Today I want to talk about why I am becoming a content creator on Steemit. Part of the reason is the reason why I think Steemit is beneficial for its users. Not only does Steemit distribute the profit generated by the site to its users, but it also incentivizes them to become content creators. I think this is great because to many people are living passive lives, scrolling through their feeds and consuming without question. On Steemit, it is possible to do this, however, it makes you very aware of the value of your time and how you could use it for your own profit. This means that instead of spending time consuming, you can spend that time creating. This incentive to be a creator is a gift to the world that Steemit may not have realized it is giving. If everyone in the world focuses on creating more in the world than they consume, we will live in a more productive society.
But that's not all!
The rest of the reason that I am starting to create content is that it is important to learn to put yourself out in the world. The most successful people are those who can do this well. Being good at what you do is only half the battle. Communicating what you do to others is equally, if not more important. Therefore, to become a better communicator, I am going to share my ideas so that I can improve that skill. I would urge everyone to become content creators and to help others improve their content. High standards in a addition to a support network for creators is a great way to improve the quality of our community's productivity.
What you should expect to see
I'm going to start posting content about my area of expertise, organic chemistry, and possibly some life or crypto related posts. Stay tuned!
Great thinking, will stay tuned :-)

STOPI really like this place, I hope you do too! The more the merrier!
It's new, different, and not yet refined. It is exciting to be here.
Agreed. It is a little rough around the edges, but the grand idea is very interesting to me. Hopefully the good guys outnumber the bad guys. Lol. Looking forward to hearing about organic chemistry! Following you. I'm an arm chair chemist. It will be nice to hear from someone who knows what they are talking about.
Not only hopefully the good guys outnumber the good guys, but also hopefully the good guys are putting out more content and curating more than the bad guys. We'll see how it goes :)
Good post....
Hello! I can see your account is somewhat new but this was an interesting read. There is an upvote for you and keep on doing you!
As you are new to steemit and it can be hard for newcomers to boost their steem power so I suggest you to try out @MinnowPowerUp as you can earn up to 30% more steem power than just powering up with steem directly! It's a subscription based daily upvote bot that draws its power from a delegation pool. I have also made this post where I explain my experience with the service in more depth and show how I earn over $1 a day in upvotes.
PS! If you would like to get free cryptocurrency by airdrop then www.powtoken.com is giving away free tokens to everyone who signs up using only a facebook account!
