ah man telling us that if we dont resteem we will have bad sex for 7 years is nasty, so I had to resteem so I don't get the curse of @tarazkp. Such a pity i couldnt put a comment in the resteem lo.
there are many awesome people engaging on steemit, but the bot activity far out weights the human. If engagement is the hook i fear people will be disappointed when they see the level of bots.
I must borrow this passage from you
"Some are specialized like the developers who understand the code, some specialized in marketing themselves, understanding human nature, observing the interactions or networking. The highest earners here are either early birds, external investors or, specialized in what they do or present in their niche."
I dont get why people think they have a right to great payouts. Just like an actor going to Hollywood shouldn't expect to strike a leading role and get rich and famous over night. I blogged online for a long time before coming to steemit and it took me longer to monetize it. I dont expect to do better on steemit with less effort. I expect to do better with more effort.
I think this is the thing that so many don't get, more effort is required. Too many see a few people earning very highly with minimal input and think that it is possible fora ll. Too many spend their time doing the work they think is right but never exploring what else there is. People spend their time on steemit without realising that there is a whole ecosystem that is not on the chain.
This is the hardest I have ever thrown myself into something yet I have failed to adjust to the code like many others have. You can use a hammer to build a house or tear one down and the code is just a tool. Too many are only seeing the tearing down aspect as the way to use it. Time to try some new ways and see if the long-term potentials can be salvaged. It isn't going to be pretty.
