Finding Harmony: How I Make Time For Work While Focusing On School

The world we live in is of great inequality where some people easily get what they want while others struggle to make a living. Do you think the world would be a better place if people struggled less to make a living? I mean, do you think things would be better if people didn't have to work their brains off before making a penny? Life can be a struggle, while some people work for several hours doing strenuous jobs just to make a living and put food on their tables, others find it very easy. For many people, making a living can be a real tug of war. They struggle to pay bills, they work for long hours, and at the end of the day, the money never seems to go around. But for others, making a living comes easily. I guess they are just lucky or fate is on their side.

Now, back to my question. Do you think the world would be better if people struggled less to make a living? How about I pitch it this way; do you think the world would be a better place if people were rewarded (in the form of wages or salary) based on the efforts they put in their work? For example, a teacher who works from 8 am to 5 pm will get better pay than a person who works just for 2 hours. Although I know this also has pitfalls, I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

My point is; that in life, so many people struggle so hard to make a living. So many people here on the blockchain cannot rely on their jobs. I don’t know about other countries, but I’m pretty sure 60% of Nigerians on this blockchain are not getting paid enough money. Thanks to Hive and other online businesses, people have been able to sort their bills and make a living out of what they do. Besides blogging on Hive, a lot of people have other jobs. What job do you do?

There's something about working with your hands that can be very satisfying. When you build something with your own two hands, you can accomplish something. There’s this sense of pride that flows in my veins when I do something rather than wait for someone to help me out. Growing up, I learnt how to not rely on others for my wants and sometimes, needs. that you might not get from other types of work. Shortly after I graduated from secondary school, I started working in an elementary school. This explains how much I love being independent.

Being a student while also earning an income can be a real challenge, especially if your studies are wise and stressful. However, I have found a way to make it work through your blogging on the Hive blockchain. Currently, I don’t have a job outside the world of Hive blockchain. Blogging on Hive is my only source of income. Definitely, after graduating from the university, I have big plans to make things work out well.

Balancing school activities and Hive can be a real juggling act, especially when your course load is wide and demanding. Imagine reading and analyzing more than 40 novels and 40 poems in a semester! It takes a lot of discipline and self-motivation to strike a balance between work and Hive. Last semester, I didn’t pay enough attention to my studies, instead, I focused more on Hive. It affected my grades and that was when I learned not to make a part of me suffer because of another. Currently, my “studies” are what I do for a living and I have realized that it is best I give it the attention it deserves.
