Inspiring stuff, great sense of humour too. I guess it is indeed more like farming but only after you've killed quite a few mammoths and gathered your fair share of berries (then tamed a couple of wolves and bread a herd of cattle). Evolution!

This is so very true. It really takes effort to make it on here, thank you for being a Coinspiration to people like me.

Great infographic. I am farming but sometimes need to start fishing for bigger fish so forgive me for that :) would you like to take part in my giveaway of crypto kitty figurine I created exclusively for steemit?

I upvoted your post before you mentioned this to me :D I think it's an awesome 3d model, but I don't particularly take part in giveaways.

I'm not saying you have to resort to farming, but it seems like the starting point for those who are honest and hard-working. I've had a few fishing incidences myself, which helps me to keep producing...

Although in the short term, I may have to post every other day. Life is getting too busy :-/

Thanks for that, now I see your vote. I understand you don't like giveaways. I need to test all the possible ways to spread the word. I hate this part, the self promotion, but the other option would be buying votes. I did it in past but want to see if it is possible to get some attention the other way. I see you had good idea with your illustrations in the footer. I saw your image on so many posts. That's brilliant idea.

Are you part of the #slothicorn group in discord chat? Being an artist, you'd be a natural fit, and there are very few 3d sculptors in there, if any.

I'm not posting today, but I'll retweet your post.

Thank you, thats awsome, I already see few more people noticed it from your resteem. Spreading like a virus :)
I must check this group. I am not very active on discord. I usually have it open and watch the conversations but my hands are usually sanding something or painting the models :) Need to find balance between chatting and working on figurines. They take days to create, but if I don't do it, there is nothing to write about in my posts ;)

Glad to hear, I also tweeted your link and tagged a few major players ☺

I dont chat much either, for the same exact reason!

Thanks a lot for your help. I wonder how far this post can go without bot upvotes :)
I can work on my craft or try being like a teenager online :), hard to be good at both :) I am too old for the second (38), I am happy it exists because it let me connect with the world, but must be under control. I already saw signs of addiction during my first month on steemit :)

even with my poor english, I know what you are trying to say! take time to prepare, dont expect something big but do your best effor making your blog, one day it will worth it😊💕 story of my steemit life 😆

I say, expect everything big, that way you will give it your all without excuses!

Your English is great by the way!:)

I agree, I have never had any problem or misunderstanding with @kawaiipower's English :)

Awww thank you so much for your complement :)
haha I guess I should think positive! law of attraction <3

You are the best at being You:)

At least I always upvote your comments so that helps a little. ☺

Half the time I'm just so tired... not because posting is so hard, but life simply gets in the way and creates pressure... Keep up the nice work!!!

Awww thank you so very much :)
You are one of very few people who actually talk to me here on steemit, so I am very grateful to you :)
you mean lots to me! Arigatou!

I find that to be quite strange! You always post fun things. Maybe not everyone likes super cute projects, but they're still valuable posts. And you always have interesting things to say or some kind words to share.

Hopefully in time the right kind of followers will find you! :)

That's a great analogy.. 👍👍

Well I'll be honest, I kind of adapted it from a book I read and put my own spin on it. But I figure it'd be a good reminder for everyone. I even need to remind myself! ☺

Well.. get out there and spread that fertilizer then 😂

YOOOO THIS IS ABSOLUTLY AMAZING! You never cease to amaze me bro 😂 thank your for creating this info graphic haha

Are we free to use the image?! I wanna make a post about the farming analogy!

Go for it! (Using the infographic)

Yaaaa I thought I'd go for a little humour, the other ones were more serious and formal. I miss the comedy stuff. Which reminds me, today is my day off, and I'm going to keep working on the spam rant...

Matter of fact, with work picking up, I may have to post every other day (hence breaking my own rules) in order to prevent burn out.

But hopefully I've been on point soon. My work flow is either dead or hyper, so when it's hyper, there's no turning it away, I gotta aggressively stack before it falls off again... Life of a freelancer... no fun :-/

Ayeee thank you 🙏🏿 I’ll be sure to make it good ahaha

And noooo! Just blog real quick about your busy workday or something! We have to keep accumulating this Steem no matter what while it’s low!

And ayeee that spam rant is going to do numbers watch haha! My life is a lil diff cause I Have a work schedule, but I think I need to start waking up super early to actually write quality posts because it’s begining to get hella stressful trying to write something during my lunch break haha

I also hate to see others become discouraged but i am myself becoming discourage

Maybe look at your progress as an investment opportunity. If I was to cash out today, my money wouldnt go very far with all of the current obligations I have. I will wait a number of years before doing anything.

Read this guy for example:
https://steemit.com/steem/@taskmaster4450/usd1-000-steem-understanding-ecosystems-is-the-key

Also, I look at some of your payouts and they're pretty NICE! So why you so worried???

Most ppl have a hard time making over $5 - so why you complain so bad???

I am discouraging due to some persons. I think I should focus on myself. I should not check their blogs.

I dont usually go to the large blogs, some of these guys upload a photo and make $400 +... Effortlessly, day and night...

However, I'm trying to be content with what I have and build up my friends and followers and make posts that are so fresh and so clean ☺

I am not talking about those who effortlessly make over $300-400.

Sir, You are doing amazing. No doubt. I know your effort that how much you spend to make an animation. Perhaps I can discuss better on steemit.chat

Great tips and so sorry you only made 4 cents on your 1st post! My hubby and I just watched your video from that first post and it's hilarious! Maybe you can post it again...just sayin it deserves more than 4 cents!

It's actually been posted again, which I didn't mention. The second time I think it made around $15. But, it can be so hit-or-miss. I think some of my hits have compensated for that...

Although if I were to get a re-cap of all the hours I've put into Steemit, I'd probably go pale and collapse... ☺

Still struggling to find balance here. I think I'm going to post every other day or go back to sketching. I'm a freelancer and I have very volatile swings in my work flow, there's no consistency... Will Steem eventually be a way to end this madness? I really hope so!

Thanks for this, and thanks for being one of the least discouraging accountants I've encountered since September. ✌️

Thanks man, that's actually crazy to hear, I have off-days like everyone else... I'm trying to take the focus off me, so maybe that helps deflect some of the negativity :)

Yeah, off days are authentic. Nice technique, lol I think I know it, but never could articulate it enough to employ it.

I think we've gone through same experience and we both need pretty same amount of time to make new content. Are you reading my mind? :D

It can be a hassle, especially with art work! I've tried articles and photography, but it's just not my scene... I guess persistence is key... and... if I'm not having fun, then why bother?

That's the key. I guess everyone will find his fans here, regardless what's your favourite topic, because steemit is getting bigger every day.

☺ I dont have time for Discord chat, maybe one day I will... I'm hoping!

I know you will ;)
