me.
There was a time I noticed he wasn't getting upvotes so I felt reluctant to ask him things, he figured out I wasn't doing something right and he still took time to put me through
Ever since I started blogging George has always been my role model, the one that put me through on every platform I found myself, and I am grateful that I have the opportunity to know him and I never regret him being my role model on Hive Blockchain.
