RE: The Movement: Striving to Thriving. Who's in?

I will admit, I agree with your little example story here, I get it and I see value in it and it is a major goal I strive for, to get to the point. But I disagree with you that its saying its not a matter of opinion. It's your formed opinion about the percentage if the quality within the content and how that is measured. Says who? You.

I am not a professional writer. And I'm certainly one that doesn't always follow the rules. I do not edit my work very often (other than looking for mistakes or minor things), in the future maybe I will ... I free write as it flows and I like that style of writing for the time being.

There are many videos out there right now that are way longer than they need to be to get a point across, (In my opinion) but I don't think it takes away the value. Maybe it just took the person that long to talk through the subject.

As I said, I get what you're trying to say, but lets remember, you did say you only "made through the first paragraph or so" of this post, because it's going to take you so long to read it, yet you've spent a significant amount of time trying to get your own point across about my post being too long.

If you have the expectation that everyone here on steemit should be professional writers with short articles, I think you're going to be disappointed..
