When I first started posting to Steemit I knew I was going to fail, but I kept posting because failure is a part of learning and most successful people fail eight times before they become successful. Then I wrote a five part series that took 4 days to write each part that made a grand total of one dollar and I was finally a success, not because of the dollar that I made.

It was because I also received 49 followers and I learned how to write for Steemit and how not to write for Steemit. This place takes time, very few regular people without a following stroll in and make thousands anymore. You need to build a following in order to succeed here, just like every other paid blogger on other sites and every youtuber.
