Hello Fellow LGs,
This is something about earning badges on Connect. Yes, you read it right, the badges can be earned by just living your passion.
Now I have earned Totally Popular badge for receiving 5000 Likes for posting great content on Local Guides Connect. This is my Eighteenth badge on LG Connect.
The last badge (The 17th badge) I have earned for Five-time Connect Challenge Winner for**"Share 
** information on Google Maps to win a Connect badge" on 24-June-2024.
You all must concur with me as I always say, 'such achievement is much much above than getting any Physical Reward’.
Now, this is something fulfilling and satisfactory. This gives the inner happiness.
I have enclosed here two snapshots:
- The first one received through email from Local Guides Connect
- The second one is visible in my profile on Local Guides Connect. So, mine is amongst 237.
Thanks to all LGs and Googlers for their continuous support and guidance.
Feel free to tag me in your post to extend the friendship to the next level. We will learn from each other.
Keep building informed community stronger 
together.
Stay Happy, Stay Healthy!
JAI HO!!!

Congratulations on your newest badge @Kumaarsantosh 
It is always a delight to look back and see how far we have come from where we made a humble beginning.
The first few badges are low-hanging fruits and they come to us without knowing what we are achieving while we are still enjoying posting on Connect and interacting with fellow local guides.
The newer ones are then few and far, while some like Connect Challenge must be earned diligently.
Great going…

You are absolutely right @TusharSuradkar . I am fully in concurrence with your statement:
‘It is always a delight to look back and see how far we have come from where we made a humble beginning…’
I still remember the first badge (Newly Popular) in this series. The very name of the badge itself gives you a kick to move further and look for high-hanging fruit.
And, with the great support from this community, one can go farther and farther ahead.
On top of this, Connect Challenge Badges are icing on the cake.
Thank you so much Tushar for sharing time to read and respond to my post.
