Good Morning Noisecash. It's another day. And another journey to take. I'll be keeping an eye on your content. Have a good Thursday!

Make some progress every day. Don't end the day, lazy or not making the progress. I make sure to draw 7 or 8 doodles a day and post them one day at a time. Compounding effect here reduces my work daily. Sometimes planning in advance and spreading the work is much better.

So I have been looking at the stock portfolio. It's slow. It's painful. But it pays dividend and also one is bluechip stock so there is a growth. If you are not starting in mutual funds and stocks, you should. Crypto is not the only thing out there. Mutual funds and stocks have real world backing. Start investing. Start small.

Which communities on HIVE are worth posting to? I am currently only posting on Leofinance. I wonder if there are any other worth posting into. Do you have any suggestion for community on HIVE?

Have you ever thought to yourself why govt can't do this? why others cant do that? I think of this event as observers procrastination. Expecting other people to make changes in the world. Sometimes we have to only think of our own sphere of influence and world. Life is not easy, we have to sometimes stop passing the judgment.

I see a lot of posts on goals, priority and list. But where is the system? I think lack of system means you reaching goals becomes harder. Establish a system. System will take care of most of the routine and hard task in due time.

Personal experience. Overthinking increases sadness, anxiety and depression. What's the cure? Challenge your mind by taking small steps. Make it move ahead. Make it do things slowly. Once it gets momentum on small things. It start to run for more action. That's where the overthinking gets left behind. Behind it should be.

Everyone regrets not starting earlier when they realize there is success in being now. I didn't took action for the crypto earlier. I never joined article posting sites that reward in crypto. I learned late. Better late than never. Don't waste time stalling and staying inactive.

Just crossed 900. I am glad that people find value in my content. Without you even 9 was harder to achieve. I appreciate everyone for taking time to read my content. I hope that my words made some difference to you in some way. Thank you all for the support.

Good Night noisecash. Today was pretty much good day for work and social media. I hope your Thursday went well. It's time to take some rest. I'll be seeing your around in next few hours!

Good Morning noisecash. Hope your Friday is going good. I have been busy working for the last day of the week. I'll be around watching your content and posting randomly. See you around!

Do you know Overthinking is a process of creating problems that does not exist? Sometimes you have to just not think things. Just do what's allocated to you. Stop dreaming and too much thinking ahead in future.

What I have observed by looking at Successful People? They do the following. 1. Small Steps to clear one obstacle at a time. 2. Consistently do the small steps to move ahead of obstacles. 3. Form a system to move through obstacles consistently, in slow steady pace. 4. Then move to outsource or automate your hard work of the system.

People say "It can't be done". Find out why it can't be done. If you can do it what can't be done, then take steps for the same. If you can't do it, then let someone else do the honors. Don't overthink on things you can't do. Don't discourage those who can do what you can't.

If you never got infected by corona the Chinese virus. Consider yourself lucky. If you never got too much depressed to end your life, Consider yourself lucky. Since last year world is in various types of suffering. If you have roof over head, food to eat, money to survive. You are lucky.

How many of you have got the CUB tokens? Any idea on how to use the leodex interface to buy them with HIVE or HBD? Anyone have any direction and pointer would be good.

I think games like PUBG, Call of Duty league of legends, mobile legends which are popular in SEA nations need to start accepting Bitcoin Cash for the game items purchased inside. Or anything which is equal to USD. The reason being spending bitcoin and ETH is so much expensive it's not worth it. And in such case BCH can be a good option.

Why people are on twitter? If you like crypto I don't see any reason to be on twitter. Twitter only like left voices and their own tribe. Never spend time on social media that does not reward you back. One should be on HIVE, Uptrennd, STEEM, Noisecash, Readcash.

Always remember there are people who don't want you to succeed. Never share your goals and dreams with them. Life does not give you second chance. Always keep your dream to your own self.

Sometimes I wonder if not being rich overnight is a blessing? I mean if I wake up with 1 million in bank account. I'll go insane. It's like I skipped the steps to reach there. There is nothing positive you can think of in lottery.

Life has disappointments. Life has no meaning. Life is pain. That's depression in control. But I believe in Hustle and Optimism. I am not going without a fight. I'll see you around in next few hours. Good night!

Saturday is meant for the relaxation for me. I make sure to do some chores that I can't do in weekdays. I also take some sleep in the afternoon so that I can get proper rest too. How are you spending your Saturday?

Having people who are more solution focused always helps. People who follow trends and believe social media ends up as a conspiracy theorist. People who think of solution in chaos are the people you should be around. It always helps to be around them when your chances of help are low.

I am all for diversifying with coins and the social media sites that pay it. Having spread on other social media is always a good idea. So you have coin price diversification as well. I mean we can't use our other sites links here anymore. We can't talk about what we eat, and everyday morning and night with followers etc. What are we are left with now? Just BCH talk? Thank god I am diversifying on other sites too. You never know what may happen.

Uncertain things in life are inevitable. Like we had no option to earn crypto before. That changed. We were taking life for granted before this Chinese virus. That changed. We are still not sure about what may happen in near future. Uncertain things in life will always be there. It's our skills we have to improve to adapt to uncertain things in life.

Do you want to give back to the society? Instead of giving money, form a process and pay people in that process. If it's healthcare, it's better to pay to hospital directly to avoid abuse. This way you are generating value in some way. Giving charity or cash handing them often does not work well. It's hard to trust the charities and the people involved. Forming a process, being part of that process and ending things on right note helps.

Why You Should write 100 words a day? Struggling with motivation or procrastination? You should definitely read this: https://read.cash/@esmeesmith/100-words-21872e0c

They say you can't work and watch TV at the same time. I have been writing content while watching Netflix for years. Some of the time watching TV randomly in the background of head and writing is fun. I know you will get distracted but 10 min flow of work and then TV is possible. And when in serious flow of work, your mind will ignore the TV in background anyway. Have you tried it?

Even ElectronCash is crashing now with the wallet error. Very very disappointed in you BCH. You can't handle microtransaction. I get too many 0.000030 or even lower coins as tttip on my posts. Another of my wallet got locked. I just lost another 100 USD now. Extremely disappointed with BCH today.

Me struggling with Electron Cash consolidation. So my mistake was accumulating readcash and noisecash in same address. And not moving weekly balance to another address. If consolidating those micro amounts fails, I have total 300-400 total lost since January. BCH is the only currency where I lost this much money without anyone scamming me. I have no idea what god has in mind for me. Feels like punishment of hell or something.

I think I have to go heavy on leofinance and steemit content writing. I have to minimize the platforms which are more expensive. I have been pretty much damaged on the BCH part. It's getting waste of 4-5 months of effort chasing BCH and getting locked. I have to also write my fiction book. So time needs proper management. So a lot of things planned ahead. Sorry BCH you are now on backseat and now like ETH you too are low priority. Thanks for screwing me with wallet errors…

It seems I am not in Safe Zone, at risk. So anyone have any suggestions for me. I am going to be more active on readcash as my last article did well over there. Maybe someone from uptrennd or leofinance can take me in some writers tribe? I was thinking of Project HOPE on HIVE but they said they are not accepting new members. Hustle continues. God save us all.

Thanks to homopit's advice. Some transactions are pushing through the locked address. it's a pain considering there are more than 6K transactions that caused this. But it's going to some extent, it's slow process but will take a day for at this rate. Thank you homopit for your help and patience. Cheers!

Why the tutorials explaining how to recover the locked address BCH was not working? Ans: The reason was I had too many micro transactions with extreme low value. Imagine getting ttips of amount 0.0003 etc. It adds up to more dust and creates those issues. (Least technical way to explain this) I hope to ttip less creators with bigger amounts now so that it balances out. I can't help those who tttip me extreme low value 0.0001 but I can only fix my own flow. Learned something…

Netflix and Sherlock Homes Netflix has been butchering the sherlock homes for some times now. I noticed that female homes character was added and butchered the canon storyline. Now they have new show out there named "The irregulars" where they are butchering the mycroft, sherlock and even moriarty for the sake of mutant kids storyline. Why they are against sherlock homes storyline?

How many of you watched the movie - Tenet? I watched it yesterday. I think this time Christopher Nolan didn't created something blood rushing I assume. I mean not like inception, batman dark knight type. I kind of managed to connect the dots without watching those "explained" youtube vids. I think this one was a bit rushed movie to be honest. What do you think?

How to trigger Domino Effect in your life? There are ways to do that. Though depending on time and other variables it takes time. You write one article on one specific niche. Then you move onto regular writing niche writing. Each article each month or week, adds up. And at the end of the year you have enough content worth linking back to. If you want to trigger domino effect, you have to start small. And that small needs to have a goal. Direction specific small efforts build…

Before I go to sleep, here's some food for brain. What do you know about your skills? And what are your actual usable skills? This specific core value is called as "Circle of Competence". I learned about this today. I thought I should share this with you so that you can Wikipedia it and maybe teach me about it if you know more. Or maybe I write article about it? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_competence

Let's try to redefine quality and find a way out of this shall we? Quality is subjective, it's hard to measure especially across multi languages. So how do we go closer to quality? By forming community around our profiles. More engaging people in our posts, indication of content being some value, right? Likes, follows etc don't count much as they can be gamed artificially. But genuine engagement comes out of discussions, arguments, drama. Where to draw the line for excess…

I have noticed one thing about people who hustle. When they start to make some spending their mind be like is it necessary? The problem is not money but conditioned mind that stops us from spoiling ourselves. We are conditioned to be frugal which is not wrong. But at some point you have to let go and use money like strong cards. What is the point of hustle if you reach the goal and decide not to use the power? Sometimes you have to use it and sometimes you have to know…

I am sure you have heard of the 10,000 hours rule to be expert at something. But have you seen some people in school or workplace with you who never practiced? Like you meet them and they feel like pretty much trained in short time to expertise. This seems like an exception which builds some people purely out of raw intellect. Their brain catches up a process and easily replicate without having much practice. They acquire success quicker and also reach better heights.…

Interesting thing about loss in life is it is improving humans if they choose to. Some people break after losing something, some rebuild themselves. If you get rejected, your approach should be building yourself hard to resist. If you lose money or job, you have to find out ways to get it. If you lose someone, you have to find a way for new life. When you replace what you lost with something new, you choose to grow over. How about you? How do you handle loss?

Just discovered that I crossed 1K. I mean this has to be my 1st 1K of life on social media. Barring the "wow" folks, I think I have got few who like my content I suppose. I have lot of thoughts in mind to worth sharing. Not sure how much of those thoughts would engage people and make them think. Thank you for all those who found some value in my content.

Every morning I have too many thoughts and decisions. I navigate through them based on priority and what if analysis. I am currently working from home and tired of this Chinese virus and lockdowns. So when I find my morning chores and work mixed up, I choose order of execution. Always do things in order to reduce your tomorrows efforts. I hope your Tuesday is going well!

Have you noticed that in past our decisions outcome was chaotic. Like we rejecting or accepting something had no big impact on world. Since lockdown and pandemic, we rejecting something could mean bad day for someone. We not taking some action affects someones future. It seems like since pandemic, world has shrunk a bit in terms of outcome of decisions. It seems like the moving variables that could fill the gaps are vanished. Now we are connected with some level of variable…

Have you ever thought about going back in time and fixing your mistakes? In theory it sounds good. But you have to cut some slack for yourself. Why? Because sometimes our mind makes the most rational decisions we can think of. Going back in time does not fix your existing timelines either, it only makes tangent. Though other people can make fun of us for being dumb or stupid. But our mind took the most safe and the comfortable decision from our own context. This is one…

I learned about Power of Fear during the pandemic. I noticed that media was showing random numbers of cases on TV, paper, social media. People who were educated or overly-educated played the game of "oh look at numbers". Every day kids, adults played game of "let's be afraid and stay home due to numbers". Hospitals attributed every random case as Chinese virus infection. Doctors, isolation wards were charged 20x the cost than normal fees. In reality the people who survived…

Tracking Progress. It's my habit these days to document what I have done everyday. e.g. Everyday I write tasks that I have done. 1. Done office work from 9 to 10:30 2. Done chores 11 to 12 etc.. Then I post this anonymously in sites like tumblr and WordPress blogs. Noticed that I am not dreaming about "things to do". I am documenting things that I have done. This helps me positively and makes me think that I am making progress too. I don't know how I settled from "todo" and…

My observation for last few years. When "learn to code" trend was strong, it was because teachers, course creators used this trend to acquire new students and also tried to paint the sector more powerful than it was. Now a days "no-code" is being sold the same way and the cloud providers and the monthly subscription makers are using this trend to lock people in as a customer. A lot of times there are such trends which are not about future or your career, some business…

If you want a good sleep pattern. Make sure you listen or watch positive things. Things that worry you or stresses you only means more work for brain in sleep. Make a habit to feed the brain something positive before going to sleep.

Some thought to start your Wednesday morning with. Time is an interesting construct. When you are having fun & good times, then time kind of speeds up and ends quickly. When you are depressed or hurt, it would go so slow that days feel like weeks. When you are young it felt like moving slow, moves quick in mid age, no idea how it goes in old age. People who are bound by the duty and the money-time relationship, tend to have time moving too fast for them. If you are committed…

Why bad things happen to good people? My speculation is that good people tend to navigate the loss/win structure often. As in their pursuit of being humanitarian and good towards others. They tend to fall in decision matrix block where they have loss and other party win. This sort of action continues for long enough bad things happen, to good people. Though a lot more things may happen. But this is what I have observed so far. Hope your afternoon is going good.

Have you noticed that leaders who act like laid back, drunk and act like dictator tend to rub on their employees such that business also suffer? I have seen this behavior in many hotels, shops and the business. It's like your attitude reflects on people around you and if you are leading by example. The people also imitate the same in the same zone. There is a reason why they say you should set an example before people who you lead. Have you noticed this sort of behavior…

Does good karma means good outcome? Does bad karma means bad outcome? Not necessary. Take example of playing gambling games, if you win, if that money is used for something positive, a bad karma can be turned into good outcome. If marriage is done with good intention and later turned into bickering, financial extortion, that good karma ends up in bad outcome. Life is not black and white. And so does karma. A lot of variables play big role into it.

If you have moved on from unpleasant memories but they continue to come to you. What would you do? My current practice is to continue to create new content and new activity. This helps me build new memories and also makes me forget the unpleasant. This is how I have started to push depression away. So what works for you?

2 months with no rewards. So disabled the reward setting in Brave.

Positive Affirmations before Going to Sleep. "Everything is going to be alright". "I am not falling without a fight" "Be it any situation, it will turn out in my favor in some way" "I may not know but people like me and they care" "I'll wake up with positive vibes in the morning" Make sure you say positive things to your own self and then go to sleep. Good night!

Every morning I am proactive towards two things. 1. Prevent problem before they happen. 2. Put down domino for series of solutions that help me against potential obstacles. Both of them sort of serve the same purpose in a different way. Instead of being a problem solver, I prefer to stop them before they arrive. This can be pretty much exhaustive approach towards life. I do it because it keeps me busy and productive. How do you reduce your future burden? I hope you have a…

My current Crypto strategy Anything earned from social media, I can use it to buy top coins (BTC, ETH) Anything I get from the staking should be reinvested into other farm plans. Keep upvoting on steemit, HIVE to build the vote power. By the end of this year, spend some coins to fiat or buy something off online using crypto. What are you doing with your crypto? What's your strategy?

Uptrennd progress. Getting to next level slowly. I may have to start writing regularly. How are you doing in Uptrennd?

Corona the Chinese virus has messed up with my mind. I had dream yesterday that I am going for maths paper in University. After reaching the exam hall, the teacher says signals & systems exam begins. And that shock got me out of the dream. And it's getting close to a decade towards me completing my graduation. My mind is still in past to this much level. 😑 God save us all.

I have a bad feeling about this. In short: "Let the Witch Hunt Begin"

Do you obstruct your observation to match with social burdens & political correctness? I don't. I call spade a spade. I don't bow down to political correctness. I don't bow down to social justice warrior work. If it's crow, it is crow. No feeling involved. Nothing more. Nothing less. I call spade a spade.

Learning about NFTs through Patrick Collins FCC article. https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/how-to-make-an-nft-and-render-on-opensea-marketplace/

I totally get how the Noisecash wants to get rid of spam as there is money involved. My only thought about this is that what if this goes out of hand? People perform differently when handed over the power. Some will try to dissect each others post and run the tank over. Some will find few posts not upto their own standard and rate. There are countless ways this can go wrong. My personal action on this is I block things that I don't want to deal with. Simple and effective. I…

I wrote another article on how to write 100 words a day. Read here: https://read.cash/@esmeesmith/how-to-write-100-words-a-day-ebdc87f1

Making people believe in singular global govt. Making people take forceful vaccination of Chinese virus. Making people not criticize china. Forcing people to agree with one political bias - left. Forcing people to be political correct for only specific type of minorities. If this is not global dictatorship. I don't know what is. Morning to Noisecash. Hope you are having a good Friday!

I switched to TrustWallet. Every time I hit 3 USD threshold. I will take out BCH from trustwallet and move to another. That's the workflow now. I hope this works and does not cause issues. Are you doing something similar?

Anyone here creating their own NFT? Or maybe selling art or digital item in the NFT marketplace? I'd love to check out your work or the digital item being sold.

More you think and take no action, the more progress becomes harder. Supplement your thinking with the action. If you take action and track progress, it becomes easier. If you discover obstacles, solve them and move forward.

I often feel like in a pursuit to be financially independent we end up being too much frugal. Like we don't spend much at all and continue to HODL. Sometimes life is meant to be lived, spoiled and enjoyed. And we need to have some goals or priorities for items to buy or spend. If we don't do that and HODL too much but get old, we would be forced to do charity. This is one reason each year you have to spoil yourself in a margin. I said margin because if its not there we may…

Have you ever got yourself so much engaged in the work that you spend hours. And you don't think about anything else till you complete it. And you also justify everything right and wrong to favor the completion of the work? That sort of the behavior falls into the completion bias. Sometimes we have to step down from the work that keeps us engaged. That is only way to know if we are on right road. If we don't disconnect we never realize if it's the right road to walk on.

Roasted watermelon seeds. I just tried them. They taste like peanuts after roasting them. Don't turn them too much black or brown. Just few minutes of roasting. No need to add salt or paprika. Just eat as is. It tastes good. How many of you have tried watermelon seeds that too roasted?

Have you experienced that people who are less educated than you are successful? People who are less talented more successful than you? Younger people more successful than you? Does it frustrate you? I am sure it does. What is the cure then? Focus on your own self. Your bills, your life is all yours. Their growth or failure does not help you in any way. There is no "missing out". Your path is different. Focus on your own self. Have a good night and enjoy your Saturday morning!

Sometimes we think that why some things don't work. And often the answer is we are used to those things not working for us. We never wanted them to work once we get used to it not working. In that case someone or something else needs to change the things. So the broke mindset needs to be removed slowly. Hope your Morning is going good! Enjoy your Saturday.

I take a lot of notes on something I observe in life. I have jotted down most of such notes and posted here in noisecash. I decided to now do the same on joplin too. This way if I choose to publish these notes as a book or maybe some report then I can. It's pretty fun to use such app as it can help you take a lot of notes easily. And it can convert the notes to PDF too.

Lockdowns, vaccinations and lack of work, school and college is tricky time. Where we watch some people in outdoors and travel. We feel bad about we being stuck. And we kind of feel like life passing us by. We can't fix this by frustration, anger and disappointment. We can fix this by doing something that keeps our mind engaged. Write. draw. sing. say something on audio or video. Engage yourself. This is the only fix when you feel like life passing you by.

What you eat today, your body will tell you about it in future. What you do today, your future will tell you about it. Do things in such way that your future self will thank you for it. Because we can't go back in past and help ourselves, we are not in Tenet. We can only think of future and help our version by doing things today, in present.

Software developers make SAAS subscription products. Entertainment people make subscription platforms. Govt and utility services are recurring subscriptions. What about writers? We write something and only get ttiped once or get upvoted for it once. We stop writing, we can't meet monthly targets. We can make products but unless we have a strong following we can't earn. What actions writers should take to change this?

I have started using Notion for organizing the office work. I recently tried out it's templates for the simple notes for the work and project management. It's a good planner or task handling software you can say. Have you used Notion or something similar?

People who always find the shorter route. Do they succeed? I mean I am approaching mid 30s and yet to be successful despite working harder. Do people who chase followers or popularity game, do they succeed with spam? Do people who always chase the easy way out, do they succeed without working? What do you think?

Too many thoughts lead to unclear mind. One thought at a time leads to focused mind. If you try to hold too many things in mind, none of them gets priority. If you want focus and clarity, just focus on one thought. Hope your Sunday goes well and also take care!

I have been reading a lot of Gary Vaynerchuk and his advice helps a lot. Instead of creating content, I am documenting my process for content. That in turn also becomes a form of content and teaches you small things. I don't have strong following and name as of yet but atleast I am documenting for now. This approach also helps me with crypto portfolio. I just add up whatever small pieces I can gather from crypto social sites. How have you been changing things this year?

When your mind has nothing to do, it focuses on the worst-case scenario. Give it worst case scenarios to hustle. Tell your mind, we have to work harder to make money. We have to make friends in order to not stay alone. We have to make new connections for jobs. When our lizard brain can't think of positive, give it things for improvement. This falls into win/win matrix block as mind gets fear and hustle continues.

Today I took the leap of faith and exchanged BCH for SGD. We don't have any stores and shops that accept BCH nearby. And I wanted to make use of the SGD to buy something for parents. And so I decided to sell 0.3 BCH for SGD. It's 276 SGD and kind of good enough. Sometimes waiting for future is not a right decision. Now comes the part for another round soon!

There is an interesting thing about being hustler. You don't get rich overnight. And you don't get that ego. You reach your destination pretty late to even boast about it. It's like god used you like the clothing in washing machine. All your arrogance, ego, boasting, bashing, anger just gets trashed. And you reach the goal after that heavy work, it feels more like home than being rich. I am not even there yet but I can feel this pain. Imagine Kernel sanders started KFC so…

Why I decided to sell BCH to FIAT? Short article on Uptrennd. https://www.uptrennd.com/post-detail/why-i-sold-bch-for-fiat-today~ODg0NDE0 #Uptrennd

Every night before going to sleep. I think of all the possible priorities. I get anxiety, How can I do this much work without knowing where it leads? No one knows how to do anything until they do it. So just do it. But don't forget to relax and recharge and maintain your batteries. Have a good Night!

I kind of feel good for selling BCH yesterday. It felt like I did something stressful and that weight is off the chest. I understand HODL preaching but sometimes selling it for FIAT feels good. I hope I reach another round of BCH selling soon. I hope to work towards that too and also help other people and myself in the process. Hope you have a good Monday!

We all have some sort of psychological barriers based on some assumptions. Some are forced on us by culture, by parents, by friends, by society. And as we try to push them it may move ahead but eventually we realize. We understand the fact that a lot of barriers are kept there for comfort zone. And people love living in comfort zone. Me, you and all of us. People who push comfort zone may succeed or may not. But those who try to push the zones tend to live lot more…

If people make fun of you for your looks, lack of money, fashion sense. But you are doing something that earns you money with morals & gives happiness. I think you are on right track. Keep going and adjust as required. You don't need validation from others who follow path different from you. Only death is equalizer. Everything else is just greenery on the other side. Ignore and observe the society noise as required. How do you handle different opinions?

Before pandemic I never thought about Job hopping. But now a days noticed that a lot of people remote working easily get multiple. And the best part is that job hopping often improves salary. It's tough to even retain the job these days, let alone get new one. I wonder how the future is going to be for those who want increment in near future. Do you think job hopping would be easier in near future?

A lot of us have this designed mechanism of avoiding strangers. For Right reasons too. Pandemic has taught many of us the value of connections. Not just limiting talking to social media/internet and the job. We have to go outside the norm of the connections we develop. Talk to random cashier in the mall or vegetable market. Talk to people who look and sound safe. Just small talk. Like weather or lockdown. Make sure to put your ego, mental stress off and talk without any…

For those who are living with parents and in their house, you have an edge. You have enough time to make your own financial backend strong. Invest into crypto, gold, mutual funds, retirement accounts from now on. When you are living with parents. Invest 90% of your income. 10% spend. Make sure to invest into dividend or recurring return type instrument or assets. I saved before moving out and when bad days came I didn't hustle like before. More you save and invest the less…

During lockdown, vaccination and forced work from home, days are going fast. Before you go to sleep, make sure you have feeling of you doing something to push. This push would be helpful once your regular days start as there wont be burden. Save money. Learn some skill. Document that skill and investments. Make sure every day of this silent world that we live is going beneficial for us. Go to bed with some progress and productivity in mind. Hope your Monday was good, Good…

Good Morning Noisers. It's Tuesday. For those who are on uptrennd, enjoy 2UP. I have been pretty busy with the accumulation of crypto across multiple sites. I hope to do the same today and slowly reduce the efforts of near future. Take care and enjoy the day!

I sent 3.x USD in BCH and noticed that pretty big fee. I can't store a lot in one address but it seems while sending this costs a lot. Anyone else noticed the increased fees?

TRON Staking. I do it every time I earn something. I put it in stake. Binance pays 5% yearly yield for this. What are you doing with your TRON?

Interesting how volatile life has become. Few days back I exchanged BCH on one marketplace. And today that marketplace channel is gone. Since 2020, everything in life is pretty much random. Anything can get closed or may appear with no chance of assurance of future. Anyone of you faced similar experience like this from last year?

My nephew got me addicted to the Mobile Legends. I know this is big craze here in Asia. How many of you in PH, Indonesia and Malaysia have such kids at home?

Why I am invested in Bitcoin Cash (BCH)? Read Here: https://leofinance.io/@esmeesmith/bitcoin-cash-bch-why-i-am-invested-in-it

What if you're in situation where you have to start from zero again financially? Like your business goes zero or job loss? How do you respond to such life changes? I hope your Wednesday morning goes well, I'll see you in next few hours. Good Night!

Morning Noisecash. Today I managed to sell some TRX. It was not much but I am slowly going for the saving by converting into FIAT. This year I have given myself time to recover from the last 2 years setback. So HODL is hard for me. Recovery and savings need to be balance. So content writing and things possible for crypto would be done this year. Hope your Wednesday goes well.

I remember the time when we used to see "quit your job, enjoy time on some beach". Ever since crypto came into the power along with social network that pumped it. I have seen less people interested in affiliate marketing and spam. A lot of people spending time on readcash, noisecash, uptrennd, hive, steem, p0x. And this is just a start. More and more social network pump the money, less affiliate spam. I am thankful to god that I don't have to learn all that and pain my head…

Happy Ramadan Month to all my Muslim sisters, brothers around the world!

When we are at school, we make friends around those people. When we are in the college, we make friends around hostel, college, room etc. When we are in the office, we make friends around the office circle. In 2020 & 2021, we have none of these, and a lot of us are now forced to network online. Some of my traveler friends told me, online connections really help broaden our exposure. In short, make online friends and connections this helps in jobs and other trouble times.…

Slow progress. What is your opinion on it? If we reach a lot of our goals later stage of life with slow progress, it doesn't help. In fact it adds up more regrets too. Slow progress can be good when we are in pandemic like state. When there is no rush and no hurry to make things speed up. In what scenario slow progress is good or bad for you?

Hey noisecashers, after listening to some of you regarding the Binance Earn. I decided to put some of my BTC funds into the earn section. Not sure if it is a good or bad move but can't keep it idle in nexo like places. I trust binance more. So placed my BTC over there. 2021 is going to be me being aggressive lol.

Sometimes rejections are redirections. I always wanted to move to US and work there. And here I am. I didn't made it to that place, instead working with cloud service company. I didn't get my goal. I just got to know my country better. Love Asia better. We have flaws, we have problems. Sometimes god has plans. I may not end end up in 1st world nation but I may help Asians better I suppose. Sometimes rejection is redirection for something different. We just have to find out…

It's interesting to note that new decisions are uncomfortable. Something we have not tried for years, is uncomfortable. A lot of things in life are uncomfortable. That is because some of them are asking us for change. Change is scary. And change requires effort to move ahead from comfort zone. Our mind is stuck in comfort zone. Push your mind outside it by doing something different everyday. If it's uncomfortable, it is going to change YOU. Try it or leave it. It's happening…

New day. New Start. What are something we can change today that could help 6 month later? I am starting my 2021 with questions like this every morning. My aggressive investment, consistent content writing hopefully pays off by 2022. I am focusing on every upvote and connection I do on uptrennd, hive, steem. Each action I am focusing on today as a part of the future. I hope you have a good Thursday!

Is it possible that people who hate rich people and hate money, they could be doing that because of they can't make money the same way those people do? I mean a lot of people hate taxes yet they want infrastructure and development. Is it because some people don't want to take effort to make money and instead want it handed over?

When you make small changes, It adds up. Small gains add up to something big. If you do it daily for 1 year, life changes a lot. Never underestimate power of small progress. Keep doing something that brings progress for 1 year.

We do a lot of things in our life that are expensive. We choose jobs, relationships, friends and even the thoughts which are expensive. Now expensive does not mean it costs us money. Sometimes it costs us peace. Yeah mental peace. You watch drama, invite drama. You watch toxic behavior, invite it. If you are doing something that costs you peace, it's not worth it.

Monetizing the Overthinking Brain. Do you suffer from overthinking like me? If yes, then why not write about things to slow down overthinking? Now obviously I don't want you to write about your pms, breakups & personal problems. A lot of things about which we overthinking we can write about it. For example, lets say I don't know how to use binance or some wallet or BCH SLP. Instead of overthinking and beating myself over google, I can write about it. Some random person if…

Sometimes we have to say "NO". We have to take stand on what we believe in. A lot of things about your belief people may not like it. Never compromise with your critical thinking to adjust with people or social justice. People may not like how you think. People may not like how you solve problems. But you have to own up with what you do or don't. By adjusting with popular opinion, you risk your critical thinking. Never compromise with your critical thinking.

New day. New things to learn. Friends will leave you. Your siblings will leave you. Parents too some day will leave you. Your hardwork, sacrifice, patience always stays with you. Your knowledge, your strategies, your mindset can't be taken away from you. I hope your Friday goes well. Enjoy your day.

Every day we have to live life to surpass our yesterday. I was afraid and the under fear of losing something few years back. Today I am not so like how I was few years back. I used to hate being alone. I am now single and happy. As long as you do something to get over fear of the past. You're doing fine. If you compare yourself with past and if you are doing even 1% better, you're doing fine. Never compare with others, compare with your past and keep moving ahead.

When it comes to decision making often we are stuck with two questions. 1. Do we need to double down the efforts? 2. Do we have to let this one go? It's not easy to make these choices considering the time, effort and the future speculations involved. Almost everyday we are forced to choose between these two choices. How do you make the choice between the two?

Measured Progress or Imagined Progress. We often imagine we earning 100 USD in BCH. We often imagine we being the financial independent. But how do we measure our output is what makes the difference. Have you earned 1$ USD in BCH? If yes, that is a progress toward your 100 USD goal. Have you saved money? If yes that is the progress towards the goal. We all have a lot of imagined goals which we don't take action on. And what matters at the end of the day is the progress that…

Have you been at that place of your life where you kind of felt like I have to survive this part of the life, that part of the life and suddenly you reach a point where it's not survival anymore. And it kind of makes you feel like, what now? I have personally faced this from survival to assurance and a bit of stability and now I am aiming for financial independence. But question comes at the end, What am I supposed to do when I get there? Have you faced with such question?

Bitcoin Cash is going to make a lot of people pay their groceries for few months now. It's a sell time I suppose. Price is good enough for even replacing some Asian jobs and farming work of few months. What's your plan? How are you planning on selling or spending or HODL?

Life has an interesting scale. You have givers who give without much expectations. You have takers who take and feel why should I give. Then it's you who have to balance both things up. If you want to go long term, balance of this scale is pretty much important. It's weekend and I hope you take rest and keep your health. Have a good Saturday!

Each one of us have different focus, direction and goals. I am happy when I hustle and earn. Some want passive income. Some want active income. Some just want it handed over. Find out what works for you. Then continue to spend your life being happy with it. Change things if you get bored, find different direction. What you should avoid is being unhappy seeing other people successful. You have given same time and days on this planet. Make it count.

Uptrennd Level up coming. I managed to Level up to Level 10. Mostly through comments and the daily page views. I have not written much content. I think I should write regularly. Either way, a new milestone after 6 or so months. I hope to stay diversified across multiple platforms. Hope your Saturday is treating you well.

Things learned since 2020 to Date. 1. Some people want you to HODL because they want to sell and cashout. 2. Some people shill coins because they get paid for it. 3. If you cashout during the pandemic, you'd have decent sum before crypto is regulated. 4. If you willingly go take vaccine, you have random chance of side effects. e.g. johnson & johnson vaccine type side effects. 5. If you willingly go and test yourself, they would tell you're infected by chinese virus to make…

Ask the right questions. We have plenty of experts and the ageing people. They can be pretty good source of the knowledge. Always be good to people who are ageing, be it 30, 40, 50, 60 and onwards. You can learn a lot of things which can later save you time or even life. Instead of being mean and angry towards people who are older than us. We can learn from them and we can use the knowledge in the days where it matters. All it takes is - asking the right questions.

Weekend is for slowing down. I realized the value of weekend after the pandemic. Most of us Asians are very workaholics and we even work during weekends. Since last year I realized the value of rest and sleep. Make sure you take some rest every now and then before your health has issues. Give yourself permission to work less, think less, breathe more, stay calm more. You need 2 days for yourself. Make sure you treat your brain and body well. Slow down. Take deep breathe.…

How to distract yourself from problem, world issues, family drama, money and politics? My suggestion? Get pets. Make sure to give them time and that time is your distraction. If you pay attention to their eating habits, walking them outside. That time can be utilized to distract yourself from the problems. If you have fish, make sure to feed them and clean water on time. Cat and dog, same, feed them and take them out if you can. Weekend is a good time to distract yourself…

Is it just me who is seeing that people who idolize Elon musk are same people who attack religion and make fun of people for following religion? isn't following Elon musk a new religion too? I mean a lot of people are investing into dogecoin just because Elon musk says so. What value does dogecoin brings? Is it polkadot or ETH or cardano? or some DEFI? Something to think about. Hope your Sunday Morning is going good. Enjoy your Sunday!

We all have expectations from childhood to adult to old age. In school and college phase, we expect parents and people around to adjust with us. After graduation to marriage phase we expect relationship to be in our favor. All the time we have expectations and those expectations disappoint us all the time. Moment we base expectations of love, happiness, productivity on others, frustration comes. When you have less expectations and focus more on your role, you have less…

Noticed the Turkey banning crypto. I know it can't be banned. But still. This news shows that the possible regulations are coming. My speculation: Stick with top 10 cryptos. if possible BTC, ETH, BCH pairs. Most of the useful crypto would be harder to ban or devalue even if regulated bills come. Why? because maximum altcoins would have to wrap their shops once regulations around the world centralizes the crypto with the local FIAT. What do you think about possible…

Since 2020 we have lockdowns, virus issue, job loss, lack of travel, lack of new things. But that's just part of life. As life is mix of good, bad, ugly, not-our-business, and all things. Just because we have few bad years doesn't mean there wont be good days. When the wave of good days come, we would be so busy celebrating and enjoying. We wont even notice oh there was pandemic. Oh there was suffering? Sometimes parting ways with bad things that hurt us is the best thing we…

Weekend Book Read Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life by Francesc Miralles & Hector Garcia. What are you reading? Or have read so far this month or week?

Pandemic has affected the practical learning and the microlearning. Micro learning is basically things you learn in 5 to 10 minutes and do the work. Practical learning is getting into depth with concepts before doing the work. Online learning can solve issues specific to computing Only. However fields like chemical, mechanical, engg, civil work, agriculture, medicine, and fields that require practical knowledge and hands on tend to fall short due to lack of handling of…

How many income streams do you have? Mine currently as follows: 1. Full time job for cloud company 2. Dividend Income 3. Crypto I know it's practically not a lot of revenue streams. But I am working on it. I may consider getting more into mutual funds and the dividend stocks for more passive income. What about you? How many streams of income do you have?

Mindset Changes required for Money and Cryptocurrency Here's my short article : https://leofinance.io/@esmeesmith/cryptocurrency-money-and-mindset-change-required-for-acquisition

New day of the week. New thing to practice. Write like nobody cares. Write like you get things off your chest. This way you may speak the truth, you may write about things that bother you. A lot of times this thought outsourcing helps get different views from the public. And often times it can guide you in the right direction. So just write. I hope your Monday goes well. Take care!

Action changes the way you think. You may become more active in finding out which action leads to results. But to reach this stage you have to take actions that does not bring results. Keep doing this till your mind understand how to and when to avoid which action. Consistent action taking helps with habit of hitting in the right zone. Side effect of this? Well you start ignoring people who doubt you. So take action, document your action and share your result or monetize it…

Fear of Missing Out makes us think that if you do more then you will be happy. In reality that is just not true. It just makes you get addicted to new things. If you do less, you would be focused on things that have more impact for less. Doing more does not mean satisfaction, nor it means more money. Anything that requires you to keep on wanting for more in long term is going to hurt you. Want is the problem. Do for the want is problem. Do things that have more impact. Doing…

Do we pass bad educational practice to new generation? There has been sharp increase in people advocating, you don't need education to be rich. I understand bunch of hustlers who became rich people, but can all replicate that success? Obviously not everyone can be rich. Even worst more less educated easy to be a victim. System is designed to have whales in each part of it. And by not getting educated we become prey to some whales in the system. Minimum education is…

I think every dream which is beyond our control has few phases. It starts with "I wish I could have _____". Then it moves to "I am working so that I can have _______". Sometimes it moves to "I tried but I could not get _______". And finally it reaches to "It does not matter anymore that I didn't get _____". Not everything in this world we are supposed to earn or acquire. Sometimes we have to make peace with things we can't have and let others have it. We have to go after…

How to avoid stagnating in life? 1. Make a decision, even if it is bad. 2. Work on finding out why it was bad and how to correct it. 3. Wrong decisions are still movement and not stagnation. 4. Keep making decisions, you will come across few which are right. 5. Keep taking decisions that end up right. And that's when your life's stagnation stops and growth appears even in small percent. I am applying this formula for the crypto portfolio growth. Creating content everywhere…

Habit of journaling helps a lot. It helps you get your stress off the mind. You may also feel like remembering things that you did the same day and check later on it. Journaling also helps you keep tab of all good thoughts. You can also do a lot of financial tracking through journaling too. I have been journaling for a while. How about you? Are you journaling or keeping a diary? Image Credit: unsplash by user: thoughtcatalog

How many of you have ADA (cardano) in your portfolio? I am going to hold - ADA, DOT and BNB for some time. My goal to earn STEEM and then buying top coins is going to be from here onwards. So this is my goal for month of may.

Content is converting into cryptocurrency. Do not ignore the power of your thoughts. Start writing. On any platform that rewards in crypto. Be it HIVE, STEEMIT, Uptrennd, Readcash, Noisecash etc. Your content saves you from spending money to buy any crypto out there. Make sure to write content and build community of followers around you. You are trading time for crypto and make sure you use it the right way. This investment will pay off in near future.

Pandemic has made many of us to stay in same state for 1 year. Only way to get out of this mental stagnation is learning something new. Not just learn, but document it on social media. This way your FOMO and lack of action scenario will get some movement. If you don't do something then the feeling of staying in same place year after another stays. So start doing something different each day to get out of this feeling. It's Tuesday already! Have a good day ahead.

Bitcoin Cash is getting Positive comments from Quora users. A lot of purist BTC users seems to be ignoring BCH. But trust me if this (BCH) coin has chance of crossing 1K, it's not any low value coin. Even ETH took more time than BCH to cross 1K but the growth of BCH can't be ignored. A lot of people are using Big coins but at the time of cashout they use BCH. I used BCH for cashout while holding other big assets, esp. ETH which eats your investment. Stay invested in BCH. You…

Why the people who fall for FOMO on social media tend to make bad decisions? Last 10 years social media has tried a lot of social justice and revolutions to push gaps. However a lot of it has tried to break the foundation of society, religion and unity. And when in crisis same society stands for community which in todays time is broken. A lot of times our ancestors who tried to setup society with some rules don't exist anymore. This means new rules have to be written to…

We have a lot of chaos or you can say noise on Internet. Everybody on social media is influencing our choices. Even our crypto portfolio gets complex as we see more and more people preaching coins. And in order be a better decision maker, we have to take decisions as if we cut this noise. Keeping things simple and focused sometimes helps. But in a process to always keep things simple, we end up being extreme reductionist. And that brings out narrow perspective in our mind.…

How content creators should monetize their random thoughts? It's based on my one of the post on noisecash. I thought I should convert it into another short article. I decided to post this article on Uptrennd after some time. I should be writing there just to diversify every now and then. So check out the article if you are interested. https://www.uptrennd.com/post-detail/monetizing-thoughts-on-blockchain-how-content-creators-should-monetize-their-random-thoughts~ODg3ODI3

One thing we all struggle in life is that we always want to be right. We always want to have the last word in argument or in our quest for being better. And that is one thing that you have to leave for good if you want peace of mind. Whether you achieve goals or not, doesn't matter. Make sure you achieve mental peace. Nothing can replace mental peace - not money, not people, not relationship. At the end, that matters more than anything. Hope you have a good night and enjoy…

Personal finance is one of the important things we learn in our adult life. I am surprised that why personal finance is not included in the schools or even colleges. You can say monopoly and similar games for getting idea of personal finance. I guess we have to put more of personal finance in our writing and talks often. Wednesday morning is here. Hope your day goes good.

A lot of people say that they don't have money to invest. Previously this was genuine argument against not able to invest. However if you have time to spend on instagram, whatsapp and facebook, you have a time. This time can be used to spend on sites that reward you with crypto. And then that earned crypto can be used to invest. Then sell and buy as required. And keep the momentum going till you want to sell that investment. Invest your time if you don't have money. Know…

How bad do you want it? In a quest to achieve growth, I put myself in the hustle mode. Now I want to be successful bad enough that I can ignore my failures and loss. If you want to go on journey of growth, you have to let go of things. You have to want those things badly or else you dont take efforts to get them. You need to want it bad enough. If you don't want it bad enough, you don't get those things. If you want something with high priority, you take steps to get it.

Procrastination is like some in-built mechanism we have in head. It stops us from taking action and makes us stagnate in our life. What if we choose to procrastinate on bad habits or habits that are not productive? e.g. Instead of sitting on couch for hours watching Netflix we could move more? Instead of blaming other people we can procrastinate thinking about others? Procrastination is harder to remove from our life. What if we could redirect it to something negative? or…

Sometimes we have to walk away. If it is relationship that is suffocating us, hurting us, demeaning us. If it is a job that is not growing us and making our routine miserable. If it is people that are taking our mental resources more than they should. If it is any crypto coin that is not serving our final purpose of portfolio. We have to walk away from things that affect us. Walking away from things is not a bad thing. Sooner or later everybody, everything, everyone walks…

Have you ever thought about "why god puts me in same bad situation again and again"? If we do same things over and over, we can't expect different output. e.g. we hitting our head on wall wont break the wall but hurt us. We using tools to break the wall would break the wall. When same things happen over and over to you, analyze what are you doing same again. Then take that variable out of the equation and try again, do it till you find what it takes. So once you remove the…

For those who are earning TRON (TRX) from STEEMIT. What do you do with it? Here's what I do with TRON. I have staked TRX in the Atomic wallet. I have also purchased Polkadot with TRON. I also purchased BCH with TRON. TRON (TRX) may be low value coin but if you are earning it for free, use it wisely. My strategy always has been pick low hanging fruit and then invest into bigger coins. How do you use your TRX?

Cropbytes is an interesting blockchain NFT farm simulator. I always wanted to try out one of these games and so I decided to jump into the chance. It's a good game if you have patience and some funds in TRX. If you are into such types of the games then do try it out. I have also written an article about it on Leofinance for those who are interested can check it out. https://leofinance.io/@esmeesmith/cropbytes-earning-crypto-nft-by-playing-farm-simulator-game…

Happiness, Money, Wealth and Health all of the good things in the world are on the other side of the comfort zone. As long as you are in the comfort zone you will miss out on one of these things. Before going to sleep, promise yourself to continue your hustle and find the happiness through your actions. More active, No show-off. That's the plan to follow. It's getting late now and time for me to get some sleep. I'll see you around.

Some people get in touch with you only till they are miserable. Once they grow up from that phase, they will leave you. That's something many leech mindset toxic people do. So your job is not to let people leech your mind like this. If you have too many people like this, avoid being open around such type of people. Focus on living with your strength and weakness and live in the present. Thursday is here. Make sure to take care of yourself and have a good day!

I was checking out Binance and noticed the coin - Filecoin. I don't know anything about this coin yet but I am surprised to see that it is one of the high priced coin priced above > 100$. I don't know how come such niche coin has that much value but it seems like I have to catch up a lot while checking out coins which worth more than 100 USD. Like learning why the coin is worth that much price? Do you know about Filecoin? And do you think it's worth investment?

Work from Home? Locked down? Staying home for other reasons? Make the following changes in your life if you can. 1. Yoga or meditation so that you can exercise your breathing. 2. Avoid fried, heavy food. 3. Move from position after every 40 minutes if you are sitting for longer time. 4. Walk within small distance regularly. 5. Listen and watch positive things on YouTube or any other place. 6. Learn some new skills. 7. Practice your hobby from past or present. 8. Do…

Stand up for yourself. Nobody is going to do that for you. Friends will leave you after college and university studies. Your brothers, sisters will leave you once they get married. Parents will eventually die. You are left with the only person - You. Make sure to respect your own self. Don't let people take advantage of you and take you for granted. You matters. You don't need to be rich and resourceful to be respected. Walk away if you don't get respect. Stand up for…

Sometimes world doesn't care for you. Sometimes world does care for you. World here in some context you can say society or people around you. Now if world cares for you then you are among good people. If world does not care for you, then you're free from it's binding on you. So you are free to live the life that you want which is safe for you. You grow when less people care for you. So always take advantage of people not caring.

As we start to age we see our dreams getting crushed under society and world in general. As a young people we have a chance to change this. We can make aged people happy so they can make some of their dream come true. This way they won't stand as an obstacle when we try to achieve our dreams. This is very hard to implement but if we can make dreams come true for others. You may find that people are less likely to become our obstacle. Respect their dreams so that when we…

Everything in our life moves on. Good market moves to bad and vice versa. Bad days move to good and vice versa. We have a chance everyday to move on from our bad past. Each week we can push ourselves to move onto something better. Friday is here. I hope your day goes well and you have some time to rest on weekend!

Diversification is always a good idea. Never depend on single coin. Spread your efforts in multiple places. LEO is one token that I am going to be pretty serious. I have very hard luck trying to write content with HIVE but leofinance is working out. I am going to try and spend some time on leofinance and earn those tokens. How is your involvement with the LEO and CUB? What is your strategy?

Social media and real life has few common things. Everyone talks as if they want to prove something. It's like you listen to me, my words are valuable, then words words words. I like to talk on social media as if I am not trying to prove but just document what I see. I wish to continue this approach as it helps me not get buried with pressure of some bias. Talk to people be it in real life or social media as if you have nothing to prove.

How many people have invested in the Dogecoin just because Elon musk says so? I must be one of the few in the market who have no dogecoin. If dogecoin becomes ETH or polkadot or Ada, then I am game. Considering the 0 zero use case of dogecoin, I find even Monero and Zcash useful than it. Is it just me who thinks Dogecoin is not worth it? (use case wise?)

I have BAT rewards disabled automatically. And my pending balance is used to auto contribute despite me disabling the system. I don't know how come they activated it on their own and distributed the reward. Just noticed this in my brave browser. Sites are getting auto contribution from me without me doing anything.

Be open to difference. We have different cultures. Be open to that. We have different religions. Be open to that. We have different taste in food. Be open to that. We have different choices in colors. Be open to that. Learn to adjust with the difference of opinion. More you stay open to different things, more you adapt for happiness. Be open to happiness no matter how different it comes in your life.

We take decisions. We make mistakes. We don't get what we want. And then after some time we end up randomly getting the thing we want. At that time we feel like it's not now that I wanted it, but we get it eventually. Learn to say "I deserve it" whenever you achieve your goals. Don't get disappointed if you achieve some things late in life. It's always better that it happened than never happened.

If you have money, invest it and let it grow without you have to do anything. If you don't have money, Invest your time, earn crypto, invest it and diversify it. Always keep the cashflow moving and not keep it stagnated. Time is very precious resource, make it work. Saturday Morning. It's weekend so take some rest. I hope your Saturday goes well.

I need some goal to work on for earning crypto. So here's what I am going to put as a goal for crypto earning. 1000 LEO 1BCH 10000 TRX 500 HIVE Dollars 500 STEEM Dollars 10000 - 1UP That's what I can think of now. Do you have any suggestions for tokens/coins which can be earned from content writing?

Do you know Notion? It's one of the knowledge management apps out there that helps with documenting process. We use it at office and pretty much helpful for going through process for entire team. You set the steps how the work is done. You can also set up the tasks to be done. Interesting tool when you have too much diversification to deal with. You can use this to keep track of things to do and things you have done through such apps.

SOLANA seems to be a good investment right now for those who want to stake. On Binance it seems to be offering pretty decent 34.49% APY. You can read more about it in my article on leofinance. https://leofinance.io/@esmeesmith/solana-sol-scalable-blockchain-for-games-as-an-alternative-to-eth

In some parts of Asia, people are infected with corona just because hospitals want to make money. China has kind of opened new revenue stream for Pharma and Hospitals. Every report is corona positive in some Asian places.

People in 1st world who love crypto hate taxes as they have established infrastructures. People in 3rd world and underdeveloped nations can't afford to hate taxes. If taxes are not paid then already corrupted 3rd world nation will halt even 1% of progress. Municipal work will halt, garbage collection will halt, animal rescues will halt. Not paying taxes or hating taxes or boycotting tax system is privilege for 1st world.

Keeping grudge is going to kill you from inside. Not forgiving people will also kill you from inside. There is a peace when you let go. I am trying to do that for years. It takes time but it's worth it. Lot of things to let go now.

We worry a lot about how things can be. Worry does not solve the problem. Worry does not change the future. What worry does to us is it gives us anxiety, stress, constipation and health issues. Worry less and do take some actions. Life must go on ahead and so you should take action to turn worry into results.

Lifestyle Change to Follow in Pandemic 1. Everyday sleep for 6-8 hours. 2. More fiber food in diet 3. Exercise or walk or movement inside the house. 4. Cook simple, less oily, less cheesy, less calorie food. 5. Less stress. Less thinking. Less worries. 6. Write more. Record Videos. 7. Learn new skill. 8. Practice No comparison. No complaints. No criticism. Following some of these myself as much as possible. I am not perfect. Hopefully this should keep me healthy during and…

15 minutes daily can make a lot of difference. What can you do in 15 minutes that can pay a lot of value over time? 1. Curate steem, hive, uptrennd and benefit out of it. 2. Spending 15 minutes on noisecash, readcash can earn you BCH. 3. Exercise for 15 minutes a day goes a long way for health. 4. Cooking a simple dish without oil and cheese in 15 minutes can lead to healthy stomach. 5. Writing something in 15 minutes can build up a lot of backup content. And list goes on.…

Small goals over weekend. We always spend chasing big goals. Instead we should spend time chasing small everyday. And this accumulates over a period of time to something big. e.g. Start doing small things like curation on steemit, hive, in 7 days your curation effort pays.

I want to spend my time educating new, old and with my current gen to change this. e.g. educating people on personal finance, time management, productivity, etc. Why I want to do this?
