I have a hard time getting a post out too. Part of the reason is that I am too judgmental of what I am writing and spend too much time making corrections before I am even finished. 

But I am learning that creating my own content is actually less time consuming than looking around for private label content to copy and paste and pass off as mine. That is if I just go ahead and write and wait until after I have finished to look for problems with my writing. And I still have to inspect the private label content anyway. 

Here's the thing, it's going to suck when you're starting out. But if you don't do your own work you're not going to get better. 

On Hive people just want to see you and get to know you and will support you even when your content isn't prize winning journalism. That's not what it's about. It's about sharing your passion(s) so people get to know you. 

Topics aren't difficult to come by. Just find a community you love and participate there.

## **That Was a Big Takeaway and Nice Reinforcement For What I Really Already Knew!**

But it wasn't the only thing they talked about.

The show started with talk about the Hive Backed Dollar and getting 20% return when you put it in your savings. That's amazing. And you can earn HBD by creating content and getting your rewards in half Hive Power and half HBD. Until recently I was exchanging it for Hive to build up my Hive Power. 

Yes, I want to get to Dolphin but I want to build something for our future too. And this is all rewards that I am just dumping into a savings account.
An account with returns that can't be touched by an bank. 

So you can create your own content, get rewarded in HP and HBD and save the HBD in a savings account and build your future and none of it has to come out of pocket to start with. Whew! Catching my breath now.
