Bitcoin Forum

The purpose of the discussion is for forum users who possess one form of skill or another and are making profit from it to share personal episodes of how they turned "Skill to Profit".

Most persons learning a new skill are often faced with the big question/challenge of turning their skill to profit. After acquiring a skill, truth is if there is no platform for you to practice and offer your services and also make profit, you may become less interested and efficient with the skill you learnt and it may soon be forgotten by you.

Please share personal episodes of how you, a skilled forum member has turned your skill to profit, so other forum members who are in between can benefit from your story.

You are right op, what i found very good to the thread mostly is transformation of skill to profit so in normal any skill is looking up to a profit and benefit, some people have have talented skill but they are not converting it a meaningful angle of life despite that skill learnt does not die and does not be forgotten after time's because skill acquired is like a graduate in high college 

It is not arguable that skills are potential money if that is what you want to say because when you learn a skill, you can provide for your self, take care of other people by extension. But it is potential money if you make yourself relevant with it and not be lazy to upgrade yourself and grow with the current waves of the line of skill you have acquired including technological. As you see things are changing and someone who only has old fashion of doing things in his field of skill will end up being starved because naturally they will be out of demand, market and be swallowed by those who have gone miles away from the old ways. The point therefore is learning a skill is money waiting to be converted if willing to follow the current process of growth. Almost every old ways have changed and new styles, designs and patterns keep coming up. Just one example, the electronics of today are not same with those 10 years back etc


In another light I don't agree that you can forget what you have learnt when you don't put them in use, all you need is little brush up, upgrade and you are up and running. Like it is said,that an old woman does not forget the dance steps she was used to when young. To this end you can see her trying to make such moves when the rhythm comes  ;D ;D

The best way I think to turn your skill profitable for yourself, is hard work, so many professions and skills out there and their are even more people with abilities to fill it in, so now it's a competition, so in other to turn your skill profitable you have to do more than your closest competitors, at this point you go extraordinary, normal people sleep and want to relax, that's when you distinguish yourself, work more time than. The other person in furnishing your skills and abilities, and before you know it you have so many opportunities in earn from that skills of yours.

Skill, yeah it is something you must learn if you don’t have one and if you have one then you must learn to implement. Well, I have learnt something from wolf of Wall Street movie, the simple formula when a guy sells his pen with supply and demand formula. The most realistic form of skill with thousands of ways to do but you must know how to use it! Just having a skill does nothing good for you. You should be able to either create a demand or simply limit the supply of you are billionaire like Elon. Well in most of the cases we are demand guys.

This might seem way off the chart but this market runs on it since many years. It’s better to acquire the skill set as we are not born with set of them.

I have used very strategic way of working in the crypto space. You wait for the right opportunity and also have close look on the market to enter at right time and exit at the perfect time. If you know this then that’s the smartest trade you can have.

Right on the spot! I have learned drafting skills using programs like Autodesk AutoCAD and 3dsmax and honestly speaking I forgot all of those in the present. I never used them to seek an employment, or earn by freelancing, and the knowledge slowly fades away. I am an entrepreneur at the moment, most of the skills is communication, marketing, and related to consumer services after sales.

I realized that even though you learned new skills, it will just fade away if you don't put it on action, maybe for some reason we just have to be pasionate about what we do. We should follow the career that we love to do and that way the knowledge we learned will be forever with us until we die.

The only skills right now that I put practice to aside from being an entrepreneur is building my own pc. I've learned it ages ago and it currently resides on me as I love building gaming Rigs. Also I am a miner that of eth that, a 4 amd cards that the rigs I build my self with the skills that I've got. My friends are lucky too because I give them this service for free, fixing their PC and upgrading it gives me a bliss of time.

If it's not limited to crypto-related stuff, I obtained skills of translating texts, and turned them into profit by working as a translator for some period of my life. I also have public speaking skills, and at another point in life I used them (but not merely them) when working as a school teacher. I think skills don't always translate directly into jobs, and sometimes one job requires a set of skills, as well as knowledge, but what's important is to start looking for a suitable job that will both utilize the skills you already have and help you develop them more.

That's the problem with trying to learn a skill I guess? It's hard to determine whether it's because you want it, or you're in it for the money or both. Honestly, if you have both that would be for the best, and if it's because you want it then money would naturally follow, but if it was the latter? That's the hard part. Realizing you don't have enough "skill" to earn money with it would just lead you to giving up. To make a comparison, it's like an artist that keeps comparing themselves to others with years of experience, and ends up quitting since they have "talent" and he doesn't.

Developing skills takes time. A LOT of time imo. It isn't something that'd pop up just because you started doing it, so persevere since that's the only thing really that could push your skills to the level where it would turn iinto profit.

Every individual must have their own abilities and we must have certain skills, starting from talent from birth which is then continuously trained and developed into skills and there are also skills that come suddenly due to technological advances or others so that we develop them.
Skills will make money if there is a will and also make skills as services or others according to existing skills or seek or learn new skills according to the development of the world so that your skills are easy to make money, and produce different skills by combining skills with creativity for results Unusual.
In my opinion, today's people must have the skills and creativity to earn extra money or income so that their lives are not mediocre.

I think this is a relationship between skill and passion. It is very suitable to learn a skill close to our passion or the same with our passion and with that you won't have any issue to grow faster into it. A business person in real life or a marketing will better understand trading online better and faster than someone that is a novice in the real world business. That is saying a real world business person knows different terms in business and how they interact with themselves like demand, supply, ROI volume etc

In my opinion, the first step is to make sure you learn a skill that's highly sought-after, many people go on to learn skills that doesn't really have large demand in our contemporary society, such people often tend to lack enough customers to offer their services to. Thus one thing that's very important before you learn a skill is to access it's present demand and check how many people would actually pay for this service, after doing that research, you can then go for it.

Having said that, the most important is to be good/near perfect in what you do/the service you render, of course the skills that are highly sought-after will be laden with competition, that's where your effort has to come in, you have to be really good at what you do, and that's the only way you can stay ahead of competition, if not you'll still struggle to turn that highly needed skill into profit.

Personally, I consider it more of an "experience" rather than "skill" as being a newbie on the cryptocurrency world definitely costed me a huge opportunity of earning more.

Last 2017 when I joined this forum, I was privileged enough to participate in dozens of campaign signatures. Since the price of 1 BTC was relatively low compared today, the pay-outs were given in huge denominations. Unfortunately, I cashed out majority of my BTCs on the same year. Upon checking my blockchain record, I saw that the total number of BTCs that I received on my wallet amounted to roughly ~$30,000.

That is why, I uphold the system of HODLing my BTCs for long-term gains. I was too hasty and young back then; though it was a costly lesson, it definitely taught me to be wary of my investments.

Most of the times people have to invest in their education before they can actually learn a new skill since most of the times people take only degrees seriously. The companies most of the times need people to have a specific requirements, which does mean that even if you do have experience and skills, you still pay for it. Therefore you have to invest not only in yourself but also see where you are doing it, choose a good platform, you can also try platforms like : edX where you still pay for the certificates tho but many free courses are available there.

- research
- choose a nice course
- get good experience
- invest in a degree
- get internships

The key to obtain profit is to help someone fix their problem.

This applies to life in general, but in this forum there are multiple people that need many different things.

Your job is to basically identify these people, check exactly what they need, see if you are able to solve it for them, and calculate how much profit you can generate given your current skills.

If you go to the services section you'll find heaps of people asking for help.

Sometimes it might not be worth your time to help them, sometimes it is. That's up to you to estimate based on your current skills. Also, if you get better at something, then that can turn into a profitable thing eventually.

Keep getting better at solving problems for others and you'll be profiting more and more over time.

As of now we've got more services being offered in exchange for bitcoin. Through the forum one can meet all his needs fulfilled with cryptocurrency. This means living with cryptocurrency is possible. Earlier in an article read about a family spending their life travelling all around only with bitcoin and no fiat. It was years back, and by that time there is no big acceptance as now. But they managed to fulfill the dream, and those kind of persons will get clear picture through our forum.

From this part of the forum, what I feel is from having no capital at all, then getting prizes and having capital to invest and trade, even though trading is still in the learning stage, but from investment I can already feel the benefits, so that it can meet the needs of an increasingly expensive and feel self-sufficient after getting to know crypto

seems trivial but this seems to be true and something like this is happening now, whatever skills we have all of them have considerable potential for profit.
But of course these skills must be accompanied by desire and hard work at the beginning first.
Because it will feel useless if we have many skills but are too lazy to realize these skills to become financial gains.

How to transform a skill into profit?
First,your skill must be in demand.What the point of learning a skill,which nobody needs?
Second,just practice and keep practicing that skill until you become good enough.
After that,keep failing until you succeed at building good long term relationships with a bunch of repeat customers.You may get some new customers along the way.The old customers might recommend you to the new customers.The core of every business are repeat customers.You will fail,if you rely on one time buyers.
Build a portfolio of your best work and showcase that portfolio to anyone interested.
In webdesign and logo design,your work is your best advertisement.

Skill is what you do subsequently and no how what you are desperate of can't give you profit in return, except you are not perfect in your area of specialisation in your skill, transformation of skill to profit can be achieved from how interested and serious you are into the skill you claim to acquire, if trader of cryptocurrency is not curious to know when Market is against them how would their know their profit, in summary whatever you do ensure to take it serious

I studied literature in college, then I realized I could make money by writing if I could just find a job like that. Then I got into crypto and found several people who wanted to hire writers. I had some small jobs here and there but then finally got into my final job that I have been working for nearly 5 years or maybe even more if you consider the earliest time we started together but I gave a break in 2017. So all in all writing is definitely a good job, you can't write like I am writing here, you need to check your grammar and be good at it, but in the end you can make a living out of this.

Of course, if you are living in USA or UK then it won't be enough, but if you are living in a nation where 500-600 even 700 dollars could be considered a living wage? Then you can certainly do it and I am hoping to do this until I retire, that way I will always be doing the job I love.

There are so many skills that can be transformed to money which many persons are still skeptical of. Don't be surprised that those skills that well think at nothing are the one that are becoming valuable in the society.  We learn, gain skill and use it to acquire money that can be use food taking care of ourself. We don't have to gain the trending skills, we can always s maximize the one we have and make use of it to bring great value.

Skills is something you should acquire and hone it for you to benefit it out and this isnt talking for a short term because skills is something that you do

acquire and able to master it out and you would able to use it on means which you could make income or money which helps at least on your living.

Or able to acquire and save up money for investment purposes and any via other means.

In the past, I admit to being a little of a know it all. For those who overthink things and want to be accurate on topics. Gambling and market trading could be two areas worth pursuing. For those like myself who used to think of themselves as being smart and right about things. That might be a skill that can be monetized in sports gambling. With a higher than average accuracy on calls.

I'm also in the process of monetizing gardening skills for profit. I have seen $60 listings for very small lemon trees posted locally on craigslist. I started out buying seed stock. Growing them into plants, which will hopefully end up being small trees I can eventually grow fruit from, or sell if needed. There's a short list of things I'm growing for food which can perhaps be sold later, if a food crisis similar to 2020 develops.

A lot of people get caught up in hype and buzzwords. Monetizing skill doesn't have to be flashy or trendy. Its only a matter of playing to basic fundamental strengths and recognizing opportunities that can be seized easily without a large amount of investment or risk.

I also think that each of us has definitely individual skills, its just that some of them were ignored and won't even have chances to get nourished. But if you are good enough to think that your skills can bring profits on your part, then you should learn to develop it more and enhanced because that will also reflect the worth of your rewards or profits in the long run. As long as you love what you are doing, then you will most likely to improve it not just for yourself but also for others to be utilized and make profits. 

That depends solely on the supply and the demand. If there's demand for C++ programmers and there are really few, it's understandable that they'll have a high income. Likewise, if there's not much demand for truck drivers and there are many, they won't have a high income.

Note that I'm referring to active income. Passive income is the one which will return you high profits. You should develop a skill that is in favor of your passive income.

I think that I just love what I do.

I'm sure everyone has their own skills and it's much better when those skills are used to make a profit,
but not everyone can manage his skills and it's really a pity,
what you say is true they need to learn to develop it and it takes a definite intention

Everyone must have advantages and disadvantages, in those advantages there must be expertise. If everyone is able to realize what and where the skills he has, he certainly will easily turn his skills into profit. since last few years i like to make short videos and love to edit videos, and i want to turn my skills into profit by becoming a youtuber and participating in bounty. Of course this is not the end because I am still developing my skills in making videos and editing videos.

I turned a weekend hobby into a skill and then I turned professional and I started to sell my skill for profits. I do not want to say too much about it or I might doxx myself... but it involves some writing skills and a lot of art.

It started small..after someone saw my stuff and it grew bigger and bigger and now I can make some profits from my work. I cannot do it full-time because it will not pay the bills.. but I am working on it.  ;)

Unfortunately, our chances of defining our expertise and development are extremely small, some people are lucky and fall for the coincidences to be able to define their potential while many others are too old to make the transition of these skills, besides, the world is full of similar talents and expertise, sometimes our skill is unique but useless, sometimes it will be a skill duplicated too many times. As well as your content development and editing skills, which are very popular and although potentially profitable but when too many themes have been built before, it will be difficult for you to convert to profit

The crypto space is vast, and we're fortunate to have such a platform where we can put our skills to work. It's incredibly satisfying to discover that you can make money while honing your abilities in crypto; it really opens up a lot of doors for us, and it's the appropriate platform for us.

Actually, I gained money by putting my services here, so it's a huge assistance to me, especially if you're well-known here, because everyone will want to try your service.

Different skills can be used here, check the services board, a lot of different services.

You are right and one of the most interesting parts is that you do not even need to try that hard, if you are actually doing something that you like then you are going to be better than the average worker doing the same job simply because you enjoy what you do and you are willing to spend more time perfecting your skills.

This will give you an advantage by being more skilled than them and be able to charge more for your services, it is because of this that choosing something that we like is important as then it would be easier to distinguish yourself among the rest of your peers.

If we can continue to develop the skills we have, it can be very helpful to be able to generate profits. Because in any case people who have
the knowledge and skills are much easier to make money. So we must not stop learning to be able to develop the skills we have, because if
we don't develop the skills we have, we can lose to compete with others. Especially in a situation like now where it is very difficult to find a job,
we must work hard to develop the skills we have. Do the best we can to develop skills, so that we can really maximize the skills we have.

Would really be just sensible for you to develop your skills because you do know that you could really be having that advantage
which it would really be a normal step for you to take and mind off which is to enhance to make yourself to be better
and having chance on getting hired or get some jobs if you do apply since you are professional on something like that.
So do all your best on having these skills and having more w ould be an advantage.

Except if you kind of not sure of yourself. If you started small and someone saw your work and liked it then showed it to someone else and you got more patronage then you can be better on it, expound and employ more hands you see at the end of the day you turn out to be an employer not just an artisan but some master teaching others and getting paid for doing what you enjoy doing. What you need is more zeal to your hard work and you can make it bigger.

If you are still starting to improve your skill, then expect that the profits will also start with a little amount and eventually turn it into a bigger and massive one once your skill has been perfected and already created a huge interest on the part of your clients. You have to keep improving your skill through utilizing it more often because as time goes by, your skill will turn out into an expertise. And with the expertise you have, that will lead into attracting more interest which in the latter part, will reward you through good profits.

In my opinion, what's more important is need to be profitable with our talents. Profit doesn't necessarily mean earning more money, it is putting the talent into good use and achieving results that's good and beneficial to society/others.    I use mine independently and I do not stop until result is achieved. I honestly don't expect rewards from those my talents benefit because that can't be guaranteed. I get the rewards from the GIVER of the talents.
I actually have couple jobs i earn from in this manner.

Learning to know and learning to develop the skills that we have is certainly something that is quite good but the average person will be confused when asked what expertise is in what field.
This is not without reason, They are confused by their strengths because they do not dig deeply about the skills they have. If they are serious, I don't think something like this will happen, but the problem is that we try too much of something new and forget the goals we want to achieve so that one competency has not been completed, we have created something new.

That's how it is and it goes back to ourselves how we manage skills,
don't feel complacent with the skills we already have and keep improving them,
The more skills you have, the greater the opportunity to make a profit

skills and talent have the potential to be profitable especially at this time NFT projects can help to sell one of your skills and this is an opportunity to earn profits that should not be wasted

It's really good to invest on yourself first before anything else. Your knowledge, wisdom, and skills are very much important and can be utilized in so many ways for you to profit from it. The process of making yourself better in different fields and crafts isn't a waste of time, money, and effort. You could use your skills to generate income. Some even made it possible to become their bread and butter. It's really just about how you do it and how you strategize.

Given the modern age that we are in right now, a lot of seminars and studies are up either in physical classes or online. What you got to do is to grab the opportunity and enrich yourself. I have read and heard several testimonials already about making your skills and crafts into something enjoyable and at the same time, money-making. And what fascinates me more about each time I hear transforming skills into money generating way is that they got to control their schedule which means they still got to do what they want whenever they want. Most of the time, this is common in the freelancing world. The people there either have natural talent which is inborn, or they honed their skills to make a living. Knowing what your niche is would be a good thing to acquire clients and projects. By using your skills and talents, you experience happiness and fulfillment at the same time, you earn money. It's a win-win situation.

I am not sure exactly what you're asking here but I'll give it a shot..as a financial advisor I've spent years studying markets/rules/regulations etc that have made me a good investor and someone who's been able to help out others for years.  Having these "skills" is something that I continue to build over time as the financial markets are not easy to "master", if anyone does such a thing.  So knowing investing principles have helped me make money as well as others.

Does that mean if you are a bartender, NFT projects can help to sell your skill? How and to whom?
I think the NFT is not relevant to the topic but relevant if we are talking about altcoins and since the topic is all about skills, you should share some of your skills that you turn into profit.

Trading for example is a skill that you can use in the market. Some people have different skills on their own so it's just up to them on how they would monetize it by offering their skills or results, such as drawing, painting, or digital art. You can be a programmer if you are a computer literate and so on.

Well, if you got a good trading skills, that will certainly lead you to a huge profit. Because we all know that trading crypto is the fastest way to accumulate profits, once you are already good and expert in it. Also, the fact that you have skills in some crypto jobs like a translator or a financial advisor, if you can improve it and utilize in a more positive way, then all your skills will definitely turn into profits. It does not matter how small or big the value, as long as you are making an income out of it, then you are still considered profitable.

Having skills and experience would really be putting you on advantage compared into those who havent and thats the lead you do have compared to others which you would mostly get hired or something when you are really that having the edge.

It would really be just normal for you to utilize those advantage for your benefit and also this is a continous learning and gaining experience
because theres no such thing about pinnacle in terms of trade.

That's nice to hear from your end about stories from one of an anonymous person like me, well my stories isn't that broad to share but it may sound interesting to others who still wanted to learn cryptocurrency. At first start crypto was just a piece of information, which my buddy used to share his ways of earning money. Secondly, I used to participate in the discussions gathering some knowledge absorbing every thoughts and principles from expert forum members. Lastly, managing my earned tokens and coins, learning how to trade also keeping it safe at my wallets then all the process towards converting it into fiat in order to spend for my personal needs as well as using funds in building my own house.

Simple thing that we can transforming skill to profit, if you are good at translator, there are a lot of translate bounty, you can doing it solo or maybe with your friends to get best result. In past i joined my friend to join translation campaign, then we help each other to correct the result already good or not, and then if both of us already satisfied, we submit our task to managers.

While this makes sense as a translator given the abundance of translation bounty opportunities on this forum, the issue is the competition and also how to build your reputation given the sheer volume of translators who have already established a name. I believe the thread's point is to highlight a skill, such as programming or something similar, that you can learn online or offline. Typically, we acquire these skills after graduating from college, and they serve as our primary weapon in securing a job that generates revenue.

That there are no platforms for you to work doesn’t mean that you just sit around until you forgot the skills you have learnt. You can still be doing some personal projects to be refreshing your memory, so that you wouldn’t forget everything that you have learnt. And by doing so you are also creating projects that can as well serve as a sample to your potential clients, who might get interested based on the sample that they have seen and decide to hire you for the job. It all depends on the type of skill that you have learnt, if your skill is the type that you can offer on freelancing websites, then you should check them out and start seeking for opportunities there.

But, one thing you must know is that everything is a process, and it requires patience for you to get to that level you would want to get. You don’t just start immediately and become successful overnight, it takes hard work and patience for you to get there. I know it is always not easy, because I’ve also been through that part, I learnt photography and it wasn’t easy.

At the times when I had no job doing, I just focused more on acquiring more knowledge on photography to develop my skills further. It took me time but now I’ve gotten to the level I am meant to be at this point, and I also believe that in the nearest future to come I will be more than what I am today. Also, we shouldn’t forget to be part of investments and also try to have our savings as well. These things can be helpful at times.

There isn’t a place where it is easy. Even if you learn programming, it is not going to be easy for you to secure a job in that area. Programming is even one of the areas where there is a lot of competitions, there a are so many people with this skill and competing for jobs everywhere online, and companies are always looking for the very best that they can get and are not ready to just settle with any programmer that they can come across.

So if you keep looking at the rate of competition there is, you will end up not learning anything at all. Before learning any skill, the first that we should be asking ourselves is whether we love the particular skill that we are about to learn. If you really have passion for that skill, then you can go ahead and learn it. Always do things that you have passion, because your passion the only thing that will keep you going even at times when it is difficult.

Right. A skill without passion is useless because you can't maximize your skill if you are not totally attached in it. So if you have developed your own skill, make sure to use it more often with love and passion because that will make it more appealing to the people particularly to your clients. If they see your skills have high potentials to transform into profits, then it will also reflect on your personality as a good and expert one. If you can utilize it for the good and benefit of everyone, then i guess that will be more fulfilling in your part.

agree, what make people grow is how much experience he gain. passion will give you convenience in every way, because you love what you do, no matter what. when you can make salary from that thing, that is a good job for life, because we can turn job into money cause of passion. race with other people is obstacle, to make sure that your knowledge is great than other.

my friend like about editing stuff, he start learning and join in company that relate about it. now, he is really enjoy and expert on that field.

There are a lot of marketplaces to offer skills for profit. It's that, every skill that you may offer, there's already tough competition for it.
But cheer up to those people that are struggling with the competition, you only have to be patient and keep looking for a way to monetize your skills. Every expert started from the lowest that they've felt the same thing as a newbie. Only the best never quit and they'll eventually get what they deserve, not just from having that skill but also from profiting with it.

I was very good at writing and reviewing books, but that skill in me became dormant until I was introduced to bitcointalk by a friend few years ago. Through Bitcointalk I have transformed that skill to profit.

Actually, it's not only me who can develop the skills to make profit, everyone can do it too. Most importantly there is a strong desire from us
to develop the skills we have. Because developing skills is not an easy thing to do, I also do it full of struggle. Not only do we sacrifice the time
to be able to develop the skills we have, but sometimes we need to spend money to be able to develop the skills we have. One of them is
by taking courses, it is quite effective in maximizing the skills we have, but we know the cost of the course is not cheap. Like you said we really
need to do our best to be able to develop skills, so that the skills we have can increase significantly.

I can't state a specific one but as we all know, our skills especially in trading are automatically released without even realizing it. What I mean here, our instinct tells us when is the right time to buy or sell. Admit it, most of the people here are lucky on that part without actually analyzing what charts are telling us.

Since it's luck others will say it's not a skill. You guys are wrong there. It's not about luck but we see "something" why we executed that action. That's our skill, determining what will be the actions in a given scenario. It came from our experience of continuous trades.

I do handicrafts. I am quite skilled on it, and have been creating pieces for years now. I've had some colleagues and friends who constantly ask where I get my purses and keychains from, and how much each one's worth. That is where the pitch comes in hand and since then, whenever someone wants a personalized keychain, purse, or any other thing that my hands can create, I'll just offer up a price and they'd pay upfront. It's just a hobby and skill turned into something that I can earn from, and honestly one of the best gigs since I can see the appreciation from my clients once they received what they ordered.

We wouldn't able to realize those skills we do have unless we do try nor try to enhance them when you do see some potential.It is true that it could really be a financial support thing if you do know on how to monetize those skills or take advantage of it and its up to someone whether they do focus or simply
made it as a side job on what they are currently doing.

Skills could give you advantage most of the time.Some might be recognized and some would really be just good to keep it for yourself because

one day it could really benefit you out. Not all people would possess the same skills so better be wary of it.

    Having a skill is a gift from God especially if we had online sales we're able to do some extra income to our skills. To that person who is scared to show their talents and skill don't waste your time to show skill so that it can, it helps you to earn money. Having a skill can change our life also.

You chose an interesting topic to discuss on this forum which is very close to my heart and it is true that marketing/Monetizing your skill and knowledge is real challenge which some people meet with little effort because they have natural skills of marketing. I think communication skill play very important when it comes to sell your product or skills and it requires proper training and efforts to build this skill.

Not only for selling communication skills are also very important for many things and useful for any business,
not easy for sure and not everyone has communication skills,
need to practice it regularly to get used to it

skills are always learned by traders. sometimes trading strategies have in common, skilled or not the way they open trades is based on their own analysis. how do we talk about skills if the knowledge of market movements is still very minimal. so for me skills are our own based on trading knowledge and experience.

Let's see. I was once a local translator doing bounties. I don't use deep local words and just translate it in a simple matter compared to other translators that use a literal translation of each word on the statement. I think that skill is working on call center before enhancing my translating skills so every of my translation is composed of a mixed local language and English.

To others, don't be shy showcasing your skills. There's a Service section in the forum where you can post your skills and be paid with a crypto or whatever you desire.

As for me, the main problem is the limited opportunities that would match our skills. Sometimes the competition is too high that we couldn't meet the high demand of skills that's why continuous acquiring of skills is an advantage. A person who acquires skills should also be hardworking and have the eagerness to look for more opportunities to make money and profit from the acquired skills.

One of my skills is to be able to quickly study information and apply the information received in practice. This is primarily due to the advertising of crypto currencies and crypto projects. For several years now, this skill has helped me find, quickly learn and take part in various crypto projects, which ultimately brings me my main income at the moment. There are other skills that previously also helped me to very quickly start earning in different directions, and all these skills have always brought me profit.

True, a talented about threaders mostly have skill change to be earned so normally any change is along with income and benefits, most people have success skill but they don't use it in a significant angle whole life more  in all the knowledge learned will not be lost and will not be forgotten after a few decades the knowledge of the people even if it is not completed achieved is like graduating from a high college.

We all have skills but it's easier to improve your skills if you work on your passion.

My skills are within the internet thing, any opportunities related to internet is where I'm interested at, and I'm happy that I'm getting good results as I have used my skills to start a business and it's already paying me passive income now. Learning how to be a business-minded person is also very important because as you improve your skills, you also improve your financial status in life with the profit you are making.

Work on something where you do comfortable with and dont force yourself in doing something which is really out of your passion or interest because it wont just work for long term and i agree on that one because you wont really be that much effective or efficient if you do work on something where you dont like or you had just been forced into.
We do have each skills but it would be needing for it to be polished to make it something more better and beneficial for you on earning income or side one.
So its up to someone whether they do choose up something that they do like or would go to the opposite path.

skills that are supported by the current developments are becoming more perfect with the current conditions and trends. and of course knowledge will continue to grow and we must as much as possible to improve our skills so that it can run in harmony with the times that occur. that way we will survive even though the times are changing

Yes, I agree with both of you because if we can use the resources properly, we will have the opportunity to improve ourselves and that can be the way for us to have better. Passion, skill, and learning without stop will support us to grow and that will give us more chances to make money. Once we can get the right way to make money, we will have the chance to have passive income so we can reduce our time to work because the money will flow to us.

Skills are the best weapon of man's success and it's been a proof in what industry we are into and we cannot deny that it will help us make money because of set of skills. In this industry as well, it is an astounding accolades to have those skills in trading, reading TA's and even having a diamond hands for is a skills to behold to.

To become a translator you most likely have taken special education, therefore it is only natural that a translator gets the highest paid in this forum. the only problem you face is that each translator campaign only requires one translator for one language, in other words you also have the most intense competition among the other campaigns.

Skills are something that you can do. It is your ability to do a job or task in order to earn. It will be your driving force towards your success in life. Along with continuous learning and acquiring knowledge, you can continue to develop your skills and abilities towards your goal in life. Like in crypto, if you have trading skills, it will be easy for you to earn money through trading. And for continues learning, your ability and skills in tradingwill also increase.

I can only agree with what @Mirakal said because the best way to transform one's skill into profit is to understand how to be a business-minded person because there's always an available opportunity on the internet and only the early bird which is business mind person always flourished.

actually to become a translator does not have to take special education (but most people use this method). My friend can become a translator because he often reads English comics and English cartoons. My friend can be a translator because she often reads English comics and watches English animated films. even now he is also a translator on a tour and makes quite a bit of money.

The "motivation" is what I call people like you have. Maybe it is not really a "skill" that many people could understand it can see but it is really a very important one. If I had the motivation to work 16 hours a day non-stop without ever giving a break or have absolutely no problems continue to do the same quality work the same way, I would be filthy rich by now.

I have to give breaks even if I do not "need to" because otherwise I do my job horribly, and I want to do very high quality work, hell I am leaving money on the table and earning a lot less than what I can just because I want to do better quality work. I rather earn less and be appreciated then work more and be fired or just simply do a bad job. Motivated people in crypto could apply for many jobs, get a few of them and then work 16 hours non-stop doing them all. That way you could literally make thousands every month.

I have checked and I found that there were about 1.5k to 2k dollar worth jobs every day for someone who is willing to work 16 hours a day for 30 days a month, that is a huge amount in most nations. Only motivated enough people can find those jobs and not get fired.

But you still need to learn how to transform into a business-minded person because that can support you to have more knowledge about the business you want to do and, of course, that can improve your skills and knowledge. We can think about how to grow our business, see the opportunity around us, and use it for our benefit. Becoming a business-minded person needs time and more learning and effort to change our lives and that will not stop even if our business is already growing.

Thanks for defining skill for me, I was worried that I don't exactly know the meaning behind it and that it's significance to the topic, but for real though, why would you post that in a thread that obviously doesn't ask what the definition of skill is but I digress, I think that not all skill should be profitable, some just needs to be fun and helpful to you to a certain, of course profit is helpful but there's more to human than just making money, I don't have any good skill developed yet that I can make money off but a little patience and I will someday be able to reap the profits of hardwork in focusing in learning those skills.

To be able to have the ability to speak English or other languages, we can indeed take many things, of course,
to my knowledge the most are watching movies and playing games and both are quite effective,
but to become a translator, it seems that we not only know and can speak English or other languages but we have to be really experts

your statement as I experience now, I do not have sufficient skills, especially in the world of trading, but I am enthusiastic to learn and continue to learn, although until now I have not been able to make satisfactory money, but it is patience that makes me believe that in the future I will get results from this learning process, because I think knowledge investment is also important

Many cryptos users are still finding it difficult to acquire a good skill that will enable them to make a good profit in the future. Those that acquired some favourable skills in the community are really doing well today in the environment.
Here are some of the skills you need to acquire to become a profit making in the community:
1- Experience is one of the skill that can raise you from zero profit making to higher profit making in the market.
2- Research is another skill you can acquire to become a successful business man in the community.
3- Information is another skill many cryptos investors use to make profit in the market. They pay attention to any information they got from the forum to know the steps to take that will bring good news to their investment.

Agreed, I believe I saw a post on a social media platform that said there are two HR departments, one that wants to hire a degree holder but is somewhat rude, and the other that wants to hire an employee based on their patience, willingness to learn, and overall respect for you. The conclusion is that no matter how advanced your education is, it is useless if you are rude. It's as if your perseverance and hard work could make you wealthy.

The importance of skill in trading is not to lose the money we invest. Skills must be complemented by knowledge and good financial management. Most people who have trading skills are able to regulate their emotions in opening trades and closing trades. They are not in a hurry, so they can analyze the market well.

I agree with you but before anyone can transform into a business-minded person she needs to have passion for what she's doing and have a certain or else knowledge won't be enough and to make the person achieve her purpose.
I am saying this because I have seen some people who have the needed knowledge but later quit half-way

In this day and age people put too much weight to credentials as they do not want to evaluate by themselves how capable someone really is, and many would be employees do the same, but there is a reason that if you want a job you still need to do an interview with the one that is hiring, and that is they need to see how you behave.

There are people that are extremely talented but that are incredibly toxic and you do not want to hire a person like that, as a you only need a person like that to completely ruin the mood of an office, so besides the skills necessary to actually perform your job you also need to ability to work with other people and be on friendly terms with them, and if you cannot do that then getting a job will bee difficult regardless of whatever credentials you may have.

because in a job it does not only require one's skills but also an attitude that must be maintained properly so that at least communication within the team can run well.
but actually only a handful of people actually make it happen because basically what I feel right now doesn't really care about the attitude that is there, don't care about the attitude that is directed at doing something in the office, for example as long as we do it correctly and quickly then it can be said to be good

I am not entirely sure if that is every place, but I know that most people will not act rude when they are trying to get hired, even if they are a rude person they will be on their best behaviour when trying to get hired. Which is why I believe that we are in a situation where we need to accept the fact that sometimes we are just not the best candidate for a job.

For the past 5 years I have been doing the same job and I love my job, sometimes people who know what I do for living end up wanting to work with me, and they send me some things to do in order to hire me because in my line of work, you get hired by doing an example job. 99% of the time I reject and do not do the tests, it just doesn't worth it if you ask me because I do not believe that I would be happier in some other job, I love mine right now and other jobs do not feel alright to me. So even companies could get rejected sometimes, it is not about anything hidden.

I think the skills we have will show after we have the knowledge, besides that we can also have skills from the habits we do. as well as trading skills, if we are used to trading and are used to very volatile market conditions, of course we will not feel panicked and be able to control emotions well.

Those who are familiar with trading, of course, have to learn first because if we think it will be very risky when they do not have the knowledge or skills and immediately start trading,
it is very important to understand and learn more about trading because we know for ourselves that the risks are very big

This is a very interesting transformation, if skills acquired will really be transformed into profit. For instance, having basic skills about the entire Bitcointalk forum, you will be able to transform the skills by educating other users in the forum. Also the basic skills might earn you Merit to be qualified to participate in signature campaigns

skill is important thing to make a better end, but this thing is inversely proportional to reality, like in company.
in my place, many people dont have skill but work on some company, after it they are skillful. the problem is when you learn new skill but dont have any place to practice, like you said above, that thing will disappear.
skill can be obtained by learn in the first time, or you do something new, than acquaire that skill.

Yes, the purpose of learning crypto trading is to be able to have trading skills. It is certain that the purpose of possessing skills is to gain an advantage. Skills are very broad, such as skilled strategy, skilled time, skilled management. All about trading being the key to having skills. Everyone has that ability, by continuing to increase knowledge and keep practicing.

In an environment where we all want to win with a limited resources is big challenge. I am talking about the actioms of whale who have privatized trading and make gains to their self. It's always difficult to beat this guys and no matter how good your TA is, fundamental always outshine TA except for when you luckily enter a trade and whales get in later, this is always rare occasions though.
The skill here is hold and be patient enough when others are wanting to sell at all cost.

Dont tend to compete with whales because no matter you do you couldnt really able to beat em up but instead it would be worth if you do just mind on how to act like one and go with the flow as they do make out movements.Yes, it wont really be that easy because we dont even know on when they would make out some move thats why you should really be clever and be vigilant when it comes to moving of prices.

Limited resources would really be putting us out on a situation on where we are restricted on the things we do like that we do have in mind.
Somehow you could really make out some significant actions basing off with your skills.

Even it's not a crypto-related skill.

There's such a vast market for skilled people not only in the physical market but in the online market and gig economy. As you're saying, it's about looking for the right marketplace where you can offer your skill.

And finding the right people which is the target market that you're going to work for.

There are lots of good skills that can earn you good money from home. I took about six months plus to learn about photography and after learning everything about it, including photo editing, I decided to also offer services online. And today I can tell you that has been one of the best decisions I made for myself.

It took me time of course, but I later started gaining from it. Created an account on Fiverr and set up my Gigs, and things has been moving perfectly as planned. Although I wouldn’t say that it is an easy thing, but everyone needs to have skills that they are very good at, and not just one, you can learn as many skills as you want to and they are going to be helpful to you later on.

Can you please mention the type of writing jobs you say you are currently doing now which you have learned for over 5 years? Moreso, I don't think there is any signature campaign that will you up to $700 for a month even if you a legendary except chipmixa.

Learning skill is one thing and making money from the skills you have learned is another big issue. I have learned programming language and it has earned me money.

Honestly i do made out some self regrets on why i havent focused out myself when it comes to programming course but instead had focused more on criminology but somehow i didnt really have that much of a regret but my interest is on IT industry or some sort in connects with programming and look at on where we now on which it is really relevant for such skill and in demand when you do have such
knowledge and skills. Of course you would really be minding on applying those skills on getting a job for some income.

Well, from my point of view, skill can be understood in any way that can be used to its advantage. That should show up quite a bit at different levels, some suitable for in-depth chart analysis, trading, or finding combinations that provide the right tools and signals for trading with project investment. There will be many suitable and creative variations based on each person's aspect. Anyway, I think it's hard to find anything oddly perfect. Others will just wait for Elon to tweet. Lol

This isn't true. There are lot of platforms to practice your skills and offer your services. You just aren't looking at the right place. You can also sell your skills on this forum and make "profit" from it. Head over to the marketplace and create a thread on the Service child board. Make sure you make a proper thread and show what you have to offer. You might eventually attract people to hire you. Or there are lots of other website where you perform online gigs and get paid. Google will help you find the appropriate platform.

The skill exists because there is a field, this is the common mindset of people in this life.
Some people may think differently about the skills that they have. Someone with certain skills will always develop and also implement the skills in any case, searching for the right options to make their skill applicable and advantageous. Of course, the aim is to earn money or even only to do something good and wellness.
But if someone is not exactly open-minded, they will only wait for the platform to implement the skills, and if they don't have the goal, they will let the skill go away. It is only about the choice of what we are doing to do. Sometimes, someone with no skill will be developing their own skills while working in some certain field also.

The best skill to learn is trading skills.

The fact that we are here in crypto space, we should put more time to learn as that will improve our skills. think of consistency as only skills can bring that to us, making profit is always our goal, but without skills that would not be possible. When you are focus in trading, you have a good chance of improving, and when you improve you'll likely become profitable. Just imagine, if you can be consistent, nothing would stop you as making money here is limitless.

It is a way to maximize our knowledge and by trying trading might not be sure it gives us success or not, but at least, we even try it, who knows?
But actually what we did now in here is something that we make "skill to profit". Yes, it can be limitless as long as you have also unlimited resources, knowledge, and skills. How I wish I could have that... ;D

Anyways, it is something we need to find ourselves where we become comfortable. Trying to maximize our knowledge and skill is great but of course, we don't have to forget about taking care of ourselves then.

Is never too late as you can still go and relearn programming language because the demand for such services is still high but all depends yourself and maybe you currently making some money from whatever you are doing. But if your source of income now is just to participate in in signature campaign here meaning you have everything to regret because the earnings from signature campaign can't in anyway be compared to a programming service you render.

every trader has different skills in trading, market dynamics make us always correct small mistakes so that skills are formed that make it easier for us to trade. The goal of having skills is to gain an advantage in the market, there are many stages that must be passed to have skills that are effective and efficient.

Transforming your skills into profit is the actual skill. Many people are having a lot of skills but they are not having any direction or a platform to utilize their skill to gain profit while some are those having little skills but they know how to get benefits from it so they utilize it to earn more money.
So try to utilize the skills in the correct way to earn a lot

It's not a big issue earning from the skill that you've learned. What you need to do is just to make sure that you're at least average on that skill and you're good to go to apply and offer that skill to the others.

Just make sure you're in the right market before asking people to take and use your skill because that's the issue. Where you're selling yourself and marketing it on the wrong market place is going to be the problem.

I would say that learning a programming language is not something that is easy to do, even relearning it is not easy and but it would be great for you in crypto or out of crypto world. You could always find a decent job anywhere around the world if you are a great software developer, you could get hired by some people and make a lot of money and earn a good salary, while you do that then you could go online and search for crypto jobs as well and build stuff for people too.

Designers are like this as well, I do not know if the demand for a good designer is high in fiat world but I am sure it is better than nothing and you could also design NFT's and sell them to make a great return as well. If you have neither of these, then you could always offer up your "time" and participate in many projects and be active in them and find jobs in those communities.

I agree that increasing knowledge and skills is very important to be able to make a profit. But it must be done in a good way and not to harm others.
We must remember that humans are social creatures, so don't be selfish thinking about our own interests, and also be wise to think about other
people too. It's true that we are our top priority, but don't forget the people around us. The ideal is to develop skills to  benefit us and others around
as well. Indeed, the practice is not easy, but it never hurts to try. Because if we can be useful to others, it will be much better than we managed
to generate a lot of profit for ourselves.

Am currently trying to get ride of a mind set that is late for me already to learn additional skill which will be of help for  me in the future and seeing your advise gives me hope that is never too late. In short, I set aside some my money and start to learn maybe programming language at Udume or do you have a place to recommend for me please since I know anyone who will teach me one on one.

It's because some of the skills are needed in crypto like casinos so they share some demo of their skills and once accepted they can now earn crypto from casinos because of their skills. Some are selling the complete results of the thing they work like making signatures for signature campaign, banners and many more.
