Consistency - The Key To Success On Steemit ! Learn From The Best.
Do you want to know the secret of being successful on Steemit?
The intriguing and wondrous world of Steemit offers something unique and interesting to read every day.
And there's not a moment that goes by without me finding an opportunity to learn something new.
Every user who signs up on the site for the first time faces a steep learning curve - some try to learn on their OWN while several others gain insight and gather knowledge from the educative posts of EXPERT STEEMIANS.
So how did I discover the secret?
I slowly started observing some of the popular Steemians who've made it to the top by virtue of their hard work and determination. And I noticed that there's one thing that's common to all of them - CONSISTENCY!
What is Consistency?
It is the art of doing the right things again and again over a period of time, irrespective of whether you see short term gains. Your focus is on the long term benefits. Consistency is not about being stubborn, you adapt and you learn along the way. The desire to succeed, the hunger to achieve all your goals keeps you moving forward, and slowly the dust settles and the sky clears and you begin to see the horizon of an absolutely stunning and prosperous future.
Take a look below
These are some of the top Steemit bloggers. Do you see the number of posts they've made (comments as well as stories published). The numbers speak for themselves.

They engage with the community, create those wonderful stories we love to devour over and over again, and enthusiastically respond to all the comments they get.
Tough, right?
Well, they certainly make it look easy.
They offer different content, because just like you and me, they are unique with their own special skills and likes. A lot of effort, a lot of thought goes into everything they do, and that my friends is WHAT WE NEED TO DO!
It is always easier to give up than keep trying.
When success seems like a distant dream, abandoning the dream is a sweet poison that suddenly manifests itself in front of you.
The question is,
- do you take the poison?
- do you save it for later?
- do you chuck it down the drain?
In my previous post, I talked about why we need to take a pause in life and enjoy every moment, and how we can REASSESS, RECOVER and RACE AHEAD towards a successful life.
Well, the same rule applies here.
REASSESS
your priorities on Steemit.
Why do you need Steemit?
How much time can/should you dedicate to Steemit?
Instead of being on Facebook, should you rather be researching ideas for your next blog post?
One answer does not fit all. Set schedules for yourself, prioritize, set short term and long term goals and brainstorm ways to achieve them.
RECOVER
from the damage of self-doubt that you've inflicted upon yourself, and set aside the fear of failure that you've burdened yourself with.
Don't be too hard on yourself!
RACE AHEAD
with full energy towards a glorious reality you deserve.
Engage and interact with the wonderful people you meet on Steemit everyday, build long-lasting friendships, rewards are of-course important, yet the journey should be equally rewarding.
Good luck, and happy steeming!
