RE: If you don’t want to fail on Steemit. Stop doing these things! 🚫🚫🚫
You go to my post, skip my content and scroll down quickly to comment, and your comment is just about upvoting exchange.

This. I just started a week ago, to really use steemit actively, but this is something, which I was aware of quite fast. There are so many people just begging all over the place instead of delivering high-quality content. Sure, with some of my posts I got lucky so far and received a decent amount of attention after only a short time, but I think (or hope), that's mainly because I was able to post something valuable.
Even if I write something, which takes me several hours to finish and don't get much out of it - it's still alright, because I've a passion for writing and education. It's never a waste of time, even if you don't get money out of it and I think, it should never be the main purpose of writing at all.
Just do, what you love to do, keep on in delivering good content and success will come almost inevitably at some point. Therefore, I'd agree with your claims :)
I see myself in your comment. Feel like your comment was writen by me lol.
Anyway, Steemit gives us reward which is much more better than what we deserve. Even with a few cents. If we post it in facebook or instagram,.. who gonna give us that a few cents? As someone said that keep following your passion. Success will follow you. It may not be true but sounds inspiring. Right? :))
Well, that's because, we probably share a similar mindset here :)
When I discovered Steemit, I was like "wait, I've written so much on my Facebook page and only ever got some attention for it - now I can still write, get attention and eventually make some money - that's amazing :D
But some people tend to be really annyoing because of that - today I received an invite from a random guy on Facebook, who begged me to follow and upvote him. Nope. Definitely not gonna happen. I'm honestly asking myself, if people have no shame anymore.
