Well, I've been busy in the corporate world. Gotta work for some achieving targets for the people, or better call them yuppies or young professionals that I develop. Managing them is a bit exhausting but they are the ones who are doing the job for us hit bull's eye. I am just behind planning and developing.
With tiring days and more coffee concoctions on our way, stealing some time for a break maybe just fine to reward this peeps for bringing out their best behind the bar, espresso bar

I had just a few more days to spend in the US. I was running out of time. Since I’ve spent two days in Death Valley, I had only one day for Sequoia and Yosemite National Parks. It is crazy to try cover both for a day and I don’t recommend to rush through the parks that way. The only thing that made me feel better was that I didn’t have winter equipment and there was plenty of snow at the end of January

The effort must be in what we know best to do to achieve the best results, using the tools at hand … Many people ask me: what is the best way to achieve growth in Steemit .

If you cannot struggle to learn, then you can never earn, you have to be steadfast, punctual, and up and doing... Be yourselves owner, do not let nobody control you, instead, allow them to direct you if you've missed your mark, and utilize the direction effectively
You've heard the old saying, “keeping up with the Joneses...”, right? Well in this post
Standard Image Sourcing for the Qurator Project
@brumest wrote an nice and simple post about how to properly source images in order to pass the approval process for the Qurator Project. We see quite a lot of members who get rejected by not using the right images or sourcing incorrectly. We are bringing the hammer down on new and old members. We need to up the quality of posts and in that way up the rewards as well. We know that this might not be the most fun thing to do but in the long run it will pay off, being a respected Steemian/Qurite.Standard Image Sourcing for the Qurator Project

RIP Streemian and hello Steemauto! The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto.
We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P
