I've said it multiple times last week but I'll say it once again - at Leo, I feel at home. Every post I read here has something in it that I can relate to, unlike HIVE where only a handful of posts are about finances (at least on the trending and hot pages), therefore making it hard to engage meaningfully.
Why is it so important for me? Because I don't have to scroll through something that I don't care about in order to find what I was looking for. And I look for posts that could bring value to my life - those about online earning experiences, trading, promising coins, and others that could improve my financial situation.
In my opinion, Leo is the best community out there. It's not only because here I've earned more in a week than on HIVE in a year. No, that's not the reason, and I'm really grateful to start on HIVE where I could improve my skills for over a year. It's because this place is about becoming a financially independent lion. It's the reason that brings me here! I trust this place much more than other places I used to get information before.
Today I read an article written by about a thing called a honeymoon period on HIVE. You should read it in case you haven't done it yet. As you can guess by the name of it, it's when things are going really well for you. Your posts get on the trending page and you earn more than you've earned before. Many have experienced it on HIVE, Leo, or other places and it certainly feels wonderful!
But the most important lesson I got from the article was the enormous confidence boost that you get when your posts are seen and upvoted by many people across the blockchain (and maybe even further). It's not the money aspect that motivates you to stay and create more of that unique content you have in the back of your mind. It's about appreciation! Once you see that your creations are worth something, you feel that spark within, don't you?
I started this morning by creating more of the separators you see above and below. Maybe they'll be the reason someone remembers after a while and starts a conversation with his friend:
-Hey, do you remember the guy who used texts to separate the paragraphs on his posts?
-He was pretty good! Let's check what he's been up to!
*both go to upvote my posts
Or maybe it won't happen like that but one thing I know for sure - the universe is vast and anything can happen. If there can be multiple dimensions, wormholes, alternate universes, and other crazy stuff. Why can't I become a Leo Lion? In my opinion, it's just a matter of time. Just kidding. If I let the time pass and don't do anything, I won't get anywhere. It takes a lot of effort, consistency, and patience to reach success! It actually takes more than those three things I mentioned in the previous sentence but those are the most important ones!
The best way to learn something is by doing it and making mistakes. Just like you learned how to walk and talk. It takes a lot of time and failed attempts from which we can learn. The same goes for writing, blogging, singing, and any other thing. We become masters by doing it for long periods of time, and only some of us master it completely. I've been writing on HIVE for over a year now but I haven't been very consistent. Now that I've found LEO, I'm even impressing myself with how much time I spend here creating posts and engaging with others.
Thank you for reading and have a beautiful day ahead! If you're already in bed or heading there, have a good night's sleep in which you'll let your mind work out the stuff you need!
