RE: How to never run out of inspiration for your posts

in The LIFESTYLE LOUNGE5 years ago

Excellent post on this topic @fenngen! The detail you provide about the various aspects of writing posts should be very helpful to many. Hopefully, you'll have a large number of "eyes" on your great work.

Not finding what to write about a problem myself, I struggle more with the seemingly insatiable time demands, so this stood out to me.

"... I had destined that day to internet fasting ..."

A day of "fasting" ... Yes, I like it! Life in the "real world" doesn't stop, for choosing to engage "in here" does it? For me, I have resigned myself to being a "part-time" Steemian and what that represents in terms of how others subsequently "reward" those efforts ...

I hope you and yours are doing okay there in Chile, in the midst of this global response to a pandemic. Have a great day!

Yes, Steem can be a time-devourer. I don't mind because it's quite fun but sometimes I think I need to spend more time outside!

I live in the countryside so I really don't get affected much by any of society's "crisis".

How about you? I noticed you did a post, I will read it during the day. Thanks for commenting!

Yes @fenngen, my Chilean friend, I find it somewhat fun as well, but have some time ago settled the matter, as needing to be "part-time," in an attempt to keep a healthy balance ...

And, even at that, I still wrestle with whether or not I am overdoing it. Like now, in the midst of both what is going on in the "real world," as well as the current mess the Steem blockchain finds itself in ...

I truly do enjoy life outside. Enjoying the simple pleasures of all that is around us. If you don't mind my asking, what part (generally speaking, you don't need to be specific ...) of Chile do you live in, i.e. what is the countryside like?

I was in Chile myself once for two weeks in the late 1980s. Flew into Santiago and then spent nearly a week at the famous El Teniente copper mine well south of there. Also spent the weekend (sick as a dog ...) at a beautiful little seaside village somewhere closer to Santiago ...

If I am ever given the privilege of returning to Chile, I hope to be able to go down much farther south, where it appears it has similar mountainous terrain to what I enjoy here in America.

My latest post is on COVID-19 arriving at our doorstep. Written in my common "minority report" fashion ... 😉
