Yesterday, I did a small power-up of 50 hive, this felt unsatisfying and frustrating, the figures are not piling up like I wanted and I've been trying to blame myself a lot, maybe this can push in some creative motivation to do risky things to raise money, but I hadn't been paid from the external gigs I have doing.

 I've been taking the time to do menial gigs to see if can raise funds to buy more hive, while having the security of the rest to run my daily **life transactions,** but it's been hard. 

My life has been unstable for a while now, my rent expires in less than two months, and I need some funds to move to somewhere decent without activating my stress receptors, thereby leading to more sicknesses for me.

### Calculate Risks Also Carries Implications

 *you can't make omelets without breaking shells*

I'm at a crucial and delicate stage where I cannot control my finances and health implications because of the risks I might take at any time, but the grind must continue.

 This is one thing about life. Your motivation to live might wane, but your bills would still pile up. 

There are times you want to shut down or put your life on hold, especially when nothing seems to be working, but we still need to spend, biologically, we're wired to keep needing things, till we're no longer alive.

### The Hustle Never Stops


 Sometimes, our emotions might be on the low and we don't want to go on anymore, but *man's gotta eat*, and this is why the hustle never stops. 

However, the economic aspect of the world is currently negative.  Businesses are succumbing to the influx of AI. For the first time, people feel threatened by technology taking over their livelihood, their lives, and their bargaining power. 

Employers are taking advantage of the world's recession to underpay their workforce. It's either that or they face the sack.

### The Greener The Pasture.....

 Because of this, some people are leaving where they are; giving up the lives they've built, the money they've, and the stability they've established in some places in exchange for prospective greener pastures.

 The world is practically unrecognizable since COVID, in fact, people realized that crypto might have just had one of the safest havens to mitigate the financial uncertainties and implications of a pandemic like COVID-19. 

It's how the world has been, a lot of people live under the illusion of safety, until something huge as COVID shatters that mirage and they begin to seek solace.

### Crypto & The COVID Exodus


The world has forgotten they sought solace in crypto during COVID, the US government has come with their agenda, the liaison with the likes of SBF, and now we're back to *"ohhhh crypto is unsafe"* that's the human trajectory.


 Crypto was safe during the whole 2020 rally, now it's back to using the bear trajectory to sell panic and it seems to be working.

 In reality, a well-prepared person sees the bear market as an opportunity, while people who didn't prepare to take advantage of it, see it as a period of constantly lashing out: lashing out on the tech, at the US government, and finally themselves.

### FUD & The General Market Feeling


 Of course, a lot of people cannot control the general feeling of the bear market, because of the financial position they find themselves in. This is normal, but this isn't just a bear market. *It's the bearest of the bear market* It's like a wound that's constantly being picked by entities whose aim is making sure it never recovers. 

A lot of things have happened starting with Do Kwon and SBF and that was the beginning of everything. As usual, the *FUD* out there is still selling. 


Twitter, Reddit, and even other web2 spaces. Some people do it on Hive as their daily rant, I feel like they do it to scorn themselves and destabilize others to liquidate their position, but for people like us, the grind must continue.
