Learnings And Realizations After Hive Onboarding Orientation
I joined hive last month to earn more and explore other blogging platforms. First, I joined under the referral link of Meitanteikudo but I haven't saved my Hive Keys. Sometimes, I'm clicking fast without reading because of the eagerness to dive in faster. When I tried to log in my account in another browser, it was needed and that was when I realized that I shouldn't be hasty without understanding the process properly.
I made an account again and that was when ayane-chan was born on the Hive platform. I made an introduction about myself so the readers and curators could know me but I don't have any clue about the proper hashtags to be used and the proper community where I should submit it. Since I don't have any Hive Power, I can't engage in the platform well. I haven't been active there since I posted my introduction a month ago.
When I read an article of tpdkai about the onboarding orientation of Hive Ph, I decided to be active again. I joined the Discord Server and asked some delegations from tpdkai, then received 40 HP. It was all thanks to him that I was able to build my name on Hive again.
Last night, at 7 pm on Google Meet, the orientation was done. They explained,
What is Hive?
Its features
The communities
The curators
How to make an introduction?
Proper hashtags
Dos and don'ts
Wallet
Hive token
Hive power
Hive Backed Dollars
Codes and formatting techniques
and a lot more. The hosts were in presenting and made sure that we can understand how Hive works for there was a Question and Answer portion in the end.
When the Orientation has ended, I have these realizations, too.
I should improve my English Speaking Skills.
I got inspired when I heard them speaking fluently. They sounded like professionals and it was nice listening to how they pronounced every word. For sure, I can write decent English articles but when it comes to speaking, I often stutter and sometimes I'm out of words. Living in a city where only BPO companies and English Tutorials have better job offers, I badly need that skill.
Learn how to do presentations.
During high school, we often have reporting in class. Since I'm an introvert and I'm not good at speaking in front of the class, I always find a way to skip that. I succeeded until graduation. I never got to experience doing presentations in my whole high school life. Last night, when I saw how they presented the topics, I realized what I have been missing in my life. I shouldn't have ditched those reports and I should have built my confidence instead. Well, it is already in the past.
Learn more about CSS.
They're using the language when uploading photos and adding links. I have tried to learn this before but I don't take the class seriously. Now, I'm regretting it. I have all the resources I need but I let the laziness in me get into my head. Now, I'm facing the consequences.
It was a blast!
Hive is indeed a complicated platform and the tutorials are overwhelming. Until now, I can't still absorb all of the information that I have learned. I believe, I can just learn all of it along the way by consistent learning, writing, and earning. The experience was the same when I was a newbie in read.cash and it was much worse since I didn't have any idea about cryptocurrency but nothing couldn't be learned with a consistent learner.
Thanks for reading!

I'm grateful that you read this and I appreciate seeing you in my sponsor's block.
You are doing good Ayane and for sure you will be far better than the predecessors that mentored you. Speaking will go naturally in the future as you get exposed to multiple media and practice. I am an introvert as well but an online extrovert ( forced) in that way I get more networks along the process.
Keep on doing what you love, write, speak out loud and you will be an amazing one here and even in Hive.
