THE STEEMIT WILDERNESS PHASE

We all go through a 'Wilderness Phase" in life when resources are scarce and results are little. I was going through that with Steemit.  I was putting so much thought and time on my posts and not earning anything substantial. in as much as I am always telling people to not give up, his time I almost gave up. I am lucky that I had a bank of posts on my computer and All I had to do was hit publish.

But the wilderness phase is there to make you appreciate the good times. If life was just a highlight reel, there would be no highs and lows. The lows make you appreciate the highs and the highs make you enjoy life more.
So even as you go through this crazy wilderness phase when results are low, remember that this will not be permanent. keep working in your slow times. Build during your wilderness phase. Gather as much as you can. Grow your skills. Build connections. Make those posts. Do not tire. Consistency will bring you success in the end.

i get that people get frustrated.  I have felt frustration over putting in a lot of effort and not receiving upvote love.    i just think its missing the point.   its like wrong mental framing.   we happily have spent oodles of time posting on other social media sites with zero expectation of earning....
every time i feel frustrated i say this mantra....steemit dont owe me shit, steemit dont owe me shit.
the reality is that i should pay steemit for sparking my creative juices to want to write and engage again.
thanks for you post...could luck pushing through the wilderness!
