The Positive Consequences Of Growth

Let me tell you something you already know, but growth is fun. It's often a tedious task as it involves many different factors. You need to produce content, receive upvotes and wait for the payout before you can do something with those juicy tokens. Power up, cash out, trade for other tokens or whatever. The tokens are yours and you can do whatever you want with them once they've found their way to your wallet. We also know that *tokens* greatly increase influence, which is basically why people power up or invest FIAT. The more power you have, the more you will get. As long as you are using your power in a somewhat decent way. You have probably read a handful of posts giving you certain tips or "methods" to produce good, quality content and what you can do to become successful on Hive, LEO or any other Hive community. Many of them are really, really good and inspiring and some of them might actually be those "golden nugget" articles that you are desperate for. I have been there myself as well. I have been on both sides of that fence a few times during the years I've been here. Something not many of you might now though, due to the fact that many *(most?)* of you have "climbed the ladders" during your adventure, is that I truly **love** the process of going from **nothing** to **something**. The "zero to hero"-type of things are extremely fun and rewarding, even for me who's been on Hive for half a decade already. I have done all the steps previously too. I have worked myself up the ladder, and even though I would obviously love to sit on a fat juicy stack of a million tokens, it's an amazing experience and thrilling ride to go from nothing to something. It takes as much for me, as for anyone else to "make it" on Hive. I don't have "that much" of an advantage compared to newcomers, even though most of the newcomers might think so. One of the first things that people mentions as being "unfair" is how tokens are distributed when it comes to people being rewarded. Some authors are "making bank" on each and every post they make while others, especially newcomers struggles to make only a fraction of that. Sure, I totally get the point and I can agree with that as well. **Some** of that is true, to some extent, but most of it is actually very untrue. You don't know what they have done in the past. You don't know how much they've struggled during the time they've been here. You don't know how much time they've spent being active and building their brand. Also, something some people seems to miss entirely is that power attracts power, so while user A has been powering up everything they've ever earned, user B has cashed out. - It wouldn't be fair if user B was the one who received most rewards, right? You can't expect hundreds of tokens (dollars) for the first ever article you publish. You can't expect to get thousands of followers for something like that either. It takes time. The more time you spend being active, the better the results will be. At least 9 out of 10 times. The grind is real. --- ![leofinanceontwitter.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXZzUDUXzpRqbbQz1uZQHfKBmmCs1bLEpP3DsBoshbNqm/leofinance-on-twitter.png) *[Tweet](https://twitter.com/hitmeasap/status/1490678398259277833)* --- This is the result of **one** tweet. 321 impressions, which meanns the times the Tweet was seen on Twitter. Total number of times a user has interacted with the Tweet was 39. This includes all clicks anywhere on the Tweet (including hashtags, links, avatar, username, and Tweet expansion), retweets, replies, follows, and likes. So, it's difficult to know if- or how many times someone actually came to [LeoFinance](https://leofinance.io/) due to that Tweet judging by those results. However, looking at simpleanalytics, there seem to be **zero** people. That is obviously a bit unfortunate, as I would love to push people towards LeoFinance with anything I do, but the **best** part of this is actually the **positive** vibe it gave me. A simple tweet and a handful of people liked- and shared it with others. That is how something eventually goes viral. It starts with **one** person making a tweet and **others** taking action. The same process goes for growth as well. You start at- or close to zero. You have nothing in your wallet. For each upvote you get on your content, you'll get **something** upon payout, *(if the rewards aren't taken away with downvotes)* and upon that payout, you have a decision. You either power up and keep it, or you don't. Each token, regardless of the amount, will get you a tiny bit stronger. One foot after the other and suddenly your own upvotes hold some value and you start to earn curation rewards. - It's almost immediate growth, even though it's **tiny**. --- ![leoisfun.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYzHS94zXp73Gnb222jNtBtgN9ykCpqSWWNSv1Mukxdn2/leoisfun.png) *A Tiny Bit Of LEO* --- I told people a couple of weeks back that I would buy LEO for whatever HBD I earned, and I have been doing so. I haven't been "that active" though, so I haven't pulled in any major numbers at all, but I am enjoying the slow and steady pace, because it builds up eventually. Over time. Buying LEO for HBD also gives me the "double action" in the sense that I grow both Hive and LEO simultaneously. The process is easy and straight forward. It takes a long time, but it's **fun** to see **something** happen. I can enjoy ~10 LEO for the price of ~1.5 Hive at this point and with prices like that, it's a bargain. I truly believe we will see LEO at $1 in a few months and we all know the potential of LEO.. The only thing I would want to change right now, is the amount of posts I produce. I want to be more active so I can "speed up" the process even further, but as long as I'm in "the green", I'm enjoying the ride. It's also extremely fun to have the chance to "double my size", while I am just a small fish/lion. It's obviously a lot easier to double 700 compared to 7000 or 70000. Oh well, I wish that some things were different, but I also know that I am the difference that is needed.
