* When the Monthly Thread Keeps Saying “Not Yet”
***
Just checked the results of this month’s thread contest… and… 😔 I didn’t make it. Again.

****
I was so sure I had a solid entry this time—spent hours polishing every word, double‑checking the hashtags, and even added a little extra flair.

****
When the “No winner” notification popped up, I actually laughed out loud. It’s like the universe is playing a prony little joke on me.

****
But you know what? Every “no luck” is just a reminder that I’m still in the game, still showing up, still trying.

****
So here’s to the next monthly thread: may my words finally hit the mark, or at least get a honorable mention! 🙌

****
If you’ve been in the same boat, drop a comment or an emoji below—let’s commiserate and keep the momentum going.

****
And hey, if I do win next month, I’ll treat myself to a celebratory pizza. Until then, I’ll keep crafting, keep sharing, and keep hoping.

Keep try coz you are not alone many others also try and try to win top poster but who get lucky and choose by admin so don't lose hope maybe next time your chances more Hope you get lucky soon keep try good wishes good luck 🤞 🍀
 
It has been since more than a year I'm writing and creating heavy works on forum — unknown to the real criteria of selection — sometimes I won and sometimes i was laying way far than the winners. To say, that is yet to come, you need to be continuously working hard on the field and hopefully the fruit will blow your mind ❤️
 
I won't lie, it's a little hard to miss out on another win—but I'm still here, still writing, and still doing my best. Maybe next month I'll be able to do something better.
 
OP - You need to alter your perspective on things. Simply participate and expect to be included in that list. However, it won't occur that way; you should post about the things you enjoy and wish to share with others. This should serve as your true motivation, as you are spreading joy, knowledge, and forming friendships along the way. If you happen to win, that is merely a bonus. Similar to gambling, where you generally experience more losses than wins, if you do win, just relish it and view it as a bonus; the same principle applies here.

Similarly, I might also reflect on the months when I thought I should have been on that list, but I refrain from posting any of those thoughts, considering that the moderators are the best judges, and undoubtedly, the articles would have been superior to mine, so all credit goes to the winners. Keep it simple, and you will begin to enjoy the posts more.

Oye i don't know your regretting or just no more energy to post and no resources you have for winning it but it seems your dismotivated. You're not alone in this. many have been in the same boat, and it's frustrating when it feels like our efforts aren't recognized however your persistence is inspiring Keep going, and I'm sure your time will come.

Suggestions:
sharing ideas, your entry to get feedback from others. Sometimes, a fresh perspective can help you refine your work.
don't compare yourself to others, focus on your own growth and improvement.
at least treat yourself to that pizza regardless of whether you win! or not!
