I've been in the crypto space for quite a while now, around 3-4 years minus the off and times but more of my active times were spent on Hive as a creator. Looking back at how far I've come from developing myself in writing to be a better creator and tapping into several aspects of crypto that fits my lifestyle and financial goals, I'm pretty comfortable with my growth and I'm just striving to be better in the space.
However, I felt making apost like like would help those just new in the space make decisions faster, and help them understand the space better which of course helps with the way the crypto space is structured. In my opinion, information is definitely the biggest key to growth in thr cryptospace and accessing to it definitely makes the journey much more easier.
If I was to start all over again, the first thing I'd do I'd to find a community and stick with them. When I started with cryptos, I was riding solo ans trying to figure out things on my own. Of course I read articles and watched YouTube videos, but the benefits of these aren't even close to tge benefit one would get by growing with a community of people already in the cryptospace who can share their experiences and can guide others through phases that would normally take so much time and effort. A community of like minds also makes growth in the crypto space easy as people bring and talk about oppportuinities and link others to life changing events. As much as crypto seems liek a one man game, it isn't.
Also, I would develop myself in skills that are highly valued in this space and iny opinion, so far, the three skills I've found to be of high value here are writing, creating art and programming. These skills are skills anyone could learn easily with just the write guidance and of course with dedication and consistency. They also aren't skills that would lose value even in centuries to come and so equipping ourselves with these skills or any other skills we believe are of high value would only be to our advantage. I'm also still trying my best to improve in the skills I mentioned because there's still so much opportunities for everyone out here and only those who are equipped with high valued skills be benefit the most.
Finally, to keep researching and finding new opportunities. At some point, I felt comfortable with my level of growth in the space and didn't bother looking out for new opportunities so by the time I finally got involved with these oppportuinities, it was already pretty crowded and growing is pretty tough. There's are hundreds of new projects being built in this space on.a daily basis and chances are soem of these project are gonna be successful. This doesn't mean we should be involved with everything, we really can't. But some opportunities have much more potentials than some, it's trying to transport ourselves somewhere, a bike will get us there faster than a bicycle, a car will get us there faster than a bike, a plain will get us there faster than a car. Hence its best to diversify and keep checking out new opportunities as some opportunities will catapult us more than we could've ever imagined.
I'm working on all of the things I've listed in this post and I hope others find them useful as well as they journey through this space.
