http://i.imgur.com/WqvDzgA.jpg ## Work your butt off! ----------- Sometimes there is no other way to get things done. Quality content will often get overlooked until a user builds themselves up in the steemit community. Often, this will take a lot of hard work, for a *very* long time. Eventually (and hopefully) there may be a return on that investment. https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://i.imgur.com/uVNBbyL.jpg ## VIDEO 12 – WORK YOUR BUTT OFF --------------- https://youtu.be/1zEKJQsOxX0 https://img1.steemit.com/0x0/http://i.imgur.com/uVNBbyL.jpg In this video I mention a post I made about nine months ago. I think that it is a high quality post full of original and rare content. The total payout was 54 cents. Of that 54 cents, my cut as the author was 43 cents. The content was not lacking. https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://s14.postimg.org/ps0r88h2p/20160831_204551.jpg https://steemit.com/photography/@papa-pepper/blacklight-scorpion-unedited-and-awesome I use this post as an example of something that happens to a lot of us. While the 43 cents may not be impressive, it is way more than other sites are offering me. Also, it is not an *individual post* that I am concerned about, it is a username and blog history. Eventually, I got a return on that *investment*, but only because I continued. Do not be discouraged, just work your butt off. http://i.imgur.com/CtSmf9i.jpg This is a photo of my bleeding hand covered in grass clippings as I worked my butt off yesterday. I'll be doing the same all day today!
