Summing up Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

If you are here for the money you have a long way to go. I bet you joined because of the possible rewards. I bet you even checked the Trending Section before signing up and thought:"Easy peasy lemon squeezy, I can do that!".

The fact of the matter is that it's not that easy. We Steemians don't have an easy life as we are expected to have a live outside of steemit. But the world doesn't understand us and we don't want to understand the world.

That's why I decided to sum up Steemit for you so you can tell your parents, friends, partner and kids why you are living like quasimodo lately.

That feeling when someone tells you the first time about Steemit

When they tell you about the Rewards

But you get curious and look for yourself just to see the trending section

So you sign up in the hopes to get rich quick

Only to be hit by reality that no-one likes you yet

Start questioning everything

Eventually you decide to try one more time

So you try to submit better posts

When you find out about Discord or Steemit.Chat

Then you meet people like you

When you finally get some rewards

Suddenly you realize you have been awake for 5 days straight

When you get recognized by your first Whale

Finally you reach rep 50 and feel like a king (or queen)

The feeling you have when you reach 500 followers

When you hit your first $100 Post

When you are around longer than a month

When you have finally gathered a group of people around you to grow together

When you are a Whale and you get smothered by upvoting requests

And your Direct Messages look like these

But in the end it all is worth it

It would appear that you nailed the puzzle...

Sure hope so :D

With a lil bit of faith, luck and chance those who do will be able to enjoy the spoils of their hard work. Raising the bar to provide something other than mindless dribble (not that mindless dribble doesn't have it's place).

What if you put a lot of work into your first posts can you repost but because you are new no one finds them or sees them? I do not want people to miss out on my content because it's buried.

You totally nailed it. Hahaha. Thanks for the laugh.

I love nailing it 😎

Haha, you gave me a good laugh here! Thank you @cem !

Glad you enjoyed it 😁 Tho I believe much of these will not be custom to you. Ihr habt den ersten "Whale" schon in der Tasche 😎

Everyone's here for the money (at least in the beginning). This platform would be unknown otherwise. A great way to sum up Steemit with the use of interesting GIFs.

Hello! I just upvoted you! I help new Steemit members! Upvote this comment and follow me! i will upvote your future posts! To any other visitor, upvote this post also to receive free UpVotes from me! Happy SteemIt!

Luckily I understand like anything else there is a barrier to success and there needs to be an equal amount of work and perseverance to succeed.. personally I'm just happy to be part of this awesome community

That of course but I couldn't find a suitable gif 😎

hahaha nice!

Clever. I do approve.
