LEARNING FROM EXPERIENCE; A DETERMINANT OF HOW FAR YOU'LL GO.

It's it's been like a year and five months for me on the blockchain, and I want to emphasize something, and this is the fact that the ability to know how to earn isn't really what helps you attain longevity, longevity in the sense that "a pattern of remaining relevant on the blockchain, not how much, but how consistent the people on the platform consider you to be" some people think they don't need to give a Shit about other people but the truth is that the platform makes earning inter-depedent on other fellow steemian, in other to fulfil this true decentralisation. The truth is, this platform promotes free speech, but if you become overly blabbering and overly outspoken, your contents will suffer and you will earn a negative reputation at a massive scale and this means you'll stop becoming relevant and when you do, it's over.
The truth is that nothing is fair anywhere, and accepting that it isn't too on the blockchain is Te best thing that'll happen to you, from my experience, do not compare other people's earnings to yours even if they post Shit, try as much as possible to be objective when proving a point, don't be overly abusive, apologise when an arguments becomes an altercation because the platform embraces a more humble person, it embraces a more realistic and truthful people and when you do things based on emotion and sentiment, then you'll be lost in your own nirvana on the blockchain Accepting the capitalistic feature of the blockchain is really essential, they'll always be the rich, the average and the poor, and accepting your position and striving hard to become better is far more better than ranting and blaming the system, because even If you're right on the system being unfair, what other plans do you have to carve for yourself? What creativity can you bring to spark up and unlock opportunisties for yourself?
I spent all night reading comments and hell my battery is in 5% and electricity is bad here, that's a clear indication of bad governance exploitation but complaining won't make it better, the truth is life can be Shit but we'll still choose to live it, rather than die, so also let's take away our so called free speech and focus on helping #steem grow and moon and this in turn help us instantaneously, my point is that there is no need kicking oneself in the foot, being violent and fighting everyone on the blockchain, obviously experience can be a teacher, but sometimes it can be a very too late for you, study the happenings on the blockchain, the flag wars and the ego wars, take no part in them, because you may be flagged to eternity, and for what reason? Absolutely nothing!
My opinion may be that something isn't right, but I'll maintain a clear conscience, hoping for a better #steem future, please learn today, in other to stay spotless, clean and viably relevant on the blockchain, else you'll find yourself regretting every statements you've made here.
People who dependent on others/system will not make it anywhere not just on STEEM
Also true for complaining and bitching
Awesome point noted, I saw so much while reading some blogs in the night, and I saw a lot of complaining, accusations and altercations and it took me time to realise that this is sheer backwardness and will not take anyone anywhere, thanks for your input
You are absolutely right. Over here, sometimes we may not see the light to charge our phone and post, yet we manage to post. Over here, data is so expensive that one month data finishes in 3 days. Over here, though steem is very cheap here, it is still very expensive for us because of our exchange rate. It's even more difficult when you get little after a good post and no cash at the end of the day. I just want to encourage every Nigerian consistent on this platform. I know its not easy but if you believe something can come out of this, maybe not now, maybe in 3 years from now, then keep striving.

Hey dude this is some really good advice here, and just what I needed today! I was thinking about how to grow my blog and platform, sometimes a good post of mine gets no upvotes then a single image gets lots. I guess making connections and stuff will really help :) I’m getting there!
Happy 1 year and 5 months! I have just passed the year mark 😀
You'll get there, just remember that speaking out of frustration against the blockchain will take you farther away from getting relevant on the platform
Yes exaclty ! :) thanks :)
