RE: Hedge, Influence, and Growth... .:. Late Night Blogging
Good evening @ph1102, I don't really understand the reason for this series of posts (reflections) about Hive... although I can assure you that you have made me feel interested in what is to come.
I'm not a good detector of "good" or "bad" vibes in Hive since I'm just a newcomer... Although I'm sure there has to be debate even if I don't know it. There is a lot of money invested in Hive, as well as time and work.
For my part, I have never had goals in Hive, I have had several creativity crises and other almost existential ones in which I have considered stopping publishing. A few words from a friend are my current driving force... that's also what Hive has given me... friends.
I am also not obsessed with publishing, nor with demonstrating "commitment." Does stopping publishing mean stopping being a hivian? I think not necessarily.
I entered Hive commenting, I like what various creators publish and I could continue commenting on Hive. I told a great HIve veteran yesterday that Hive had already given me a lot, for example the conversation we were having or meeting hivians whom I admire in person.
In short, in Hive there must be many definitions of success.
I am also not sure if this comment is related to your publication (I apologize), although I look forward to your next reflections on what seems to be a crisis or an opportunity.
A very big hug!!
Good evening to you too! (24 hours later 😃)
There is no specific "agenda" behind this post, but more a general overview... I saw many people coming and going, and usually those who go away did it because they got into the "bad community", or maybe bad reasons... I don't know...
The whole point (not just in HIVE) is to spend quality time with good people, and to ignore bad ones... I don't see a reason to lose time to bad actors...
This advice is very good! 😃 I'm trying to stick to the same!
That's also a good point of view... I was publishing posts like crazy a few years ago... During one period, I was doing like 3 daily posts on 3 different accounts, this one, my Actifit account, and Splinterlands post! Those were crazy days...
On the other side, I decided to do more posts like this one... To share my view about things, and to attract people who think similarly... According to some comments, these posts help people to push through hard times, and I'm happy when I read that! If they do that, my mission is accomplished!
Absolutely! It's different to different people... While I said that I will not power down my HivePower ever, I do understand that the HIVE value is important to many... Not just as a purchasing value, but also as a driving force to people to stay active...
Maybe these posts help to certain people and motivate them to do better, but monetary value could drive some other people... Let's try to keep them both... :)
Have a great rest of the evening and Sunday!
Good evening @ph1102, I understand the 24 hour delay... I write too much 🫣. In any human group there is everything, good and bad things, it is foolish to keep the bad ones. So I'll try to follow your advice to approach the interesting hivians and stay away from the less interesting ones.
As for whether or not there is an agenda, I find it a very interesting type of publication. I look forward to the next ones. 😊
I hope you have a nice Sunday (and a splendid end to Saturday)
Hug!
