I haven't earned much yet, but I still love Steemit! Why? you ask.

 I have been using Steemit for a little over two weeks now and have submitted several posts.  My posts have ranged from a few cents to a few dollars in earnings.  For a lot of people, such earnings are frustrating.  They feel that because they put a tireless amount of work in what they post, they should be paid for the time they have spent. I admit that even at first I felt the same way, I found myself asking "what makes one post better then another?" After several days of reading articles and getting more familiar with the platform and the people who use it, my views have shifted.  The earnings I have recieved for my contributions have never discouraged me as it does with some people who have been very vocal about it.  I am driven to try harder to write better and more meaningful content and continue to contribute to this platform.
