Yesterday I quit the side gig I've been doing for over 8 months now, it was long time coming, I could have quit right in the second month, but I just needed to make a little bucket which was really so essential.
However I didn't plan to quit, the plan was to quite sometimes in March, accumulate a few bucks, but I quit earlier. The person I worked with was self egotistic, abusive, racist, ungrateful and unappreciative.
She was also lazy to the core and mostly thinks the world revolved around her. I was at church yesterday, when I got her message saying I was beginning to get lazy. That time when I was in a spiritual and sober reflection, that wasn't my time to work.
Then I began to recount how much I'd done for her. I thought her the basics of marketing, how to create web3 and blockchain content creation, monetized her twitter in 2 months (which I didn't even get any money for) her first payment was over $800 and she never gave me a dime for it, I ran PR for her and grew her account, and basically took her account down nowhere to where she is.
She reminded me of my younger self. I spat in the face of people who truly cared for me, took their care and support for granted, because I didn't know what I had.
This was in my early 20s, I was naive, young and foolish, and I was punished. Life does not excuse youthful exuberance, it punishes it, and she was a young woman who recently got divorced. She was too rash, lacked true ability for diplomacy and communication, and mostly offends people unknowingly and all this without actually learning her lesson.
I've been broke shamed by her severally, and endured all manner of verbal abuse, and since infofi was simply declining, I decided I couldn't just take it again. It didn't matter if I cut my wrist and let the blood flow out, am insatiable person is never to be pleased, and since she thinks I'm the reason why she hardly makes money anymore, I decided to quit and never look back.
I woke up to a lot of messages of apologies, but she wasn't truly sorry because she does it over and over again. I think going forward she'll learn and learn the hard away. People don't become wiser until they're firstly foolish brute and raw and this will probably be her first set of lesson classes.
As for me, I'll start seeking newer opportunities. Kaito studio will be launching soon, and I personally need to grow my Twitter account before it starts, and perhaps I can build a brand. My content focus will be web3 and football and target monetization for myself.
So while taking some break to sleep well for the first time in 8 month, I've been actively doing research on the prediction market meta I talked about. I tried seeking for help from someone, but they seemed too busy, so looks like it'll be setting a target for myself soon.
At least achieve 3k Twitter followers by the end of the year, get monetized for biweekly payment, and compete for kaito studio: rinse, repeat, until an actual or the slightest pump in alt happens.
Go on?
It's always been hard, but I don't run away from challenges. This time, I hope to actually compete and I'm going to give it my best. I've learned a lot about web2/web3 blockchain marketing and that's why I talked a lot about Hive marketing and how it's price and better tokenomics will be the best type of marketing.
I remember when I started it all over 8 months ago, I'm hoping that in 8 months time, God willing, by October I'll make another milestone post to see if I achieved any of this
