I Can Be Your Teacher Or Writer…

(Edited)

Ever since I was young, writing has always been one of my favorite things to do. I still remember vividly when I wanted to print my first story but I didn’t have enough funds to do so. Aside from Hive blogging, I’m sure each of us have what we do because we can’t depend too much on Hive blogging. We gotta have a work to support our earnings here too and that comes my other jobs.

Presently, I do two things aside from me coming to write on Hive blog and they are:

Teaching

I never wanted to study an educational course but at the same time, I just had to since it still pertains to the course I really wish to study. Also, I never wanted to be a teacher but I guess God wants it that way.

Firstly, I’m a teacher and I work in a big school that pays well. Well, I’m not a full time worker and my working regime there will end in two weeks from now. The job has been challenging and I hardly have the time for myself. I’m sure so many people here will be wondering why I don’t have time for myself but it is just the truth.

Also, teaching and controlling kids is not an easy task and there are so many times when I will be frustrated because of how they behave an all. Luckily for me, after school, I have a boy whom I teach extra lesson and I am well paid too so it is just like double money for me since I can earn from school and also from the extra lesson I teach the boy.

Writing

This is the second job I do and I mostly do it online. Let’s forget about me writing on Hive blog. I write on other blogs too and I get paid directly from the owners of those blogs. I write scripts too or even anything you can ever imagine. As long as it has to do with writing, I always put in my best.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the time to write and it is looking like I have dedicated all of my time to teaching which is not something I want to do in my whole life. At some point, I’m feeling like I’m being rusty because I no longer write like I used to. The people who have seen the works I do have givem me jobs but I’m not able to do them because I hardly have the time to do so. You know writing has to do with thinking about what to write, the time you need to meditate and all but I don’t have that time. It is either I’m doing this or that. Even while writing on Hive, I’m always in a rush because I have to finish other tasks I have on my table.

The good thing is that I am just glad that I am stopping the teaching job in two weeks so I can focus fully on writing and also look for how to improve my writing skills too.

For now, aside from being a Hive blogger, I’m a teacher and also a writer.

I'm sorry to hear your teaching job is coming to an end, though maybe it will give you a chance to reassess and figure out how best to move forward? I have many friends who teach and, like you said, it seems to take over their lives. Which isn't ideal. So hoping you find a balance in your life :)

Stopping the job is the best way I feel I can find a balance and I will be able to focus on my writing career and other things I wish to do
