Becoming a Minnow

Three days ago, I became a Minnow!

Wow!

I never thought I would go that far in this network! And I can tell you why.

As I said, I did my registration at the insistence of @lightcaptured but at that time, I was pretty sure, I will never use this blockchain. So, I've never been very active on Steemit, nor in the first months of Hive. I was convinced that this was not my type of site. Plus, I didn't want to face another disappointment in my life, as happened recently with the field of activity I've been in for the last few years. If you follow my blog, you already know what it's all about.

Have I been disappointed with the site so far? Oh yeah! Many times. And maybe this is the exact place to share with you how I was feeling many times since I began to post on Hive. First of all, you have to know that I'm a person who doesn't like to do my job halfway, or to put it more directly, I don't like to do my job badly. I want to like everything I put my name under. It's the same with my posts on the site. Now you can understand why I was disappointed so many times 🙂🙃

I did numerous experiments with my posts, just to find out for myself how the system works and despite everything I continued to publish there. Until I realized that it had become my place for free speech. This is the place where I can express my opinion freely, without being attacked by friends or acquaintances because of my different opinion or position, be it on political, life or purely personal issues. I really needed such a place!
Hive is also the place where I can post my unpublished photos for the first time. So, that's pretty unique place 😌

Becoming a Minnow coincided with the total Power Up I did that same day.
I read that people on Hive do this on the first day every month. But I didn't want to wait so long. I have been thinking for a long time what to do with the funds I have accumulated so far. I have economic education, however, it is still quite difficult for me to understand the essence of the whole system. Still, I decided that the best choice was to invest in my vote and to try to respond in the same way to the people who trusted me and voted for my posts regularly.

My results are modest so far, but I'm looking forward to the next that awaits me on Hive.

Cheers!
