In the world we live in, there many ups and downs which we have to overcome no matter how tremendous they may appear. In this article which is a contest presented to us by @legendchew has tasked set it up for us so that we can view on how to over come the obstacles In steemit and shall be discussed farther in the subject for today.

What is an obstacle?

In my own understanding, an obstacle may be defined as a stronghold which stands in the way of someone to prevent them from moving forward and this may include things like wrong people, situations both mentally and psychological and so many things like poverty. These stronghold may be people who are preventing you from progressing or even on a personal level, someones way of conduct may contribute to their retardation in life and all these i can group them as obstacles

Steemit is where people just want to earn but don't want to invest in time. Am not saying as in spending more time on their phone s or laptops trying to put down some content to enable them earn some thing.

This is more beyond spending hours infront of your desktop but it goes higher that posting content. I have of late learnt something from my colleagues from the same campus that Promoting Steemit is the way to go and push something bigger into your wallet.

From the posts from my friends like @ireneblessing, @Yohan, @Jarau,@tesaganewton and @jordanlove. There is something i have always admired from them and it is awake up call for every Ugandan who is already on Steemit to stand to this and promote our own platform.

There are so many things and obstacles which came my way in the steemit kind of walk especially in different areas which am going to go through in the next segment of my article and i think they will be of great importance to the steem community.

HOW DO WE OVERCOME THE OBSTACLES IN STEEMIT, This how i over came some of them

Poor Quality content
When it comes to this kid of hindrance in my steemit post, i was just fascinated with just waking up every morning and writing down something to show that i was active but did not mind that quality content was needed on this plaform. That alone affected my scores for the first three weeks not until i go help from a close friend who was pursuing the same line of occupation of being a steemian.

  • How i over came this was from the efforts of @ireneblessing, @sembozade and @jona12 who kept encouraging me to write down good content that can catch people's attention and in so doing, some thing in my wallet. This has greatly helped me and through this am on the road of helping many new steemians on the platform.

Time is another Factor
We all know that time is money and indeed this concept applies to steemit as well. We all have different schedules of the day but how we manage time varies so much and this is something we ought to work on when dealing with steemit. Personally i exceute engineering works and there is need for full attention to my work place and the question comes, how can i spare time for steemit as well especially in interacting with my followers and those i follow?

  • Steemauto solved this trouble and this is nolonger a hindrance and i have to say thanks @ireneblessing for her effort for taking me through the entire process of scheduling posts. In the past months i was unable to discover this trick but as for now, i schedule my posts so that i can creat time for my friends and going through their content as well commenting and upvoting worthy content. Steemauto is the biggest solution i found for how to manage my time for steemit.

Discord chat plartform
This is aplatform with the potential of involving as many people as they are willing to join and has come out as the most outstanding social center for us rubbing shoulders with friends and hence, it has been in great use and it is something worthy to use on tearing away strongholds which may be in our paths

  • This has really been of help to me when it comes to question and answer because it clearly involves one on one interaction and it is through this that my steemit community is growing through sharing different ideas and hence am now relieved from looking for colleagues to teach me anything on steemit. I advice my fellow friends to join Discord for the matter of simplifying their communication.

Tags to be used
Personally i was not aware of tags to be include when summarizing up any post. This tremendously affected my blogs to the level that i was earning 0.00$ on a daily basis and this went for a number of week minus my content being recorganized and how this i break this kind of dilema.?

  • This was solved by reading a post from a fellow Ugandan steemian @Ultimate guide to new steemian by @hazaharu talking about how to tag our blogs and with that kind of guidance and support, i learnt this myself and here iam jotting down something with the skill i have learnt.

Finally
There are times when someone runs out of what to share on steemit and this another great problem which has many steemians taking days minus posting anything due to lack of what share. Personally i face the same kind of problem. There is always away to break that kind of absence on steemit and this is how i counter such.

  • The thing is easy and precise, there are many sources from which we can derive what to share on Steemit and the Internet is one of them
  • The other kind of way of getting what to write about is actually around you, any activity or even enguaging your followers in the Q and A session so that you can know how to communicate and reply them concerning a particular kind of concern raised from your previous post

Conclusion
In life we ought to face all challenges brought about by different obstacles and therefore, there is need to sse how to solve them and more on Steemit, lets fight this and we shall grow the community.
