I'm very prone to becoming discouraged due to comparing my own success/work/post popularity to others around me, so this is definitely a good reminder. I don't find myself constantly obsessing over social medias, but I find it very easy to fall into a loop of worry over a specific post. Which is directly counter-intuitive to how I want to explore this site, since I spend all my brain power thinking about what I'm not doing instead of just posting.
Starting out on a new social media site is also very daunting because I start thinking, "well, I've already made my way on these other sites, so there's no reason to keep at this one where I have to start from scratch..." but that's ridiculous because all of those started with nothing, too, ha! My recent challenge is to not let Steemit gather dust on a shelf in my mind, thanks for reminding me not to worry :)
