Very valid question @jakeswingle16, but it's just that people get disappointed when they don't find instant success and give up. It's always good to create a positive environment, and my recent posts are meant to do the same. The point is to be consistent and keep trying.
I was reading this wonderful article by @teamsteem. You should definitely check it out, even the comments section to get diverse viewpoints.
Thank you for reading and appreciate your feedback.

Good point @igsamuel. I guess i can agree that some people might need a sense of direction and disappointment may come easy but eventually it will come around for them if they try. I like to stay positive also but we have to realize this is still in the Bata phase, not even realeased onto the main steam yet. I get it why we want to beat the drum and get people's attention but i think in my opinion we're talking ourselves out of the game. It's like saying the same crazy things over and over. But i personally think that's ok, it's about like clickbait anymore. TRY to think outside the box. Let's try a different approach maybe? I love the effort but maybe some of us are working to hard on trying to convince people to stay when their already here. How about we try putting creative stuff out that will help them get a feel for something they may be interested in and spark their imagination and they may try something they have never thought of. That's all i'm saying, no offense to anyone and none taken. I love the steemit community and i'm meeting new people and am having fun doing something i like to do. One thing i can offer, have fun doing this and do it for yourself not for someone else. If your in it for the money, your in it for the wrong reason, but what you put into it, it will come back to you 10 fold at least. I'll be sure to catch the article by @teamsteem. Keep up the good work @igsamuel.
An excellent point @igsamuel. It's something that I know quite well as the CEO of a startup, and as someone whose blog found an audience after two years of obscurity. You've got to keep plugging. It's easy to quickly grow impatient and fatalistic when your posts are consistently ignored. Especially when you believe that you're writing such interesting and informed content! How could these people be ignoring my stuff. But, you've got to keep plugging. Stay consistent and, as Mr. Robot says, keep your eyes on the road ahead. It will come.
