Long post but contains a whole lot of truth. I spoke to Hive account@belemo and told him i needed mentoring on how to make it on hive. He told me to try to comment everyday at least ten comments a day. At first it was so hard to get ten comments a day . Gradually it got to 10. Now i have to power up so i could even comment . For the past 3 days i think i have made up to 20 comments per day. I was tempted to look at your comment section because i joined the engagement league and i counted your comments for yesterday. I think it was 100. I just concluded that i was going to engage more. I love the healthy competition too.
On a final note, i think people should not under rate the power of community participation if you are not established at this early stage.
