“Every dark cloud has a silver lining.” This is the proverb I stand on and has been my motivation for the past months.
It's been a while since I published on Hive and it's so saddening. My only joy out of this is the fact that my inconsistency is never due to laziness but lack of time. I have tried my best to balance my academics with my posting on hive and engaging as I used to do before I got admission into college. It's never been easy. Hive is a great platform and a place I can't forget, I've made memories and even friends who came through for me in hard times.
Considering my academics and the Hive platform, I came to discover that my area of study is one that requires full concentration and dedication. One of the things I've tried to avoid on hive is rushing over my posts and ending up making low quality posts(probably filled with errors), and because of this, I decided to pause one, and sadly that's posting on hive. I'm still working on how to balance my academics with being consistent on the blockchain.
I believe my academics is my future and needs to be focused on right now with more effort, and that's the reason I had to pause my engagement in the last few days. This is the major reason why I'm making this post, to let my friends and the whole hive know I'm still active. Hive the best place to be and my inconsistency doesn't mean my complete absence, I'm back friends!
Nothing scares me more than my upcoming professional exams which are “one-chance exams,” failure means removal from the course. I have sacrificed a lot to be kicked out at this stage of study. This is my reason for taking a half on publishing on my blog.
It's often said that nothing good comes easy and I've come to see this is true. Studying requires discipline and self determination, all these I've cultivated to build myself towards seeing that silver lining.
