Phone Time Made Productive

What consumes my time these days? ***Aside from, of course, work, my phone takes up my free time. I guess it's not surprising anymore. There is a difference though, as the times I use my phone for are not for useless purposes now, but for more productive ones.*** I have enjoyed my time in read.cash more, just doing my thing as usual. More focused on my own growth, and still interacting with other writers here. Mistakes were done, I could not take them back, but I know I learned from those mistakes. I have been engulfed in some negative emotions these past few days, but at least I don't let them get to me. Negativities come by oftentimes to add some colors in my life, so I won't take them seriously. *Had some issues for a bit, but I figured that's just how life goes. You gain some, you lose some.* This applies to people as well. This would be the last day I will let myself be bothered by these suffocating what ifs and decisions I may or may not regret doing. I now recognize *I am just a human and I am not aiming to be perfect*. At some point, I gotta re-calibrate my perspectives and focus on the good things while learning.

**Anyway, there is something in the homepage that made me smile. Look at this.**

I am happy to know that *Ms. Jonica has successfully created the community,* which she has been struggling to create for the past days, or weeks. I am personally aware that I may have missed a lot of prompts already, but as I said, I will somehow make a way to catch up with everything LOL. Glad that one of the rules in the community is *"No deadlines!"* . ****If you are also fond of participating of her weekly prompts, join it now!**** Just search **"PromptlyJonica"** in the communities, and join. I heard the latest prompt is about **Success**. *I have also shared previously how I aim to be one of the top-tippers in this platform. Just being the top 50 is enough.* I know for a fact that I am still far from that goal as I still don't earn big like the others. Thanks to my recent achievements, and the support of Rusty and the other fellow writers here, I got to improve so much in tipping this month, so here is my humble achievement.

*I am now in the top 95 tippers list.* For the last three months, I did not even reach top 200. Possibly, top 300. So seeing my name in this list made me happy, and somehow proud and thankful. I aim to get ten spots higher within this week, so I hope my articles would allow me to achieve it. Next time, I may even brag about having that diamond icon next to my username, soon! Claiming it in advance. [πŸ’Ž] I recently installed this app last Sunday, finally, after freeing some phone stage. The app is called **Lyka**, where I could *post to earn cents, and rate others to earn cents as well. I am not sure, but I heard it's only available in the Philippines.* Artists, and those who have great followings benefit the most, because of course, the more the engagement is, the more likes, *(that's converted to gems, and a gem is equal to 1 peso: Filipino fiat currency)*, so imagine getting a million likes for a single photo, one can be an easy millionare just because of Lyka. Well, as far as I know, this is not available for cash out, though. The gems can just be used to purchase from verious merchant partners of Lyka, starting from basic commodities and services, to gadgets, and even cars.

Of course, I won't be in the levels of influencers like **Ivana Alawi** who gets millions from this app, but it gives me some kind of satisfaction to know that I earn *(even just cents)* whenever I post. It's just like instagram, just a paid version, and the likes are just equal to gems. So it's not hard to understand. It makes me feel like being in a social site is not unproductive at all.

You may be wondering why I published something at this time. This is so not Ellehcim, as I always post every late night. Well, today is a holiday, so I ain't at work. This made it possible for me to mingle a lot more in *read* today, and even publish a blog in the middle of the day. I washed some undone laundry from the weekend, and I am planning to free up more space from my phone by deleting useless photos after this one. *Honestly, I am craving for some Takoyaki, and I apologize for being so random. LOL.* Moving on, there is also this one challenge I haven't tried yet. This *"Would You Rather"* challenge. Maybe later or tomorrow, I will take on this challenge, regardless of even this is not a trend anymore. It is another opportunity to share some things about myself again. Do you think so, too? **To make up for the randomness of my ramblings, here is an impromptu prose I wrote:** *It does not have to rain,* *To have my tears pour out pain.* *The sun's shining ever so bright;* *Though without you there's no lightβ€”* *Maybe the reason it's dark here.* *I'm accompanied by cigars and beer,* *And sad music* *Like a hopeless lunatic.* *Oh my, did I use a wrong word?* *My hand struck some chord,* *Followed by a melody;* *A familiar harmony* *About a certain somebody* *Who used to be with me.* *Now, it's started rainingβ€”* *And to the song about you, I continue humming.* **What do you think?** (Awkward smile). Anyway, I ain't broken-hearted or something. I just like to write some sad prose as a hobby. I would be happy if this could be some lame song lyrics. LOL. How did you spend your day today? Let's have some chat in the comment section. This is a blog of mine, you don't need to be so formal. Just be yourself, and share me some stuff you wanna exhale. I am here to *"listen"*. Hahaha! With this prose of mine, I say.. Until Next Time!
