# <center>OCD DAILY - Issue #195</center>

<h2><center>**Welcome to the 195th issue of @OCD Daily!**</center></h2>

Issue #195 highlights content from ten (10) Steemit Content Creators! The OCD team continues it's search throughout Steemit to find you the undervalued gems, as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators bring you ten new pieces of original content! We strive to find works that are provided by newer Steemit users, that may not have the audience which their quality content deserves. @OCD strives to help provide that audience, and intends to showcase Steemit users who put in the extra effort to create talented, original content.

<center>**The nomination process**</center>

*A curator will **FIND** a piece of work (typically from newer users), within 24 hours that piece has been submitted from the curator to the @ocd team, votes tallied and the pieces with the most votes are placed into the compilation.*

We encourage you to visit these blogs and to show these great Steemians your support and encouragement.

<center>If you enjoyed their work give them a Follow or maybe even say Hello!</center>

All of the content as chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is seen as universally appreciated and valued making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

If there was ever an elaborate and noteworthy blog on shaving for men, this one by @steemengines is 'it'. Most men find shaving to be a monotonous and boring activity but after reading the pearls of wisdom presented in this blog you will realize you were doing it wrong all this while. The author narrates the process of 'wet shaving' with lots of pictures, and highlights the need to dedicate 30 mins for the perfect shave. Try this new method which the author calls "detoxifier for your life", and the results will most likely surprise you.

Guilt is a feeling that all of us deal with. And oftentimes it forces us to do things that may be detrimental to us and our health, yet we continue for the very reason of feeling less guilty. This inspiring and motivational blog by @brightstar highlights the things that we need to focus on and start doing in order to prevent the endless cycle of energy drain we are subjecting our lives and bodies to by virtue of focusing less on ourselves and our needs.
