I believe it's a normal thing for me or anyone else to get tired of staying here on Hive because, in life, so many things do happen in different ways, and I think none of those things happen without a reason. So if one day I decide to leave Hive completely, maybe something must have caused it.
To be honest, there were moments when I felt like I was wasting my time creating content on Hive, and that was when I started getting low upvotes.
At that time, it was about six months after I joined Hive, not even when I started because, when I started, everything was moving well. Though I was new then, I was getting a lot of support from my mentor, who had always been there for me. It's not like he is not supporting me up till now, but sometimes there were moments when I needed much time to concentrate on my workplace, which is the business I handle. This is because I am the manager of a provision, wine, and cosmetic shop where we sell wholesale, retail, and directly to final consumers.
I am the only one who manages the business aside from my boss, and sometimes the work usually gets very hard on me. That is because I have a lot of things to manage on my own, especially when my boss is not around. I can comfortably say that my content then was not as good as it should have been because my brain needed some time to rest, and I wasn't getting that. So spending time creating content and, at the same time, handling a lot of work made everything more complicated.
And you know one thing about creating content on Hive: it's not like centralized social media where you just write a single line or two lines with an image, and then your content is ready. Here on Hive, you have to go into detail about what you are emphasising or what you are trying to put across in order to pass a positive impact to viewers.
Even when I decided to quit Hive for some time, I still logged in and viewed other people's posts. I still believed I had something I could do, but I couldn't help myself. I also thought of looking for a different side hustle that I could use to support myself and move on. At that time, I thought about Facebook content creation where I could get monetized and continue from there. I tried doing that. At first, it felt good, but after a month plus, I started feeling bored, and the mindset of coming back to Hive began ringing in my head. Then I decided to do so.
Today, I am fully back, and the mindset of leaving Hive is something I pray never comes my way, and I don't think it will. That is because I have already set the right table and the right strategy that I will be using in order to make my stay here on Hive better than how it used to be.
