I would consider myself a "creator". I have a comparatively low reputation score and amount of Steem power due to the fact that I have very limited time to spend on Steemit. I work a lot at my job and I have a wife and kids, so I only have about an hour each day to be on here. The Steem I have earned is from writing post after post, curating, and interacting with other users. Some of my posts yielded little reward, while some did well. But I continue working away here because I believe in Steemit and the value of quality, creative content. It seems a lot of new users immediately power up their account by buying Steem Power rather than earning it through repeated quality posts. I don't want to say that is wrong, but I believe there is more honor in working for Steem Power rather than simply buying it.

I agree that it is more rewarding to earn your Steem Power rather than buy it!
1 hour a day is a lot considering your circumstances. Such content creators like you should be appreciated and rewarded for it. I have a lot of appreciation for users like you.
Thank you, I appreciate that.
Amen!! Well said. I see your name a lot, I appreciate what you do. BD
Thank you! I believe in Steemit and our awesome group of users like you!
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Very nicely said, congrats!
I too bought around 3k SP but I have worked for the rest (I have 12K now) and feel good knowing I have worked hard, and people did like what I had to say. That alone keeps me at it!
12k -- very nice. I feel like I am falling behind the pack because I cannot make the time commitment to use Steemit more. But then again, I should stop comparing myself to others and make the most of the time I do get. I do get satisfaction from seeing how many upvotes I get on some posts, too! The numbers amaze me.
