@luminous-nova you already did make a job for yourself by discovering steemit.
Now the things expected of you is hardwork, putting much of your time here and most importantly persistency.
Yes you have to be persistent because some days you might feel like giving up because you ain't getting what you expect here on steemit. But if you are persistent and you are here for the long run, then you would see reasons to continue. Am saying this out of experience..
Also socialize, read posts and comment.
Commenting helps you grow here on steemit bro. That is what helped me to get to where I am now..
Lastly find your niche.
Something you love and enjoy doing, even in hard or bad times..
Making a living online is not just about steemit alone. There are a lot of to learn online that will eventually place you at a higher advantage if being valuable. You can learn programming or the art of writing. Whatever is best for you, dive into, master it, then you'll be able to start creating real values that will help you earn a living.
You've spoken well Ms @ogoowinner..
