Charles, this is not a kiss ass response, but sincere. I've always hated motivational speakers and the like. Thought they were con artists. Lately though I'm starting to see that they are right. You are a case in point. I remember when you joined not too long ago and for some reason I followed you. I read many of your posts and started taking things in instead of dismissing them as another motivational guy. Now I've even started doing some things you've suggested and it's really helping me out on Steemit. I'm investing in my account, $20-$40 a week just like you are doing, but on a smaller scale. This has increased my voting power substantially.
Now I get it man. People can show you the way, but you have to make the choice to follow the path or stay bitter, jaded at the world. If you can do it, we all can do it. Thanks dude.
What's up @rt395... yeah just been here for about three weeks, just been grindin it out and making tons of relationships with awesome steemit people. Going slow and having patience is the way to go, I plan to buy more steem power so I can start giving back to my peeps! Thanks for your post, very motivational! π
