Are You Ready To Give Up On Steemit?

Hi There ๐Ÿ˜Š

Alamak!! My last post was a week ago ... what to write ah? Donโ€™t know la....And then you let it die a slow death.... (*Yes! I am talking about you ๐Ÿ˜‰*). So here I come to save the day because all you need to do now is press that Restart button.

To be honest, if you donโ€™t already like to write or tell a story with text, I can understand the challenge. At the end of the day, just like anything in life, your heart needs to be in it. Even if you are doing it just for the money, you will get jaded after some time. Especially now, since we are at the bottom half of the wheel.

So does this mean if you donโ€™t like to write... you better get out fast? Not at all! And this is why I really, really like Steemit. It caters for everyone and all interests. When I was first introduced to the platform, in a nutshell it was whatever you are doing on social media now, just do it on Ateemit. Unless you are someone who does not care for social media at all (and yes I actually know a couple of people like that) you are going to do just fine. If you are already sharing and communicating your life on social media then you just need to move it here. Of course you are going to compare and think oh but I get more likes on fb and insta! Hey, if you have cashed out those likes then you can stop reading...

Lalalalalalalalalalala.........

Oh!! You still here!! haha. So if you don't like writing what's there?
If you want your picture to speak more than your text ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ steepshot
If you like sharing your experiences in short form ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ zappl
If you like moving pictures/video ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ dtube or dlive (yeah, you can take your pick)
If you are a gamer and want to stream your game ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ dlive
If you want to use only your voice ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ dsound
And the beauty of it is, they all end up on your wall and if it is engaging you earn.

OK, if you are thinking I've given you platforms but what about the ideas. On how to think up of ideas, do follow @maverickfoo
But if you don't want to learn how to fish, then I'm going to hand you the fish and they are contests!! Yes, just follow the instructions and let the rest follow. There are tons out there but I can share some with you right now.
Every Monday @artz posts a list of contest. It is a super long list and believe it or not it doesnโ€™t cover everything. This is a good place to start.
As not to overwhelm you, here are some that's triggered my brain juice:
Photography ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ@timsaid's MyPicture Day Challenge, @daveks's Black & White Photo Contest
Singing ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ @danieldoughty's OK Bah! Open Mic Contest
Doodling ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ @coloringiship's Weekly Doodle Contest
Gratefulness (yes, got also) ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ @elizacheng's Make Me Smile
Writing (My Current Favourite) ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ @mariannewest's Weekend FreeWrite & 5 Minute FreeWrite, @freewritehouse
Music ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ @vandigital & @djlethalskillz's Song Of The Day and Recordpool

I wish I had the time to take part in all of these alas I need to pick and choose. So this gives you an indication of what's on Steemit so keep going, give it the love it deserves and you will find your groove.

Hey, thanks for the mention! I was toying around with an idea to do an online coaching session to help generate ideas. Haven't really figured out the mechanism yet, and also carving the time!

I like your no nonsense, letโ€™s get to the point approach... and you are also very generous with your tips and ideas ... your online coaching will fly for sure
