RE: Enter a whale's mind

I want to elaborate on my GIF making service:
I feel guilty for charging people SBD for my creative GIF making service. The reason for the guilt is that I was given a lot of Steem as an early adopter, and I also have given away a lot of my art for free in the past.
In order to for me not to feel guilty about receiving payment for my art services, I upvote my customers. In this way, my customers' reputation score is increased, they are compensated, and my guilt goes away. I still undervalue my artistic talents, and make of this what you will. I feel good about helping people have more artistic stuff for their blog and charging people cuts down on the people requesting me to do art for them. If I made it a 'free" service, I would not be able to do it, as I suspect I'd be getting too many orders.

You shouldn't feel guilty about getting paid to do a job.
