Why I powered up while Steem and SBD have fallen

I have now been on Steemit for a few months and in that time I have learned so much. I must say that being on Steemit has given me the confidence to not only give Rudi (Hive account@luxury-sa) my blessing to start trading and investing in crypto currency but also to join Dtube and focus my efforts not only on YouTube but also on this very promising platform that I have come to love so much over the past few months.

Now I am not a financial adviser nor am I continuously busy watching markets or teaching on financial trading ,but today when I checked in to my account -which at one point was worth close to $1700 and was at under $1000 this morning- I decided to do the best thing I new how to.

I decided that instead of transferring away from Steemit to invest in another crypto-currency or to withdraw and buy myself some new pants for my growing waisteline, I decided that I believe in the potential of Steemit. And so I could do no other thing than transfer my SBD to Steem (while it was still stronger) and power up to show my support.

Yes, I do hope to make an income off of Steemit ad Dtube one day like so many whales do- I mean who doesn't? But for now I am willing to continue to promote the platform to my fellow bloggers and creators. Because I believe this is it- this will be the next big thing. This platform will one y take over ll other social media sites- and then I would like to be one of those whales that we all follow and comment on in hopes of getting a glimpse of their attention.

So for now that is it. I just wanted to inspire those who are discouraged by the turn from a rising account to a dropping account value. It will turn again and it will grow again. Be an early adopter and do not fade away.
