When we talk about content creation for the Steemit platform, you are free to post whatever you want. Of course, some content can be flagged and with that you can loose your reputation. However, how far should you go and how to be authentic and truthful to yourself?
What are your interests?
You need to know yourself and make sure you transmit entusiasm. People like to follow someone with a passion.
What is your opinon?
You don't need to always express your opinion about everything (that would sound very boring) but make sure you have an opinion about everythng which will prevent you to simply 'go with the flow'.
Can you make a difference?
Even if is a small action, leaving the door open for someone to pass, or posting some useful hints - all this combined can transform the world - don't underestimate it!
Public versus private
You don't have share too much about yourself - everybody needs some privacy and safety - you can invite people you trust home but wouldn't leave everyone search your garbage, would you?
Respect above all
We are all different - having a different opinion does not give us the right to be disrespectful. Remind that yourself might have a different view of the world at some point - Can you imagine having a huge discussion with your future self, do you? :)
Conclusion
- Be authentic while talking about yourself
- Be kind while talking about others
- Be curious talking about the world
