I've learned from @boobs4bitcoin 's experience. I really like what she (I assume she is a she, but I don't really know for sure) is doing with her daily quotes.
I Resteemed a couple of her more recent quotes (like here and here), but Steemit only lets us Resteem stuff that is about 7 days old or less.
For content older than that, I have found that I have to link to it or quote it in a blog post of my own, as I am doing now.
I try to be careful not to plagiarize, but one of the main reasons that I Resteem is so that I can easily find the content again. And after all, quotes are, by their very nature, not original.
Nevertheless, one of the things I like most about what @boobs4bitcoin is doing with the quotes is that she is adding value to them by sharing them along with a relevant image.
So what I am going to do with this post is just repeat the quotes that I like and want to remember but add a link to @boobs4bitcoin 's original posts. I believe that this kind of re-posting with links back to the originals actually helps to promote the work of the original blogger, and should therefore be appreciated by the original blogger.
Furthermore, it is a true act of curation for other Steemit readers, as I am only reproducing the quotes that I like best.
So here goes. Here are the quotes that I like:
"Life is too short to be living somebody else's dream." - Hugh Hefner

"Ignore the stock market, ignore the economy, and buy a business you understand." - Warren Buffet

"The best investment you can make, is an investment in yourself...The more you learn, the more you'll earn." - Warren Buffet

That's all I have time for right now. Maybe I'll post more later.
Also, @boobs4bitcoin has inspired me to go out and find my own quotes (OK, if they're quotes, whose are they really?)
I want to close with a question for @boobs4bitcoin, if she's seeing this: May I have your permission to re-post your quotes, exactly as you have presented them, in other locations (e.g., Pinterest and Facebook), provided that I include a link back to your Steemit blog? I believe that would be a good way to not only promote your blog, but to bring additional traffic to Steemit as well.
As always, please remember to follow, upvote, resteem, reply, share, and promote. Thanks!
