I love The Secret. Hive is great but there is a lack of users for all the communities there are. It is hard to participate properly in more than a couple of communities. So you see people gravitate to post be members of communities that deliver votes, because no matter what people might say, many users are still here for the money.
Things should be fun, and it is about finding your level here that is still fun. Do too much you can get burn out. Try to participate in too many things and you end up being stretched and get no results anywhere!
That was one reason I liked HiQ magazine as we got to know different areas of Hive. There is no way we can know everything that is going on.
