Many people ask what needs to be done to achieve success on Hive. This is something that makes sense since it is a blockchain of opportunity. In other words, we are dealing with life changing stuff if one is committed.
Here is where the process starts. Those fully dedicated to Hive are able to take advantage of what is offered. In fact, it takes a certain level of passion to truly push through to the levels many are seeking.
One thing the Bitcoin Maximalists got right is they are a dedicated bunch. Many question the intelligence of believing there is only going to be one major currency in the future. However, we cannot doubt their view of what they are involved in.
To many on Hive, we do not doubt the existence of other projects and their potential for success. Nobody in their right mind believes that Bitcoin is going to zero. The same is true for Ethereum. There is too much taking place around it to ensure that.
Nevertheless, we need to bring the same mentality to Hive.

Make It Your Mission
This seems like an over-the-top statement but it is really at the core of what we are talking about. Many feel that Hive is a place to drop in periodically. While that is a viable approach, it is not going to lead to success.
What separates Elon Musk from most people? Certainly he is a divisive individual who rightfully draws his share of critics. That said, we cannot deny what the guy stands for.
He is very open about his commitment to helping the world transition to renewable energy. This is one of his main missions. It is also backed up with the effort and money to achieve that end. He literally is willing to risk it all on achieving that end.
In a number of interviews he talks about working 100 hours per week. This might be excessive to most yet that is what is required.
Is that was is needed to be a success on Hive? Not necessarily. The bar of what Hive is trying to achieve is a bit lower than what Musk is targeting. Nonetheless, there is a lesson in all of this.
Most Are Busy
People love excuses. Sadly, this is the major obstacle on their path to success.
Many feel they do not have time for Hive. After all, there is work, family, recreation time, and all sorts of other things that require attention. Those are all worthwhile pursuits. Yet none will lead to major success on Hive.
Life is about priorities. We can point to a number of people on Hive who are fully committed while also spending a number of hours each day to helping things along. They have the same responsibilities as everyone else. The difference is that, somehow, they manage to find the time.
We have people with new-born children. Others are in the process of moving. There is one who has a special needs child. Most have full time jobs. Others are participating and growing holdings while living in impoverished situations.
The list goes on.
To me, what separates them from the majority is they made Hive a commitment. They understand being part of something that is being built. Does that mean there is a guarantee of success? Of course not. That does not exist in life.
Nevertheless, when a large number of people are showing up each day with a similar goal in mind, the chance of success is greatly increased.
Life Changing Money
Hive can offer life changing money. We are already seeing it happening in some people's lives.
This is a magical opportunity for people. When the pathway to altering one's financial future at one's feet, it is best to pick that up and run with it. Our society still revolves around money. Not having it can really cause problems in people's lives.
Of course, the term "life changing money" will vary. A lot is going to depend upon where one is located. That concept is vastly different in San Francisco compared to Nigeria. Yet it exists for both areas. The former simply has a higher bar to attain.
Being a blockchain of opportunity, the avenues people can pursue is only growing. With each new application, there is a increased chance of success. It is also another area to participate.
We also have to make it clear that nothing is simply going to be handed to people. It is not an easy path. Sure, it is not as hard as being out in the sun digging holes for 10 hours. However, effort, dedication, and consistency are required.
This is where many end up falling short. Anyone who is here more than a year knows of many weere active and no longer are. What do you think is happening to their accounts?
A big part of Hive is still the social aspect. It is something that separates Hive from much of what is out there. It also allows for the community to form bonds that normally would not exist.
For that reason, it requires people who are willing to make this their mission. Those who show up daily, participate, and help others along are the ones who end up making an impact. It really is that simple.
So what are your thoughts? Do you see the life changing potential? Are you going for it?

I guess we should be supporting the hardcore Hivians who believe in this Hive ecosystem and stand by it in hard times.
Since I created this account on Hive, I don't remember that I have missed even a single day posting.
Irrespective of the fact the rewards I recieve are sometimes low but even as little as one Hive a day matters.
And I am happy to be on that track.
We need a bunch of hardcore users who stand by Hive.

I was chatting with @zakludick yesterday about this, I am yet to onboard a friend that will see the potential here and put in consistent effort and even get busier than myself.
Perhaps and asking too much of them but considering how I started, it was self-taught, I created my account in September 2018, it took me until February the following year to figure out I was not including tags in my post that was why I couldn't publish my post. I eventually figured it out lol, with the help of a YouTube video and since then I have been unstoppable.
The point is friends we onboard now have the privilege of being guided and still choose to show up once in a blue moon with the hope of earning some $...
Nothing is handed out freely out there and not here either!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Your dedication to what you believed in is admirable, it takes someone that truly saw hive potential not to have given up, and look at how far you have come today.
When I just got here, I knew nothing at all about crypto or how the block chain work. I did a whole lot of deep dive on so many account before I could find my way.
Lol Hive is one big nation on its own, we virtually travel within it and meeting different people every now and then, the learning never stops, even in my fourth year am still learning and its been fun.
No single moment of regret!
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is right , the learning continue and that is what make hive fun and interesting.
There is no doubt that Hive still lacks ease of use. It is rather advanced especially if someone doesnt understand cryptocurrency.
So you are not alone. Few see the potential. Those that do, a new world opens up to them.

Don't forget those things called Resource Credits. For people making the move from FB, it's an alien concept to them.
Everything we do on Hive has a cost, and Resource Credits are the underlying units of that cost. It's one reason we accumulate Hive Power: to overcome that cost. Transactions are feeless as they occur because they are prepaid with Resource Credits accumulated earlier by the rest of us as a whole.

Be careful to avoid certain tags as you post to LeoFinance. It's been known to eat posts if it encounters them. One such tag is Actifit; but there may be others. I found this out the hard way.

Thanks Actifit posts shouldn't be on Leofinance in the first place unless it is a content about its DeFi integration.
If we stick to appropriate tags for each community it shouldn't be a problem for us.

I've written out my long-term BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) for HIVE. I'm still fine tuning the spreadsheet, but right now, it's at 170K HP by December 2026.
Still got a long way to go, but my plan is to work at it every day.
Been grinding here since Apr 2019.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It is terrific to have such a big goal like that and when you break it down, that makes it seem more manageable.
That will require a great deal of effort but keep in mind the compounding properties of Hive. Plus if HP is your focus, getting active where rewards come from other tokens can help you on your journey. That can be swapped for HP over time to increase your holdings.
At present I see HP is paying out over 3% in inflation alone. That helps some especially as the account gets bigger.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Excuses are killers of dreams and delayers of success. I've had folks who I've had to beg to be active on Hive and it began to feel like i was troubling them. Hive creates opportunities for every one of it users to do well in life and I wish many of these people I told saw Hive in the same lens as me.
Begging people to be on Hive for their own good?
Seems a bit of a challenge. If you have to beg them, they obviously do not see the potential.
Of course, you do and that is all that matters.

I have referred a lot of accounts to HIVE and yet only a small percentage of those accounts does actively post there.
I encouraged my wife a year ago to make an account and she had so much work to do at that time that she did not want to put in the effort for a "few extra bucks". I totally get that. Probably life changing money in Austria is as high of a bar like in San Francisco. Yet my live has taken a turn and I am dedicating a lot of my time to grow on HIVE. I am a long term person and the 20% APR on HBD looks very promising to me. So I will try to build my HP and HBD to a level that it at least can sustain my every day needs. I strongly believe in this project, and I love the social aspect as well.
If it does not succeed, well at least I had a better time than posting on facebook or instagram.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
A few bucks can compound in so many different ways on Hive.
Just the price of HIVE today, a few bucks might be a 20 spot in a few years.
Lot of ways we can arrive at the end of higher multiples.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, i see the same. People just post occasionally and rarely interact and probably say Hive doesn't work.
I wish the user experience was easier to digest, if people could use hive like facebook or twitter and would not feel the clunky blockchaininess of things it would probably be easier.
Yeah, the onboarding part and the blockchain side of it is probably the part people are afraid of. Especially if you never did anything in the crypto area. In my family there is no one who is involved in crypto even I talked a lot about it.
One of the most important success tips you will get in any situation is Networking is key. We are building a Social Economic Community and the more people who feel successful the better all will do.
Not only should people focus on building their stake if they want to be successful, they should build a network and help others to feel success as well. Not from an altruistic or socialistic point of view, but rather from a network building point of view
Corporations understand that human psychology is involved in everything that we do. If you want to improve your success help build up others as well. The proof is in the older, established accounts who after years have built "Hive Wealth" and a large network of people who know their names and are interested in what they have to say.
At a minimum, I suggest 1 post, and 10 comments a day on "other people's posts" to get started and build a base.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You are absolutely right, I actually value human relationship over monetary value, build strong relationship and I believe the opportunities and even money will follow instead of trying to do it the other way round putting money chasing ahead of everything with no result in the end.
Networking? Yes!

The human engagement and interaction, in a community driven economy, means that it has monetary value. That is the point she is making.

Here we need to return to the topic of creating some kind. written rules of the Hive, which will be clear to everyone, but, and put a burden on the whales in their implementation, otherwise, it will disappoint novice bloggers.

Well unwritten rules.
The best way is through incentivizing. There is the upvote and they work just as well on comments.
If people are upvoting comments, those making them should notice.
It would further motivate them to make more.
Of course, as you state elsewhere, the wow. nice. good. great post. do not get it done.
But we have to start somewhere.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
To be honest, before my arrival in leofinance, except for the remark from acidyo, who said that I do not benefit Uhl because I do not write comments, as a result of which he unsubscribed from my blog, which, at that time, was very offensive for me, I did not knew about the requirement to write comments. I lived with the idea that original content is what should benefit Ul, so it was in STEEM and I did not meet other recommendations for the development of the blog. Yes, I tried to argue with him, but to no avail. I am one of those who highly recommends the creation of written rules, sometimes, people are immersed in work and the whole world around them ceases to exist. it's just that they don't know. what's going on outside of their blog, apart from curation.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That of course is his view (one that many hold). Others will upvote regardless of whether the person comments.
So there is the dynamic that spans the spectrum. I believe commenting not only helps the upvotes but also gets one more followers, which can help the upvotes.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is just an example of what is very important, the most complete information about what helps to develop a blog, and what can slow it down. It is very important to have patience and explain to people how to behave, what you are doing, hats off. I began to delve into many nuances quite recently, when I began to read other people's posts not selectively, but all in a row, I began to read a lot.
Yes, unfortunately, paying attention to leofinance, I lost time to read posts on other topics, but, in leofinance, I had a big gap. Apparently, it is very useful for beginners to dedicate a couple of weeks of reading only leofinance.

You know, this is the edge of the mentality, which is very difficult to bend, adjust to the system in a short time, this also needs to be understood. sometimes it seems that with the interlocutor, I live on different planets.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
For this I'll say both true, and false. Of course putting in time and dedication is important. That applies to basically anything anyone wants to see success in.
I remember back when I started up here the idea of missing a day was absurd. Everything (like everywhere else on the internet) was moving so fast and with that comes this fear of becoming irrelevant. It's irrational but exists within the minds of nearly all content creators, anywhere. Youtuber takes a day off for instance. Next post they're apologizing. This mentality leads to burnout in many.
Now if you look at my history here, I've come and gone several times. First time I left (reluctantly and under a tremendous amount of stress) I thought it was game over for me but finally got the courage to come back thinking I'd be starting from scratch. People welcomed me back with open arms; picked up right where I left off. That's happened numerous times over the years. So I don't have that irrational fear of failure. I don't feel tied down. And most of all I'm not penalized for leaving. That flexibility is important. The loyalty still remains while I'm gone. It can be found in my following and community.
I haven't been posting for quite some time now, again. That doesn't make me feel like a failure. Just not in the mood. And nobody hates me for it. If it was the other way around and I didn't feel this sense of freedom and folks turned their back on me for having a life outside this box I want to live from time to time, I would have labelled this place a cult and been gone years ago.
One bit of advice I'd offer noobs here though is this simple fact:
You do not require the approval of everyone in order to be successful here.
... or anywhere.
That is true although I would say that you were able to take those steps back because of the social capital you built up over the years you were active. It was not as if you were not seen through your efforts early on.
If you did not do that, I would surmise starting over is tough. Many show up repeatedly here without having banked what you did in terms of community involvement. Sadly, from what I observed, their results arent much better the second or third time through unless they do put forth the effort.
Thanks for expanding the conversation with your personal experience.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I've seen that was well. Oftentimes those who were attracted to that classic line, "Post content = get paid" nonsense show up, post, then wait for the magical cryptofairy to come sprinkle tokens all over the place. Things don't go well because nobody knows they exist, so they leave. Rinse and repeat. Take the same approach again, and get the same results. It just doesn't work like that, never has, and I hate that line now after observing that concept trick so many into thinking it's a free lunch and meant to be easy. Once they realize that's not the case, frustration sets in. They thought the burger actually looked like the one in the picture.
Had no clue they were sent the wrong picture.
Focusing only on their product and nothing else (like finding ways to attract people to that product). All they had to do was spend a few minutes focusing on others, and of course maybe read the advice column that springs up all over the platform, several times per week, from several different sources, seemingly at random, because apparently many people enjoy helping, and always have, for six years.
I've lost count now of how many people I've personally witnessed take the advice, stick with it even when times were tough, several months of $2 posts and now today they're trending with actual signs of life under their work as well. They simply took the time to focus on growing an actual organic support base rather than thinking something like that simply falls from the sky and lands on your lap.
Value is down so of course this is a great time for folks to build now, for later. People leave when the value drops but that's typically when I'll show up and post consistently.
Find success here and one needs to be prepared to take a lot of flak as well.
That's something that should be in the brochure. Some folks absolutely hate to see a genuine success story and refuse to believe they're simply being rewarded for what some thought was a job well done. That part is so depressing and at times made me feel like closing up shop for good. In a perfect world folks would celebrate success realizing those contributions all tie together making the place look shiny for everyone including the haters. That'll never be the case though.
Luckily these days with so many projects springing up the toxic personalities now have options and can migrate away, finding their success, elsewhere. So that's good, too.
Yes!!!! I think I need a mic to say it out loud that I am going for it so the world could hear me and watch me achieve that height of life changing potentials on Hive.
But I believe it doesn't just end there, the dedication, determination and love for the blockchain should be there to achieve that height.
No doubt about that, I'm a living testimony 😊 and I'm still on the process to more life changing moves on Hive and outside Hive. I wish to make a difference on Hive and that can't come by easily with just coming in once in a while to leave a post and get out again.

I see the Hive can change the life of many asians who put up the effort on the chain. Creating value and also bringing new investors has it's benefit for entire chain. I feel those who build games, or any form of projects are precious people as they have power to push the cashflow of the project. I am slowly learning about this from content creator standpoint and hopefully I may become example of "living off hive" if my efforts pay off.
It is not only Asia. I see so many from Africa and South America also sharing in it. Of course, the developed world is not left out. There are people in the US along with the UK who are also benefiting.
I agree the more that is built there, the greater the potential in the number of lives that can be changed. It is really a powerful incentive for developers if you think about it.

When I first joined LeoFinance, I had no idea about that LeoFinance had given me keys to open the lock of Hive of opportunities. Then one day an article popped up someone written about downloading Keys from Leo wallet, with some luck I was able to understand Hive Blockchain apps and how do they work.
Indeed, Hive is a land of opportunities, but how to get some or all it is up to the user's own will.
Engagement is the only thing that make someone stand out. If we understand it like a family and help each other grow, Hive is for us, if who has grudge and greed it is not for them.
It is all open, we can't hide what we are doing, our actions our attitude it all reflects on blockchain and it remains forever.

Ease of use is not our forte. Cryptocurrency in general is still very "techy" so that is a drawback. Hive takes it to another level sadly.
That said, those who do stick with it and commit to learning will find they are well served. Leofinance is a great platform which to gain knowledge while also starting the journey of filling one's wallet.

I want to add, people complain that they don't make enough money on Hive. On mainstream services it takes something like 10,000 views a month to make 1c on Hive you don't need to get that same level to make an income.
Stick to it and keep growing, produce new content and new ways of doing things. It takes me a few hrs to make one 5 min video. But I believe Hive is going up.
When I started it was under 10c and I wasted my time. Now (before crash) it was $1 had I been making the effort all those years ago I would have hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Stick with it, keep building.

The compounding effect on Hive is powerful. People need to realize exactly what you are saying. Compared to existing social media, it is much easier to stand out.
Plus, when you realize the economic opportunities from activity along with the DeFi capabilities, it really can help things to grow.

Absolutely agree 💯 percent with this post. Today I posted my 1014 strait day. I have talked about the time aspect many times before.
One thing I did was set my alarm clock 15 minutes earlier on week days. Do the math. 1 hour 15 minutes a week times 52. Extra time I spen on Hive.
My mobile phone. Finding time to Engagement. I sit here with family, relaxing Sunday. I am not on Facebook or waiting time playing games ( I do now and then). I am reading content. Commenting.

Most people who come to hive, are onboarded with a mindset that hive is way to earn, and that is true, but they are oblivious of the fact that there is a scale of preference and on the scale, value delivery, commitment and consistency are way above earning.
For some people like me, seeing the massive potential that hive has and the fact that lives are being changed not just in terms of money, these things force us to stay committed to the community. I love that feeling of being a key part of something big ... That's how I feel with Hive.
Thanks for this @taskmaster4450

It takes a while for that view to be seen, without a doubt. Few see it immediately and I am not sure if that is a flaw in how we present it or just the way things are.
However, when one sees the vast potential, they are hooked. There are some I encouraged (I didnt bring then here) who I know are not going anywhere. There commitment will rival anyone on here even if their wallets do not.
That said, I will bet their wallets will be much larger in the future.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I couldn't agree less with all you have said. Many people still do not take Hive serious, thereby taking it for granted or not even having time for it because to them, it seems Hive is slow and cannot meet their daily needs. There are people I have seen on this blockchain who are doing great and are committed to it, and yes, they get rewarded for it. It´s all a matter of how committed and dedicated you are to doing your best and challenging yourself to make it here too. At least, we all have "Priorities" and it wouldn´t be bad if Hive is part of what you have listed in your goals to work on.
It is a choice that each individual makes. How much is one willing to get involved and going to provide? This is what many miss.
Those who show themselves to be dedicated to Hive, in the long-run, will be rewarded. It takes time to get on the radar of others. For this reason, consistency is key.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Definitely! Being consistent is a great skill to being rewarded and enjoying your harvest.
It is how a following is built.
And on Hive a following as a total upvote value.
Grow that following and the upvotes will increase.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
More followers equals to more upvote 😊😊
It can. At least the percentages could work in your favor.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Reblogging posts is an underrated way of gaining followers. The combination of commenting and reblogging doesn't get the recognition it deserves. It's only now that I've been discovering this.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Probably, first of all, you need to be not only consistent, but a seeker of yourself inside the hive.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is why engagement comes into action here. 😉😉
Looks like the truth)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Time is money)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I think that it's not only a lack of confidence in Uhl, but also in general, a distrust of the crypt.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I'm definitely going for it. So much potential here.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Show up. Make comments. Engage. And look for opportunities to give to Hive.
You do that and you will be supported.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, more, and don't try to pull the whales by the tail, they don't like it)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
😅 Ok, not sure what that means but thanks for the heads up!
Check it out on a whale in the ocean, start pulling it, it will resist and. eventually, it will float away from you.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's like pulling a dog by its tail: dogs don't like that. In the case of a whale, that could be a death blow.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah, that could be painful. Glad I don't know whales!
This is not the act of a child, but of a husband!

We all have 24 hours a day, nothing less, no matter where you are.
Making good use of our time is a big deal, nevertheless, we always find excuses to make it seem like we are always busy to the point of doing nothing else than being busy. This is pure me rn and something I have come to realize about myself.
I can't say the same for everyone but it's becoming a norm these days to act busy, instead of doing something tangible. hard to admit but it's the truth, at least to some extent
This is very true and takes time, which most of us assumed we don't or might not have.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We all have other things we can be doing. There is no limit to options out there. This is only increasing.
However, at some point, we have to plant our flag and go for it. If the goal is to be a part of something that is growing and can make a difference, Hive is that.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I propose to chip in and buy the battleship Philadelphia, it looks like a revolution, we will need to fire a volley of guns, notify the whole world about this)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is true but, for the moment, we need to develop our troops.
The Hive army is still rather small relative to the forces that are out there. We need to secure our positions.

300 Spartans... forgot?!)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
They died in the end, didnt they?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Probably, what is important is not that they died, but how they did it, how it will happen with us).
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The 300 died, but they died on their own terms. At the moment, no one else was willing to be "That Guy" so they saw the need to be "That Guy." 300 of "That Guy".
That's one of the important lessons from Live Free or Die Hard (2006), too.

I don't know, I don't have twenty-four hours, sometimes I sleep)

Sleep is overrated, insomnia is the key hahaha 🤣

Coffee and cocaine are of great help.
Not necessarily in that order.

I’ll stick with coffee than ☕️ During the day 🥃 or rum 😎 in the evenings/ night.

Occasional lack of sleep is no big deal. Chronic lack of sleep is unhealthy and makes one unproductive over the long-term. If you're going to cut back on sleep, pick your spots.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Of course… every body needs time to recover on many levels, or it can get unhealthy. You are right.
But there is a time in a woman’s life that hormones are taking over. Lol 😋 insomnia is one of the main symptoms, but that will fade away again in a couple of yearssss hahahahaha 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

It truly is the case.Viewing the ecosystem as a way of telling personal stories and connecting with people are the ways of targets.
But,quite a diverse kinds of people who are there and wih their personal views,some view it as a temporary workplace and for some people its a gateway of interacting, learning. Many men,many minds.
So as for hive and the users.
Priorities are also different.
The wealth of knowledge and experience on here is amazing. It is something that is overlooked.
Leofinance always amazes me with the opportunities for learning it presents. People are also earning as they go along.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, I am amazed at the number of gaps in knowledge that I closed while in the Hive and Leofinance, but. there are still a lot of gaps, and this is very interesting)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Go beyond personal stories, come up with something original, unique, like a personal story)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What about anybody's left mind? Haha.

Unfortunately, for now, on Binance you can not make a bet close to zero)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know some people, who would still bet with zero, because they still think that cryptocurrency is a scam. I often see comments like this under cryptocurrency related advertisements on Facebook.
Some things can be done not out of conviction, but for the sake of a joke, which can be very profitable if the knife falls.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
FB is the scam, so FB is the joke (and a sad one at that).

Hive is the ultimate earner. I already make a few dollars a week. If I do some posts, I'm sure cam earn more. And I'm learning a lot on here, and you give a lot of tuition on explaining many things !
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
That is a key point. The knowledge that is conveyed on Hive is amazing. There are people who are smart about all kinds of things.
For that reason, we can benefit in so many ways.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes, before, they tried to prove to us. that the smartest is Kolobok, who ran away from his grandmother and from his grandfather and from a hare ....

Mehn! This is a wake up call to me and a good motivation to strive on..I think I came at the right time..
Nice piece 👍
I am glad you found it motivating and helpful. Leaving a comment is a great starting point.
Doing that on a daily basis is a great way to build a foundation.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You reminded me that I laid the foundation and started building a house, but I didn't finish it...I was already starting to forget it. lol.

Nothing depends on the time of arrival in the Hive, it all depends on the time that you can devote to the hive.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Good blog man. I totally agree with all this point. I gonna apply them in some aspects of my music and in my blogs too.
Just keep building your brand just like you would elsewhere.
Show the dedication to Hive and, over the long run, it will show it to you.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
There are days when it’s exhausting to keep up with my consistent number of posting and engaging, but when I think of how great Hive will be in the future and how glad I will be for putting this much effort into Hive, i just have to keep going.
Passion helps a lot in being consistent on Hive, passion can give you reason to always show up everyday 😊
Posted using LeoFinance Mobile
Dont I know it but then you just have to keep pushing.
I am sure Musk is tried and exhausted at times also. Having the no excuse mindset is vital.
Over the top? Maybe but it is really what is required to excel in any venture in life.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yeah life has taught me that, excuses get you no where
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Going for it 😁🤩
I just love the interaction through engaging. Reading posts from around the world. Getting to know people.
Building and growing my account for ALL.
There are many benefits, both personal and financial.
Obviously, at the end of the day, people want to fill their wallets and that makes sense. However, to do that, engagement is key.
And it is something people have to commit to. Making Hive what is can be is vital.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Committed myself fully to it. I do believe in it. On all levels, personal and financial.
I support people around me and engage with them to engage all together more. As it can be so much fun, we also learn from each other and they see it 😎
Yes, they need to believe in it and stay focussed. Some will and some won’t. But that’s life.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
As we saw, your wallet is showing the results of that.
I look forward to your ongoing posting on that topic and the advancement you are making. It is vital for people to understand the concept that you are living.

Will elaborate my power up post the 1st of June a bit.
I’m going still as fast if not faster at the moment 😉 I’m up already 200HP since the 1st May. And gathered 100Hive to power up 1 June already. More conversions on their way… but I have my rewards to 100% HP now, and I’m in the HPUM this months too.
Can’t wait to see the final numbers. Exciting 🤩
Also… my account is purely based on rewards. (No buying hive or hbd now)
Will keep posting and encouraging people 😁
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is excellent news. You are truly dong a remarkable job of showing others what is possible. Powering up HIVE is vital to not only the individual account but the entire ecosystem.
We need more people such as yourself looking to do similar things.
If smaller accounts grow their holdings 5x or 7x times, that would be a big help.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks a lot @taskmaster4450le 😁
Will spread the word and do my bit 🤓
It sure would help if more would do the same. Hope I can inspire more…

We will see how the end of my life looks. That part is still to be written.

We have life lessons from Spock and his kind), you can lean on this and go in the opposite direction, lol, then there is a chance that everything will be very good.

A lot of lessons from the dead, both positive and negative.
All in how we apply them to our lives before we join them in the great beyond.

Life changing money??
Wow, this sounds like an encouragement to me maybe if i put more effort, hive would help foot most bills.
Being a newbie can be really difficult tho😪
Yes and that is why you need to focus upon engagement first. People attribute it to building a business. You have to develop a "brand".
This comes from engaging and developing a following. Those that do that, over time, end up getting what they are after. It is a process.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I really appreciate your encouragement
Sure, am trying to find my way here and making friends
That will serve you well in my opinion. Become one who comments a ton on article on Leofinance and, within six months, you will stand out.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know little or nothing about crypto
So, how will i go about it?
We all start as newbies. None of us are born knowing anything about anything. So we learn from people at various stages of their journey on Hive. Even people who joined after us but found a way to pass us in earnings or followers can teach us things. Just as important, we can teach them some things they don't know.
In the end, we're all here to succeed, and we go about it in different ways.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is a huge encouragement to me
Thank you
I hope we all succeed here
I see the life changing potential yes. I also see the need to do something about the amount of people who just give up and do not show up.
Right now, as you may know - I have been challenged to onboard 22 new people for 2022 and get each one of them to 50HP. That's a 1100HP stake in the pie. Not massive to some but it is massive to ME.
I started this year on 313HP, I am now on 630HP personally and I will likely reach 1300HP and more, by the end of the year. To do this and at the same time, get my Hive Students to a collective 1100HP is actually pretty awesome.
It is the 16th of May and my students are 30,43% of the way to 1100HP collectively... with only 12 students... 3 of them are over 50HP and one of them will soon be. Some grow fast and some grow slow.
Beyond these students on my list, I have spoken to MANY people about Hive. Some have even signed up and then did not do anything.
So then it comes to a point of time. Hell yeah, I have made it my mission and BECAUSE of that, I have managed to do all.
I write a post a day, plus a Splinterlands stats post a day. So 14 posts a week. I have a full time job, 3 kids going to 3 different schools, a relationship and I am busy building a vegetable garden and do sustainable composting.
I do at least half the cooking and more than my share of housework.
Yet I post, do Splinterlands, Risingstar, teach people about Hive and coach them and have started dabbling in Listnerds as well!
And I do have something to say about the onboarding thing... I am seeing some organic growth... I am going to keep pushing to make Hive a relevant social media and blogging platform for our area!
Cheers!
You are really pushing it.
Great job
I also have just around 20 trainees. If you have them are not active right now.
I plan to bring in more and then work at educating them to be active.
Plus.. I am Dr and a musician. That's a lot already.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Great job! Where are you from?
The next point is when you hit critical mass and there is organic growth!
Nigeria!
Yeah.. thats the moment we are waiting for.
I see quite a few people from Nigeria. Cheers!
Yes. We do have some reps.
But a few more waste precious time on other web2 and I wish they could catch the vibes of hive.
Like you rightly said:@taskmaster4450 This is snother very helpful and encouraging article both to newbies and those who have been around for years in the blockchain. It shows that there is a big chance of success for everyone who is on and intends to join the Hive Community.
This is what I've made up my mind to do, to put my effort, dedication and consistency into Hive.
Hive is not just about making great posts but about building relationships, about learning. Being here for about 2 months had taught me that success is achieved when you're making others succeed. This is the focal point of it all. Thank you so much for sharing this means a whole lot to me and others.
"Help me to help you" -- this is more powerful than it sounds.
Self-interest is vital if we are to achieve anything, and self-interest directed at helping others succeed may be the most powerful incentive of all for each of us to succeed.

I am almost 2 years on Hive.
At the beginning, I was not understanding something's on Hive but without give up I started to research and talked with some Hive users from my country and I started to understand things.
Previously, I was not spending much time on Hive because the initial times are hard times, but now I understand if we continue to post good content and interact with some people, we grow our chances on Hive.
However, I am trying to have 15/30 minutes per day to interact with the Hive community.I am one of that peoples that says don't have enough time because having a full time job, family time, sport life and time to develop @hiveland.dapp not much time left.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I can attest. The more active I've been the better I've been doing. Still a super long way to go though. It seems like the real way to make it here is to create a project of your own that moves the ball forward.

. Keep up the fantastic work
This is what it takes to actually succeed in whatever we are in, when others makes excuses over their development, growth, commitment. All we have to do is keep our passion burning and try to achieve what we want too, nobody said is ever going to be easy but with determination and never giving up we can do it
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Aye aye to this! Commitment, setting goals and making good at it each and every day. Just like what we often hear, just keep showing up no matter what.

Keep showing up don't stop engaging in making an impact felt by at least one person.

My immediate target is 500 HP. Next will be 1,000 until I reach that 5,000 mark. I just don't know how long will it take, but for sure as long as I am still alive I will just do my regular activity on Hive to achieve that number.

Like we hear of the water- diamod paradox..A similar phenomenon is happening on hive. Too much potential and opportunity is being thrown at people. And the fact that they are seeing it fly by all the time they have become to comftable. The sad reality is that the day whats being built here explodes thats when people will want to take seriously
