RE: A Steemit Heart "Steemit Ultimate Challenge 8 Weeks - Week #4"
Thanks for stopping by and taking time to read this post @monchhichi23. That number is one of my favorite numbers #23. I decided to continue this story so stay tuned. Don't ever be disappointed if posts don't pay off. As time goes on I find a lot of time invested here so it should be valuable first to you then it is time well spent. After that others will pick up and follow.
I'm so glad that you and I share love for the number 23, it's awesome to me that sometimes it's the smallest things that connect us. Honestly, the disappointment doesn't come from not getting upvotes, it comes more from me feeling like I have a story to tell, and I believe that my story could possibly help someone who is going through what I'm going through, and being a newbie, it's not reaching enough people. But, I am starting to understand how all of this works, and I know that it takes time. And I am more than willing to put my time in. It's people like you and many other people that I've met so far, that make Steemit such a wonderful place to be. Thank you for your encouraging words, and your awesome posts that allow me and other newbies to have better understanding of the Steemit world. This helps all of us to be successful and that's always a great thing!!
Ah. Keep most of that story for now. Reveal a little bit at a time. At first you should post twice a day something interesting. About a month later people will listen. Make a lot of good comments like this with sincerity and people will reach out to you. Every comment is locked in the block chains and people read them honestly more than your posts or my posts. The comments are where it is at. If you have a story share as a comment to another post. Be free and sincere and keep exploring. You are totally welcome here. I'm kind of a 70s kid but close enough to 80s. I just posted my story if you have time it is the first post on my blog now. Take a minute to read it. I think you will probably have something to share.

I know what you mean @dreemsteem. I feel like the Hobbit ring bearer. I have this powerful ring I carry around and I know how to use it. The more I carry it the more I am sucked into its power. It is called temptation. Today there are several ways people abuse Steemit as it is decentralized. An obvious thing is to start a new account with an attractive introduction, upvote it and make a similar posts a few times and then transfer the earnings to block chain a week later and don't touch it. There are other ways. I have been relatively reclusive this week and I enjoy it. I don't care if a day goes by and I don't get even one comment. I'm taking some time off but still posting once a day. I don't deliberately chase people down or try to promote my posts even on discord. I'm just taking it easy for a while to see who follows me consistently then in a little while when I feel real comfortable with my writing and music and recording I may get a delegation and just upvote that one follower like crazy and upvote myself. That is a less seedy temptation that has crossed my mind. I turn down any seedy temptations which I will not even talk about but am completely aware of. Even if I was never caught I would not do it because I have to live with myself and I know where the money came from.
