How can we make better steemit posts? There are many things you can do. Let's get started and get down to business about your steem it posts.

  1. Pace yourself. Take your time. Make sure you plot and plan your ideas out. Now, we need to understand that you don't want to get distracted and completely fall off track. Pace yourself and stay on course.

  2. Avoid distractions. In the world of notifications and other distractions you must block your time with you write. It can be a bit much. You can come back to a post later on if you need too. Turn off notifications.

  3. Block your time. 15 minutes can do more than save you in car insurance. Block your time and make sure that you put time aside for writing. You have to make sure you make time for it.

  4. Plan and outline your writing. Find my other post on outlining a post. You need to plan and put it all together. It is like building a house the plan is the blueprint.

  5. Use the blogging for practice understand that perfectionism is a lie. It is better to be excellent than perfect. Perfectionism breeds procrastination. Good has to be good enough at some point.

A point on perfectionism...
No matter what you try to do, the feelings of satisfaction are fleeting. There's always more to accomplish.
When focusing on perfection writing it can be either black or white- no delineated area of in between or even close. Things in your life are either right or wrong, good or bad success or failure. Tough shit life is full of grey areas. Learn to find the good in-between and understand you are human and not a terminator machine.

One can believe that by only by making it all perfect on the outside will you feel calm and happy on the inside. The problem with this is most will feel quietly judgmental of people who are not full of perfection. Excellence is different than perfect. Remember there are tons of creative works that were never finished.

Be kind to yourself. Be patient.

I found your post useful but I want you to brief me on how to have steem power so that I will move from 0.001 to 100% upvote

Increasing your influence on steemit.com when voting for posts and when posting will also result in an increased income for your actions, time and efforts spent on the website. In order to do that you will have to get more STEEM POWER and there are numerous ways you can do that:

Posting high quality and unique content on steemit.com and voting for other high quality content that gets published, it takes time and effort, but the rewards you get in STEEM POWER directly increase your influence and the STEEM DOLLARS (SBD) rewards you can convert to STEEM and then use them to Power Up converting them to STEEM POWER.

You can use your computer to mine additional STEEM POWER for you, the mining process uses your CPU, so every computer can be used to mine - Guide on mining STEEM with your computer on Windows

It is possible to purchase STEEM or STEEM DOLLARS (SBD) from a crypto exchange such as Poloniex.com or Bittrex.com, then send the purchased tokens to your steemit.com account and and convert them to STEEM POWER

Note that STEEM tokens can be directly converted to STEEM POWER using the Power Up function, but converting STEEM DOLLARS is possible only to STEEM and then you can use them to Power Up to STEEM POWER, however this takes 1 WEEK for the conversion process!
