Expectation VS reality in Steemit! 5 examples
Hello friends of Steemit, today I come to you with a topic for which many of us have lived during our stay in Steemit.
According to Google, the word expectation is defined as:
It is known as expectation, which is translated as "watched" or "seen") to the hope, dream or illusion of accomplishing or fulfilling a certain purpose.

Expectations we have about the social network, but we realize that the reality is completely different, as time passes.
1) Rapid gain

Many people start at Steemit with the hope that they will make quick money, that with their first posts they will generate very good profits; when the reality is completely different.
Generally, the first posts are the ones that are least likely to generate profits, since we are just beginning and do not have a large following or reputation.
We are still in a process of learning, so it is likely that we have several errors in the publication and hinder the gain of votes.
2) Great profits with the "Introduceyourself"

That popular tag "introduceyourself" in which you introduce yourself to the Steemit community in a formal way for all users.
Usually this type of publications can generate good profits with respect to your other previous publications, since it is a tag widely used and visited by the community.
That does not mean that any publication that is in the "introduyourself" will be successful, there is also a large number of users who fail to excel.
Do not give yourself many illusions to avoid later disappointments. Trust your work and your talent, if you did not succeed, it will be in the next, the important thing is not to give up.
3) Easy money

Most people think that making money online is easy, since as it is not a way to earn regular money, but from the comfort of your home and do not have to go anywhere else; They think that only for that reason is it easy.
The reality is completely different, writing interesting content for a community of users can be somewhat complicated and more if we propose the goal of uploading a post on a daily basis.
Have an idea, translate it, develop it and then publish it; It is not easy. You have to be very creative in Steemit to be successful.
4) Copy and / or be guided by the greatest

By not generating the expected profits, we go into despair and look for Steemit those issues and / or users that generate great rewards to guide us, this is one of the worst things we can do.
We think that creating a similar or similar content of the most popular users will also run with the same fate, when the reality is completely different.
Originality is a very important factor in Steemit, which will determine whether you excel or not. So be careful when copying some other content or the way of publishing from a recognized user, nothing better than leaving our mark being ourselves.
5) Win community contests.

Participate in a contest created by the Steemit community.Expectations are always quite high when participating in one, but the reality is quite another.
Most competitions held in Steemit, have a large number of participants which makes it difficult for us to achieve any reward.
The important thing is to try, but as we know if we are going to win or not, if we do not dare to participate. Do not be discouraged if you do not win a contest, there will be many other opportunities to try it one more time.
Starting is never easy, we must continue working hard to achieve our dreams and that reality becomes the desired expectations.
Greetings and good vibes for everyone. Do not give up!
