The @Mandelsage Challenge | Improving Engagement on Steemit | What Keeps Me Getting Up Every Morning?

What is the Mandelsage Challenge?

 
It is all about improving engagement on Steemit! Many of us focus so hard on creating that perfect post, with whatever we do be it art, writing, music, etc, that we forget that there are actual humans behind the posts, ourselves included, and that our followers might like to get to know us a bit more.

So the challenge is to take your camera and make a recording, sharing something with your followers. Your facial expression and/or tone of voice adds an extra dimension to this posting thing that is sorely lacking. (you don't necessarily need to put your face on camera ;) Be creative!) Some ideas you could use:

• Talk about something personal that's happening in your life.
• Talk about your last few Steemit posts... Has it been a good month? What went on behind the scenes?
• Choose a topic you feel strongly about, perhaps controversial, and get a discussion going.
• Do something completely different and creative from what you usually do... Sing! Interpretive Dance! XD

If lacking in inspiration, feel free to do one of the themes I've done so far:

• How I met My Wife/Husband/Girlfriend/Boyfriend
• My Most Precious Possessions
• What Keeps Me Getting Up in the Mornings?

The possibilities are endless. The point in the end is to add that human element. Show us who you are =)

This week, I'd like to challenge the following three Steemians to do the @mandelsage challenge:

@kiwideb
@tarazkp
@michelle.gent

And that's it! =) Once done, do these steps:

• Include a link back to this post.
• Grab your phone/camera and do the @mandelsage Challenge!
• Tag three Steemit friends, challenging them to do it too =)
• Use the #mandelsagechallenge tag.
• A resteem would be appreciated but not necessary.

I hope you like the idea and spread it far and wide ^^ ... Bye for now!
