Today will be about a secret that I greatly wish you'd understand. I will be saying some things that would mean more than it sounds on the surface. I would mean it to be a paradox.

It has occurred to me that the it takes a high reputation to go viral and earn more on steemit but it also takes going viral to earn a higher reputation.

So we can't say that, you can't earn more without going viral but also remember that going viral is a precondition for you to earn more.

• We copy tags but we don't copy or imitate to the content that makes the content fit under that category of tag.
• We fasten our eyes on the dollar but never take time to study what makes that post earn that amount.
• We get discouragement from the only place we have to learn and be inspired.

One of the many things I love about the steemit is the level of transparency. There are no inner doors. Whatever there is to know is open to all and all the reasons and lessons for us to obtain is right before our eyes, only that we don't spend enough time roaming around to learn. And each time we even try to roam, we fasten our eyes on the dollar and allow ourselves to be discouraged never learning what makes a great post a great post.

We have to get to this point where it's all going to be to our advantage. Don't feel bad and start your little comoarism each time you see a post with high post reward, instead learn why it is so.

I wouldn't fail to admit that some posts are over rewarded but 8 out of 10 posts are duly rewarded. One reason over the other could compromise this principle and that is;

an imbalance between visibility and quality.

Makes so much sense each time we look around and find already existing lessons and wisdom to enable us improve on our lives. You can't reach the top if you decide to stop climbing half way to the top. And as we all know;

most people didn't fail to reach the top because they fell, but because they stopped climbing.

You can't boost your reputation without quality upvotes and you can't get quality upvotes without creating quality contents.

here's what I believe, someone out there's got some nice rewards for you. You just have to prove to them that you're worth it. Reputation can only be earned on steemit, they're never ascribed.

Make so much sense that you can't be ignored. I'm not talking about noise making that makes you vulnerable to flags. Make your pen bleed and never let the flows go to waste.

Thanks for visiting today, I will be going deeper into this later on.
