The Art of Getting Into The Flow of Posting

Getting into the flow of posting can be a tricky thing.

• Writer's block.
• Being unsure of yourself.
• Doubt if anyone cares.
• Doubt if what you're posting has any validity.
• Lack of imagination.
• Lack of any creative spark, innovation, or life experience(s).
  

These all factor into having difficulty to posting on Steemit. The other would be being busy with life, day job or family. But as a money maker, Steem and Steem Dollars is the only cryptocurrency that is the one true constant.

So are any of the above really an excuse? No.

Making a post doesn't have to take as long as you think. Would 30 minutes to 1 hour really be that time consuming if it was making you anything from $10-30 in upvotes? What's that on the exchange right now... $40-70 USD? Not bad right. And that's just one post.

As long it's made with:

• love,
• is original,
• and offers value,
  

...then it's all good. For some creating a post is put on a pedestal and for that their personal requirements meet extremely high standards. They may be a journalist providing detailed, intriguing, informative, or entertaining content within their chosen fields. However, for the average joe, this is not the case.

So what is a post?

A post can be anything. It can be:

• A blog.
• Newsletter recycled in the form of marketing your product or business.
• A video.
• A review.
• Analysis.
• Coding.
• Art.
• Photography.
• Whatever, you name it.
  

Planet Steemit has SO MUCH that you can play in. You're going to find something that you can get into fast and easy.

Get into the daily habit of posting and monetizing on things you're already doing. If you're a gardener or into permaculture, for example, take: 

• Quality photos.
• Document what you're doing.
• Write tutorials.
• Share tips.
• Forecast.

It's your profession/hobby and something you're already doing!

If you're like @thecastle and developing a video game, make posts around the development of your game like he does. Showcase behind the scenes and market it. These are just example but you get the idea.

Another and perhaps more natural way to get into flow is to have a pen and paper ready or open Word. As soon as a whim of an idea pops in, flow with it. Often flowing with an idea in the moment leads to great things. You'll organically muster things to say that you never thought you would through conventional planning. This serves as a starting point. If you can't follow through for whatever reason, sit on it and more will come to you. But what's important is that you started. With practice and persistence, you'll get there.
