Steemit is truly an unbelievable platform, I love that we are slowly weeding out these gatekeepers in life, Allowing us to pursue exactly what we want, Yet get compensated fairly for it.

I've been Self publishing For a year now, It's incredible that I don't have to sit around and wait for a massive publisher to reject me or tell me what I can or cannot write! I have made a lot of money self publishing and I couldn't be more thankful.
I see Musicians Making money selling their music ON THEIR OWN! It's pretty incredible.
There are thousands of examples. Now Steemit is literally icing on the cake! We can share smaller ideas and stories, make money and NOT write a large book, No one dictates what we can and cannot write, We are free to express ourselves.

Without Steemit I WOULDN'T be blogging, I already made that decision as I started growing my business and I realized that blogging wasn't really doing much for me, It can take years for your blogging to generate revenue, and when you want to leave your job FAST this isn't always the best pathway to take!

Now I can blog, write, draw, and run my online store happily and in peace, Because of Steemit. I feel free! What other gatekeepers can we remove from our lives?
