First Impressions Matter

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

Hi there, I'm Kt.
IMG_6623.JPG
It's June 15th. Thursday. Night time.

I have no idea what I'm doing half the time and this is no different. I work a job I don't love, it's not worthy of mentioning here. I haven't really found my place in the world yet and that's not to say I haven't thought about it. I've been thinking a lot about my next step in life. My problem is starting anything, let alone finishing projects. I get so over-analytical and introspective at times. Really all the time. Getting lost in my thoughts and ideas stops me. I am told this is a very human thing. I hope? Am I the only out there that doesn't know what tf they are doing?

Woah nelly. That got heavy!
Anywho,
Let's take a couple steps back.. I'm actually tons of fun. I swear! If I had to describe myself in 3 words one of them would definitely be fun.

I was born in Nebraska raised in the blue collar neighborhood of South Omaha, with my SOB tattoo to prove it (more on that later). I came out to LA by way of Chicago, which I moved to right after high school many, many moons ago.

The color yellow is an obsession for me. So are all things fluffy, furry and four pawed. So are clothes and fashion, especially the avant garde, hipster and vintage styles. I am an ENFP. Scorpio Sun, Taurus Moon & Scorpio Rising --if you're into that sorta thing. ;)

I really thought I would have found my way by now, yet the path of personal development is never ending, as they say. Come along with me as I figure this thing out. Let's start something together.

Welcome to Steemit, @livinglegend! :) I can completely relate to so much of what you've mentioned about yourself (especially the part about having trouble starting things!). I hope to see more content from you here. Happy steeming!

Thanks @bombaybellyrina! Yes, I feel like the inner conversation gets a bit loud at times and that's a big reason I keep myself from starting and working towards my goals. The negative conversation between our ears is a lie we tell ourselves!

I completely agree! I've been pushing myself lately to remedy that about myself. Here's hoping it works. :) Am following you now, and looking forward to reading more of your work. You have a gift for the written word.

Have a good one!

Thank you! Followed back. Cheers!

Hi and welcome! I'm super new too! I'm a YouTuber living in Vietnam!

Hi @phoyoureyesonly thanks! I love your screen name!!

@livinglegend - Welcome! Glad to see you finally made it to Steemit☺

Yasss! I am here! Don't fret!

Welcome Kt! Scorpio is a very interesting sign ;). Scorpio rising, is that western astrology or vedic astrology? 🤔

Hi thanks @kryptoknightk! hmm you know I don't know whether it is western or vedic astrology tbh. I would guess western because I've never heard of vedic!

If you are into astrology, definitely check out vedic. It can be scary haha. Oh, and btw if you like it here and love blogging. Then hustle! Sooner or later, you will be able to quit your boring job and do what you like :)

@kryptoknightk I will check it out! I will try to hustle for sure! Four posts is the max I can do everyday right? Do you really think you can make enough money on here to quit your day job? Have you been able to quit yours?? I just heard about steemit yesterday; I feel like I'm late to the game! My job is preeeetty boring!

You don't have to post four posts a day, even one post a day should be enough. Just make sure it's a quality post! Steemit is still in it's infancy stage, so you are still ahead of the curve and mainstream adoption so take advantage of that. Focus on gaining followers and the attention of the 'whales' while you blog. It will take some time and effort, but steemit has the potency to make you a triple figure. From reading your replies on your post, in my opinion you have a great sense of humor 😂 and can add value to this growing community. And I joined steemit not even a week ago, so we are in this together haha.

Thanks for all the advice @kryptoknightk. I've always wanted to go whale watching! Sometimes I think I'm funny. Today I am just feeling funny. Strikes and gutters

Whale watching 🤣

KT! You're on Steemit too! MT

meep

Welcome to Steemit KT. I found reading others posts on here particularly helpful and inspiring. There is one poster learning to draw and documenting their experience, others posting advice, thoughts about the world, even their favorite toys. I am sure you will find your niche on here somehow, and perhaps that will help with your direction along the road.

THanks for your encouraging words @twirble and thanks for introducing me to steemit! I likes it!

Yaaayy! Twirble happies!!

Your friends will believe in your potential, your enemies will make you live up to it

This is a great quote! Thank you for this @alexopenyoga!

Welcome to Steemit! As someone who has only been here a week I can tell you there are a lot of wonderful people on this platform. A lot of people here have no clue where they want end up in life. All they do know is for this moment they have Steemit to call home, and a place to share those random deep thoughts that they have over-analyzing hundreds of times over.

Thanks @enjar! I am enjoying steemit so far! Now I just need to make time for my much anticipated follow up post (story/blog). My 16 followers are waiting at the tip of their seats! ..not really though I'm sure *cue laugh track.

Welcome to steemit! im sure you will like it here!

Thank youuuu @techzata!

Welcome to steemit! You sound interesting, fun and creative. I think you will do great here on steemit :)

Yas! Here for all the frands. And the monies too! Thanks @yonny!

Welcome Kt! Well, things have been hard on a lot of us. Good news is that it's just the beginning of something awesome! Optimism is cool. Let's follow each other. In circles. For hours. heh.

Hi @showoff thanks and LOL!
