For the past two years now of being on the hive blockchain, I can attest to the growth that has happened in my life, one of the outstanding growth that has happened to me is my improvement in thinking. I never imagined that I would become a content creator let alone engaging in something that will get my mind this engaging. Before now my thinking capacity was only limited to my studies and personal life, I barely engaged in deep contemplation or even read concerning crypto. But this few years hive has expanded my thinking capacity, it has grown my creativity, being creative has only happened to me when I came to hive, on my own as a young lady i have never dare to try something new to think of something differently from what others are doing, and again has built patience in me.

The Challenge of Creating Engaging Content
One of the most outstanding and visible changes Hive has brought into my life is the ability to think critically and creatively. Last Year my level of engagement on hive was improved, I started planning my post daily and need to brainstorm new ideas in order to be sure that what I'm writing can be related by the readers and then make some research on the particular community it best fit in. By just sitting down to do this it has made me explore different writing topics and ways to connect my readers to my write up. Writing on hive is not about putting down an article, one has to be sure that the content you're writing is relevant, it means you have to take into consideration human emotions, interest and their motivation. Just for instance join a community contest, there are areas that are expected of you to make in your writing, all this put together has made me grow in thinking analytical and creatively. Growing from a novice to a more advanced writer.
Building Patience Through the Reward System
Another invaluable lesson Hive has taught me is patience. You know has young minds we are often motivated by rewards, there is this push in the heart of young people to do something when the heart of the reward attached to it, my main motivation when I started hive ws because of the reward I heard it can possible get, nobody told me that in hive patience is required, I thought one can just put up a write up and get rewarded immediately because that was what I was used to, instant gratification. But the hive was different, waiting for a reward in a week is enough patience. The hive blockchain has instilled this mindset in me not just doing things for instant rewards, it's made me see reason why I should consider writing a more quality post and quantity to improve on myself, I realized that the mord i write the better i become, the more a thing the more beautiful ideas are coming and my typing skill has also improved so well due to consistent typing.
Resilience in the Face of Market Fluctuations
The crypto space is not for the faint hearted person because of the high level of volatility, I don't think I have ever taken a risk that serious as investing in hive. Seeing your little investing going down in terms of value is very disheartening, one can be discouraged and can be pushed to start asking some unnecessary questions whether your time of waiting and money invested is worth it. But as someone who believes in the future of hive I keep pushing forward believing that better day are coming, my terms for investment in hive is long term so I'm not that moved my the current price of things,
The ups and downs of the market are part of the investment journey, and they have taught me to stay focused on my goals regardless of external circumstances.
Conclusion
My joining in the hive blockchain has really been a transforming one, it has improved my life in so many ways, It has improved my thinking capacity wider and wider, teaching me to think critically and creatively as I try to construct content that is related with my audience and has meaning. The platform's reward system has instilled in me a sense of patience, helping me appreciate the value of waiting for quality results.
