I have seen so many prompt entries and I can beat my chest to say even in this unfair world there are still people that are forces to be reckoned on, I see how some people draw their strengths from situations, this shows how strong and resilient some people are and I applaud them for that.
Back to myself, I was thinking before now I could handle pressure but honestly I don't know if I was deceiving myself especially when things aren't going my way, I do get to pause and ask myself if I am wasting my time or just doing what regular people are doing. Don't get me wrong, I have handled situations and people have come through for me even at my lowest and I have somehow stood alone and weather the storm but there is this particular situation I am becoming helpless and discouraged.
I joined Hive two weeks back to also share my creativity in writing and also earn from it no matter how little it will be, I never knew I was in for an adventure that will test my patience and all, my first post here which happened to be my introduction post didn't even gain traction like I saw other people's own do, I didn't just let it be my issue so I continued with the second post and honestly I don't know if people even saw it or I was just writing it for myself.
I knew from onset that sometimes I might get to start from a rough patch but but I didn't know it was going to take this long, I will just write and let it be then engage on other people's posts but at the same time i will only hope my post get voted on.
Then I read the game changer post from @abenad who talked about how she scaled through her early start here on hive, I took my time to go through the posts and she highlighted a whole lot, I ddnt know others also went through such rough start, that's why even with all the tight schedules and all I will still push over here and engage on other people's posts till I gain the traction I need.
So anytime I get to write and don't get to see a single vote on my post I will go back and read that post and the fire in me will reignite, I don't know the motivation she had to put up such masterpiece but I know for sure it was for me.
This is how I have been tapping strength from people's experience, this one is not an exception and I am hoping that with my consistency I will get the visibility I need to scale through.
Sorry @abenad for tagging you along, you really motivated me and I am willing to push this writing thing to the end.

Aww, this is so sweet. @abenad is indeed a sweet person. She interacts so well.
Sometimes, I like to check her profile myself to tap inspiration from her. 🤣
Aww Mide, that made me smile. And it’s Monday morning. Nobody smiles on Monday mornings, but you made me do that. Thank you ☺️
🧡🧡🧡
Honestly, she is very raw, I like her consistency and wish to be like her soonest.
That's good energy. Keep forging ahead!
Thank you so much @hive-naija
Wow! I don’t even know what to say.
I really am so glad that the post spoke to you. And yes, it might be a rough start but keep going, keep engaging, keep pushing! We are all rooting for you.✨
Thank you for writing that piece for me, I am personalizing it honestly.
You’re welcome
