It definitely does relate to Steem as there may be better ways to utilize your time. But, there is an opportunity cost in that too depending on your wants for the future here. 

When it comes to creating content, I think it is worthwhile to use it like you have your time mowing the lawn, a reflective experience that allows you to order your thoughts and make better decisions. This is valuable in my opinion and something that we rarely allow ourselves unless we create an environment where we automatically do it. For me, that is Steem. It is a meditation, a therapy and an investment rolled into one :)
