History repeats itself is a very familiar word, and in most cases when it repeats itself, it does that sad kind of way.
Many are constraint by their own traditional beliefs and fears. They see an impossible streak that has trailed them from generation till date and they are confident with their stake in humanity. They see themselves as that set that must be counted as the normal.
You have to step out of history because it does nothing but hold you back. History is meant to be on the pages of books where you go to and improve on it making sure it doesn't repeat itself in your case.
History says,
earning on the internet is for a select few and that the earnings everyone should be having and continually getting used to is fiat, but some persons stepped out of history and created a decentralized internet that says otherwise.
Today, while still having Facebook dominate, we have Steemit giving everyone a chance at the gold mine the internet holds. While history says the Government determines how we earn and live, free willed individuals are disrupting that foundation and are mining their earnings here on Steemit like they are the Central Banks themselves.
While your mind tells you, you cannot make money on Steemit, you are still here waiting it out and hoping to get your audience that will appreciate your work and pay you. That surely is not historic.
History is good, but it should remain History. Now is the Now, and you must make move to do that thing different from what you have been told is obtained.
Write how you feel, write the way you talk, write on those things that excites you even if you are the only one it excites, write it. Let go of your inhibitions and be a STEEM in your own right.
Don't live in historic themes, create something that will go down in history, so your generation will have one to talk about, look into to develop their future.
Make the world a better place for someone today!
