Iam sure you heard that phrase..No pain No gain. Well, you can apply that here at Steemit
What is the Grind ?
I cannot take credit for this. I wish I could but Steemian @exyle here can ( Btw, check him out just an amazing and very successful blogger/vlogger at Steemit) I just watched an excellent video of his interview produced by @terrybrock and it is really a phenomenon . One that is a Reality for most of us ,newbies, here at Steemit.
The Grind is simply your initial phase at Steemit where people do not know you from Adam. Usually it takes months of constantly blogging, commenting, adding new Followers, and just adding value to the Community.
Slowly people will start noticing you. And your blog posts and Comments will start to gain traction and your Earnings will start to increase.
Why Embrace It ?
Unless your Jerry Banfield ( as @exyle aptly points out in video) and already have a HUGE Following from places like YT, then it will be necessary for you to go through phase called "the Grind".
So embrace it, eat it, drink it, sleep it. be it...well you get my drift :)
Paying Your Dues
You have probably heard this phrase. No different here at Steemit and going through "The Grind" :)
Conclusion
