RE: I'm Taking an Extended Break from This Shithole

in #steemit7 years ago

You are one of the few people who speaks the truth here.

When I joined steemit, my sole purpose was to earn money by writing any shit I could. I even plagiarised because the content never mattered to me.

I got flagged and I stopped writing here. Steemit never gave me any inspiration to write good quality content. It just appeared to me that it is an easy way to make money.

So, after a while, I made some friends on discord and steemit chat and 2 of them were professional writers and bloggers.

And when I saw their work, I enjoyed them, adored them and I wanted to be like them.

Only after that, I thought of writing some good quality content, improving myself every day and maybe one day become a good blogger and writer.

And the thing about good writers and bloggers is that steemit has very few of them.

Both of my friends left steemit after 2 months, they were writing professionally for more than 10 years.

I could not understand it then why they left when they could make money easily because they were such good writers, as steemit is all about writing, they should be on trending page and earn good amounts on each post.

But I understand it now, they did the right thing.

Sort:  

depends on how much SteemPower they have :| popularity contest tied with money, facebook 2.0 .....

But I understand it now, they did the right thing.

at least you found those, I like this place for much the same reasons although I never dove head first for the rewards. I would disagree it's the right thing to do since that is up to anyone to choose, I for one like having good people around :D

I too love to be around some sound minds.
