Hi, Mind Miners!

Today is the start of our FRIDAY QUOTE where I will be choosing one quote about any of the following:

MISTAKES/BAD DECISIONS

FAILURE

DIFFICULTIES

CHALLENGES

GRIT

I will be doing this to constantly remind you and myself that these things are part of growinh up and they are the main ingredients to our future success.

How's your goal, the new hobby/ies you want to create, your business that you just started, or how's your steemit account? Did you publish any article yet? How many articles can you publish in a week?

If you are able to publish 2-3x per week then that's good. If you are able to publish 4-5xper week, that's great. If you are able to publish 6 or more post per week, YOU'RE AWESOME!

The beginning is always the hardest. It's not important if you have advanced or basic talent when it comes to writing or anything that you do. You need not become a genius to succeed in steemit. All you need is your WILLINGNESS.

The willingness to invest your TIME learning the system and how it really works. The willingness to write for hours. The willingness to genuinely interact with others without being spammy. The willingness to read other posts. The willingness to build long-lasting friendship, and the willingness for delayed gratification.

Steemit is not an overnight success nor an overnight riches. Steemit is like a blog on WordPress, blogger, etc. You need to plant your seeds the right way so you may be able to enjoy the fruits later on. Start small steps until you find the right momentum. Don't compare or compete with other steemian. Compete with yourself instead.

Based on what I learned in a normal blog site, you need to wait 6 months to a year before you can start earning real income. Others do earn in less than 6 months becausr of their dedication and hard work.

I like Hive account@enazwahsdarb post that he published 2 days ago, The 10x Rule! Now. 10x Your Life!! Part 1 where he discussed the main concept and theme of Hive account@grantcardone's book called, "THE 10X RULE."

Based on what I've read and learned, if you expect a 10x result then you should put your 10x effort. You can't just expect to earn $$$ without even understanding how steemit system really works or without even creating quality content and without genuine interactions to others. If you want that much then BE WILLING.

DON'T GIVE UP! I know it's hard. I know that it is confusing but that's NORMAL. The beginning is always the hardest. It's messy in the middle but very beautiful and worth it in the end.

Continue writing even if it's hard because that's the only way to make writing and publishing easier. It will not happen overnight but it will.

I wanted to share my story on how I fell in love with writing, but I will reserve it for my MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY POST so watch out for that one.

Talk to you again tomorrow for my SATURDAY PROGRESS REPORT.
