I know many of you have probably wondered if anyone is (actually) reading everything you write and publish. This has happened to me, especially when I was starting this adventure of producing content and making it available digitally, even before I became part of Hive. This feeling of uncertainty and insecurity has sabotaged me a few times, causing me to even give up on some projects... But thankfully, my mindset changed, and with that, I began to have a change in thinking (and behavior) that was quite essential.
Dedicating oneself to doing something new is always frightening, because it is precisely in the uncertainty and insecurity of not being seen (or the idea of not being properly appreciated through interactions, for example) that our fears reside. Are we being read, or are we simply being ignored amidst the vast amount of other content published daily within some ecosystem we have chosen to be a part of? My personal experience tells me that we are always seen, but we are not always appreciated... Or properly recognized for what we are doing.
There are different interpretations here, and it's not up to me to say which is right and which is wrong. For a long time, I tried to better understand this doubt and find an answer, and in the absence of a definitive answer, I allowed myself to forget this feeling of "abandonment" and maintained my focus on achieving my goals. Therefore, naturally, my growth occurred, and this ended up giving traction to my content, making me visible (effectively) within this large network, where the exchange of content is massive and always very dynamic.
Yes, I know that someone is always reading what I write and publish (even if they don't read every sentence). I don't always manage to achieve the impact I expect with my posts, but that's more of a personal expectation (so I accept the frustration without major dilemmas). Overcoming this uncertainty and insecurity related to content publication and interactions has helped me move forward, not only in terms of feeling more immersed in a large project, but also in knowing that I'm improving something I really enjoy doing: writing.
Sé que muchos de ustedes probablemente se han preguntado si alguien (de verdad) lee todo lo que escriben y publican. Me ha pasado, sobre todo cuando empecé esta aventura de producir contenido y publicarlo digitalmente, incluso antes de formar parte de Hive. Esta sensación de incertidumbre e inseguridad me ha saboteado varias veces, haciéndome incluso abandonar algunos proyectos... Pero, por suerte, mi mentalidad cambió, y con ello, empecé a experimentar un cambio de mentalidad (y de comportamiento) que fue fundamental.
Dedicarse a hacer algo nuevo siempre da miedo, porque es precisamente en la incertidumbre e inseguridad de no ser vistos (o en la idea de no ser valorados adecuadamente en las interacciones, por ejemplo) donde residen nuestros miedos. ¿Nos leen o simplemente nos ignoran entre la gran cantidad de contenido que se publica a diario en algún ecosistema del que hemos elegido formar parte? Mi experiencia personal me dice que siempre somos vistos, pero no siempre apreciados... Ni reconocidos adecuadamente por lo que hacemos.
Hay diferentes interpretaciones, y no me corresponde decir cuál es correcta o incorrecta. Durante mucho tiempo intenté comprender mejor esta duda y encontrar una respuesta, y a falta de una definitiva, me permití olvidar esta sensación de “abandono” y me concentré en alcanzar mis objetivos. Así, naturalmente, crecí, lo que terminó impulsando mi contenido, haciéndome visible (efectivamente) dentro de esta gran red, donde el intercambio de contenido es masivo y siempre muy dinámico.
Sí, sé que siempre hay alguien leyendo lo que escribo y publico (aunque no lea cada frase). No siempre logro el impacto que espero con mis publicaciones, pero es más bien una expectativa personal (así que acepto la frustración sin mayores dilemas). Superar esta incertidumbre e inseguridad relacionadas con la publicación de contenido y las interacciones me ha ayudado a avanzar, no solo a sentirme más inmerso en un gran proyecto, sino también a saber que estoy mejorando algo que realmente disfruto hacer: escribir.
Eu sei que muitos de vocês já devem ter se perguntado se alguém está (de fato) lendo tudo o que é escrito e publicado por vocês. Isso já aconteceu comigo, principalmente quando eu estava começando essa aventura de produzir conteúdo e disponibilizar digitalmente antes mesmo de começar a fazer parte da Hive. Essa sensação de incerteza e insegurança já me sabotou algumas vezes, fazendo com que eu inclusive desistisse de alguns projetos... Mas o mindset felizmente mudou, e com isso, eu comecei a ter uma mudança de pensamento (e comportamento) que foi algo bastante essencial.
Se dedicar a fazer algo novo sempre assusta, porque é justamente na incerteza e na insegurança de não ser visto (ou a ideia de não ser devidamente apreciado, através das interações... por exemplo) que moram os nossos medos. Estamos sendo lidos ou estamos sendo apenas ignorados em meio a uma grande de outros tantos conteúdos que são publicados diariamente dentro de algum ecossistema do qual nós escolhemos fazer parte? Minha experiência pessoal me diz que sempre somos vistos, mas nem sempre somos apreciados... Ou devidamente reconhecidos pelo que estamos fazendo.
Há diferentes tipos de interpretações aqui, e não me cabe dizer qual é a certa e qual é a errada. Por muito tempo tentei entender melhor essa dúvida e encontrar uma resposta, e na ausência de uma resposta definitiva, me permiti esquecer esse sentimento de “abandono” e mantive o meu foco na realização dos meus objetivos. Sendo assim, naturalmente, o meu crescimento foi acontecendo e isso acabou dando tração aos meus conteúdos, me tornando visível (de maneira efetiva) dentro dessa grande cadeia, onde a troca de conteúdos é massiva e sempre muito dinâmica a todo momento.
Sim, eu sei que alguém sempre está lendo o que eu escrevo e publico (ainda que não leia cada frase do que foi escrito). Nem sempre consigo trazer o impacto esperado por mim nas minhas publicações, mas isso é mais uma expectativa de teor pessoal (então, eu aceito a frustração sem grandes dilemas). Superar essa incerteza e insegurança relacionadas as publicações de conteúdo e interações me ajudou a seguir adiante, não apenas no aspecto me sentir mais imerso dentro de um projeto grande, mas também, de saber que eu estou aprimorando algo que eu gosto bastante de fazer: escrever.

I read it! At least the English part... hahaha
I do read long posts when I have more time, or when I'm interested in the subject.
Our writing improves the more we do it, and that's a perk regardless of having readers or not. One of the purpose as to why I write is expression. It's amazing to have an audience, but some of my posts are personal... it's more like a diary in some sense, so I don't mind whether people read everything or not. Though if they did, I'm grateful. hahaha
Improving my writing has helped me a lot in this process of belonging, because it ended up bringing me a larger audience over time. The road has been long (and remains challenging), but it's always worth it.
The type of approach we take in our writing also ends up defining what types of readers we will have. It's like a niche being "fed", haha!
We learn by experience after all. :) And that's right, the road keeps going! :D
That's for sure... ^^
The experience we get, becomes a luxury item in this game.
True... It would be awesome for people to realize that. :) I just hope this experience won't be taken for granted. ^^
Fingers crossed.
Wow thank you so much on this post I do read your posts but not all,the way I love your post makes me to add you as my favourite so that I will got notified when you posted.i enjoy reading your post keep it up.👍
Sometimes I do feel if people do read my post ,I hope if I become more consistent I will people will read more
Thanks for following my work, here!
Don't give up on getting your audience, because eventually they will come. Trust me.
Thanks so much dear for motivating me I will try my best to do that dear
I read a lot of posts, but I am guilty of giving some unwarranted likes xD
I don't mind if 90% of people don't read my stuff, as long as the 10% is there, I'm happy. My friends read my stuff, that much I know for sure.
At the end of the day... It's not about quantity, but about quality.
This is all that matters.
I read most of your posts, though reading them takes away from the time I have to comment on them.
Thanks for your support.
It means a lot to know that I'm getting a consistent audience here.
I know that feeling. Sometimes it can feel pretty dark here on Hive. For some post I know that not a lot of people will be reading them because there are sportsbetting related. And Hive is no so fond on that.
Other post I sometimes do expect a lot of comments. sometimes I was right often I was wrong. But I also have posts where I don't expect a lot of feedback on, and the comments keep on printing.
But yes your posts are read.
Hive is like a game with unexpected results, haha!
Let's just enjoy what we have on our tables (and do the best with it).
Be good at what you do and also love doing it. When it comes to who and who is reading, you may get overwhelmed and stop pulling out the content. Personally, I also write so that I can learn in the process. Let's keep thinking growth.
