<p>When expectations rise, but the results don’t show…</p><p>What next?
</p><p>When life tosses us around with illusions of positivity
</p><p>What next?
</p><p>How can we rise again when we fall?
</p><p>What more can we do to make it big?
</p><p>When books, friends, and family fail
</p><p>What next?
</p><p>How do we get back on track when we run out of course?
</p><p>When we see ourselves in the ugliest of situations,
</p><p>We wait, we cry, we seek earnestly for salvation
</p><p>But find none.
</p><p>Oh… how can we get back up?
</p><p>When the world, our families, friends, acquaintances
</p><p>oh, even our perky friends
</p><p>look up to us for something great and wonderful,
</p><p>yet we find ourselves stuck in a truckload of failure…
</p><p>Oh, how can we get back up?
</p><p>It’s painful. It’s sickening. It’s demoralizing</p><p>When our expectations are dashed.</p><p>What is the way out?
</p><p>Who can help us out?
</p><p>I write out of pain, real pain.
</p><p>My heart sinks when I think of home: of Mom. Dad. Church. Friends.</p><p>Of course, it shouldn’t be so.
</p><p>But the journey of life feels straight and precise,
</p><p>yet it’s riddled with unpredictable turns.
</p><p>Who knows what lies at the next corner, when we make a sharp turn?</p><p><img src="/media/inline_insight_image/pexels-eyupcan-timur-424989336-23893583.jpg" alt=""></p><p>But listen…
</p><p>There is always a way out of every creepy situation.
</p><p>There is always a way out of every heartbreaking experience.
</p><p>There is always a way out of every torturing habit.
</p><p>Seek the truth and you will find it.
</p><p>Oh… how can we get back up?</p><p><strong>Even in silence, the heart learns to stand.</strong></p><p>

At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to 7 people with the best insights in the past month. The 7 winners are picked
by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
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.
Contributor Rankings
The Contributor Rankings shows the Top 20 Contributors on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis.
The all-time ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly score sums the score on all your insights in the past 30 days. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on TwoCents — these are community members that have engaged the most with other user's content.
