RE: Building Success: Typically the Best Approach is to DO THE WORK!

Thanks for your thoughtful commentary! I was going to aske for @topcomment to come through, but I see someone else already did!

why would a Hivian want to have more than one account? Wouldn't it be easier to just have one?

Old habits, I suppose, that have nothing to do with Hive and everything to do with 30 years of publishing online... but specifically going back to the "first death" of blogging around the rise of MySpace/Facebook: If you wanted to be seen and read, you had to have a niche.

The original @curatorcat blog is all about cat fluff and cat pictures, so this version splintered off as a place to do some deeper explorations of other topics, along with writing some general commentary. Could they be together? Sure, the same way posts about auto repair and knitting could "be together."

Personally? I like to "sort" things. Hence, two accounts.

It's pretty common, for example with people who post daily gaming updates about one specific game... and occasionally write about completely unrelated stuff. Or I'm sure you have seen the plentiful "Actifit" updates? Many people have an Actifit account, and a general content account.

New to choosing to participate in contributing on the Hive blockchain, the time commitment is far and away my biggest concern.

Time is always what I struggle with, but I have come to accept that I'm not going to allow my sense of perfectionism to get in the way... or to suck the enjoyment out of doing this. I will get as far as I get, and sometimes I will end up taking week/month long breaks because life calls.

After all, this is not a job, or even a contracting gig.

To the same end, I harbor no illusions that I'll end up building something on the same scale as those who seem to be spending hours and hours here.
