The Thrive on HIVE Was from the Get Go

It sucks when I can't jump into a CTP challenge, because usually it's a great exercise in consistency and content building.

My time gets limited by the day, but I've been fortunate to stay active on HIVE since February 2021 without missing a day.

As the HIVE blockchain evolves and the plethora of platforms continue to grow it allows for folks like me to mitigate the excuses.

So, I have to cut myself some slack and not beat myself up for missing some of the challenges.

Honestly, I know that there was a chance to win a prize attached to it as well and I like my share of submissions to try and win something.

But being more honest, it really wouldn't have motivated me to participate.

Now, before it starts reading like I'm shitting on the challenge; it's going to be the quite opposite.

I already breathe and live that challenge DAILY, because being part of the CTP universe has put me in a position to.

See, every effort that I put into my HIVE activity stems from my being a member of CTP.

Following @jongolson from way back in the day before blockchain, crypto and HIVE was ever a thought, I've been picking up tips from him.

Then upgrading my CTP membership years later to what is a huge part of the HIVE blockchain with ListNerds creating a bigger path to my growth.

I have very impactful moments on HIVE that has given me the motivation to keep putting in the effort to contribute to this blockchain.

One huge impact very early on when I decided to go all in on making HIVE a huge part of my daily life was participating in the classic #3stepsnoexcuses

That was the first CTP challenge on HIVE that I participated in and during that time I caught COVID which was one of the worst experiences in my life, but being on HIVE and participating in this challenge kept me sane.

The effort I put into my participation made me appreciate CTP and HIVE that much more.

Fast forward to today and the recent How To Thrive On Hive...The Challenge! a lot has happened where I have been able to participate in some fun and productive challenges not only CTP related.

The challenge includes many of the things that Jon and his team recommends you do to get ahead, to grow and to succeed on the blockchain and really what they have preached during the online marketing off-chain years.

A lot of those suggestions above to grow on HIVE I've learned from The CTP Swarm and they lead by example and it helped me follow accordingly.

For someone starting out on this blockchain and looking for a realistic map on how to grow your brand, content and rewards is spot on.

I mean, following Jon and his team's lead; showing up everyday, creating content daily, commenting are huge on it's own.

Admittedly, my Discord participation is minimal, because I have to trade that time for other and more productive activity, but I do make appearances.

Delegating in projects I believe in has been an enormous boost, investing in tokens like BRO and INDEX for those solid dividends.

Curation is a given, because to take the amazing content and content creators on this blockchain for granted is really foolish.

If you lack the time to create the content then you can make your mark by curating other's content. Guess what, join ListNerds and that can make that process seamless.

I'm not a gamer, but I delegate to Cartel, Index and others and with some of the dividend token investments I still earn from the popular games on HIVE such as Splinterlands.

Blogging and Vlogging for content creators is there for us to go all in, because there are so many options to execute those two list of goals on the latest challenge much easier.

From @dbuzz to @leofinance threads from @ctptalk to @peakd from @wearealive tribe to @threespeak video from @liketu photo content to ListNerds and SO MUCH MORE to THRIVE on HIVE!

Let's Gooooooooooooooooo!!!
