It seems like every day you hear about the FUD...The fear, uncertainty and doubt that plagues the crypto markets and has since day one. I am a big believer in crypto, especially STEEM, so I usually get thrown under the bus on social media platforms when I start raving about it all...
Hey I don't blame them...
The promises of instant riches. The sure bet Bitcoin was this time last year....Hype, hoopla and more promises...
And then reality sets in. We go from $20,000 BTC, to around $3,000. We saw STEEM as high as $7-8 each and now we're down to around 25 cents...So I think it's pretty clear....
If you believe in crypto, you should NOT be here because of the price lol Because if you start talking about how much fiat you are going to make by investing in this stuff well, you set yourself up to get criticized...A lot.
So what can we do?
We obviously can't control what the price of crypto so that leads me to STEEM...
This blockchain is unique. Not only do we have some of the most intriguing and addicting dApps on the planet (SteemMonsters, Magic Dice, Partiko....Just to name a few)...But we still have the ability, for everyday people to....CREATE!
I know it sounds so....2017....But content creation on STEEM is such a powerful tool for more people to be introduced to this blockchain.
I've been in love with content marketing as a business model for years now. And have spent the better part of a decade, building blogs, creating video training and doing live streams...To help grow my brand and ultimately, my businesses.
And I could never control how successful my industry was in general. But I could control the effort I put into my content...Every day.
I developed a daily live stream that went strong for 5 years plus. And all I did was...Show up! I've been writing blogs since 2003 and once again, all I did was show up and create! The industry had it's issues and things I wished I could change, but at the end of the day...All I could control was my daily effort.
So this is a call to action for everyone on STEEM. And even those of you that might be reading this and have not yet joined the blockchain....Creating content and engaging every single day on this blockchain is what you CAN control.
The prize of STEEM can go from 20 cents to 2 bucks....It doesn't matter! We talk in investing terms about dollar cost averaging your investments, well I would suggest that we take that exact same approach here.
Create, engage and share on STEEM...Every day! No matter if the price is 2 cents or 20 dollars per token. So when things are great, you've built a strong brand for yourself and people will look to you for guidance. And when things aren't going that great when it comes to price, we're continuing to add value to people's journey. Remember, we're still EARNING STEEM and that's one of the biggest secrets to all this crypto stuff...
Now is the time to build and create here so that when the masses start poking around....They see YOU leading the charge!
You've heard it from me over the past 13 months....Stop worrying about the price, because we can't control it!
Let's worry about;
1. Creating
2. Engaging
3. Accumulating
Because once again, that's all we can really control...Our daily actions!
Posted from my blog with SteemPress : http://plus1daily.com/heres-what-we-can-control-when-it-comes-to-crypto/
Thats the right point we should not worry about price as of now because the BTC is almost 85% low so just need to see how we can grow at this level so we can creat a good reputation amoung people and in next bull run STEEM will shut the mouth of people who is against of this crypto.

Knowing you that list will not take you much of the year to accomplish. Building your online business back to where it was will tricky one.
I think you can do it and teach some more than stubborn people the way to go along the way.

Exactly. And if we can convert a few more souls along the way even better. As time goes on and the chain gets upgraded it will be a lot easier since we are dealing with the same few issues since I joined. If they can be fixed bringing and keeping people here becomes easier.

I don't even discuss cryptos with anyone as I'm no investor. The way I see it, cryptos are no different to fiat. Fiat only has value if people accept it as having value and are willing to take it in payment. It goes up and down in value too. We only really notice that when we exchange it for other countries' currency or imports suddenly go up or down in price.
If cryptos remain purely as investments, then I would agree that they won't last. however, they are being used as currency and that is how they can continue to move forward. Steem has taken a huge leap forward for cryptos in introducing us none investors to cryptos and being much more usable like a fiat currency. People on here who have business are accepting it as payment. This is how crypto can move forward. The most usable ones will be the ones to be taken up and steem is useable. I hope soon that it will be exchangeable directly for fiat currencies without having to send it through another coin first.

perfect comment. yeah i think steem has the potential to a huge audience. and that audience will not be relying on an investment side of things. it’ll be a real use case token.

Same here, I have found that following the mindset of the community for inspiration to come up with ideas proves the most engaged.
The only hard part for me is when I’m on a major low, hard to push that positive message when your not feeling it. Those days often what I create is actually what leads me out of the funk searching for a way of spinning the mindset, therapeutic outlet!

It is pretty gorgeous here! Depending on where you live it’s just 10 mins to no where which I love being surrounded by nature, I don’t think I could do big city. Just this morning I went on a walk to scale a mountain face with my dog only 10 mins away from home. Wilderness is where I do my meditations in the morning, I feel the most relaxed when away from everything.
I’m sure it’s not hard to find something here to lure her in 😉

Thanks for the perspective as this is still relatively new for me as creating and curating content as in the last I was really only a consumer of it. I have come to enjoy the experience and engaging with many others has left me feeling encouraged to see this built out to its full potential. I prefer making the product than being the product in centralized platforms!
