Thanks.
Coincidence or not, this morning I ran into a post by @arifarham, in which he said not to forget the wise words a SteemIt admin once said:
"The best attitude to have is to expect to make nothing. Have fun. Get engaged. Make friends. If along the way you earn something - bonus!"
So from now on: no 'forced' posts anymore. No more trying to be someone I'm not. And no more comparing myself to others. Just fun!
I've really learned a lot today :-)
That IS a good quote...it takes the edge of for sure then! It's a total mindset change! Thanks
