Last time I checked the day only had 24 hours and there is are a billion posts on here. WTF?
I hope you have a sense of humor and an upvote ready 'cuz we're kicking this bad boy off!
Look at you, you good conscious-ed human you, wanting to give more to the world! High-5 for karma points!
Pssssttttt the truth is, between you and I (of course), you also want to earn more.
I know it and you know it so don't try to deny it. That's why you're here! This is good! Now that we've got that covered, let's both start earning more right now!
Oh for goodness grapes... I'm not your sleazy salesman, I'm not selling you anything, trust me. I just know something that can help so if you want in on it, keep reading.
What if you could earn more while the posts you like also earn more? That's very generous of you to think of others too!
You go on with your day, you earn more and they earn more... they get rewarded for their passion driven hard work that you like enough to give your vote to and, you don't have to do any hard work to reward them, double win.
Sound interesting? Keep with me!
Do you feel like you just don't have enough time in the day? ... I know I hear people say that all of the time.
So, HOW do we MAKE MORE TIME?
Ready for some "radical candor?!"
The truth is going to be pretty intense!
Are you sure you're ready for it?
OK... Here it is...
THERE IS NO MORE TIME!
You've got 24 hours in a day. You have 7 days in a week. That is it. You have to be smarter than time itself to win this round my friends.
So what are we going to do? You can only read so much in a lifetime...
We apply technology. We adapt. We make the system work for us.
We start using what's available to us.
One of the things I get asked most is:
"how I have so much time to create so much high quality content."
You know me, I'm not putting no 2-minute effort, one-off drop shots up here with a hashtag, I'm pouring my heart and soul into my blog and spending tons of my time doing so while trying to maintain all of the things I do (and turn around and write about) in the real world.... yikes!
Shouldn't that kind of commitment of time, effort and dedication to the platform be rewarded?
I think so and I think that the creative and passionate authors on here that are putting their hearts into their work on here deserve our upvotes!
I'm sorry to bring out the elephant in the room people but holy jeep-us. This is crazy! The system as is right now is out of control.
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO KEEP UP WITH THE BAZILLION POSTS EVERY DAY!
I'm #sorrynotsorry, t's not.
Not unless you're a cyborg which I am not.... yet.
So what do we do?
I used to frown on this and think it was some sort of robotic cheating but you know what?
I owe so much of where I am now to people who believed in me enough to mark that button that does all the work for them.
I started off being lifted into the air with glitter and balloons by people who autovoted for me early on.
See technology is pretty nifty nowadays did you know?
By the way, you have 100% voting power that costs 2% per 100% full vote and replenishes 20% every single day!
So, now that we've talked about your voting power, do you know that when you use it, you get rewarded?
That's what a curation reward is. You get back a reward for giving your FREE vote to a post!
There are two ways I see it:
MO- MONEY!
You can follow people who you know do well and get high payouts because if you autovote on them, you'll be sure to earn curation from their successful posts.
Same goes for trails and fanbases.
FANS!
You like the author for whatever reason or you like their content so you just want to support them!
Easy right?
Now just to reiterate, your voting power regenerates, replicates, reproduces every day for free without you doing anything!
That means you have votes constantly available to you! Start clicking that UPVOTE!
Once you are in:
Afraid of commitment?
Add anyone you want to support here, you can pause it or delete the auto upvote at any time!
Once you've added a user:
Set up your settings on main page to decide how much voting power you want to use before it pauses. (I have mine on 70% so if I use 30%, my voter will pause until it rebuilds again.
Easy right?!
Now a couple of things are happening, by more voting happening this way, the platform grows because more of the digital worth is moving around = great for Steemit and for Steemians!
The authors you have chosen are being supported and now you don't have to worry about missing their posts while having more time to focus on whatever was keeping you from being able to keep up in the first place.
You can check what you are voting on at steemd.com/@username.
(I check this frequently and go to the posts I have voted on to read them/check them out!)
I also use @ginabot to tell me what's going on with my account! See my how to use Gina post here!
Hey, shameless, self-plug here since at present, this post has already taken over 4 and a half hours of my life...
If you're reading this (my post) and you value my content, I wouldn't be mad at you for adding me to your autovote account! It's really easy to set up and will only take a couple of minutes to do! ;)
I genuinely put my heart and soul into my posts no matter what topic they are on. I try to inspire and give you something of value that can impact your lives! Check out my blog to travel through my eyes, eat exotic, home-cooked, delicious meals, find inspiration in the world and see inside of my soul!
I know I can be high maintenance so if you don't have time for me, let technology take over for you!
If you got something from this post, let me know by throwing me an upvote, leaving a comment or adding me to your auto-vote account!
If we do our best to reward content creators who are putting in their time and energy into valuable content, this will help keep the value of Steem high, the community filled with posts people actually want to read and authors repaid for their contributions therefore willing to continue contributing which is what our big ocean needs to succeed!
I'm ending here at 10 minutes due to attention span constraints I know we all have with the limited amount of free time in a day!
