I've been writing on and off for the last 10 years. I have never become popular on the internet with it though. It has been frustrating. I feel like Steem could be my second chance at it. I'm not having a ton of success yet, but then again it is only day four.
I guess the main problem is thinking about the money. A writer should write because they enjoy to do so. I need to find that in my heart. I always looked at myself as writer, even though my grammar and punctuation aren't the best. I guess it's frustrating when you put a lot of time into a post and not may people get to read it.
It is important to find a niche in your blog and stick with it. For me it would fall into the subject of conspiracy theories, politics, and philosophy.
I always question life, how society works, and why people do things they do. What are out motivations? What is really important in life? Does going to school for 10 years make you a better person than someone who went straight to work. Is going to school really important? Can you learn without school? That is a better question.
I believe you can learn without school, I have. I've come to realize how backwards our system is. People are taught that immoral actions are good. We are taught that wars are started for peace. We are taught that spending is good for the economy. We are taught that abortions are a woman's right and we should praise them for the killings.
What's wrong with this world? I'm sitting here not just making up some post, I really want to talk about serious things. I hope my posts do end up reaching people. I have so much to talk about and so much input. I never expressed my opinions when I was a young kid. I had so much social anxiety. As I get older my anxiety goes away more. I really enjoy writing it brings a peace to me. It is the easiest way for me to express myself.
I've never stuck to blogging long term, I really hope Steem keeps me on track. The great thing about Steem is it makes it easier for your blog to noticed since it is a feed.
Just hoping for a little motivation and encouragement.
