"It's not about how fast and how far you have to go. It's about digging deep and pushing yourself to keep moving forward."
Growing up, until 2013, I easily gave up on every opportunity that I have. I give up because it's hard; because others don't see me as worthy to be there; I give up because I'm bored; I gave up because I allow other voices to be louder than my own.
I have many opportunities that I've wasted because I easily gave up on things before. As you can see, the picture below perfectly explains everything that I did. I was that old, bald man wearing white long sleeves and brown necktie. I gave up not knowing that I am one step closer to my breakthroughs.

REASONS WHY I SHOULD NOT QUIT WRITING EVEN IF I'M ONLY EARNING A FEW CENTS TO A DOLLAR
Happier Than Before
Since I started writing daily, in form of a blog post or comments, I am excited and happier to wake up each day. I'm excited to read and interact, especially posts and comments from the people I am following.

Sense Of Accomplishment
Every time I published, I have this feeling that I achieved something great today and that feeling last for a long time. I became addicted to Steemit. No matter how busy I am, I always find time to check my Steemit account. I seldom open my facebook account to the point that one of my friends ask me through facebook chat if I'm still alive.

Observe Number Of Progress
Since I joint Steemit I learned a lot of skills and I saw a lot of improvement in myself. Many Steemian pointed out qualities that I know I don't have before. Like for example me being so organized. I laughed so hard when I read it in the comment section on my post for I know deep inside I am not organized at all. But looking at how I managed to track every accomplishments and goal here on Steemit, I should agree that I am now becoming organized than ever before.

Meet Wonderful People & Create New Friends
This one of the best platforms to meet and make friends with intelligent people. I say intelligent for I haven't met anyone who is rude and disrespectful of other people's post. Yes, there are people who honestly tell you what they want and what they don't want, and you learn something from them. Unlike the comments and posts that you will see on Facebook. You can find people with common interest and you'll be very excited to read their posts knowing that it's not a "garbage" post.
You'll see people who tried their very best to write and share the things that they wanted to share even if they are not that good in writing and you'll appreciate their efforts in trying. I, myself is not that good at writing but I tried to give my 101% when I make a content. Through our content, we are able to find interesting people that could change our perspective and all which makes Steemit more addictive and enjoyable.

Learn New Things Every Single Day
Because there are many people writing daily on Steemit with a diverse genre, we are able to learn many things from each other's posts. I, myself read more than 5 posts a day. Let say I read 5 posts per day, in a year, I manage to read 1,825 articles. Can you imagine what kind of person you are becoming a year from now if you apply even a hundred lesson of what you learned?

Opportunity To Inspire & Teach
Nothing is more fulfilling knowing that you help and save someone's life just by inspiring and teaching them. Words are so powerful. It can bend and mend people. And I am so happy that people here in Steemit use their words to mend people.

Steemit is not just about earning money. It's creating a wonderful community that can potentially change not only the online world but also our world. Through Steemit, we can potentially change the world to make it a better place to live not just for us, but for our next generations to come.
Steemit can transform us into becoming the best version of ourselves. And that alone is a very powerful reason to continue writing. It can actually save you money because you may not need a Psychiatrist to talk about your problems and difficulties because there are communities in Steemit that can actually listen and inspire you. I'm not saying that you no longer visit your Psychiatrist and make Steemit as an alternative but Steemit can lessen that possibility of you making visits to your Psychiatrist.
