Heya, I don't want anyone to follow me anymore instead I want myself to grow so that people wish I could follow them... (Let's see when that happens)

I don't know many people here on Hive, I'm quite new yet and I'm still knowing people and learning how this works, but it would be great if @ecency and @acidyo followed me.

I could say I would like @melinda010100, @tydynrain and @zakludick to follow me, but they are already following me and I'm very grateful for it.

Best wishes for you ☺️

Go beyond! Plus Ultra!

"Who's the Person You Wish Would Follow You?"

For me, the person I wish would follow me is Elon Musk. As a visionary entrepreneur and innovator, I admire his passion for making a positive impact on the world.

I'm fascinated by his work in revolutionizing transportation, energy, and space exploration through companies like Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink. His commitment to sustainability and pushing the boundaries of what's possible is truly inspiring.

Having Elon Musk follow me would be an incredible opportunity to learn from his experiences, gain insights into his thought process, and potentially collaborate on projects that align with our shared values.

So, my good friend, in order for him to follow you, you will have to motivate him, and to do that you will have to make an effort to get his attention. It will be hard work, but you will surely succeed.

I follow someone when I find something different in them - may be the character or may be in writing or may be the importance he/she giving me. The same may be I can expect, if somebody has to follow me.

I wouldn't say I'm necessarily a fan of Elon Musk.

The reasons for why I would want him to follow me are purely financial. My thinking is that if Elon Musk would follow me, it would give me one of the best contacts in the world that I would have a reasonable shot at reaching out to.

But I do respect Elon Musk very highly amongst most billionaires/celebrities.

Hello everyone!
Today December 9, 2024, is the start of the week, day 9 on the 2024 Advent Calendar at ECENCY.
For today's question, I can answer that I currently feel like an actor who has won all the best awards in the world of acting. I say this because everyone who follows me makes me think that at some point in my life on ECENCY/HIVE they have liked my posts. When @melinda010100 followed me, I felt in heaven, that was the Oscar, it was a wonderful joy, but the joy went into the stratosphere when she commented on my suspense stories. When someone follows me, it's a triumph, it's a feeling that I'm growing on the platform.
As a Spanish speaker, my livable communities are in Spanish. This 2025 I want to browse the English-speaking communities, I don't know English very well, which has me limited to translators, but in the few English-speaking communities they have helped me improve my grammar. Therefore, I will post in that wide range of English-speaking communities to follow and hope that members of the platform who transit through those communities will follow me. By doing so, I will learn a lot and become more motivated to learn to speak English. In the not-too-distant future, I intend to reside in an English-speaking country to be able to speak English fluently. What do you recommend?
I want to improve my content so that those who are not yet on the platform can follow me, who I can help and teach this wonderful world of ECENCY and HIVE.
Happy Holidays!

¡Hola todos!
Hoy 9 de diciembre de 2024, inicio de semana, día 9 en el Calendario de Adviento 2024 en ECENCY.
Para la pregunta de hoy puedo responder que en la actualidad me siento como un actor que ha ganado todos los mejores premios que se otorgan en el mundo de la actuación. Lo digo porque todos lo que me siguen me hacen sentir que en algún momento de mi vida en ECENCY/HIVE les han agradado mis publicaciones. Cuando @melinda010100 me siguió, me sentí en el cielo, eso fue el Oscar, fue una alegría maravillosa, pero la alegría se fue a la estratosfera cuando me comentó sobre mis historias de suspenso. Cuando alguien me sigue, es un triunfo, es sentir que estoy creciendo en la plataforma.
Como hispanohablante, mis comunidades habitables son en español. Este 2025 quiero navegar por las comunidades de habla inglesa, no sé muy bien el inglés, eso me tiene limitado a los traductores, pero en las pocas comunidades de habla inglesa me han ayudado a mejorar la gramática. Por lo tanto, publicaré en ese gran abanico de comunidades de habla inglesa para seguir y esperar que me sigan miembros de la plataforma que transiten por esas comunidades. Con ello aprenderé mucho y me motivaré más para aprender hablar inglés. En un futuro que no sea lejano, pretendo residenciarme en un país de habla inglesa para poder hablarlo con fluidez. ¿Cuál me recomiendas?
Quiero mejorar mis contenidos para que me sigan aquellos que todavía no están en la plataforma, aquellos a los que pueda ayudar y enseñarles este maravilloso mundo de ECENCY e HIVE.
¡Felices fiestas!
I use CANVA to edit my images.

The best thing you can do is to learn a new language. I'm learning Spanish right now and although I'm not good at it yet, I'm learning quickly.

Who is the person you wish would follow you?

I am grateful for everyone who follows and engages with me on my posts. But if I had one wish of a person who would follow me, that would be the HIVE account @therealdonaldtrump which doesn't exist... yet. Despite all the controversy, he would make HIVE great again. Besides all the media attention, all the billionaires would buy up tons of HIVE, stake it and downvote him into oblivion (sad), and we'd enjoy $100 - $500 HIVE prices in the meantime!

Greetings everyone.
I believe that good content attracts people.
i don't wish for anyone in particular to follow me but instead i want to work on myself, my writing abilities, my interactions with fellow hivers, so people would feel naturally happy to see my content and follow me.

When people feels happy to see your content, they leave reasonable comments for you but when they just follow you for following sake, they won't leave a comment on any of your post

Honestly, tough choice. Once back in the day I would love some big accounts to follow me but I don't have the same attidue anymore creating content. I'm very happy when I saw @empoderat vote one of my posts with his voter last week though. So I'd probably pick that account @empo.voter :)

This was probably the hardest question so far haha.

Not really a followers person so every follower I get kind of feels as nice as any of them but I guess who would not be happy, if any of the big names should become a follower of them.
