# <center>OCD DAILY - Issue #314</center>

<h2><center>**Welcome to the 314th issue of @OCD Daily!**</center></h2>

Issue #314 highlights content from ` ten (10) ` Steem Content Creators! The OCD team continues its search throughout Steem to find you the undervalued gems, as provided by relatively new users.

Today our curators found ` ten (10) ` new pieces of original content! We strive to find works that are created by newer Steem users, that may not have the audience with which to share their quality content. @OCD strives to help provide that audience and intends to showcase Steem users who put in the extra effort to create creative, original content.

<center><b>The @OCD nomination process</b></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, curator votes are tallied, and the pieces with the most votes are included in the compilation.*

We encourage you to visit these blogs and 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 chosen by our curators is undervalued, but there is always one piece that rises to the top. That piece is universally appreciated and valued by our curators making it OCD’s Top Nomination of the Day.

####  <center>Our next nomination of the day is from @marckospc </center>
<center>

Unfortunelly personal failure is part of our daily life and when it takes over the positive news and events, all the people falls in a depression period: this happened to the author of this post who saw everything around him was going wrong, until a day when he watched a video with a fallen tree which is still alive and refuses to die. So he understood that "I'm down, but I flatly refuse to give up". From this point of view he knew that the failure was only in his mind and he would have had success if he wanted it!

This post is a deep analysis of how a state of mind can change just watching the world around you.

####  <center>Our final nomination of the day is from @ayushjalan </center>
<center> 

Is romantic love superior to other kinds of love? @ayushjalan explores this topic - with references to his personal ideas and thoughts about love. "For me personally, I think romantic love should come after self-love, because like they say, you can't love someone else if you can't even love yourself." As he starts writing he already mentions this might be a question without a perfect answer - but that doesn't mean we should stop trying to!
