Anything's possible if you set your intentions on winning! 

Much love and keep grinding!

Steem-On brother, never despair.

I had overcome the days of thinking of Taking Steemit as my full job and ditch my real life work as a Business Development executive and as a Co-founder of an IT firm.

Thanks for bringing this up 
Am actually in the same shoe with you , more reason I didn't post any article for almost 5 days now and I decided to take off for a week. 
Combination of blogging and other work activities has been hard on me 
I sleep barely 5hours a day in the last couple of weeks because I have to go to work in the morning , come late in the evening and I still want to perform some other activities and still get a good article posted 
Am not giving up because I know someone was in  a harder situation than I am and survived it. 
My pure advice is not to stop STEEMIT and not to stop your business 
You can combine the two in a logical way and succeed in both 
Its just planning and setting priorities 
Yes you can 
Yes you can do it sir !!!

Wow....amazing boss.

It's not really easy.  Because the country is not helping matters. We don't have a choice to stick on something that we can earn from by maximizing our potentials. We will get there gradually. Thanks to you for supporting us all this while. I use to think that steemit.com is the only thing you do for the day.

I feel your pains. I wont advixe you to forego any, just find a way to balance both.. I know you will still come out strong no matter what, cause your intelligence surpass it all. Steem on boss. The sky is just a stepping stone.

Its not really that easy to decide but my opinion is do not quit your permanent job for now till you have been making consistent revenue with this community and Stay clear of the lure to do anything you could later be sorry for.

Just a few things can be said about all this. 

# Patience
# & 
# Priorities
Before learning how to run, first learn how to walk.

We all are learning.

Its not easy pulling out posts day in day out, but if its sucking all the fun out of you, then is it worthwhile? Relax, post, be **smart**.

Thats all sir @eurogee, thats the advice from the top itself, not me or any curator.

Sighs.... I don't know from which angle to take this. It is really tough on you, and  you have also mirrored my own frustration, my dilemma concerning this steemit stuff. Where is the time? And what do I do to create time?,  without which one will not be able to realise One's full potentials  on this platform. Well,  my candid advice is this: keep your regular job for now , be ready for the stress that will come with it , knowing that doggedness will crown your efforts with success in the long run.  Know when to take it really slow by listening to your  health indicators . Most importantly, apply wisdom in  execution of these tasks. By God's grace, we will all get there one day.

Work life balance will be of great importance in handling this issue.

My Advice, 

This voice of yours is a voice of a determined soul, if not, it wouldn't be sounding this loud, first and foremost, STEEMIT worth been committed too, and at the same time, if reward on steemit are compared to what you earn working for a particular firm, I bet you, you'll want to quit and shot the door off. 

You are a courageous and determined leader of Euronation, even though, **everyone** writes articles that are not fat fetch as we all's hope it'll fetch, should I say time will tell or abnormalities should be corrected? 

*I strongly hope and pray abnormalities would be corrected sooner than later.*

NB: A Popular Icon on steemit told me barely less than 24hrs that; “will you let steemit work you out, or will you work something out of steemit?” this is a question I was unable to answer before he said to me that honourmaus, imagine if steemit is never in existence. 

***As you want to make a big difference, I also want to make a notable one too***

  >>> WE WILL BE SURPRISED SOON

**LET'S KEEP FIGHTING**

I BELIEVE BETTER DAYS AHEAD. 

I'm @honourmaus  Your boy in #EURONATION

You have just nailed the problem a lot of Steemians struggle with including me. The best approach is to strike a balance between the two.  Each should be seen as supporting or complementing the other in the light of the volatility of Steemit earnings. Some posts do so well while some may not especially when one is not a whale yet. For me, the key word is BALANCE!

You're indeed a great man. Keep moving. Nothing comes easy. Together we are great @euronation.

To me you're a success story, you have produced hard-working steemians and you're indeed an awesome person who carries everyone along, I will advise you to set your priorites , scale of preference but never give up on steemit, a time will come when you can sideline your business and face steemit. But for now keep on pushing boss, Again listen to your health and know when to take a breather.

Hi @eurogee, just want to point out a typo in your post.

>@surppassinggoogle

That should be @surpassinggoogle, just one 'p'.

In my view, normal users should not view Steemit like a job. It does require a level of dedication which means sacrifice in other areas of your life, if you want to get serious money out of it. I do think that Steem is good as a casual social media site like Reddit where you use for leisure, but it also happens to give a very small amount of income as well.

Hmmm. Were do you get the money to buy data to work on steemit? If it is from your job it is important for you to continue joggling the two man. If not where will you get the money to buy data? Some of us who are not working know how difficult it is to get the money to buy data. And has you may know the data doesn't last..

What I will advice is that you plan your day.
See how many articles you can conveniently post in a week, it is not necessary you post daily.
And gradually increase. With time you get use to it.
Run a parallel programs on the two for now.

You're doing great man. Ride on bro

I think the trick to handling all this is time management, prioritizing what is most important first. This will help you get through what you need for the day. I have always treated steemit as an 'Extra' as I have seen many users quit their jobs and became homeless when things did not go well on steemit. I would suggest that you keep your job as it is a stable source of income. Steemit as many other cryptocurrencies are very volatile when it comes to the markets and exchanges.

Hmmm, I'd say ; you have to find a way to juggle them both until you have put in place all measures to be successful on steemit. You'd need to understand fully how steemit works; weigh reward to risk ratio, plan properly and have a clear target before quitting your daily job.

Until then; two income streams are better than one. I wish you great success!

It is not easy for everyone my brother, we just have to merge what our culture forces us to do (the day job), and what we love (steemit). But you are doing great.

It is not really easy for up coming steemians like us because we want to leave good foot prints behind and we must as well survive, but we must always have it at the back of our mind that health is wealth and as such it should be taken with great significance. Do not ever jeopardize your health for wealth or any other thing, remember that it is only the living that can spend money .

This is a tough one truly but i do not see a reason to drop job for steemit. May be in the nearest future it would be a wise decision, but for now let make what we do on steemit a passion that inspire others. Remember, monetary aspect matters as material condition determine our survival. Thanks

What a dilemma bro. I think we newbies are all faced with a similar situation. My advice is that you keep your business while at the same time maintain consistency with steemit. To me, the type of growth in steemit that can stand the test of time, is that which comes gradually through hard work and committment. As you proceed, there is need for you to always assess your performance especially on the area of your articles. The yardstick for measuring growth lies not on the number of articles you are able to post in a week, but on the quality of your articles which is inherent in its level of impact in your audience. Always strive to make your today's article to be better than that of  yesterday, this will earn you dedicated rewarders: herein lies the true growth...gracias!

Hmm... Well said boss, not really easy.. Those moment when u have to minimize steemit tab and replace with your email when a superior comes around you and you show that fake smile 😃, all the same it is not advisable to drop your job at least for now... You can even see the job as another source of inspiration to post ... Lol well done boss... Euronation rocks !!
