You Must Write

You’re Not Invisible

We should all blog because we can.

The internet has given us a platform, a soap box, and we can choose to use it or not.

Most of us have chosen to use it.

Here’s why blogging is important

  1. The internet is NOT everywhere, and not everyone has this luxury/privilege.
  2. We have a voice and it’s important to use it. The more we write and speak, the better and more comfortable we become with visibility.
  3. We all have something to teach or to learn.
  4. We have the tools to be SEEN and HEARD-use them! (There is an old saying that women should be “Seen and NOT heard”, which is clearly bullshit.)
  5. It will teach us tolerance and resilience.
  6. Writing will help you to become a better reader. You will build more skills to know when someone is speaking/writing from the heart, because we have done so; we have walked the walk.
  7. It’s impossible that everyone will agree with everything we write. That’s ok.
  8. Charlatans will be easier to spot. Pretenders might aim for agreeing with everyone so they can sell to everyone. People are trying to make a living and that’s fine. As a writer, over time, we will be able to identify the difference between sales copy and heartfelt writing. We may appreciate both. Sadly, even some of today’s spam can be very convincing grammatically correct writing.
  9. Writers are readers and in this way, with sharing and cross promotion, our sincere circle of friends and fans will increase.
  10. Be authentic. You can shine. You can help others shine too.

You’ve Got the Power!

Correct michel so let's continue blogging :)

Yes @dim753 how are you doing?

the problem with internet is !! those who started using it earlier have become more privileged !! you can see some of the posts in steemit ...they are not as good to get 200$ upvotes but some of the most awesome ones get lost in the pile in new section !!

But it doesn't have to be about Steemit crypto or money per blog post. You can learn to write to sell local services or to market an online business. You can write a speech or a song. If you have something to say, don't let faux privilege get you down (I've been 58 on Steemit for like 1 year!) It's ok. Keep writing :). Have you tried changing your topics? I did better for awhile with smoothie recipes and fiction...have you tried other tags?

yeah i am a painter....I stopped posting my paintings !! switched to poems wrote one today !! didnt help i managed to get 3-5 dollars a post but that too is fading away with this poem !! I have done everything possible ....and that doesn't mean i am giving up on steemit !! but i do wish i had breasts like sweetsjjj just to sway all those whales to my posts or if i could have joined by the time steemit was at its embryonic stage !!

LOL the internet doesn't need more swaying breasts! Have you repurposed your content to other places as well? Share some links here....we love art!

Do you play that guitar you're holding in your circular foto?

yeah , sort of but not that great recently got into it !! so am i any good ?? and the poem was it worth switching to from painting

I see talent for both. Keep creating. Also try to repurpose your content on Medium, Etsy and other places, no?
