I Dream of Steem

This in no way is meant to be a satirical post, and I'm sure many people can relate. Steemit has become an obsession for me, where I go to sleep thinking about it and wake anxiously ready to login. It's like a drug that I can't get enough of. There have even been incidents where I have fallen asleep in my home office in front of the PC reading articles, only to find myself waking up face down in a pool of drool on my desk. This of course when I'm not falling asleep in bed with my laptop next to me.

I often have day dreams about my next great post and what it will be about and am constantly thinking of something that will take this platform to the next level - something that I can contribute. I am one of those people who get's obsessed with things I get myself into, almost to the point where all I can think about is whatever it is I'm fixated on - in this case it is Steemit.

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts - I am slowly transitioning my life so that I can focus more time on my "Steemit career" over my full time career, given that I enjoy what I do for Steemit more then what I do in my day job. I still feel that the quality of my posts and content is lacking and that I still have more room for improvement before I can consider this my primary source of income.

This obsession is not necessarily bad, since it has gotten me to think more abstractly and less like a robot. What I mean by that is, that we all fall into a routine where a lot of us do the same thing everyday - wake up, go to work, do some repetative and remedial tasks, go home, and go to bed - only to repeat the same thing the next day. At least with Steemit, everyday is about something new. I am forced to think about topics which interest me and at the same time read articles which expand my horizons. I found myself using much more of my brain power then the typical repetitive days when I don't jump on Steemit - It has encouraged me to go out and look at the world for what it could and not what it is.

How many of you feel the same way? How many of you go to sleep and wake up thinking about Steemit? Im sure @ned and @dan do since this is their baby. Let me know in the comments below.

Dust off the cobwebs on your brain and keep on Steeming!!
