So confused, that I dont even care :D
Wow. What a plethora of information for a newb to digest! I can't EVEN! I just can't!
I don't even know where to start. I've read articles on bitcoins and learned I'm a dumbass for not buying them back in the day when they were 15 bucks a pop.
I learned I should have made the move from Facebook a looooooong time ago, and maybe I wouldn't be so clueless now.
And most of everything else I've read taught me I am easily overwhelmed by too much information at once. It's like the old iRC game, nine degrees of Wikipedia, where you take two unrelated topics (say global warming and starwars) and see who can find a way to click/connect them in the least amount of links. Note to readers: I never managed it because I'm easily distracted and ended up reading about the white house burning down, or polynesian ancient cultures... or TMNT.
ANYways. My philosphy for Steemit is that I'm going to wing it. Bitcoins.. meh. We'll see what sticks to my brain. Not going to worry about it. I'm going to have fun, read articles and upvote when I do. I'm going to follow people with insightful ideas, get distracted by shiny objects, click links and upvote those that reply to my random blog entries.
For content, I'm going to keep things positive and uplifting, things I am passionate about, my progress on what I am learning here about Steemit-including who taught me and why their system helped me!
Sounds like an excellent plan!
A good way to be "successful" on Steemit is to read other people's blogs and post thoughtful comments. This earns you followers and upvotes faster than anything else (unless you're a celebrity).
Posts with photos get the most attention, so you may want to consider adding one when you write.
For example, here's a beautiful sunset
Thanks for the advice! You know how sometimes you talk before thinking? And don't end up being very clear? That's what this post was. Great idea... forgot a picture lol. Lesson learned!
