Nothing will ever bring success if you don't do it for the enjoyment of it first. And IF you do something just for $$ _success_ and not for the _enjoyment_, what a bunch of wasted time on earth!  I do drop off my self, but it's not because of any ups or downs, i don't actually ever look to see if STEEM is up or down.. I do it for other scheduling reasons. I like having a place to write that feels like i'm contributing to something more than just throwing my stories out in the void. good post.. thanks!
