Thank you for sharing this, and for the helpful links as well.

I have a difficulty sticking with anything that doesn't yield instant results- which wouldn't work well here. Discouragement has definitely started to set in!

Some of the questions I face are:
Will my comment be good enough? What if it sounds too stupid?

Should I post about this? What if nobody finds it interesting?

It has been entertaining seeing the variety of things on HIVE, and watching other people engage - perhaps I'll learn from that.

I have looked at other options of money making online - and you are right- there are no shortcuts! All the real deals require time, consistency, hard work. I think Hive is the most entertaining one I have encountered so far!

I'll keep your tips in mind. Cheers!
