Hello every one mitch0403 here, i am writing my observation on my few weeks walks here in steemit.
Steemit as we thought is just as easy way, writing blogs, post and earn scheme. the way we look at whole picture is just so simple. But when you were on the steemit journey you will found that its not what we think it was. Because when we begun to post our blogs excitedly, and after an hour we check our feed we found out that a few just upvoted your blog. repeatedly doing so, and repeating checking feed happened with the same result honestly dries up excitement, gradually you will feel discourage and loss self steem, sad right?. Infact i have read more of about "to give up testimonies". of many of the steemians, who lost courage to persuade thier journey here steemit. when i read thier stories, i can relate so much the pain they went through, the pail of courage they shell out, just to give the best they could but seems nothing happen. you were just ignored, the feeling you were ignored? its frustrating, in steemit world i always hear the name"
Hive account@surpassingoggle" so i begun to ask others who is he in Steemit? and why many steemians believe in him, admire him so much, after learning from my steemit group and read from my fellow steemians blogs i found a noble guy with a big heart, an encourager, a friend, a moderator and a mentor. I remember of 
Hive account@maylyn09 inspiring story of giving up when she confess that shes at the peak of her emotion and decided to give up she confessed it to Hive account@surpassingoggle that shes giving up he just answered her "Too Lazy to give up." short word but full of meaning, and He also encourage her to read the STEEMSECRET and digest every content in it . I found out that steemsecret is the a great foundation for us steemians. especially us newbie before we start blogging I encourage that we need to read first the series of steemsecret to refrain from discouragement, and to set the mind that this journey is not about competing each other, but winning each other through sharing our opinions and stories. It is not how many upvotes you will earn after you post your blogs, but the opportunity to hear and learn from there stories, it is not about you oblige other to upvote you but allow them to read your stories, just gave them the freedom to know you by the content of your writings, and you will discover that steemit is a world of an never ending learnings and growing, steemit world is too big, in time through continue steeming I know there are someone out there, who will admire your content, they can relate your stories, inspired and even leave a smile on thier faces. we are an inspiration to everybody our blogs are not useless, there is always out there who can read and appreciate you. As you long as you have believe that you have a God given talent, your are happy with you are doing, as long as you are proud of your self that out from your experience you have made a nice stories and was able to share it with others thats matters most and be generous enough to read others post and dont afraid to share your vote dont expect in return and if they upvoted you back then its a blessing too. As long as you continue steeming there is no way for you get acknowledged because i always believed that each one of us has his its own Golden time to shine.
