As some of you might know but many of you don't, I primarily rely on my crypto trading profits and NFT sales to earn a living out here in the Caribbean. Since I'm not able to get a regular job, it's not always easy to find ways to make sure to be able to afford necessities like rent, electricity, and all the other things that go along with life.
Like several other people these days, a lot of my life lately has been a battle to even make enough money to afford to eat. I obviously didn't properly prepare myself before traveling to a different country and getting stranded. I should have made better decisions and I am now paying for the lessons with a fair amount of stress! LOL
I have the feeling that no matter what I go through now, eventually, everything will work itself out and all the effort I have and will put into things will finally pay off. That's why I stay optimistic even when times are tough. After all, being upset when life is hard only makes things seem worse, if you are able to smile through it all then you will feel much better, regardless of the situation.
This is solid advice that I need to learn how to adapt to my life better because it's definitely not always easy for me to practice what I am preaching. A lot of times in the past I have let it get the best of me and I would spiral into depression which would only ever make things worse.
However, since I found Steemit back nearly 3 years ago, I've come to realize that there are plenty of ways of dealing with problems that are much healthier and blogging is definitely one of them, at least for me.
Even though it might not earn much, blogging actually brings in a decent stream of income if you stick with it and spread yourself out over multiple platforms. I haven't been blogging nearly enough lately but I intend to start, not only because I have bills that need paying but because I actually enjoy talking to many of you on here who decide to read my rants and respond.
The moral of the story is: Blogging might actually be an investment that could save people's lives. It has likely happened as I have even made the claim that Steemit saved mine, once upon a time. Blogging and blockchain have been two major blessings for me since 2018 and I honestly don't know what I would have done without them.
