<p>Two guavas tell a simple but powerful story.</p><p><br/></p><p>One has already been picked—soft, sweet, and golden. You can tell it’s ready. The other? Still hanging on the tree. Still firm, still green. Both came from the same tree, same branch, and got the same sunlight and rain. But only one is ripe enough to be picked. The other is still getting there.</p><p><br/></p><p>This is just like the story of two students in university.</p><p><br/></p><p>They got admitted the same year, chose the same course, sat in the same lectures. They studied together, stressed together, and even dreamed together. On the surface, everything looked equal. But as time passed, one of them started shining—good grades, internship offers, recognition. The other one? Still trying, still learning, but not quite “there” yet.</p><p><br/></p><p>But here’s something we often forget: not everyone grows at the same pace.</p><p><br/></p><p>The guava still on the branch isn’t slow or weak. It’s just still growing. It's still taking in what it needs. And when the time is right, it will also be ready—maybe even sweeter than the one that ripened first.</p><p><br/></p><p>In life, we tend to celebrate the ones who succeed early. But we don’t always notice the ones who are still on their journey. Quietly growing. Quietly becoming. But they’re not late—they’re just taking their time.</p><p><br/></p><p>Everyone has their own season. And when your time comes, it will be just right.</p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
