Jerry Banfield - Why the guy in the prayer T-shirt keeps coming up Tops!
Steemit's Favorite Son
Have you ever wondered why Jerry Banfield keeps coming up as a favorite on Steemit? Why his articles are always trending? Especially, since there are many other members out there earning more than Jerry. More per post, more per day and more over all time. What is the ingredient, or ingredients that keep producing the desired result? By Jerry's own admission, he is often nervous preparing a new post. He knows that he is under pressure to perform, since he has such a reputation and history on Steemit.
So What is it?
Jerry has what few others have or can do, and that is the ability to place passion and commitment ahead of money. Even though there is money being made, it is exactly that! The money is being made, not chased. On visiting many blogs on Steemit, you can almost smell the absolute desperation to make money. Desperation that incites people to chase, to apprehend this elusive substance we know as money. The truth is, if you choose to chase money, you will only discover one thing: that money can run faster than you! Money is like a woman in the way that it views desperation. Desperation from a man is distasteful and to be avoided.
This Simple Truth
Desperation makes you the follower, while passion makes you the leader. Passion puts you in front. Passion is infectious. Passion is also able to light a passion in others, like a fire. Many people are repelling potential followers through their absolute desperation to make money, while Jerry is attracting people through an infectious spread of fire. A passionate fire, a passion for what he does. It is very clear when you listen to Jerry speak that he has a knowledge undergirded with passion and dedication. Well done Sir, in the event that you may ever read this post. Thanks for your example.
