What if I were to say that your lack of "STEAM POWER" could be robbing your wallet of your "STEEM POWER".
STEEM POWER Vs. STEAM POWER
If I were so bold as to say, 99 percent if us here in this platform, know what STEEM is.
Another 100% of us know what "steam" is (at least I hope you do, if not here's a link for your brain).
So then what the hell are you taking about @Fuzzigog?
Let me explain.
The "steam" I'm talking about is the kind of steam you let off after every close shave or significant task completed. The kind of steam you need to let off after a hard day's or weeks work.
I'm talking about stress and willpower and how they can affect your productivity, essentially robbing you of your money!
You see, the more stressful a task, the more likely you are to put it off for the end of the day, or not complete it at all.
We wake up every morning expecting a lovely day and therein lies the problem!
We spend our waking hours letting off steam on the phone, reading or doing whatever else it is we do, even before the day begins.
We then put ourselves on autopilot before stepping out into the matrix.
No one wants to wake up ready to go to war.
But we must! Else you're bound to run out of steam (and steem depending on what you're doing).
Several studies have shown that willpower is like your health or mana bar in a video game. The more you use it, the less you have.
And as you go through your day the more of it you spend.
What's the solution?
Wake up ready to go to war. Your leisure time comes at night or at the end of the day.
Give the day your all by going head first at your toughest task. Break it down into bite sized chunks and tick it off the list.
If you want to go to the gym. You have more "steam power" at the start of the day as opposed to the end of it.
If you need to write that steemit post, would you have the "steam" to write it after a hard day's work? Probably, yes. But most likely not!
So don't deplete your steam power during the day by wasting it on menial tasks.
Smash out your toughest tasks before the day even begins so you can get them out of your way.
And then go through the day in autopilot and let off some "steam" at the end of it.
Your physical, mental and digital wallets will thank you for it!
Stay calm and steam on!
@firepower your input is invaluable. :)

I build up STEAM with the everyday and blow it off a little at a time in Steemit by posting and commenting. Because I love this work ... it gives me more power!

Hey @timeshiftarts, 4 posts a day! That's quite inspirational. What time do you post? Are you posting all at once? Will definitely check your profile out. Gonna crash now!

I post throughout the day. 3-4 every 24 hours. I usually have 2 queued ideas or more at any given time. I fill my camera with pictures and then use the pictures as inspiration to write articles!

I read that 4 posts "maximizes" the potential revenue from a post.
Because Steemit is my job, I work to make sure I have 4 quality posts ready at any given time to keep the monetary value of my posts at the maximum potential.
I also aim to bring valuable information to the table in the form of entertainment, education, art, or science so that my posts give as much value to the community as I receive in monetary compensation.

Uh huh. Im trying to do the same thing. Not really seeing a way to make money though. Getting 25 cents for an article isn't really enough to get by. Great tips though, ill keep them in mind!

Interesting post. I think not all people can finish the main tasks of the day right away. Some are morning people, some are night people. BUT, it is essential to have the willpower to do so, and not get distracted.

@prince-maanisaad, I absolutely agree with you. The point being, whichever type you are, tackling the hard stuff first is essential! :)
Have an awesome day!
