Sometime when you think things are going so well, reality hits and reminds you to be thankful for what you have. There are no promises of what will happen next. Everything is up to you.
I think this is the reason that I was not motivated yesterday and needed my coffee cup to remind me to "Make it Happen"
Here is the story:
I participate in the POB word of the week. The prior three weeks, my posts had been getting several up votes so I always thought this would continue. I posted this weeks write up on Tuesday.

I was excited about the posting so I checked yesterday to see how it was doing. To my surprise, not a single vote. Boy, in my mind, this was this humiliating. So far in the about two months, I had been on the hive blockchain, I always received votes on my posting.
Being brought back to reality is always humbling but it has taught me a lesson. Not everything you work on, here on the hive platform or offline in your other endeavors will produce results. When faced with a challenge is to dive back in and not give up just because you have a set back. If you believe in what you do, you should continue doing it no matter what.
I believe in the hive platform and what it has be offer. I need to learn a lot more and be patient with my progress. I have only been here for a month and a half so needed to learn this lesson.
So I will repeat yesterday's message that I shared. It is up to you to "Make it Happen", not anyone else. Your success is in your own hands. Do you give up and quit or dive in and give it your all?
I have decided to dive in and give it my all. How about you, what will you do when faced with a challenge?
