A Quote I Always Remember When No One Seems to Upvote My Posts and I Begin To Think That I'm Going Nowhere with Steemit

The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones. 

Confucius, one of the most prominent philosophers of all time.

All you Steemians, who get frustrated from time to time because you put in great work ,which gets little to no response, just remember this quote and keep going.

Yep, all beginnings are difficult. Only the persistent strive

I can totally identify with you. I have written a few posts which I thought were really good. I worked hard on them. Some even took me 2-3 hours to complete. And they went on to make me less than $2.

I often get discouraged by that because I see a lot of posts that probably took about 10 minutes to produce, and they make hundreds of dollars.

I guess we need to remember that we are lucky to make anything at all, as SteemIt is the only site of its kind.

I think the attitude we should have is just to come and have fun and interact with our fellow Steemians, and if we make a little money, it's a bonus.

Anyway, please don't give up. Keep on going. Persistence and hard work are always rewarded. :)
