UNTALENTED ADJUSTMENTS, MY 360 DEGREES LIFE TURN AROUND ON STEEMIT

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

It's oftentimes said that the proof of the pudding is actually in the eating, this has been true for me and my participation in steemit. I got to know of steemit through my friend and colleague, @AmbDavid who kept on evangelising the gospel of STEEMIT until I gave in to join the platform.

Initially when I came, I actually came for the money, but guess what made me stay? The community. I saw what I have never seen before on a social site, I saw love, deep rooted talents, I saw givers.

@AmbDavid as at the time of joining was just few days old, yet he had believes
D do much in steemit, he didn't have much personal proves to show me except that of @tojuka who was an NYSC colleague to someone I knew. That people could write and get paid actually dumb founded me.

The Meriam Webster dictionary defines adjustment as:

A small change that improves something or makes it work better

My writing skills just received a face lift, writing wasn't really my thing at anytime not until now, so after registering I just spent days blog trotting on people's profiles and posts, learning how people actually wrote, I was like : if people should pay for whatever I write, then I must have written it well. I felt so good when I noticed the first 3$ on my introductory post (my first time if being appreciated for writing . Please help me praise God! 💞)

Then I joined the various STEEMIT groups on whatsapp and discord, believe me I was wowed at the level of generosity people showed in these groups, SBDS were being distributed all over, big shots like @surpassinggoogle, @ejemai were busy organising contests and making newbies smile and thank God. The forum made me increase my love for people and ability to give.

This platform is the first place I got to hear of Crytpto currency, I never heard of such not at all, I got to learn about the steemit blockchain and how it works, these are things I would have spent money outside to learn, steemit gave me all this free of charge plus some rewards. What more can one say?

Like I said, I came for the money but an staying for the community, my life as a steemit participant has been testimonies upon another, all thanks to my friend @AmbDavid for inviting me to join, not certain how good I could put up this write-up, but however it will be rated, we may not understand, but I know I am getting better than I was.

This is my story
This is my song
Steemit has been good to me.
