Hello! Steemit is a blogging platform and it would be the best to consider it as "just another" social network. If you are passionate about the certain topic - write about it. It will provide you the non-material benefits per se. If you are investing days into a single post - you are doing something wrong. You also don't have any scientific reference.

Keep in mind that there are about 50 true scientists, true professionals who are writing. The competition is very high. Those people spent not 3 days, but 8+ years to gain the knowledge before starting.

There is also the problem of economics. Your voting power is 2. In order to get 10 $ on the screen (peanuts), you need to be voted with 50000 power?!

I'm strongly encouraging you to stay on steemit. But write about something that suits you perfectly and try to get some Curie votes.
