To The Educators: You are not making cookies...

in story •  7 years ago 

Time. This is what I do for fun. I don't drink. I haven't touched any alcohol or drugs since I was 16 and as I said I'm almost 47. I don't like televised sports.

So that has left me with a lot of time to occupy. So I keep myself busy.

I am never bored, as I actually know one day I'll die with hundreds of unfinished projects and desires. I have more things I want to do than there is time to do them and the quantity of those things is always increasing.

So I just do them a bit at a time.

The only thing I really do that could be considered not creating are 1) Playing videogames, boardgames, etc with/without family friends, 2) Reading, 3) watching shows

Pretty much everything else I do is creative in some way. It keeps me growing, never stop learning.

yes thats y you are good in other works.. i want to leave and stay away from social media but i can,t do it..

Well I can tell you that steemit has hindered a lot of my other projects. I spend a ton of time here. Though I can justify it as while I know a lot of things I am by no means wealthy. I actually use earnings from steemit to buy more tools. Then I write posts about using those tools. In my case they are usually game development or art related tools. Sometimes music related. I bought a new guitar and amp in the summer using money I made from steemit. So I can justify the time I spend here. I can't justify time spent on any other social media.

this is great for you and one question can i earn money from steemit easily ???

It takes work. Write articles. Interact with people. If you don't make anything or make very little keep writing. That's what I did. I wrote many posts I loved that literally made $0, but I just kept at it.

i am working hard but i am getting nothing in responce very few people upvote my posts and no one restream them..

It takes time. The key is being genuine. The more you write, the better you get at it. If you try to copy other people you may or may not succeed. I cannot tell you about that as I don't use that method.

I simply write about what is on my mind, and things I am genuinely interested in.

These days anything I write earns something, but that wasn't always the case. I write, and write, and write.

Though I make sure to write about things I am genuinely interested in rather than focusing on what people are likely to vote on.

It might be harder to get noticed now as there are a lot more people and a lot more posts than when I started. I've been here for more than a year.

you are a creative person and i am not like you its very hard for me to write a large blog.. i do write and i am doing my best , i am doing what ever i can

I wasn't always good. You get better with practice. Being creative is something I believe people can get better at as well. That too simply takes process.

It also takes some time to think, observe, and react to things you think and observe.

Can you follow me if you don,t mind i wnat to be friend with you thanks !!

I followed you. Though I want to be honest that it is easy for me to lose track of people I follow as I follow a lot. SO interacting in my comments is usually what I pay the most attention to. If I paid attention to everything else then I'd literally have no time to do anything but steemit. :)

thanks for following i dont want you too see my post or upvote them i just want to be your friend and to be in contact with you.. and am not soo good in english it sorry if you has hard time to understand what i am talking about

I guess that the best term to describe you is as a multipotentialite.

Hell I don't know what describes me. Polymath has been used before too or other terms for people who self educate on many subjects.

I was not a good student in the traditional sense of the word. The "structure" and mandates of the education system don't work very well for me. I actually think they do most people a disservice. I often think that may be intentional. Keep us ignorant and we're easier to control and manipulate.
