Yea it was hard when I first came on steemit. I got .76 cents for a post and I saw this chick get $20,000 for a makeup tutorial. Made me believe that I could not find a "home" here. I didn't even use the platform until 8 months after my initial post. Even then my stuff was pretty low.

For me hip-hop is what keeps me using this site. Plus if you bring people that you know then you all can share and talk about the same stuff. I'm at the point where I might take small breaks just to center myself.

I would say keep at it. Thanks for the comment.
