Don't buy the FUD (fear). Keep STEEMing.

For some very strange reason, people loose their appetite for posting when the STEEM price drops.

Weird.

So I am writing my usual reminder to KEEP POSTING!

I don't understand why people stop. I mean, the logic is clear, but flawed. Because there is a lag time of one week between posting and getting rewarded.

Literally anything can happen in a week. Bitcoin could rip, dragging up STEEM and SBD with it. And if that happens, your post might increase in value by 25%. Or 50%. Or 175%. We just don't know.

And in that scenario, let's say you decide to post again at that point - but then one week later the price plummets again (who knows in this environment?). By the time you get your rewards they will be -25%. Or -50%. Or -175%.

The only way to make sure you see the good times and build your account (through posting) is to post regularly. I post every day. When the good times come, I will have the rewards to show for it: I won't be waiting for a week, hoping that the prices holds.

I recommend this approach as it also helps (I believe) hone your writing skills. The more often you write, the better writer you will become.

Keep STEEMing!


May all beings be happy.

I agree with ya. This isnt a get rich quick thing. Its a bit of gamble at times but you cant lose here (unless you have something invested besides time). My post quality recently has gone down a little bit because im preparing some new content. Keep posting, commenting and upvoting. We are gonna get thru this!!

Yes we are!
People who aren't posting today will be wondering why this time next week 🙃

Keep on Steeming!!!

Consistency is key.... Although sometimes I skip a day or two because I can't think of something interesting to post!

It's interesting to understand the varied motivation for being a part of Steemit... I guess some take future positions, while others are interested in an immediate return... Each to their own.

Consistency is key - and I enjoy pushing through that point where I think "I don't have anything to say".

I post everyday - it might not be literary genius quality, but it's good practice and I am slowly improving as a writer (hahaha I think, anyway)

That's scenario always happened, people don't learn lesson from the past.

☹️

The true voice of reason.

The one thing I have given up trying to predict is people’s behavior. I am behind the steem platform not just for the reward system but the its ethos.

I cannot wait for “Steem 2.0” that is rumored to get launched on EOS.

Keep posting people :-)

Yeah, go figure.
EOS rocks, can't wait. But someone mentioned how there will probably be an outcry from all the people who haven't registered their addresses...
Can't predict people's behaviour all right!

Lol touché sir

@drwom, it's not the money alone. It's the stupid intransigence of witnesses who are unable to monitor their robots, or even put up their own original posts. 😇 What point in curating if a robot downvotes you every single time one makes a comment or post¿ The downvoted has nothing whatsoever to do with the content, but only to do with the name of a user who has the lowest opinion of unmonitored bullying. The Nazi in control of cheetah@ needs a good violent enlightenment that she is the bad influence and is a laughing point among the watchers, having no control over her own robot¿ or deliberately and maliciously or jealously attacking other's hard work whilst presenting nil work of her own. 😇

Hey Simon

The bot thing gets a bit outta control every now and then, that's for sure.

She doesn't post anything herself that has any originality, but earns $ from supposedly using bot to find misused, when she is a major misused herself, witness or not. It stinks. I suggested to someone else that a really marked person might buy ten vf $2 Sims and run up each by voting each, and then downvoted and flag every one of her entries. I'm not computer oriented, but if I can see she is misusing her power and nobody has done anything about it in three months, then my suggestion becomes a more likely scenario every day. Any one with computer skills could do such an action far easier than me who only has a phone. 😇

Agree with you.time to funding Steem. I love Steem. thank you so much for your exclusive post.....@drwom
