It’s been a while since I’ve written about money.
I have to be honest here, I felt like I’d gone as far as I could with it.
I worked with hundreds of people on their money blocks.
Some had tangible results. Others didn’t
So, I became frustrated.
After all, I hadn’t left my cushy job as an owner/director of a financial planning form just to keep talking about the bish-bosh.
Besides, I had learned some amazing information about health and our ability to self-heal, so I wanted to share that.
However, the world turns.
Thoughts become things.
Well, the energy of financial abundance has now manifested in a new way in our reality.
This is hard to explain, so I’m just going to share the results.
I am now being rewarded with between $300-500 per week just by sharing information on subjects that interest me.
I am far from the only one.
There are THOUSANDS of content creators, sharing knowledge from recipes through to revolutionary acts.
We are uncensored and…….
WE ARE BEING PAID!
For our videos
For our podcasts
For our blogs
And, it hasn’t cost us a penny!
Not only that, we are all able to literally give FREE money to others who inspire us with their content.
Without spending any of our own money.
This is the power of BLOCKCHAIN technology.
I’m sure that you have heard about the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.
It has been portrayed as some kind of crazy, speculative investment.
That is doing it a huge disservice.
The technology involved is world changing.
I haven’t got any Bitcoin. I sure wish that I had bought some when I first heard about it back in 2011.
However, I do own STEEM.
It has even been a source of income for me.
And it cost me nothing to earn it, other than the time I used to create content on subjects that I love talking about anyway!
WHAT IS STEEM?
STEEM is a cryptocurrency that powers the Steem blockchain. Here is a description from the Steemit.com FAQ’s (Steemit was the first and is the biggest DApp hosted on the blockchain)
Steemit.com is one of the many websites (including Busy.org, DTube, and Utopian.io) that are powered by the Steem blockchain and STEEM cryptocurrency. All of these websites read and write content to the Steem blockchain, which stores the content in an immutable blockchain ledger, and rewards users for their contributions with digital tokens called STEEM.
Every day, the Steem blockchain mints new STEEM tokens and adds them to a community's "rewards pool". These tokens are then awarded to users for their contributions, based on the votes that their content receives. Users who hold more tokens in their account as "Steem Power" will get to decide where a larger portion of the rewards pool is distributed.
Effectively, this new, decentralised currency is being created daily to reward the contributors to the blockchain, whether through their creativity, entrepreneurship, carrying out the tasks that maintain the blockchain, such as running “witness” servers or even commenting on and curating content.
This is unique among social media platforms as, rather than the platform exclusively benefiting from your work and attention, for the benefit of their shareholders, Steemit and all of the other DApps (decentralised apps) enable the users of the platform to receive rewards for their attention and contributions.
It doesn’t stop with written posts. There are DApps covering most types of media, including:
DTube – Video platform similar to Youtube
DLive – Livestreaming and also video hosting
DSound – Sound platform, including new music, DJ mixes and podcasts
Steepshot – Photos and images, similar to Instagram
Zappl – Short, snappy posts, like Twitter
Fundition – An awesome crowdfunding platform, which will be superior to any that are currently out there.
And many more.
In fact, I will be using an incredibly useful Dapp when I post this blog. It is a Wordpress Plug-In called #steempress and it converts Wordpress blogs immediately into Steemit posts.
This is awesome for bloggers, as it now enables you to write on any subject and know that you will receive some form of payment for your work.
This is without selling or advertising anything!
In other words, it is extra income, for doing what you already do. Plus, a potential entire new following for your creative work!
Personally, I have had great success producing #dtube videos and #dsound podcasts. I have recently been inspired to create more content on Wordpress and therefore use the #steempress DApp as well.
If you are writing blogs on Wordpress, this is now an incredible opportunity to add a new revenue stream.
You can also convert your past blogs into Steemit posts using 
And, it has given me an extra incentive to write blog posts again, which has upped my blogging game and is great news for my website and online presence going forwards!

It’s been a bit quiet recently, as I’ve been moving house. However, you will see the Steempress posts, DTube Vlogs and DSound podcasts that I’ve been creating.
In addition, just today, I read about Fakebook shutting down many big accounts in the alternative and complementary health/spirituality arenas. One example, Collectively Conscious, a page that had represented 6 years of someone’s time, energy and money and had almost a million followers was just shut down without warning and had a generic email sent through to explain it.
Here is an article on that - https://globalfreedommovement.org/facebook-censorship-rampage-killing-alternative-pages/
There is just SO MUCH that I could say about the opportunity on the Steem Network. However, I hope that what I’ve said so far is enough to interest you.
In summary, some of the reasons I love the Steem Blockchain are:
- Decentralised and therefore largely uncensored (there are ways that vile content, such as child abuse etc can be removed)
- Creators AND curators/commenters can earn financial rewards
- Reaching a new audience – often free and alternative thinkers
- Being directly paid for what you would already be doing to promote your work, ideas, build credibility etc
- Generally positive interaction and much less trolling and argument than on other social media platforms
- An opportunity to get involved with and understand blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, without having to invest (other than time and energy). This is really important, as this tech is truly evolutionary and is already changing the way that many things are done
A few people have already asked me for 1-1 coaching in how to use the Steem blockchain to create inspiring content, reach new audiences and build financial abundance.
I learned what I know through trial and error and am now seeing good results after about 7 months of dedicated use. I’ve no doubt that I’ll continue learning more and more as both I and the platforms evolve.
So, if you’d like to take advantage of what I’ve learned and shortcut to your success on the platform, as well as break through any limiting beliefs about what might be possible for you here (using tapping techniques of course!), let me know.
You can email me at sam@eftnow.co.uk to book a quick chat and find out if this is for you.
One last point. I believe that blockchain technology is a true evolution in human consciousness. We are in the early days. However it is breaking the stranglehold that the banks currently hold on the world’s economy and creation of money supply.
Some of the systems are providing genuine alternative ways of governance, so we have many exciting opportunities here.
As one of my Steemit buddies, 
Steem on!
Please note that I am not a financial adviser these days and am not making any investment recommendations. However, if you are interested in using and understanding blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, without having to invest any of your fiat currency, the Steem blockchain is definitely worth a look!
