Revitalizing My HIVE Blog with InLeo Premium: A Personal Reflection
I was gifted a month in InLeo Premium!!! Yes!!! Wow, what can I say that I didn't have already on Twitter or in my HIVE account? I’m so thrilled! To get one month of InLeo Premium is like a dream! Why? Well, there are a lot of advantages to get premium on the first place. On the other hand, it’s something that for a long time I thought it was beyond my budget. I wanted to get back to write from some time now, but I’ve never found the time or that perfect topic to make a comeback, and let’s be honest here, I also lacked the motivation to do it.
What happened to me and why I stood away from HIVE blogging
It’s complicated guys, this is not something I usually write about. However, I talk about this with everybody around me all the time. It’s a mix of internal and external factors. I used to write some detailed reports about my experiences with Splinterlands, a game that I love and still play daily. That means, I got plenty of material to write about it, so it’s not that I’m out of ideas.
The rocky comeback to write. AI generated image.A friend told me months ago that I am probably a person that gets bored easily and I think he’s right. After a while doing the same, week after week, I got bored. I also got burned out. Sometimes those reports took me a whole week to make, compiling the data, finding and retouching the pictures, writing the text, and promoting it on Twitter, as well as in the different Discords. Although the reports were good and lengthy, they were not enough for some curators, and sometimes that work that took a long time to create was simply minimized.
Ok, I get it. It’s not their fault! I understand that I have to keep the perspective of things and think that may be they were also bored of reading the same stuff weekly for more than a year. To add insult to injury, I wrote them in Spanish language. It is important to me to promote Splinterlands in Spanish because there’s plenty of material in English already. At the time, there was not enough material in my language about the game and I thought that I could fill that void.
I’m also stubborn. I don’t like to write an article in two languages. I know why people do it, and I respect their decision, but I don’t consider it a good practice. That could be a topic for another blog, but suffice to say that I plan to stick to this principle: If I write a topic in a certain language, I won’t translate it in the same post.
I also don’t like automatic translators. You see, I had enough bad experiences with them in the past and although I also understand why people use it, I prefer to stay away from them. I’m not judging! It’s just not for me.
I will do my best to keep it up with discipline.Thank you for this gift! AI generated image.
So what are my plans from now on for my HIVE blog now that I got InLeo Premium?
To be honest, I don’t know. I still love Splinterlands and I also love the whole HIVE ecosystem. All this has grown beyond my wildest dreams since I joined Steemit 7 years ago. I think we also grew as a community, not only technologically speaking which is simply fabulous! We grew up from the days of bidding bots and weekly whale fights to our current day with different communities organizing meetups and projects all around the world! Technologically, we evolved from just plain vanilla blogging to people doing video essays, DeFi solutions, blockchain videogames, twitter alternatives like Threads and Dbuzz, and the absolutely gorgeous Instagram-like frontend built in house, Liketu. I am really proud of you, guys. I mean it, seriously! You are an inspiration to me!
For that reason, I think I should be doing more stuff related with HIVE as a whole. I’m also very grateful with @khaleelkazi, who kindly gifted me this awesome InLeo Premium subscription for a month. I think I need to take advantage of this new chance to begin writing stuff regularly again. I took part in the InLeo Zealy campaigns and I was impressed by the commitment and professionalism of their team. I’ll try to not let you down, man! Thanks a million!!!
I got the InLeo Premium'sorange check mark! Awesome!
Although I don’t consider myself a writer, I think writing has a truly therapeutic effect on me. For many years I doubted of it, mostly because I was forced to write stuff, and that was so stressful that it made me feel like writing was some kind of jail for the soul. After my father passed away three years ago, writing became like a need to express myself out of the pain and the loss. I even wrote as if I was possessed by some kind of monster! And after a while the crave for writing stopped. I felt empty, but relieved. A cathartic experience, indeed.
Maybe that was the reason I was so hesitant to write again. But maybe I think that’s precisely the reason why I should begin anew. It wasn’t a jail, after all! I just don’t like to do it forcibly, and that I think, was just why I stopped in the first place. It felt like a drudge, but I don’t have to let it become one!
Cpol supercharged with InLeo Premium! AI generated image.So the clock is ticking and a month passes pretty quickly. I promise that I will try to find something interesting to say, guys. The most probably is it will be from Splinterlands. I will continue writing also in Spanish because it’s much more natural and faster to write stuff for me that way. However, I will try to write from time to time in English. Writing in a foreign language always helps me to practice my writing skills at the same time that helps me to articulate my ideas differently due to the shift in the language logic. I would love also to do it in German, but that would be absolutely painful and pitiful to read! Trust me!
Thank you so much for reading until here and I see you hopefully very soon!

Hello, good to have you back. Congratulations for getting InLeo Premium, I think we are lucky, since during this month I also had the chance to be one of those lucky ones. I would like to thank you, for your return, as I enjoy your posts. I am also finding it more difficult to write, as sometimes I feel saturated. And if the content is not going to be of quality, I try not to do it. Have a happy afternoon. A big hug.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Luis! Congratulations for your InLeo Premium, too! It's awesome really! I hope you can keep writing! I will try to do it as regularly as possible, but sometimes as you said it's hard with so many things to do. Thank you again for your encouragement!!! !PIZZA !PGM !CTP !BBH !HUESO

Esto que te paso es muy común, es fácil saturarse de hacer siempre lo mismo, si aún no sientes que estás preparando para continuar, te recomiendo que vayas de apoco, aquí dicen que nada obligado es bueno, cuando escribas en hive, que sea porque quieres y no por obligación, siempre es bueno saber que estás allí, no te vayas amigo de coco.
¡Escribí dos veces un montón y se borró! ¿Qué estará pasando? ¿Estará esto poseído? ¡Muchas gracias por tus palabras de aliento, Mayi! ¡Vamos a ver si me animo a escribir más! Con esto del Premium quiero experimentar y ver si vale la pena por mi mismo. También me pasaba que no me sentía bien física ni anímicamente. Como si tuviera una alergia o una infección combinado con una depresión. Es muy raro de describir. ¡Saludos!

I quite understand there are times where we run out of ideas or let me say we get burnt out and that's why it is necessary to go on a break to get refresh
Yeah, but I think 2 years is a long time for a break of doing something regularly. Thank you for coming by! !PIZZA !PGM !CTP !BBH !HUESO
