The ability to earn has never been so easy as long as you give yourself a chance and remain busy. The likes of Hive with the various tribes offering the secondary tokens has transformed this place in a very short time frame. We are all lucky to have learnt exactly how and what makes HIVE tick as this place is not the easiest to learn and takes time to wrap your head around.
The blockchain is open 24/7, 365 days so there are no excuses and is unlike any other business as there is no closing times and down time. The only limitation is you and no one else so there are no excuses. Along the way you may learn something about yourself as family members think I spend too much time on here and myself quite the opposite.
Around 18 months ago I set myself a goal of staking 10K Leo for the very reason my vote would be worth 1 Leo and I could earn 5 Leo every single day and hand out 5 Leo just from curation alone. Having the ability to give and receive through your actions is what makes HIVE and the tribes unique in many ways. Over time this could become serious values you are literally handing out to people you have never met, but somehow know through your dealings with them.
The same applies to HIVE as every HIVE earned and staked will snowball thanks to the power of compounding and over time will turn out to be a substantial dollar value. I haven't really set any HIVE goals for the past year or so as growing as fast as you can is the only goal and that will never change. We are all reliant on others with our growth so how can you forecast where you will be in 12 months as you can hope, but this is purely speculative.
Just having the ability to genuinely do somehting you love should be reward in itself besides the $$$ you earn for doing just that. I suppose the rewards is what spurs you on to do even more and stay active no matter how tired you are. This is something I have battled over the last few weeks as never taking a break and letting up for 4 years sounds pure madness.
I find it strange now as the ability to earn is here even when you are offline as your stake generates APR whether it is HIVE POWER or HBD in savings. One can also add the autovote so you don't miss out on your favorite authors generating curation at the same time. The truth is though if you are online you are going to do more and earn more compared to someone sitting back taking the easy route.
The more crypto projects we get involved in the less time there is to go around and only means you are getting bigger each day. At some point there has to be a maximum of projects one can be involved with as they each consume time. HIVE is still my number one and will always be the number one as that is where most of my crypto value lies. When I say HIVE that includes all the tribes as they are the backbone of the entire eco system.
