My take on Steemit, you don't have to know it all.
I am a massive fan of Steemit and what it can do to change your life, but when I first joined the whole concept scared me. Me thinking I would have to learn about it all before I benefited held me back for quite a while.

Now there are a few, quite a few in here who know it all and reading some of there posts did put me off trying as it all sounded way to complicated BUT what I have realised is you don't need to know it all, aslong as you can write or have a talent you will do just fine here, yeah there are quite a few who are doing extremely well, that's because they know what there talking about and understand all the jargon. They write with experience.
My advice to anyone joining is.

Thank you :)
Amen!!! I've been here about 6 months and I still don't know much. I just read, upvote posts I like and comment... then I chunk out as much content as I can. I didn't see the cake I sent you on your birthday post!
Ohhh I ate it all lol its a scary site at first but you soon come round to loving it :)
LOL! I love it here... Where can you get $3500 for doing what you love???
Exactly, keep it up :)
So true, thank you, Karen! That's exactly what I'm doing and what I'm also trying to convey to others.
Brilliant, good to hear :)
This is what I needed to see! A simple post explaining how to go about things ☺️
Anything else I can do to help just ask. Enjoy it don't worry about anything :)
Great advice Karen! Thank you for sharing :) You got yourself a new follower!
Thank you that's great :)
Never give up.
That's important to remember. It's like trying to force open a door with a crowbar. Eventually it will crack right open and you can storm in shouting about how your Christmas presents were rubbish and how they are dead to you now.
Can't wait I like a good row lol
Hehe ;0)
Patience and consistency, right?
Absolutely, keep posting, reading and commenting and you will see the results
My thoughts exactly!
Nice advice, I can relate to your post. I don't know about all difficult things here just yet but I just go with the flow
Best way to use the site. IF you need to know something someone will tell you :)
Thanks Karen Solid advice, well put together.
