The Daily Qurator #271
Welcome to the 271st Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.03 - $6.75!
Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Bog Thoughts From The Front Lines: Being Neighborly
For 6 1/2 years, the guy across the street has just been "The Guy Across The Street".
A big lumberjack kind of a man, he's quietly gone about his business year after year without there being much reason for interaction. He and his wife have one daughter who's much older than our children and we generally just see them coming and going. He obviously has some kind of disability since it's a chore for him to walk, but in spite of that he meticulously cuts his grass, rakes his leaves, keeps his landscaping neat and cares for his cars. Now and then we exchange polite waves.
But for 6 1/2 years, I haven't known his name
How many of us know our neighbors? Do you even know his or her name? Or are you a wave passer? You know.. wave an acknowledgment and continue on with your life. Sometimes you have to stop and get to know people. See what @lturner has to say about this by reading her post.

How To Make Life Relaxing And Easy
Everyone wants their life to be relaxed and an easy one, but everyone does not have a privilege of getting it. Though it's not about the condition you are in, it's about how you can make it. That's true it is in your hand to make your life as you want whether to be stressful or a relaxing one
Learn about letting go of the past so you can have a better future. Don't let bygones, regrets and mishaps from your past ruin your chances for a brighter and happier future. Read @codingdefined's post to see how to do that.

Some Of The Many Uses For The Beautiful Mimosa Tree
One of my favorite trees the Mimosa tree AKA Persian silk tree are beginning to bloom.
The reason I like the mimosa tree so much is for a couple reasons. It is a great ornamental tree with its beautiful delicate flowers. The mimosa tree also has another nickname "the happiness herb" for it's medical properties. Both the bark and the flowers were traditionally used as a calming agent. You can help treat depression, anxiety, insomnia and grief
This is amazing! I had no idea this tree could help ease so many symptoms and was so healthy for your body! Did you?
NEWS
Our local Sheriff @brumest wrote an nice and simple post about how to properly source images in order to pass the approval process for the Qurator Project. We see quite a lot of members who get rejected by not using the right images or sourcing incorrectly. We are bringing the hammer down on new and old members. We need to up the quality of posts and in that way up the rewards as well. We know that this might not be the most fun thing to do but in the long run it will pay off, being a respected Steemian/Qurite.
Standard Image Sourcing for the Qurator Project
We will be sending out some comments with the Tier 0 upvote. We don't think many of the members are aware that it is really easy to move up to a higher tier by showing Qurator some support. Let's hope some of the older members can move up in tiers and we can make the whole community a bit stronger. =)
This is by far on of the easiest ways to earn a little extra on your posts. READ the post mentioned in the comment. We are not trying to spam our T0 members, we are trying to help and reward you more. If you need help then you can always come visit us on Discord. =)
Note: You can opt out of the comment by replying stop. Keep in mind if you did not read the post linked in the comment you are losing out BIG TIME! Why get a $0.03 if you can easily get a $0.12 or higher upvote. Take part in the community, you won't regret it. =)
Tier Updates Finalized
Tier updates are out and finalized. You can check out the post HERE.
The short version is that Tier 1 and Tier 2 requirements have changed a bit. Please review them.
A separate account has been created and 30 000 SP has been delegated to it. @qurator-tier-1-2 will be upvoting Tier 1 and Tier 2 members.
A large amount of SP was undelegated from @qurator to accommodate for the new account, BUT the upvote weights have been adjust so they should balance out. Just have to see how the Voting Power holds up with the big change.

Steemauto Curation Trail
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P

Thank you so much @quratro for featuring one of my post! I love you!
Thank you for the featured - our second for @qurator! Shoutout to all those behind the project for making Qurator an avenue and a way to support Steemians. 😊❤️
It is our pleasure! The Team thanks you for your support. It is wonderful to know the work pays off :))
We can imagine it's tough, but it does pay off and maybe we (the users) don't often say 'Thank You' enough. It might be something small, but can go a long way!
Great post, keep up the good work.
I am one of the early members of Quartor, and its good to see I got featured :)
