Sometimes or perhaps always, we have asked each of us "What should I do to earn money in Steemit?" or "Why am I not making money on Steemit?" . The truth is that in and out of Steemit, if we are doing some work that depends on our abilities to deal with other human beings and we are NOT making money, it is simply because we are NOT adding value to someone else's life. When we contribute value to the life of any person, always people will want to "buy us" as a person. It is very important to be clear that the key is to provide value, directly and indirectly, consciously and unconsciously so that we can sell ourselves as a person, our idea and our product or service. Now what is the value? How do I add value?

VALUE

Def. 1. Grado de utilidad o aptitud de las cosas para satisfacer necesidades o proporcionar bienes o deleite. 3. Alcance de la significación o importancia de una cosa, acción, palabra o frase. "Valor". Diccionario Nuevo Espasa Ilustrado . 2005.
The value is, any person or a quality of the same, characteristic of something or thing that provides a solution to something or someone in any aspect of life (And that this, value it). That it provides well-being to the life of some person, that it takes away the pain of his life, be it lack of water, food, oxygen or rest, to mention some basic needs of the human being and many other living beings.
That is to say, anything to which a positive meaning can be attributed, this means that, beyond satisfying basic needs, the rest is something totally subjective because what can bring value to me, not to another. vice versa.

How to add value?

To provide value we can guide using "The Pyramid of Maslow", this can be a map, which if you want can guide you to where there is a need to solve it, achieving value and consistently, earn money, have the partner you want or sell your product or service as mentioned above.

Based on Maslow's Pyramid and quote from Steve Jobs, we can say that to add value we must connect our skills and aptitudes with the needs of other people at any level to satisfy them.
And to be able to do this in a happy and pleasant way, which will make us very efficient, we must have a self-knowledge to know what our natural talents are, what are the intelligences we possess and with them, make our contribution.

Once we have understood that it is the value and how to contribute it, we can only put a price on the service or product that we believe.
An advantage of knowing about the value you can bring to someone's life is that the price will never be important if you really do a good job. If you know that you do it has a huge impact, your product or service can be very well paid. In fact, depending on the need that a person has, the price may be the error by which he limits himself to acquire your product!

or service. Why ? because if the person has a need for recognition and approval and he / she has a lot of money, he / she will look to buy something extremely expensive and if you have that product or service that he / she has liked but the fixed price only indicates "This is a trinket, you can get any ", this person will look for another, for the simple fact that it does not seek to satisfy a physiological need but rather an emotional one.
