Buenas Noches steemians!

Steemians, especially those who are new to the platform are confuse why do they need to spend their cent just to @powerup. Even me myself before, I am very hesitant to use my dollar just to power up and for me, I can't benefit it. But as time passed, I was able to understand the meaning of POWER UP.

MY INSPIRATION

I am so inspired of how mam @fabio2614 and sir @juichi use their sbd to power up. And their steempower is an evident that they are always doing it aside from sbd they got from their post. As I've remembered, sir @juichi already had 6k plus steempower and mam @fabio2614 had 2k plus steempower. And it motivates me to do what they did:

WHAT IS POWER UP?

Power up is adding steempower from the steem you've won from the contest or from buying steem from your sbd and converting steem to steempower.

WHY DO WE NEED TO POWER UP?

We can get lots of benefits if we are going to power up. If we don't have steem, we need to sacrifice our sbd just to buy enough steem. Yes, we need to sacrifice because POWER UP is a form of investment. And investment is allocating money and waiting a return in the future. And that's how @steemit works. It is not just an earning platform but an investing platform as well. Why is power up a form of investment? If you power up, you can DELEGATE your steempower to the communities.

WHAT ARE THE THINGS WE CAN GET IN DELEGATING?

DELEGATING is letting the community use your steempower. And the benefits of delegating are as follows:

  1. You can earn monthly steem. More delegations, more steem every month. You should aim a thousand or more delegation every community, and if you already reach your goal you can now reap what you sow. Because you can convert your steem to cash. And patience is a virtue here, we need to remember the value of waiting here.

  2. If you delegated a certain community, more support coming from them. Meaning, you had a greater to be selected as one the entries they will pass to the curators.

  3. You can help the platform especially the community grow. More support they got from us, more sbd we can get from them every like they will give.

HOW TO POWER UP?

I had made my power up this week. And here's how I do it:

Step 1:

Since I don't have enough steem, I just bought steem from my sbd. So, I just click the dropdown beside my sbd and choose market.

Step 2:

And I bought 60steem for only 5 sbd.

Step 3:

After 5-10 minutes of buying steem, it will appear to your steem wallet.

Step 4:

Click the dropdown beside your steem and click power up.

Step 5:

Click POWER UP

Step 6:

After 5-10 minutes of waiting, the steem you powered up will appear to your steempower. And I already had 1351 steempower and I delegated 1157 of it.

Step 7:

And since I had enough steempower to be delegated from what I had powered up today, I delegate it to one of the communities who had a full support on my entries.

And in this community, I already delegated 500sp. This was the first community that I delegated, since they taught me first the value of delegating. And I also received many support and encouragements from them especially to mam @cryptokannon, sir @juichi, mam @fabio2614 and the rest of the team.

So, if you are in this platform you need not to think that you could withdraw everyweek. You need to think of the future, you need to INVEST. You need to sacrifice your sbd so that you can expect more sbd and steem in the future.

So, what are you waiting for?

POWER UP NA and don't forget to delegate it in tge different communities.

The Delegator,
