The Here and Now on HIVE

As another year is near it's end and we start looking forward to the upcoming year, it's hard to be overly optimistic with all the madness going on in the world.

UNLESS you are on the HIVE blockchain.

I will be honest and say, being part of the HIVE community and more importantly joining and learning about it through my CLICK.TRACK.PROFIT membership will always be a monumental part of my life.

That is a huge statement, only because, I give that same love to the company where I have been entrusting my fitness at, approaching nine years.

I have a long way to reach nine years on HIVE, but I have NOT missed a day performing some sort of activity on this blockchain for almost two years.

In both cases, the core is - COMMUNITY and I value that wholeheartedly.

Outside of the blockchain and where I'm at, here in the United States and because I can't speak to what is happening in other countries our politics is a mess, our economy is shit and so on.

That is never going to change, so as an individual we have to worry about our own and push out the noise as best we can. It's not easy, because it's real life and we have to live among the craziness.

I mean, myy wife Tiffany and I have to work to pay the bills and she has three sons with one of them learning what real life is, now that he moved out to live with his girlfriend, but Tiffany has an 11 year old and a 15 year old.

Thankfully, we have pretty good jobs and I work remotely full time and she works hybrid, but currently they have them working fully remote until the end of the year.

Just like most people, we struggle to keep up with the bills, but I have always survived since I grew up in the ghettos and my Mother raised my sisters and I on welfare until I decided to start earning my way so I can have the latest kicks and support my vices at an early age.

Tiffany, the boys and I live pretty good, we own our own home and food on the table, etc. Blessed beyond measure.

For a very long time, I continue to believe there is more out there for me. Having side hustles sounds awesome, but if you don't put in TRUE EFFORT, then it means squat.

I procrastinated so much and made the same mistakes that entrepreneur wannabes make, have made and continue to make.

So I took to online marketing and liked something about it, but again, not following the process hurt my chances.

I'm tenacious, so I came back to try again and this time things were going well, but then the smartest decision I've made throughout all these years of having the opportunity to do something that will impact my life long-term where I have control of my livelihood - HIVE came along.

I'm nowhere near life changing earnings and as we all know the current price of HIVE is not at a retire today level, but we are without question on a life changing platform. The core of who believe in HIVE **beyond price **understands how much.

The opportunity we have to change lives including our own is incredible.

I'm going to stick to the CTP universe for this post, because it's crucial to my development and my progress here on HIVE.

Folks like @jongolson @blainjones @elianaicgomes and The CTP Swarm have lead by example before HIVE and now on HIVE. As members of the CTP community we know this and we have seen their impact and how they stick to their guns and produce. They take action.

There is constant development, building of community and providing ACTUAL USE CASES.

Dawg, they are massively underrated.

Their latest project is the beta of the VEEWS.io content discovery platform. That is a game changer for this blockchain.

Jon and @taskmaster4450le had @crimsonclad as a guest on their Cryptomaniacs podcast yesterday and I honestly became even more inspired about HIVE. She is fucking amazing.

I mean the last handful of SUPERSTAR guests on their show has brought to light, how impactful this blockchain is.

I mean, personally I believe it's monumental.

Fuck, this is my Apple, my Facebook, my Uber.

What do I mean by that?

I've mentioned how one of the folks I follow and have been following for years and listen to his podcasts almost everyday is GARY VAYNERCHUK and I just can relate to the guy. He invested in those companies I mentioned above and it made him a ton of money.

In a nutshell, I had the opportunity to buy stock in all those companies when they were affordable and missed out.

What creates this amazing dynamic of being on HIVE for me and having a passion for it is that I came for one reason and one reason only and I almost cringe at that thought today.

I came here, because I had one thought, "how do I make money here?" and it quickly morphed into "how do I add value to the community, the space and it's long-term stability?"

Now, I care about HIVE.

Folks, that changes everything.

Let's Gooooooooooooooooo!!!
