Engagement: A Way to Drown Fear

avatar
(Edited)

With all that is happening around the markets (crypto, stock, commodities etc), there's no denying that everyone of us is affected one way or another. It is shocking enough to deal with the skyrocketing prices of things and then came the crash in the crypto and stock markets and everything seemed to have come altogether to test us out.

Can we survive all of these?

Of course we can. We did it in the past and we sure can today and tomorrow even. The question is, will you be amongst those who win?

It's often said, nothing is permanent and so as this circumstances. We will get to see the light of day as long as we hold on tight and try our best to not get affected too much. And one way to do that is by making ourselves busy (literally) and be productive.

I was reading some comments earlier today and I learned that one of the best ways some people employ to get their heads off the brutality of the market is getting engaged. No, not getting engaged to be married but upping their engagements or interactions here in the blockchain.

Although talking about how the markets are behaving cannot be avoided altogether and still often mentioned in the comments and on posts, the fact that we can find people who can put some sense into us helps in controlling the fear that whether we admit it or not, still keeps lurking everywhere around.

I must confess that some years back, I was one of those who got inactive when the market dwindled down and because of that, I missed a lot of opportunities then. I have learned my lesson from those years and I'm not going to repeat the same mistakes this time so I'm staying put. Just glad to be around here in the Hive blockchain at this point in time because it keeps me "stick" around and keep grinding.

The good thing about getting engaged is that we gain a whole lot more, not just in monetary aspects. And those who recognize the opportunity gets ahead and are rewarded enormously.

It's all about building relationships, growing network, learning and of course the earning follows.

Today, I woke up to another 100LEO on my wallet, thanks to Khal. His challenge is still up so it's one of the best ways to stay busy and productive. So if you are just peeking around not knowing how to start, I urge you to go to the comment boxes of the posts you read and start engaging. Leave meaningful comments or ask relevant questions and build from there.

The rewards are a bonus motivation actually. It's one thing I learned here to not focus mainly on the rewards or earnings but on creating or providing value first, enjoying the process of getting yourself out there and before you know it, the rewards have followed you.

Prior to this morning, I have no idea where or how to track how I'm doing in the LeoFinance community, but thanks to engaging, that's something I learned today. And that is by reading not only the reply to my own comments but also that of the others.

And so I say the comment section is one of the best places to find gems and information. As TM mentioned on his post "The Real Value of Leo Finance" that information is a valuable commodity and we sure want to have more of it because it's very much useful in our day-to-day endeavor.

If you want to track your engagement progress, you can do so through the following:

  • Hivestats
    Go all the way down to the Pending Payouts data and you can see your current week's engagement stats.

Just a reminder though, it's best not to go checking these stats every now and then, lol!

The reason engagement is being encouraged all throughout Hive is that it helps continually build the community and its growth means ours too, we all benefit from it not only today but in the long run.

Thank you and I look forward to learning and growing with you all. Let's bury our heads in a productive manner and not pay attention to the harshness of the markets.

What if I say it's engagement of marriage 😅 those who ate engaging well in the community are married to the fact that the price will smile St them soon so no time for dulling.

Engagement is so beneficial and in many ways, just this morning, I was laughing to a post and I was like "What would have been my facial expression if I had not read this post to leave a comment?" It was really fun.

Aside that, I get to learn new stuffs and earn even the most little from engaging... It's so encouraging and beneficial really.

By the way, I'm joining in the burying head on productive manner, no more time to think about the market now 😅

Hahaha, that's okay too, why not! LOL!

And it is very true, engaging is fun. More often we find ourselves giggling out of something we read. And we would have missed that fun if we didn't come around.

learn new stuffs and earn even the most little from engaging... It's so encouraging and beneficial really.

Very true. I can attest to that. It is where most things are discussed. And even better if we ask questions.

I'm joining in the burying head on productive manner, no more time to think about the market now 😅

Awesome! Let's do just that and have fun, lol! I've closed my market chart tabs on my browser so I'm safe too, haha!

Another stunning write. That's been how I took advantage of the bull market. I was here all throughout the bear when not a lot of people were actually believing or having faith in how far this place can go.

Yeah, it's just wise that we take good advantage of the Bear Market now by continuously engaging with other users and keep growing your account.

It's just a matter of time and those that stood at this time will be rejoicing later I'm very sure of it. So let's just get to the business of engaging and see how it goes at the end of the day.

Amazing writeup @ifarmgirl.

Yes, as some don’t have the time to invest like we do and move around everywhere. Posts like yours, that sums all up, do help in many ways 😎

Maybe or maybe not. I think I made less than last week on Leofinance. 😁 hivestats is comments from all platforms right? Do you know? I’m not sure about that…

Still I’m proud of it that I am here and can engage as much as I do, it is so much fun. Loads of great people and the information we can gather… just vast!

enjoying the process of getting yourself out there and before you know it, the rewards have followed you.

This is it for me, in almost every aspect particularly on Hive here, enjoy yourself being here, tap into whatever you can tap onto and the rewards if follow. You will be doing wrong coming here and focusing on a some hundreds of dollars for a few post.

And you are awesome :) We can't deny that the reward is one of the motivating factor here but then we realize that if it's the only thing that keeps us here then sooner or later, we'd lose interest. So it's important to enjoy what we do and have fun.

I've been seeing the poster "Came for crypto but stayed for the community" and it is very true for me.

Stay for the community yes absolutely! I will even go further in say stay for the freedom it offers, stay for its d3centralized nature, how about staying for its censorship resistance? And the rewards will follow!

Oh by the way thanks that am awesome, you are awesome too!

I don't think I've ever stopped in 4 years and I certainly have lived through ups and downs. Any low engagement from me is usually not due to hive price but to me being busy with surfing and mushrooming and all the other wierd shit I do 😄🌻💕🍄🐙

Upvoted on behalf of the VYB Curation Project. A good motivational piece CJ. I do hope people stick around through the more challenging cycles of crypto and look to the silver linings instead. Thank you for sharing your post in Dreemport once again. We love seeing you here 😍!PIZZA !ALIVE

Okay yeah!

Everything was crystal clear, honestly so many people are losing it though, a friend of mine who invested in the cryptoverse is depressed a little according to him he wanted to use the money to pay for something which sounds urgent but the dip weakened him!

It takes a person of courage and faith to ignore the rise and fall of hive or other cryptocurrency and focus on building himself more or even engaging in other things!

I appreciate this piece!

I agree with you 100%. Trying to be the "Lone Ranger" in these times can be quite intimidating. I believe there is a very good reason why they say "there is power in numbers"...and those numbers can be found in the community indeed!

I congratulate you for your publication, the truth is that it has helped me a lot. It is very encouraging and motivates me to put effort into one of the facets of this platform which is not my strong point. He encourages me to participate more.

Sometimes I feel like I'm going forward and then backward, but I think I can improve this delay by strengthening this aspect that you mention in your post. I did not know that tool you mention, but I will surely review it. Thank you very much for all the consensus concentrated in your publication. A big hello @ifarmgirl and I say goodbye because I have to go cook

I think these times are good oportunities to connect even deeper with the people on hive. Why should I stay away? I still get almost the same HIVE payout, as I did before it just makes me a little sad, that it seems SO many people come only for the money. But the true gems, those who come also for the community, these you can see now :-)
