Ears on the ground and listen to what's coming... Listen to the signs... Today, I didn't have a clear idea of what to write, so I went to reply to some comments and to check some blog posts from my fellow Hivians... As usual, that worked out and here we are with the topic that is a combination of one specific comment, and one of the post ideas that I have stored in my phone's notes for these days... Two things were pointed out in the same direction... If you ask me, that's a sign to write/talk about it...

Firstly, I want to thank @stresskiller for his comment on my #HivePUD post, which was a trigger idea for this one... Btw. When you see that big Ecency banner that your post is supported by Ecency, don't forget to check out the comment UNDER that banner... and of course, to reply to it! Usually, it's not a generic comment, but a genuine comment from a curator!
Secondly, I have the note/title on my phone that said: "Relax, Have Fun!" Why's that? This idea is inspired (not sure if I can say it like that) by very common comments that I can hear, during the #HHHLive shows, or in different Discord servers about HIVE... It usually says something like this:
What do I have to do on HIVE to get more upvotes?
Why does nobody upvote my posts?
How can I attract big curation projects to support my content?
Do I have to reply to the comments on my post?
etc.
I mean, they are questions like any other... They may look as crucial for your existence, but... Did you ask Mark Zuckerberg what you have to do with your FB or IG account? I suppose not... 😃
On the other side, the blogging part of the HIVE ecosystem is a social media platform, and the main emphasis is on the COMMUNITY... NONE of those questions involve community at all! The growth without the community is almost impossible, and focusing only on YOURSELF will not lead you too far...
Instead of replying to those questions, I try to "redirect" and change the mindset of the person who asks them in a more important direction... I have probably mentioned that many times (especially recently), but HIVE isn't as complicated as it looks like...
It's always the same thing... Instead of focusing on what you can't control (upvotes by others), focus on what you can control (quality of content, interaction, engagement)! And to be honest, I make this mistake many times! Keeping my focus on things out of my control...
What do you do on social media networks? You create content that you would like to be seen by others, which brings value to others... You check other content that is from your interests, from your "niche"... You are fine with spending time on that because you LIKE IT! It's not your WORK, it's your PLEASURE...
Well, why not do the same on HIVE? Why not focus your attention on the direction of having more FUN and enjoying great company? I think @godfish asked our guest in the #HHHLive show, @borniet, a question like this: "Why did you stick and stay on HIVE? Compared with all others that left..." I suppose that the answer is so simple and in front of our eyes... Those who stayed found a great company, a community, which made them stick around and have FUN! That's way more powerful and longer-lasting than any other "money" incentive...
So, what would I recommend to new Hivians? Share content that you like, find the right community where your interests are, and enjoy the company of great people here! The rest will come... Relax and have fun!
Let's see the WorkerBee Pool numbers for this week...
This week, we have mined 85 BEE tokens in total!!! 8 tokens less than last time!
We got a new delegator this week! Welcome, @risingstargame! Also, we got new delegations from old members! Thanks guys! Appreciate your support!
This POOL doesn't have fees, and you get up to 20% MORE by delegating to it!
What about the bonus tokens?
You know that I like to give away bonus tokens that you can use, or those that keep their value even in bad market conditions... After last week's "gaming token", it's time to give away some other gaming tokens! This time, it will be the SPS tokens from the most successful game on the Hive blockchain, Splinterlands! The token itself had a nice ride at the beginning of April, and now it's consolidating about 1c... Will it go up, or will it go down? I can't tell you... But, I can tell you that you can buy some stuff with it in the game, or stake it, or just sell it on the markets if you are not a player...
There will be distributed 170 SPS tokens to the delegators of the pool as a bonus reward today!
As always, in the end, let's give the exact numbers for this week... 85 BEE tokens and 170 SPS tokens will be distributed as a bonus... The APR (without the bonus) was 6.292%, and when we added the bonus, it went up to 7.531%!
I have calculated the ROI approximately with medium prices for all tokens when creating this post... So, those numbers are valid if you bought WB and sold BEE tokens at the middle HiveEngine price...
Do you want to sponsor the PH-Pool with your tokens, receive a short SPONSORED segment in this post, and raise awareness about your front-end or dApp? Please let me know in the comment section, or contact me through Discord or Twitter, and we will find the best solution for both parties...
If you want to join the WorkerBee PH-Pool, the only thing that you have to do is to STAKE tokens to YOUR account and DELEGATE your staked WORKERBEE tokens to THIS account (@ph1102)! Every week, you will get your portion of mined BEE tokens and BONUS rewards!
.:. DO NOT STAKE TOKENS TO MY ACCOUNT!!! Just DELEGATE! .:.
All payments will be made after publishing this post...
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comment section!
