Hello friends, welcome, welcome to my blog! Today, I had typed a post with a couple of beautiful words that will help your perspective as a Steemian on how to succeed. Okay, the word succeed is a stretch, I'll just use the word persevere cause not everyone succeeds even they persevere.

As everyone knows this platform is facing a lot of challenges, from shameless self voting Steemians(including me), to spammers, plagiarists, to abusive vote buying users. Well, let's face it. Every game that has rules has the word abuse written on it, if Steemit really wanted those things to be changed then maybe they already had made action a long time ago. But no, all we can do is whine and cry out our asses coz we think that life is unfair and of course it is. But look at the bright side, in the darkest part of that fact one thing remains true, Steemit was originally created to connect people's idea and one another, with that said, we should still be grateful that Steemit is still here.
About this post. This post is about having the right mind set in doing Steemit. These are things that you should keep in mind in order for you to gain most of the time. With all that said, let us get into the things that I think every Steemian in the low bracket should keep in mind when doing Steemit.
Tips!
1 Do not compare yourself to other Steemians
Most new comers gets into this trap. They tend to get flashed with @sweetsssj 's or @acidyo 's post for having a big reward for what they post and tend to expect more in the platform. Reading posts that are made by established Steemians are good for reference or for adapting a writing style but comparing your rewards to them or other minnows isn't really healthy. Always remember that these established Steemians had been here since the platform started (or even earlier on the ICO stage). What more to it is they had already endured at least a year of posting and HODLing power for them to be able to get into that position. They deserve those rewards cause they already proved their relevance in the platform. And you might be too someday if you work hard, just be yourself and do not compare your ~shit~ with other Steemians because you are you and they are they. If you feel that you deserve more than where you are right now in this platform then prove it with your posts. I saw people like @ertwro that had been posting long posts for months and having almost no rewards from them, he endured and wrote as his self for a long time. And look at him now, his posts gains tremendous rewards( I just don't know why isn't he posting recently).
2 Write or do contents that you want
This 2nd tip is another important pointer. Doing what you want not only gives more quality to your post, it also gives you determination into posting. This is actually self explanatory, it's just like love, real love tends to make people stick to who they love even though the situation is hard financially, geographically or culturally. Just do what you love so people will know who you are as a person.
3 Keep on striving for perfection
And this hits everything in place. This tip is the most important among them all. Keep on studying and practicing, with this in mind even you do not gain any money out of blogging or doing content, at least you had grown as a content creator. And having knowledge and abilities is the most important thing, not money. People tend to think that if you have no money you incapable. That is actually wrong. Very wrong.
