You bring about some very good points on the Long Term Viability of the STEEMIT platform and how we can discourage NOOBS from giving up if they feel they are not valued for the Content that they produce. The best way to be successful on STEMMIT is to be consistent. Whether you post content EVERYDAY or comment EVERYDAY in a thoughtful and meaningful way. Also you must be willing to put some SKIN in the game and that means you should be willing to make purchases of STEEM. For some people having extra funds to buy more STEEM may not be easy, Nobody said life is easy. You must be willing to sacrifice something else you currently spend money on in order to add to your STEEM account. Enough of my long winded rambling. Just do the BEST YOU can each day, the REWARDS will come..............................
