First of all I need to thank God for how far He had been with me from January to this moment, It has been Him all along. Have learnt a lot this year both good and bad, numerous things that I can't even mention all, among which is Hardwork talking about hardwork, am not referring to hard labour, doing a job that requires a lot of strength but am talking about being serious and consistent in one's work.

It has helped alot in paying my bills and also saves me from some unforseen circumstances.
Above all, one great lesson have learnt this year is being able to get the right information at the right time. To explain this I need to give you a glance of how my life had been before I got the right information.
I'm a teacher (civil servant) but what I was earning was not enough to plan and work towards the kind of life I desire, I needed something extra so I went into selling shoes but online as I don't have the financial capacity to start a physical shop, the business was the only thing I could lay my hands on as at that time, I get orders from any part of the country and then I waybill it to the customer and of course I also sell to the people in my immediate environment.
The work was tedious because I was working more than what I was earning and some customers can be so mean that they don't mind frustrating one's life yet they might not be buying your goods or even buy on credit and promise to pay later, you'll start to remind them every now and then to pay, it was stressful but I had no choice I wanted something to compliment the government work I'm doing.
Along the line I got in contact with a friend of mine way back from University days, we were just discussing on phone one faithful day, I complained to him on how things were with me and all so he said he has something for me, I thought he was kidding at first just like he always does, not until he fixed a date and time we could meet to discuss more about it, that was when I knew he's serious this time. We got to meet up and he talked to me about Hive and what it's all about.

It was a very difficult thing for me at first because have never tried blogging in my life and not also good in writing right from my primary school I was just developing interest in writing when I became a teacher maybe because I don't have a choice. To cut the long story short I started blogging but it was like a punishment for me I was not finding it interesting at all to the point that I had to quit for a while, all thanks to my friend @vickoly for his constant encouragement and disturbance 😃😃 yeah I thought he was disturbing and distracting me then not knowing that he was doing me one of the greatest favour.
At the long run I started gaining interest and now the rest is history lol. It's history now because am now enjoying the platform like no other, is it the people that have been opportuned to meet? the interesting blogs? knowing more about crypto currency? etc the platform has been so amazing and something i find very difficult to do without even for a day... The information I got from him saved me till date. It's good to get the right information at the right time this will make life more easier. I hope we all continue to gain access to the right information we need at the right time.
Thanks for stopping by my blog... still in the season of festivities, have a merry Christmas and a prosperous new year in advance.
