RE: Busy vs productive
There is is thing with Nigerians or should I say with some persons in general
When the have to pay physical cash for something that will benefit them...they come up with excuses by either seeing fault in the process or that they don't have the needed amount to start
When that same thing that will benefit them is free but require little personal effort ...they slack away or wait till you do it for them.
The only thing that spur some persons to action is when that thing is not only free but also requires no personal effort. Little did they know that whatever that is free and requires no effort has far less limited durability.
They moment you tell some persons about making money on steemit they go super interested, but tell them the effort needed ...you will see the excitement die a natural death..
True, or people only become interested when they see tangible money. If you start paying rent with Steemit money then they will become 100% ready to start steeming.
You are right. But do you know it gets harder day by day?. Except when such new people can afford to buy thousands of steem and power up. Imagine in 2016, your post could be earning as much as 8000 usd. Although steem and sbd was lower then. So it means, If you consistently earn like 10,000 usd on a post and you didnt power down since then, you would naturally become a whale now. But now, without whale upvote, crossing 10 usd is like all time high in my case...
I wasn't here in 2016 to notice that kind of difference in earnings. But that's incredible that posts were earning that much , it makes me wonder if posts will continue to earn less with time. I hope not
I was not here either. I was busy chasing other things. Lol. A brief search on some long standing steemians will bring those details. Since everything is on blockchain.
I hope not as well.
I am waiting to see what the upcoming hard fork will bring.
Me too🤞
