If you find steemit difficult, look at how rewards are created. I find that the more I give, the more I receive. 👀
Here illustrated by a screen shot from steemdb.com:
It surprises me sometimes how some think saving their voting power like it was gold. Surprise! It's not! It's regenerated all the time. Especially when you're not steeming. And in periods of inactivity it goes to waste. So my goal is all the time to use some of my vote power on my followers (quite much in fact) and on developers that make steem functional. Without them, things would quickly become obsolete.
Without you my friends, nothing would be read and giving has boosted the income and the purpose of doing what I do.
Using the vote is almost like mining proof of work currencies, only on a personal level. This way, I can have a bad day, a busy day and still not let my power go to waste. Because the power will never, ever exceed 100%.
I've had a bad day, people. I feel like I need a break. But I think it would not be wise to rest now. There are exciting times ahead for steem and steemit. I would hate myself for missing out. I have a ton of ideas that needs reshaping and I should create some new stuff. But it has turned out to be very exhausting to get into the "four posts a day" habit. But seeing the statistics makes me realize that without you, especially the loyal followers it would be a feeble attempt on my behalf.
I power up as much as I can at the moment to give more in the future. I have bought back some of the steem I invested in bitshares. To have more to give also tomorrow.
