The 7500+ Followers Super Celebration Post!

in followers •  7 years ago  (edited)

A few days ago I'd snapped this screencap of my followers count nearly reaching a somewhat amazing 7500 in numbers... Absolutely phenominal really considering I'm a canuck weirdo!

Shortly after that I'd noticed the 2 followers I needed had hopped on board and brought my count to over 7500! Which to put into perspective I grew up most my teenage and younger years in a town boasting only 1400 people... then a town boasting only 4000 people.. So my reach is now greater than the entire populations of where I grew up, damn son!

The Road to Success is an Uphill Battle

They say it get's easier when you get to the top.. Which I cannot agree with, it actually gets more difficult to make progress when you begin to near the top echelon in anything! When I was a struggling and basically a hobo it was far easier to be motivated, mainly by hunger to achieve great things in my life. Last year I got a taste of being a rock star when I hit the top 20 witness list and was making insane amounts of SP. The quest to get my spot back in the top 20 has been on my mind since then, but winter and having my ex-girlfriend leave me last year put me in a downward spiraling depression that only now that spring has come once again to Canada has started to lift.

Not being able to get into "the zone" to code and keep up with my pace that was set to get me into the top 20 witness spot I held was a self created tragedy.. One I intend to reverse here in the upcoming months as I buckle down and get the projects I've set out to complete over the last years up and running. Great progress has been made over the last month both in my coding and mental well being, and for that I'm ever grateful!

I will get all I've set out to do done, and then some, in the next little while.

The Future You Want Must be Created by You!

Through STEEM and the work done here anyone can become something greater than they are currently. It's a wonderful network that pays those who contribute to it quite well and is incredibly welcoming to new up and coming talents, especially programmers and entrepreneurs. The people I've met, the things I've learned, the successes I've tasted and the love I've received on this platform go far beyond what I thought I'd ever see in a lifetime. For that I thank you all for the parts you play in my life and helping me create a life that I can be proud to share. Go fourth and become great, I believe you can achieve anything.

Congratulations @kyle Keep up the good work

I hadn't thought about it, but my following could be around the population of the town I live in. That said, I don't know if any other Steemians here yet, hence my 'only Steemian in the village' byline :) Steemit could get crazy when there are tens of millions using it. This is just the start of something big

Congratulations boss!
May you have many more <3
My prayers are with you sir!

Congratulations.

quite an interesting story.

Cool... soon you have 9000 :)))

Congratulations, I need ~2700 more followers to catch up :)

keep on rocking my man. Hunger is the best motivator but somedays we must feast on our spoils and get fat so when we get hungry next "winter" we will work hard remembering what it feels like to be full. It will all turn to dust someday so enjoy it and try and save some for a rainy day.

Congratulations boss.

Glad your depression is turning a corner. I suffered for years and could barely get myself to breath let alone do anything as arduous as coding.

I'm happy to say those days are behind me now although I still suffer from low moods. Today being one of those days! 😢

Congratulations on that milestone of 7500+ followers. Am glad to be following and wishing you all the best :)

U just took off again my dude! Even in the face of death, and fungicidal homicide. Your reputation continues to grow!
