## How can I tell if a given post is not seen or not good? 

Honestly, I often spend more time choosing the tag to use than writing a given posts--and I spend a long time writing my posts!

I think long and hard about the topic of my post and what tags to use, but I often wonder if I am choosing all wrong. With only 5 to choose from, I am never really sure what to use. I usually choose tags that exist based on the subject matter. But the more I look, the more I am starting to thing that others are not using the same criteria I am.

## No league or curation support
I am not really a part of any leagues or groups. I know it would probably be better if I did, but I have this mental block on spending my time on Discord, instead preferring to spend my time reading and commenting on individual posts. I have a strong feeling that my decision is not conducive to really growing on Steemit, but until someone sits down with me and really explains all the nitty gritty details about how curation leagues are better, how delegation works, why it is better to give my vote to someone else... I think I will be on my own. (hmm... *note to self*, does it mean I am getting old that I am being so hard-headed about this?)

Would love to hear suggestions on the best tags to use for my posts which touch on plant intelligence, biomimicry, sustainability, architecture, nature-inspired systems, developing your dream project, ecosystem thinking, urban greenism, human health, connection to nature, and so forth. So far, I have been using things like #dreams #greennews #naturalmedicine #architecture #biomimicry #nature #plants #ecotribe #health #business #earthtribe... are there others that would be better?
