Creating quality content on Hive or any social media platform isn't child's play. After a few years doing this, (creating art and finance content mostly), I understand why many people tend to stop and give up on creating content on many social media  platforms they belong to especially since many aren't structured like Hive that creators could start earning from even their first post. Even Hive, a project with with one of the best structures still has people leaving or stop creating content simply because they don't earn as much as they expect.

But from my experience creating content on Hive, I can categorically say that Hive is a place that pays well only if we are willing to put in the work.  The work here isn't limited to just writing an article but also engaging and interacting with other users from all around the world. A person who is productive and takes the process of their content creation seriously won't take long to get noticed by the community for their hardwork. But then how can we be productive and maximise productivity on Hive while creating content? The answer to this is the same with any social media / content creation platform anyone wishes to become successful in.

**Develop Passion For Content Creation.**
It's a known fact that most people start creating contents when they see or hear about how content creation could pay so well. I personally joined Hive with this mindset, but that mindset changed in my early days as I came for the money but wasn't getting rewards as I expected. I realised I had to keep creating content like it was a part of my life and that helped me maximise my productivity on Hive as I felt more comfortable creating content almost everyday( if not everyday) which is so important in growth of every content creator on Hive. 

**Setting Reminders And Have A ToDo List.**
Setting reminders is a great way to help with productivity as sometimes we may get carried away by other activities in real time and either forget about creating on Hive or feel too lazy to create by the time we're done with these activities. Reminders and ToDo lists help us prioritise our activities, help us minimise time wasting activities and don't let us miss out on rewarding actities on Hive like contests, weekly entries, and creating content in general. 

**Tools, Gadgets, Equipments And Resources:**
As a content creator, having the right set of tools, gadgets and resources would help you grow and become more efficient at creating content. Creating content is serious business and so should be treated seriously.  This is also a reason why many folks are at the top of their game when it comes to content creation as it helps improve their productivity. 

Creating content anywhere isn't an easy task, but I'm hoping the points shared in this post help you enjoy the process more and increase your productivity as a content creator.
