I hear this complaints from new steemians again and again
I want to grow my blog, but i just don't have the time
Most Steemians have Day jobs that keep them away during the day,most just drop in at night to post and engage with people
But what You really have to do is to sit and ask yourself what "I don't have enough time really means"
Most time Yoy have this feeling of scarcity when it comes to time, but the truth is that most times You never spend your time wisely
You always find your self conceeding the little time you have to various distractions like Youtube and Social Media
So you really need to ask yourself " Is my time scarce or Not"
I have found out that "I don't have time" is often a cloak for something else nagging at the back of Our minds
Uncertainty
You are not sure that if You make that post that it would get read or make the amount of SBD you desire
Quick Thought Experiment
Imagine if you were given an assurance that spending three hours on your Steemit blog everyday would bring you amazing returns
Or you were assure of Whale Upvotes for every post you make
Would you struggle to find those hours
I am definately sure that your calendar would amazingly become free and Scanty
But right now, everytime you sit in front of your computer, a zillion questions would be running through your mind
Is this the right headline
Is my post good enough
Are most of my followers online to see this post, or would it get lost in the Steemit Abyss
Certainty Is The Wrong Goal
Knowing the full result of an action before you take it is a very appealing notion
But there are very few things worth doing that comes with 100% guaranteed result
Even if you were given a full guide on building a blog, you will still experience uncertainity

Why do Steemians still experience uncertainty
Asking The Right Questions
Instead of asking the questions above, there are some important questions you need to be asking
Questions Like:
Who is my target audience?
What are their desires,goals ,fears and problems?
How will i be of value to them?
Finding the answers to this questions requires time and You feel that you don't have enough of time
The Number One Thing You Need
To get the answers to these questions, you need One thing
Motive
You need to find out why you are blogging in the first place
Now I know that the number one motive on steemit is to make money
But you have to keep that by side and find out how you can be of value to others, because when you find that out, that is when you get the money
Finding out the role you are playing in the development of this platform will be of great value to you
I for example welcome new users and give them a chance to earn something and interact with others through the Fifty word Story Contest for new Steemians
I also run weekly interviews that enable them learn from the Older Steemians
You have to gain absolute Clarity of what you can do to help on this platform
Doing so can bring you all what you desire and more
Maybe it means you can finally quit that job that takes a huge chunk of your time
