This is so funny, as I just posted something which brings up the very principle behind what you are saying, that being the value you place on the efforts and thoughts you place in your own posts.
I certainly have started questioning if anything I have to say is of any value, (not being negative) just wondered about that, but at the same time.
I am not hung up on the reward placed on something I post, rather that I have a platform to express ideas freely, But as I said in my post, it still is nice to get a good response, and a reward is certainly a welcome bonus, lol
stay blessed.
Hey @michaeljn! I just read you post and answered your questions on there, I hope that it sheds some light on those topics, let me know if you have any more questions!
I totally understand the feelings in terms of rewards, I actually started posting back around August, but got discouraged that I wasn't getting any rewards, so I quit. But then I returned to Steemit around November and decided to put some money where my mouth was and I got some delegations and I also bought Steem Power, which has greatly increased my level of rewards here. I think it's really important to also post consistently and post great content.
Just read it, thank you again for taking the time out to reply, much appreciated :-) Have some more information to help improve my efforts. you a star.
