RE: How To Deal With The Discouraging Feeling Of Being Overlooked.. And My Contribution To Solve The Problems!

in #steemit8 years ago

Thank you very much for your comment @stellabelle, I appreciate it. (I appreciate the upvote too obviously)

In fact, yes I have. I do comment on other people' posts but I'm guilty of being a slacker regarding that. I could do it much more often and I will, now when I won't create multiple posts per day myself. I know this is a good way to build followers, get exposure and increase your reputation on steemit, like it would be on whatever social media or internet forum you're on.

That being said, this isn't about not being satisfied. I'm truly satisfied with my experience and I'm happy that I've done so well. Compared to greater authors I'm still a "nobody" but for me, this has been a superb experience and I truly love steemit.

However, I cannot allow myself to fall into the same lions-nest again. I had awesome success in the beginning and I started to focus on the money. That made me doubt myself and my content.. I made it back up again in one piece and I never thought about the potential to make money. I made my posts because I wanted to share them, just like I did when I first started out.. But rewards means way more than money for me..

During the time my writing skills got a bit better and during the time I've shared personal things.. (which I never thought I would do..) the rewards never changed for the better. And yeah, that's a disappointment, but it's not the only reason I came to conclusion that I should stop making multiple post.

I don't have enough time to be on steemit for 15 hours per day. It just doesn't work. And I've been here for 15 hours for the past 4 weeks now.. And personally, it's for the better to make 1 post per day, or every two days.. Instead of 2 or 3 each day. If everyone did that, steemit would be filled with low quality posts.. And I don't want that.
