RE: HIVE: No Votes, No Attention - Thinking of Giving up?

Consider using a little profanity in your content, this is not Facebook, you won't get banned and it adds spice.

Fuckin' amazing!

Sometimes, the truth can sting a little, and if people are feeling that, after reading this sober collection of 'truth bombs' they have a choice to make... Step up, if rewards are how you define success or F-off back to Facebook where you can virtue-signal yourself to 500 likes and feel really bloody special.

Thankfully I joined because I love reading 'raw content' from people from different cultures and lifestyles about the things that interest me, not just polished, copywritten stuff that I can find as and when needed elsewhere. I also joined because I had a 'hankering' (do people really use the word hankering???) to try my hand at writing and recording the things that interest me as I had always wanted a go at writing and wasn't getting any bloody younger!

I also joined because the idea of being rewarded for this reading and writing was a cool concept

Sadly my pesky real life, job and family and future plans I am studying for, do not allow me as much time as I would like. Letting go of the reward mentality is fine though if you enjoy this opportunity and the sense of community that goes alongside it, which thankfully, I do.

Entitlement mentality sucks in my opinion, and as we say in the 'frosty North', 'You get nowt for nowt', those who want slightly bigger or MUCH BIGGER rewards can get earn them, if they really want them, it's not rocket surgery, is it?

If my upcoming ventures go to plan and I am able to work from home, I may get to spend a lot of time here in a year or so, if I do, rewards will become more important to me, if I do you can guarantee I will put in the work necessary and let nothing stand in my way of incrementally climbing exponential growth.

Glad you didn't F-off after your $0.00's, (I remember mine well lol,) I have had a few belly laughs from your tales of Mort and co at KK and some of your dumbass courageous risks taken in the name of URBEX, thus we would never have gotten to meet in 'so-called' real life, gutted I didn't get more time to chat last time round.

What you have here, has been well earned Sir, long may it continue. 😎

Hope you and yours are doing fabulously well.
