Why am I making this contest?
Primarily, I want to help my fellow red fishes. I want to encourage them to think about what they would wish to improve. I want new Steemians to be able to make a post that is simply focused on one thing and not all over the place. I want them to see how their presentation impacts performance. Basically, it's all about the basics, as we are all starting out, and even if you don't win, you should be able to take some ideas of how to present your post effectively, because no-one is perfect. I want the contestants to make a minimalist post with a strong message. I want them to dig inside them and reflect on their experiences so that I can potentially use them for self-improvement, since I am currently 16! I believe Steemit is all about connecting with ourselves and others.This is my way of doing it. Let's allow ourselves and others use these for their own self-improvement. This is my first contest and I hope the new steemians will get something out of it!
Tip for Newbies: Joining contests is one of the best ways to earn in Steemit. I know it's kinda common sense but we can overlook that sometimes. Please support this contest and may you all make contests for our fellow red fishes, too, in the future. Keep Steemin'
