Topic: Always chanel your effort to meaningful things. (Read 275 times)

What you've said is true OP, these days you can find alot of youths indulged in one usless habit or the other that eats up their energy but they would still continue with it, at times it could be playing games with our mobile phone but for someone over the age of 18, I think you should have a better hobby than games at this point cause, your life just got a lot of responsibility and challenges you would encounter if you don't take time to invest in reasonable things like reading books, working and self development.

U dey very much correct, no be about spending time on a particular something, the fact na how e dey affect u? Either positively or negatively, although e good make we put our time and effort to something wey dey meaningful but at time, once once, person supposed just dey go through things or supposed dey also get time to things wey no really matter, just to while away time, that is to clear up ur head or get small free time for urself, because no be everytime person dey dey serious for something, at times too we play or chat just like we do in Facebook and on WhatsApp, it makes us to relax our mind and brain too.

The Thing be say they don't actually know that there is no short cut to making good posts, whatever you do wheethe you spend all the time here or you don't for me I believe that reading is actually the key here not even multiple posting. My brother if no read nothing go dey your head and if nothing dey your head then how you wan come bring quality when the source of quality itself is empty as a shell.

It is not all about spending quantity time in the forum but spending quality time in the forum. How can someone spend quantity time as you talk am the %80 spend in the forum has nothing to do with one quality post you can make a day. Op if you make one quality post a then dat one go fit give you plenty merit Dan when you dey spend enough time here in the forum but at the end spamming and shitposts. As for me oh. I prefer newbies post one thing a day and spend enough time to read articles and threads. Now "spending your time on meaningful things, na to use the 20% time the person allocated to visit the forum qualitatively and not quantitatively.

Op your advice is gud one, but the way the world is going I have not seen anything to be less meaningful mostly once it has to deal with social media, success is not tide down to one direction, diversification is the true success.
Many who give time to social media has multiple purpose of being there and give much time, such as sorting of information that can help them also contribute in the forum, carrying out some of there business advert, getting them self update on other sphere of life trending and also making some communication through chart to cut down excess usage of air time during call, with all this no one among this is less in human pursue to succeed it depends on perception over it.

Growth comes in different way the level of information you has can catapult you with dynamic speed , what make soup sweet is not just one element but a combination of other element, focusing only the forum without sorting others area of growth may not give you the actual growth but stunted growth.

Conclusively while give priority or channeling one must look at other area to make the growth speed up.

Na true wey you talk sha but if ona watch well ona go notice say when I create this thread I been no understand much much about how person they carry grow for here but after I don encounter alot of things for the forum I done learn alot and now I understand say the time you spend here for the forum no determin sha but how you fit utilise the little time you get by doing reasonable things. Although before person go start to dey use small time to do reasonable thing, you go don spend alot of time studying the forum. After which you go start to dey use small time compeard to the first time you take start.

Wetin u dey talk here so no easy to activate easily as a newbies in dis forum and, if u can still remember how u joined dis forum as a newbies and it will make u look as if u are wasting your effort in d forum but base on d orientation d person dat introduced u gave to u dat made u to endur to seen d opportunity u are seeing in d forum today.

Wen I newly joined d forum, I never believe say person go fit achieve some thing wey go make others people to see d person like person dat is doing well in her working place not knowing dat my sources of income is from dis forum and dat is why I like to b in dis forum all d time to keep learning a new things from those dat know more than me.

For me, I go like talk say time management na big part of this thing wey you talk about. Na we fit decide say we go dey spend our time for things wey dey add value to our life, instead of things wey go distract us or waste our time. We fit use several tools and methods to manage our time well well. For example, we fit use to-do lists, calendars, and other tools wey go help us to keep track  the things wey we dey do. And we fit also dey make sure say we dey set specific goals for ourselves and we dey prioritize wetin dey important pass others. For example, if you wan learn a new skill, you fit decide say you go dedicate one hour every day to this. And then you fit use another one hour every day to spend time with your family and friends. I dey call this "time blocking" - na like you dey block off specific times for specific tasks. And this one go help you to focus on the things wey dey important. I dey think say if we get this type of plan wey dey clear, e go help us to balance all the things wey we dey do.

Proper attentions is ought to be given to what matters most to you but you must not have most of your times spent at it. It all depends on your personal aids and abilities to fit in into that you're in for. Grace, hardworking and Smart works all all tools to archive your goals but that or hardworking can be exclusive sometimes.
Op, I don't know how you feels in couping in this forum but to be, the realistic achievement of this forum is in ligns with the outside world. Basically this forum is primarily for bitcoin discussion and heroin we can't attain the whole lessions of bitcoin here. We also adop to learn different things about our bitcoin journey either in the social media or the physical outdoors.
Behold, we've heard so many of us discussing our their lessions and experiences from one bitcoin investor to the other by interfering in a social discussions, so are through the media updates.

We can actually tends to grow our bitcoin knowledges at all cost and in many ways. I can also testify that there are lot of technical knowledgeable individuals or even those who invested in the bitcoin before this forum was discovered and yet they're no amongst the forum users here.
You can say yes, you can't grow yourself without this forum, you can actually be right but that's just at your own view and not in all ramifications. Most forum users here might not be here to acquire knowledges but to spread the and impact others with the potentials they've up their senses to whom is willing.

If you ask me, I'd tell you that I don't want to deep in too much of my carrier and capacities into this bitcoin industry because life didn't just end here, i most especially want to acquire the elementary knowledges in the sense that I'd understand how to keep my asset's secured, know when to sell and when to buy more for accumulations, and how to stay secured in the theft societies and not most deepen of the technical knowledges.

To be able to achieve a lot you need to practice this channeling of your energy to positive thing to achieve personal fulfillment, productivity, positive impact , Growth and development in the society

When you no believe in something, e go hard you to carry your effort put dere because you go dey look am say na effort wey you dey waste on top the thing, so you go channel your energy go another side where be your priority. So na so e be.

Based on the thing wey you dey talk about now, you go see for yourself if you put effort more you self go see the results go dey come, e never dey late to change anything na to put more zeal.

You can be right because what one does not know and wishes to know demands time but I don't think it is about spending more of your times on it. You can always work on schedules and try to utilize every moments of your engagements depending on ones abilities and passion's to make meaningful produces of it.

Combining social media and this forum as a beginner go slow you down on a very serious note and na big distraction when you go try avoid if you get the intention of growing for the forum. I been like Facebook wetin no nice but as e be say I don see platform when indie channel all the energy I de use go argue for comment section into, I just de gradually withdraw myself from social media.

Normally, apart the forum most of us already get one or two things going on in our private life when de eat up our time and attention and adding social media to it will make us very unproductive most especially considering the fact that we are not old in the forum.

This forum is an easy place to survive by just following simple instructions, always inquisitive to learn and willing to share your knowledge. Avoid any form of competition or having any feeling of  being less productive to the forum cos I believe as long as you keep learning both in and outside the forum you can earn good amount of merit and rank up to the level you ever want to, just know it will take time and for some other persons it won't cos basically they might have known Bitcoin very well and how it operates before joining the forum but assume a newbie who is just having an introductry into Bitcoin will find it more difficult to grow so fast here cos he lack those basic knowledge and is still trying to learn the ways.
It is not mandatory to spend most of your time here in the forum but the little you spend make it worth.

Consistency is one of the ingredients of success but it becomes easy to be consistent when the passion is there and easier to channel our time into meaningful things when we have passion for the meaningful. It is worth sounding a caveat here which is that what appears to be so meaningful to Mr. A might be a wasted effort to Mr. B and over time people have failed to continue the push because of criticisms from others who don't understand what is meaningful to them.

In as much as channeling effort into meaningful things will certainly pay off notwithstanding how long it will take, knowing that opinions of people as regards what should constitute meaningful things shouldn't take center stage in our bid to clock our target. Doing and doing again while paying attention to the evils confronting us or better put, to those elements which are antithetical to doing meaningful things is necessary if we must develop.

In summary, with fewer distractions and more engagement in what constitutes meaningful things to us as an individual, growth becomes inevitable either sooner or later.

I don't think if spending such time of about %80 here is really a sign of success. Sometimes success is messured according  to the value you creat with your time. Staying here in Bitcoin forum all day without learning anything is also as doing nothing. Many people have spent countless times here, thinking that it will do the good but they failed, because they don't know how to go about it just as @makus said, say person need to get telegram notification bot wey go dey connected to some of your conversation with some discurssion with some oga them. So that if them make comment, you go receive the notifications so that no be every post person ft read.

For here, many people dey grow on stety basis, and most at times them no dey dey online steady. Them dey make sure say them task themselves to achieve a better thing or contribute meaningfuly to the forum, just withing the little slightest chance wey Dem get. So you go confirm am say wetting one person fit use the whole day do somebody go use 1hour do am. Or wetting take take 10 years to achieve by mr A, go take 1 or 2 years to achieve am by me B. That is to tell you say no matter what you do, if you no dey follow the wright track you no go still grow as you talk.


Everything you talk here na true because I don hear am for different, how members dem been suffer well well before them fit rank up for here. because merit been scare. But now new people go do 30 post no merits, them go start to complain. If you see this forum you go see some people wey don dey here for long. there activities Don reach 500 but just get 30 to 40 merits, and them never still give up. that is to show you dem no give up on the hustle.

One thing is for sure, for this life every first timer dey discover something and they always sacrifice things to achieve what they potray now. Thia 9ja local board wey everybody dey come dey creat thread almost everyday like this, I think na the effort and hardwork of some legendary wey them put for here, to take make here a better place today. some of the old members account dem ban am, because of Small mistake but now there mistake don be a form of correction for the newbies. So the old members here really suffer. So I think them deserve respec. We sopos learn from them, because them be buch of knowledge. No be say we go dey quote them anyhow, why we no no how the quote botton even come out.

OP see success now is not too measured by how hard you work now again as success is being measured by how much of creativity that you have, like what do you really have to offer and what you're offering is it worth it? That's the one billion question. One of our major problem in this life is impatient, we don't want to walk before we run but we want to fly. If most of our legendary now tell you how they started their journey in this bitcointalk forum you will even find out that some of us are very very lucky here. Some legends here when they started they devoted all their time and effort on this bitcointalk forum, some of them even spent 2 to 3 years before they started eating the fruits of their labour but take a look at now that even before 4 months some people have even reached the level of a full member something that even took some senior members here years before they could achieve not even that they weren't too creative but at that time too this bitcointalk forum have not recorded the kind of improvement it has now because then there were very few merit sources coordinating how merits was distributed within the forum and there were no or very few local board for people to interact more in a language they could understand and also assist each other to achieve certain level of success but now we have about 109 merit sources and lots of local boards.

Talking about spending much time on social media; the reason why people spend most of their time on social media is.because that's where majority of the information we share here are gotten from. The information that is being circulated more here are gotten from these social media platforms because that's where majority of people across the globe interact and give information just like the X ( twitter ) now. You will find out that majority of the information we circulate on this platform is gotten from twitter and other social media. And in that social media that's also were majority of the world population are so it is easy to get information around the globe through this social media platforms.

Now it is not how regular or committed that you are in this bitcointalk forum that matters what matters most is what impact are you creating towards the improvement and growth of the forum like are you really learning from people here? And are you also giving out information that will assist someone here? Those are the questions that should come across your mind. A lot of people here also have some other important activities they do outside here that fetches them income so you don't expect such people to always be active here when they have other stuffs to attend to outside here as the world now requires versatility because if you ain't skilled in different professions then you will really find it difficult to propagate to a certain level of life.

The reason why most of us are very anxious to get merits from our posts here is just majorly to rank up quickly and join signature campaigns that will earn us income at the end of the day because if this signature campaigns are being scrapped out from this forum watch how many persons that will still have time to be more active on this platform. It is important for us to know that life is in stages that's why even in our institutions we graduate from one class to the other and that's how our knowledge and exposure keeps increasing so it is good for us to take things here one step at a time no need to rush things as the learning process cannot be skipped because that's what makes us to know and improve better in the future so like a saying that "a hot soup is being licked gradually" so na small small them dey take lick soup wey dey hot as life is a gradual process and we move from a stage to another.

Op I understand wattin you dey talk and e make sense, but just as you talk say wattin work for A fit no work for B, as all of us get different way when we take dey reason some kind things, actually if you go talk this kind thing for outside this local board dem go tell you say bitcointalk no be do or die affairs, some persons dey see as normal social media for discussion, just that na we wey dey for this LB know wattin we come find for here dey reason am in another wey. E dey very necessary for newbies dem and people wey never too understand some things about crypto like me  to dey spend time dey follow this forum up to learn more but, we fit do am in a smart way so that we no need to dey spend that 80% for this forum. Many of us get work before we enter here.  like me now, I be electrician so I no go fit just ignore my work come dey read people post.

The alternative na be say make you use your telegram bitcointalk notifier take dey follow some strong hand dem for this forum, so that when dem post you go fit get notification, den from there you read their post to learn from dem continually. If you try this thing wey I dey tell you, you go spend less time here but you go dey gather information small small dey go. And when e comes to social media I like to use the X social Media because for there you go fit follow some guru dem for this bitcoin matter and from their post you ho still dey learn, most times sef I dey participate for online live meeting for X wey dem talk about bitcoin and the crypto system. So if you sabi used social media well you go see say no be just place wey you go discuss with your friends, but na another place to take learn.

I great ona my people of 9ja. This matter just enter my head. Though no be about bitcoin Sha, but wetting dey affect our growth for Bitcoin forum expecially the newbie or members. Which na about our inability to understand the forum. I no say me fit dey for the categori of wetting I wan talk. but any how e be I gat to still talk am. Most of us wey dey complain here, say Dem no dey grow or get merit
 . na because of how we dey misuse our time. but I think na we be the cause of or own problem. We dey spend %80 of our time for social media and %20 for bitcointalk. without chanelling %80 to Bitcointalk and %20 to social media. I think what is so inportant in life is how we should put the most important thing first in our life, rather taking the less important first.

The few times I put my effort here, I see say I grow, but as I leave am, I just dey statgnant. But than one no mean say wetting favorite me go favour you. That is to say that stangnacy is a barrier to success. If I had chanelled my effort constantly here, maybe I for fit still grow pass like this. The same thing chaneld to the society.  person wey dey bring him mind to learn work, dey better pass that one wey no serious.

Wetting ona think about am?
