Pushing on, and on, and on... There is no place here for quitters! I AM ALIVE! My day didn't start very well, but as the day was passing by, I was feeling better and better... Maybe in one second, I have thought to "skip a day" and to not create the video for this challenge, but that was just a second of doubt... And sometimes that small second can change your direction heavily as NOT DOING something is way easier than taking ACTION... So, you get the point why Devil has an easier job... :) As I didn't feel well, I have spent some time on the sofa watching TV... Actually, it wasn't a TV program, I was watching some YT videos [about the economy](https://youtu.be/PHe0bXAIuk0) in "How it works", but for noobs... So, learning some new stuff that I didn't know before... It's always a good thing to learn something new... You don't have to be an expert in some "new field", but it's good to keep yourself informed... Watching those stuff, you will probably fall into depression... lol... (I hope not) as we are not in a good path doing things as we are doing at the moment... Some of the people probably will not go back to their previous jobs as they will not exist... Here in Spain a lot of hotels, restaurants are expecting to open in 2021... And a large portion of the economy here is based on tourism... So, maybe it is a good time to think about some alternatives to earn some additional job (or primary job)... Who knows how long will this last and who knows how will our lives look when it finishes... A few good options to think about earning some bucks are content creation here on Hive, maybe video creation (vlogging) here, or on [Library Network](http://bit.ly/ph1102-lbry)... Why am I forcing LBRY? Well, it's a blockchain-based video platform where you have multiple income sources... You can earn money from tips on your videos, or through rewards by being active on the network, or by inviting others to the platform... And what is most important, it's FREE! Oh, yes... You have another great option and it is [StartEarningToday](https://startearning.today/ph1102) website, where you can start earning your first crypto in just a few minutes after joining... And last, but not least, you can take some free affiliate marketing training at [ClickTrackProfit](https://www.trker.com/go/112725), where you can find over 100 training videos... As I said before... It's important to learn something new and keep your self informed, as much possible... That's your key to success! This video is the part of I Am Alive challenge which takes part on the Hive blockchain! Check out #IAmAliveChallenge, created by @flaxz!

Today, I would like to share with you my thoughts about optimism, responsibility, and some other stuff which you will find inside the video... I was watching my previous video and noticed that I looked a bit pessimistic in it, and wanted to clarify my "look"... lol... I have to smile a bit more in my videos, as I really look a bit "dark", but I don't want to be like that... Maybe I'm talking about some "tough things" that aren't very pleasable to hear... But, it's important to say them NOW, as it's easier to accept it BEFORE than when it is too late... What you will hear inside the video is my perspective about things and it doesn't have to be the same as yours, but I'm always opened for discussion in the comment section... Actually, I like that part the most as there are some awesome people in this community with great ideas and thoughts... It is a pleasure to discuss this with you...

Today was ugly weather outside, and as we had Easter holiday the past weekend, it all caught me unprepared, so I didn't have my Hump Day Easy Talk video... All these are great excuses to skip a day and quit... For someone else maybe... :) I have decided to create a kind of collage of free royalty videos and my personal videos, and combine all that with the voiceover where I spoke about another thing that inspired me to create this vlog... This time, I "blame" Garrey (@moonthumb) for the inspiration that he gave me in his comment on the post with the question [What does crypto represent for you?](https://peakd.com/hive-119826/@liotes/qeimbjlr)... It was a post/mission on the @liotes blog page where we got some great replies and stories from the community... Check that post (and comments) and don't forget to play this video, too!

If you are following my blog, and watch some of my vlogs, you have probably noticed that I like to mix topics... But, in certain timeframes, I do a couple of posts on a similar topic that isn't necessarily business-oriented, but it's more my look at current events in the world... There is more than one answer to the question WHY am I doing that, but one of the main reasons is that sometimes I see things from a different perspective than others... And, I'm not the only one that does that... A lot of you have the same feeling, as we are different... But, when something bothers me, or I have concerns about it, I like to share with others, to check the "pulse" of the community... To see if someone else has a similar opinion, or to see the picture from a different view by reading your comments... I'm not doing these things to make you change your opinion, I'm just sharing my personal opinion, based on the experiences that I had in my life... And when all of us do that, we are getting richer, as we have gathered more experiences and we can see a "big picture" with more clarity, as we have different points of view... In this video, I have shared my reasons why am I doing videos on differences, respect, tolerance...
