For me, Steemit is an outlet for creativity that's been lacking in my life.
I spent 20+ years solving problems, figuring out and overcoming challenges and developing concepts into material, functional things that people found valuable.
That's not available any more in the form it used to be, so I've started doing this.
If I can use it to pay some bills in the future, that's great.
Persevere and you'll achieve. Creativity is the key
Creativity is my curse, I might as well make lemonade. ;-)
Its a gift
One man's gift... ;-)
