Hive, here are 10 things I don't hate about you.

“But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.” - Kat Stratford

This is one of my favourite quotes from one of my all-time favourite movies, "10 Things I Hate About You" and it's what immediately sprung to mind when I read this week's questions in the QC community.

What do you love about Hive?
What do you like about Hive?
What would you like to change about Hive?

Just like Julia Stiles' character (Kat) who was actually in love with Patrick (played by the late Heath Ledger) but found herself trying to say that in a totally backwards way, here I am attempting to do the same with Hive.

So instead of telling you the things I "love", "like" and "would like to change" about Hive the conventional way, please accept all these answers in Kat/Julia style (pun intended 😂).

I give you, 10 things I don't hate about you, Hive:

  1. I don't hate that I get to write silly posts about all manner of things, on a really wide range of topics that interest me, that educate or entertain others or simply allow me to express myself and all my... uniqueness 😅

  2. I don't hate that I am meeting people from all sorts of weird, wild and different countries around the world that I've never been to and I may never get to in my lifetime and that I get to learn from this really wide range of experiences and perspectives 😍

  3. I don't hate that I'm learning new things every single day and that I never have a chance to get bored, ever 🙃

  4. I don't hate that now have friends in countries where I've either been to visit them or figure I can go visit them in the months and years to come 😄

  5. I don't hate that there are Hive Meetups happening in different parts of the world and that I can dream about one day getting to one or more of them and hugging some dear Hivers in real life 🤗

  6. I don't hate that I'm learning bits of coding and picking up other, very unexpected skills on this ever-evolving platform 🤓

  7. I don't hate #threads and tokens and all the other strange things that are popping up as we grow as a Hive collective and that I'd never heard of or thought of before joining this blockchain.

  8. I don't hate that I can now use some jargon that will make sense to you and will totally leave my friends outside of Hive flabbergasted 🤣

  9. I don't hate that I've grown immensely as a human being in the last 16 1/2 months and that I'm a lot more grateful for the life I have a result of reading about the lives of others 😌

  10. And I definitely don't hate that I'm making money in all sorts of weird and wonderful ways online that never even occurred to me 18 months ago, and that I only see incredible potential from here.

So, there you have it: the most unconventional post I've probably ever written in all the days I've been on here 😁 If you found this post amusing or in any way helpful, if I made you smile or roll your eyes 😝 then give it an upvote and reply to me in the comments.

What do you not hate about Hive?

And I don't hate that I get to pass out random upvotes to really cool, witty, funny posts by people I don't even know yet, but I can assume will become part of my multi-faceted Hive experience!

Hey, nice to meet you too! Just looked at your recent posts. You know my sister was in Queenstown at the same as when you posted about it? Our parents live in NZ (on the north Island) and we just came back from visiting them.

Are you also an online educator? What do you teach? In my case it's languages, but I really would like to add sustainability related stuff soon.

Looking forward to other cool posts of yours!

Oh, cool!! We loved Queenstown, so much. And we're keen to go back and explore far more of NZ. 11 days is a mere start!

Yes, online educator is one way I describe my work. I teach people who give a shit about creating a new and better world for everyone how to do their life better.

So it looks like teaching them about Human Design (a profiling system based on birth data that still blows my mind almost nine years later) + trauma-informed tapping (similar to EFT - Emotional Freedom Techniques) + stuff that I do with my clients to help them understand themselves and their own patterns of behaviour better so they can create real, lasting change.

All of it is designed to further empower already fairly conscious people so more good people who want to do good things have more energy and power to do even more good things to help others and the planet.

Languages! I love learning languages. I just reinstalled Duolingo on my phone to restart my Japanese study. I was asked the other day, "Think ahead to ten years from now, what are you going to wish you'd done?"

Learn languages was the immediate answer I received from somewhere within me. So apparently it's pretty important to me and I have to stop putting it off. 🤣

Which languages do you teach, David?

Human design, trauma-informed tapping, and ETF... three things I need to look into, as all of them are completely new for me. But anything that helps people empower themselves and improve their own and each other's lives sounds like a much needed thing.

I teach English and German mostly, occasionally Spanish, and to those select few who are interested Hungarian. Compared to the first three, that one is super challenging and outside the Carpathian basin not very useful. Japanese on the other hand I found ridiculously easy, but living there for a year I got discouraged learning it when Japanese people were reluctant to speak with me in their language.

Are you fluent in multiple languages, David?

Hmm, I bet language learning is in your Human Design chart! !LOL (Occupational hazard: imagining people's birth charts in my head when I learn about them and their strengths 😂)

Bummer about the Japanese (people) not wanting to speak Japanese (language) with you when you were there. I'll take that into account when we go there. We are extremely unlikely to live there but we have a skiing holiday planned for next year so I'm hoping that a decent grasp of the basics and easy recognition of all hiragana and katakana will make it easier for me to navigate our way around the country.

Well, in the four I mentioned I certainly am. Other than that I know some other languages, some just a few words, others a bit more. In Japanese I could have a very basic conversation, order food, ask for directions, talk about likes and dislikes, and stuff like that (at least 15 years ago when I lived in Japan), but being a learner, my interaction was always far from perfect, meaning not exactly clean. And that meant that whoever was unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of my language practice was placed in this substandard interaction, making them very uncomfortable. I should add, though, that I happened to be living in the South of Nagano-ken (Shiojiri-shi, close to the lake Suwa), which was super traditional and conservative. Visiting Tokyo or even the skiing resorts in northern Nagano, this was less of a problem. So please don't let them discourage you!

Human Design Chart: Now you've gotten me curious! But in order to know my design chart, is the exact time of my birth needed? In my case the closest my mom can remember is "late afternoon-ish". That's why astrology has always been less captivating to me, never knowing my ascendance.

Oh, good to know. Thank you for saying so. I'll keep up my learning with enthusiasm then :)

Human Design Chart: Now you've gotten me curious! But in order to know my design chart, is the exact time of my birth needed? In my case the closest my mom can remember is "late afternoon-ish".

Yes, knowing your exact time of birth is somewhere between preferable and essential depending on where the planets were the day you were born. But you might be lucky. If you go to Jovian Archive you'll be able to get your free chart there. Put in the EARLIEST possible time that your Mum could have meant by "late afternoon-ish". Then save that chart.

Edit the chart and put in the LATEST that "late afternoon-ish" could have meant. Then save that chart.

Ideally, do at least one or two more times in the middle of that period to cover your bases (repeating the saving of each chart and editing the time).

Then, once you have 3 or 4 charts, see if anything big changes between them. If your TYPE & INNER AUTHORITY are the same across them all then that's more than enough to use Human Design to help you in your life. If your PROFILE also stays the same (lucky you!) and the centres (shapes) that are coloured in (vs. white) stay the same (even more luck!) then you have MORE than enough helpful info about you to use HD in your life.

And if for any reason the chart changes a LOT over that late afternoon-ish period of time then probably don't bother with HD. Unless you can get a document from your birth that states a clear time then it's probably not the best use of your time and other tools like EFT/tapping will be far more helpful for creating a (more) awesome life.

Feel free to put a picture in the comments here (or if you do a post about it, tag me?) of your HD chart/s. Just be sure to remove ALL personal identifiers!!

Well, I've tried it, using the two ends of a possible range. It was just recently that I talked about this with both of my parents, reaching the joking indefinitely definite conclusion that my birth must have occurred sometime between 4:20 and 7:11 (haha, right?) so these were the times I used here.

As it turns out, the results barely changed, my profile being one of the few points. Otherwise, my type, inner authority, and the centers in the graphic on the left stayed all the same. Now as for what it all means... well, that takes some looking into. So I thought why not just show you both:

Hiiiiiii! Sorry I disappeared for a few days. I'd replied in my head to your comment with your charts and realised just now that I hadn't actually written it down!

So... firstly, are you sure you're happy to have your date of birth on here? I get a little worried regarding security. So just a reminder if you want to remove them! (Or just scribble over your birth details!)

There are aspects of these charts that don't surprise me. I see a teacher (Defined Head and Ajna Centres) and I see someone who can communicate differently in different environments and with different people (Undefined Throat Centre). You can Google the terms I've put in parentheses to learn more about what these mean.

For the record, your Incarnation Cross is also different between the two charts, in this case it's because your Profile changed. (The 4/1 is very rare and very different to the other 11 Profiles). My GUESS is that you MIGHT be a 5/1, because 5's are OFTEN teachers. But that's not 100% the case all the time. If you're interested I would Google 4/1 and 5/1 Profiles and see which one sounds the most like you.

Also, your Design Moon changes from 36.6 (Gate 36, Line 6) to 25.2 (Gate 25, Line 2). This bit is waaaaay too deep for you to get your head around right away. But if you do find yourself diving into HD then it's important to realise the Moon placement changed.

There are some other tiny differences between the charts but it would take you years of study before you'd understand that level of nuance anyway. So have a Google and see what you learn about yourself.

The most important things to look up and understand about yourself (if you want to live a really aligned, authentic life with relationships that work really well and work that is as meaningful and enjoyable as possible) are the terms:

  • Generator (Type)
  • Sacral (Inner Authority) &
  • Wait to Respond (Strategy)

These are GAME CHANGERS!

Okay. I'll stop now. Occupational enthusiasm got the better of me :P

Hahaha, it happens to me all the time! And then people why I think it's them who stopped communication.

As for my birthday, there is no connection of it whatsoever to my Hive keys or my Keychain password. Also, various offices of various governments already have it stored somewhere, not to mention numerous tech giants. Besides, isn't it supposed to be flattering when someone remembers your birthday? 🎂

Okay, so I gotta look up Defined Head and Ajna Centers, Undefined Throat Center, as well as the Type, Inner Authority, and Strategy, all in terms of Human Design. I was actually going to read into it a bit, and I still want to, it's just that since the entire topic so completely new to me, I'm sure even the most obvious looking basics are going to be huge discoveries for me that need to be digested. But I'll get there. And then I may even write a post about it. 😁

Thanks for sending me off in this direction.

You're so welcome! Happy learning.

And to narrow it down a bit, I can tell you after almost nine years studying this system, THE most important bits to understand the answers to these questions:

  • What does it mean to be a Generator (Type)?

  • How do I follow my Strategy of Waiting to Respond (or Responding to Life)?

  • And how do I make decisions honouring my Inner Authority?

Honestly I'd probably allow yourself many many months to understand, digest and apply these to your life.

😄 It will be a game changer.
