What is your motivation and pressure in Steemit?

Hello steemfam, this is another engagement challenge on Steem Indonesia Community. On this piece, I would be sharing my motivations to keep growing on this platform.

Also, I would try to speak on the pressures that I experience but for what it's worth, it's been a delight since my achievement 1 on steemit especially for someone like me that naturally loves to write.

Firstly, I want to invite my friends; @usoro01, @vudeme123 and @us-andrew to partake in this contest.

I would try to answer these questions sincerely as best as I can.

I believe I spend most hours on steemit than other social media apps as I hardly go online on other social apps except to get information or to check somethings. Roughly, I would say I spend 5 - 6 hours daily on steemit.

After checking steemworld.org, I just confirmed that I made 11.45 steems for the last seven days. I wasn't certain because I just powered up recently so I had to check to confirm.

For me, 11.45 steems is seven days is very much okay, what I'm more proud of is the amount of contents I have written in that seven days.

Without joining steemit, I don't think I would have been motivated to write that much. When I scroll through my personal blog, I always feel a gosh of pride. My contents especially the ones based on creative writing are one of my greatest motivation on this platform.

I love creative writing, free writing and most especially story telling. I engage in most contest that have to do with story telling purely out of interest.

I love always love an opportunity that lets your imagination run wild and create a piece with characters, places and events that only existed in your head some moments ago. That is why I love engaging in most contest on @Dream Steam.

When it comes to my storytelling piece, I am more concerned with the comments that even the upvotes. When I see a comment from someone that actually read the piece, I just feel like; "Yoo! You get it". It's a completely different kind of inspiration on its own.

Passion For me motivation is readily available. Firstly and most especially, I love what I am doing. I enjoy writing more than partaking in conversations. I enjoy letting my hands do the talking and I tend to express my self more in this way.

Mentorship: My mentor and big boss, @bossj23 is also a very big motivation. It's not easy to be unmotivated under his watch, you will only end up oppressed. Those that have been here before me also keep me inspired.

Friends: My friends on steemit that constantly invite me to partake in different contest; @zekanem, @queenella1, @usoro01, @kemsyluv and many others always keep me motivated to continue.

Reputation: Probably, it's just me but there is another kind of inspiration that comes from just watching your reputation grow. I am greatly motivated by this too.

Rewards: Rewards like upvotes from others especially for the big bosses, SC01, SC02 and booming... might just be the greatest motivation ever.

I chose club 5050 because it helps me give back to the community as well as encourage myself to thrive harder. That is, I get to withdraw half of my steems and power up the other half.

As an engineering student, there are many things that I need to purchase to make my educational journey smooth and I can't be depending on my parents for everything.

This is were club5050 plays a major role. As I would be able to withdraw some of my steems to meet these demands.

Though, I intend on trying club75 and Club 100 someday. It's always good to be part of a club as it helps steem group.

I haven't bought anything with my steem earnings yet but I do intend on investing my earnings in a certain personal goal and also in funding some of my educational needs.

Thank you very much for taking time to read through
