I spend a good chunk of my day working with newer Steemians that are coming to the blockchain for the first time. And whether we like it or not, they still see things like this....
Huge rewards to some Steemians that are creating content!
Yup, the brand of Steem for people outside of the blockchain space is still 'get paid to be social'. And while there is lots of development taking place to bring awareness to the massive potential here, it's a reputation we have.
So when these new Steemians come on board and join @SteemSavvy , the first thing I try to do is to lower their expectations. Meaning, don't expect a $200 post payout anytime soon!
Instead I focus on this simple truth....
If you show up everyday, for the long run, you will see success.
One of my favorite authors Jon Gordon once stated;
"When people ask me how long it takes to become an overnight success...I tell them 10 years!"
And while I don't think it'll be a full decade before we see the potential of STEEM fully realized...We need to adopt the 'slow and steady' mentality.
This isn't sexy!
It's not what a lot of people new to the crypto space want to hear...Let's be honest....All they want to know is....When Lambo!!!!!!????
But let's take a step back and look at the history books from some of the most successful people and companies in history and see if we see a pattern...
Starbucks, the popular coffee shop didn't open their 5th store until 13 years after they started as a company...
Wal Mart, the retail giant didn't open store #2 until 7 years after Sam Walton started the company...
John Wooden, the leadership expert and greatest college basketball coach in history didn't win his first NCAA title until 20 years after he began coaching...
Why am I showing you this?
Because if we want to become a success not only on STEEM but anything in life...You need to be stubborn about success!
That means showing up everyday. Even when you don't feel like it.
It means creating content or engaging with your fellow Steemians...Every. Single. Day!
Again...This is not sexy. This isn't what the majority of people want to hear when they learn 'they can make money here'...You see it everyday, people obsessed with what the price of STEEM is. Asking when the next bull run will take place. Doing everything they can to attract an upvote from a whale...
The real wealth is in the journey!
It's in the people you meet and the relationships you build. Last night @RichardTaylor @PixiePost and myself were hanging out in a live stream on @Vimm and we discussed this point...
Now is the time to build not only your Steem Power but also your relationships. And this doesn't and shouldn't translate into instant success...People need to get that idea of making a killing off of Steem out of their minds....Right now ;)
The goal each and everyday should be to grow our relationships and network...And to quote the famous Ralph Waldo Emerson...
"Adopt the pace of nature...Her secret is patience!"
Show up everyday, add value and enjoy the journey...It's going to be a great future here on STEEM!

Right most of the new commer leave this platform because they didn't earn 200$ after few post . They are thinking this is not possible and they leave it . It need time and engage with community they are not thinking about it .

Yup. Following you and taskmaster has helped me know about projects I would have been clueless about. I have over 150 sbi units since I last commented. I also found out about, actifit, dlike, and Partiko thanks to paying attention. Gathering all those tokens dude. XD

The new Steemian has to understand, we all start from 0 and you are doing it the right way jon.

I can definitely attest to this as I still remember the days of my $.01 payouts at the beginning! However, as time has progressed and I have created great relationships due to engaging, I can start to see the fruits of the effort. Now, the engagement just motivates me to continues plowing forward no matter what!

I have to admit, I was also lured into Steem by those numbers... I was expecting 5-10$ daily at the beginning and later... who knows... But, unfortunately, that is not the case.. :)
Anyway... I know what I can expect, and I try to post at least one article per day and try to engage more through comments and discord...
We (newbees) are lucky that we have some old wolves here that want to help us at the beginning... To recap... posting, commenting, meet some exciting new people.... and revenue will come alone...
and snowball effect also...

Thanks for saying the truth as it is, my success in steem is something that I must work for, cultivate it, mulch it, prunes it and expects fruits, but all these processes require time, smart-working and patience.

I have begun trying to do this on a more regular basis. I know I have never made a good go of anything in life without sheer dogged perseverance. Why would I expect anything different with STEEM?
I initially started out with the idea of making gobs of money. I have now seen differently. My efforts in the next one year are going to be directed at maximizing my stake (not my profits -- although I think they will come secondarily) and trying to help others do the same. We will see :-)

Please consider getting your peeps to try posting restaurant reviews on the @tasteem dApp. I have a new second account for food only and just started posting there in the last month. The results for a little guy are simply astonishing.
I am not trying to spam up your post, but this is my most recent review of the dApp telling people how to approach the task so they can succeed there. You only need to look at the fat vote I got on this review from tasteem to see the potential. They have 1M sp and are not stingy about giving it out.
https://steemit.com/esteem/@fitinfunfood/freewrite-day-529-gold
I am thrilled with the results here and cannot believe my good fortune. Anyone can do this if I can.
