Now they are legends, but: How did they start?

December 11, 2021. No. 93

We have always seen a group of users that stand out above the rest, due to the number of subscribers, the quality of their articles, or the length of their reading. So, many might think: "How lucky you are!" It's not luck at all, it's hard work and never giving up. They all started from scratch, just like you. They started out earning pennies or a little more than a few USD worth of BCH for each of their articles, with no followers, and still decided to move on. Today you have them qualified as legends, as the best of read.cash, and you should, as I do, look at yourself in their mirror and want to advance like them and take the best of each one to improve yourself. Never envy them, because it is not the way to move forward, envy will slowly kill you inside.

These days I have been with a lot of work outside of this platform and virtual world. I've barely had time to spend being around here. Then fatigue covers you completely and makes your body a scouring pad. It is now close to midnight and I had previously fallen asleep, dead from exhaustion, but had to get up to write my daily article to publish it. Willpower is paramount. So I see people who still downvote articles and it hurts a lot. Especially in contest posts. Incredible to see how a few dedicate themselves to downvoting articles, and we all know that it is specifically for trying to demerit the work of others, in a vain attempt to make theirs better.

Success doesn't come just like that. If you don't work to achieve it, it will never come. And we all know that it is not easy to achieve it. So the next time you think about criticizing an article or a user that is generating more than $10 USD in BCH, think that it has not been easy and that it is still extremely difficult to maintain that level. Don't criticize, work and you can enjoy the same success at some point.

Let's look at the start of some users in read.cash. I hope you'll excuse me for quoting you, but it was necessary to make my point.

@PVMihalache

Now you look at him as the man Superman, as many of us have nicknamed him. I didn't think it was that much, but when I checked his profile in the beginning, it was amazing to realize that he had to spend more than 100 articles (I lost account, maybe 200) to be able to make a stable somewhat stable money. Do you know what that means? Write more than 100 articles earning pennies. Days and nights of research, of writing, of sharing, to simply get a few pennies in USD and sometimes very random a little more than $1 USD on that article. It is very easy for many to give up, but they did not and now look at the result. His articles are one of the most valued on the platform. Quality, perseverance, dedication, and time. Total surrender to the BCH and the entire community.

@bmjc98

Here we have a warrior. Since she started, her articles show her desire to work and that she wanted to take over the world. It is evidenced in that despite getting literally pennies on her articles and others despite having views she was getting absolutely nothing, she never gave up and she continue to write. Imagine multiple items without even getting $0.01 USD worth of BCH. It's just not easy after that wanting to keep writing for many of us. But she did. And I'm telling you that they were days of 3 and 4 articles in a row without even getting any tips on them, they are hours of sleep and delivery to the platform, and that she did not get any reward for it. But she did not give up, and now can see her achievements. Her constant and sincere work with the community managed to find the way to success.

@Eybyoung

Here I was even more surprised. Who does not know this young mother who struggles daily here? We all know her and have her as a warrior. Her articles are now well valued, but in the beginning, you would be surprised to know that she even wrote 10 articles in a row and did not make a single penny. Amazing, right? You would have endured the pressure of not having a single tip from any user in your articles. Imagine spending 10 days posting and not receiving any kind of reward. Only a few hold the pressure and carry on. For that and much more, we owe her our eternal respect. I'm sure more than one of us was no longer around.

@Jane

Perhaps the most impressive case that you will see here today that I have been looking at. Do you know that after 15 published articles and several short posts, Jane had barely earned $0.16 USD in BCH for all of them? I am sure that none of us would have endured that pressure and we would not be here. We would have given up. But not only that, when I kept scrolling to look at her first articles more, it took months for her to manage to make more than $1 USD per article in a less stable way. In many, she got nothing, and in others very little. There are dozens of articles written without even obtaining anything. Accumulated fatigue, hours of sleep, and research, to receive nothing in return. That is precisely the question, to give without expecting to receive anything in return. Success came and in what way. Congratulations.

And so in the same situation, more users such as @Ruffa, @gertu13, @LykeLyca, and many other users who have been on the platform for more than 1 year. In those days there was a scoring system to evaluate users and it was not very easy to get rewards. Even so, they knew how to endure and show that when you have a love for what you do, results are achieved. Patience, perseverance, hard work, and love for others are the keys to achieving any positive result.

Now have you seen why it is impossible for you to compare yourself with them? They are legends, and legends deserve respect and admiration. Learn from them, you will need it.
