On Self Discovery, Doggedness And Articulation.

No one is an encyclopedia of knowledge however little things, little exposure and a little spark of improvisation is what it takes to be a creative person. Truth is, creativity isn't a talent, it's a relentless effort at being consistent at improving at what you know how to do best and most times people see the herculean process of being creative and that's people. Talent itself isn't even a finished product it's a raw material that many people have failed to understand how to utilize. See our experiences and exposure polishes our in-built talents but sometimes these process happens involuntarily.
For example a person can go through heartbreak and afterwards becomes a relationship talker of which they can own a blog and educate people on the nuances of relationship, while this isn't possible for everyone most people don't feel that their experiences in life can shappen their abilities or better still; talent. For a person who feels it's difficult to be a content creator on this blockchain, first of all, self discovery is important before you can discover your niche before you can then create an identity through which people know you by.
In earnest, it's important to understand that while content creating is difficult self discovery isn't. I'm basically posting this here; in this community simply because I feel that I need to let people understand that content creation is a process, it isn't just about talking about your life, it's about finding that unique thing about you which is relevant to talk about. I understand that on YouTube people trend and have followers for doing the most stupid of things but then it's a centralised chain with only one narrow means of earning and followers and comments and subscription can be bought but then on a blockchain it's more sophisticated.
If a group wants to collectively grow, then individually each person in that group must grow. Everyone is born with an intuition and while it seems difficult to bring this intuition to life it's imperative to understand to the Internet has been tokenized and we must advance with the massive collection of knowledge that's flying around to tap from the massive richness to not only enrich yourself but to be seasoned. It's imperative for us to understand that we can't get without giving and when we don't give enough and expect to get more to give up or get angry isn't the nedt step and however trying doggedness sometimes sells even more than talent itself, but if you aren't dogged and you haven't self discovered yourself, you might be running I'm circles and have no business with being here.
This post is a wake up call, it's also an implorement, an advice and also a guide. Ideas are flying in my head but today I'm basically bringing you the need for self discovery and the reason for doggedness. The chain itself is a complicated places and this is no one's fault. I get it can be a daunting task as well but then Facebook or Instagram isn't a choice, it isn't even a solace. It's like comparing the Zimbabwean dollars with the US dollars. If it's difficult here going back to Facebook will not help you grow, earn, understand investment, participate and become an early blockchain adopter.

Indeed. Talent is just a raw product and not a finished one. One needs to be stimulated in order for talents to grow. The Nigerian environment kills talents because there are no stimulants, on the contrary, we we have is everything trying to work against you. It is well with us.
Yeah individually the environment kills talent like you said and it's honestly very painful man, really painful. But then we have to be also try to see if we individually can go the long way ourselves.
