Steemit Is Easing My Financial Pressure - How I Handle The Pressure?

Although I get tired easily and sometimes give up even before I start, that has never been a pressure for me; instead, I see it as a weakness that I'm working to overcome. I'm not one of those who feels much pressure from anyone, or perhaps I just don't let myself feel pressured by anyone or anything easily. There are several factors that may put pressure on me, but one has gotten stronger over time.

I could say that my colleague has much more than I have, and even having their parents live with them puts pressure on me because I didn't get the chance to do so, but no! I've never let that get the better of me. Apart from not being able to pay what it is crucial that I get, there hasn't really been any pressure that has been too severe for me.

I say "I'm under financial pressure" because of this.

The stress has been present ever since I realized what I would need money for, and it only increased after I discovered how to generate it for myself. I've seen that the more money I make, the more expenses I have available to spend it on, therefore the adage "To whom much is given, much is expected" is only true. My little heart has been under pressure as a result.

Thanks to my parents' surprisingly strong support, I was able to manage the pressure from earning money to some extent.

It's a lot of pressure to cope with, especially when there isn't even a remote possibility that money would come from anywhere, so don't be shocked when you hear stories of individuals murdering themselves because of the difficulty of money and everything it includes. That's for them, then. As I have never allowed pressure to even make me consider hurting myself, I believe my heart to be far stronger than I realize.

How I handle the pressure that money puts on me

---

Since about two years ago, my parents were working hard to meet my needs at school, but it was never enough (every student will understand this). Despite this, I didn't let it hurt me deeply; instead, I just felt more pressure whenever I saw my schoolmates managing their finances much better than I was doing because they didn't have to.

Everything changed for me after I discovered Steemit.

Although I didn't start paying off all of my student loan debt with my Steem profits, the idea that I was making money helped to significantly lessen my pressure. Even though I may not be making as much money as some people, I have been able to alleviate myself of some financial stress that I had had and still have.

Even my friends, who I used to feel pressured about, were surprised at how much the Steem blockchain helped me with my money issues. I can't express how grateful I am to Steemit for making such a positive difference in my life, especially as I work toward financial independence (where I wouldn't feel pressure from not having any money).
