Frustrations
Hey guys, sorry to sound aggressive but I have to be honest I'm not feeling to great right now considering I had my laptop and phone stolen but to add injury, I look at my followers on steemit that continue to grow and look at the value of my posts and it's not looking too good right now.
I've tried to upload content daily but when it doesnt even reach 0.10 Cence for an original 4 minute song I've created and advertised the steemit platform on YouTube via unique and original content, not something that fills my soul with joy.
Not to mention that I have seen a few other members on this site that have basically copied other people's posts and then added literally a few words and somehow gain over $300 (basically plagiarising) ask @luccypher exactly what I mean.
So sorry guys but I have not signed up for this platform to feel just like I'm worth nothing and to have the added injury of people copying Others recieving huge Upvotes while I struggle to reach 0.10 cent.
Anyways rant over
Happy Easter
Sorry about the lost... Dont let it put you down.... Great performance there.
It's really difficult not to let it get me down but thanks for your support.
I'm so sorry you got your phone and laptop stolen. You sing beautifully in spite of the voice issue you mention. I so love the piano. The lyrics are so touching.
Thank you miss rose I'm glad I have managed to touch your soul somehow. I'm trying my best to keep my chin up but it's just seems like the universe just doesn't want me to achieve anything in life and as much I know I have to trust the universe it's also incredibly difficult when it just seems I'm constantly being picked up and chucked away again. I've been using this platpform for a month now but am incredibly confused with why i struggle to reach out to more people as most of my posts fail to even reach 0.50 cent. I don't know if it's because I haven't commenting enough or connected with the right people perhaps? Either way again it makes me not really want to continue posting as it doesn't seem worth the effort for the sake of a few up votes and few dollars but hey maybe I just have to be patient and continuing what I'm doing and will eventually get the type of recognition and value I believe my content is worth. Do you play any instruments yourself?
Sorry about your lost, so many of us at some point feel discouraged about life not just steemit, but we shouldn't give up,keep pushing, you never can tell when your day is coming.
I look at this platform as a social experiment. Dont focus on the money for the moment. See what you are doing as an investment. Its a bit of a gamble but if you see it like that, you will be ok and you will also meet lots of cool people here.
I hear you brother. I just gave up on the money and started focusing on making friends and engaging with people that have something to say. I find that it helps a lot with the depression.
Keep sharing things that you want to share, because you want to share them. If you don't feel like sharing them, don't. You could probably make better money joining a curation trail or something and just engaging with others. A thoughtful comment can earn you more than a post quite easily. My buddy stopped an account from plagiarizing the other day and the original content creator upvoted his comment $1.00. That's more than his posts make any day. He was just doing what was right and it worked out.
Anyways, I hope it gets better and you keep those creative juices flowing. I subscribed to your youtube channel in case you quit posting here.
Cheers
