My Arrival

At last, I'm here on Steemit. Thanks to @tojukaka and Mr Ogbonaya for their encouragement.

Short History On This Discovery

Tojukaka came to my fellowship on two different occasions to introduce Steemit. I couldn't make any sense out of what he said at first. The second time he came, my fellowship leader simplified it for me. Still I felt it'll be easier for this present generation than mine. Am on my way to 50.
Now Ogbonaya encouraged me that there are people of my age bracket, even older, that contribute to Steemit and are benefitting from it. So many good testimonies about Steemit.
Am really delighted for the Steemit initiative, as a social media that's interested in adding values to lives.

Who Am I?

My name is Marian Olubukola, a mother of three boys. Two in the University and the youngest in senior secondary school. Two of them are on Steemit, @general-emzard, which is the youngest and @thegrtmind, my second born.
I'm an entrepreneur, an events planner and trainer. I also empower single mothers and youths on skill acquisitions through free trainings. It is what I do mostly. I train them on how to make handmade shoes, bags/accessories, bead works etc.
I'm a passionate counsellor for single mothers and widows. We often have meetings where we discuss about being self willed and tolerant in a family.

Conclusion

Very soon I plan to start distributing some food items to some single mothers on my family's birthdays in my own little capacity.
I have a vision to sponsor some of their children in school in the near future. Some homes are being restored happily as a result of these counselling. I have a strong believe in a happy relationship.
However, some issues are so difficult to resolve so I will be sharing some experience with you here as time goes on.
Once again, I'm so so happy I made it to Steemit at last and am sure I'll like your company.
Thank you for your time!

greetings, marian

Be very welcome to steemit social network. I've been here since February of this year and I'm really enjoying. I participate here actively every day. Here, we can learn a lot by reading other people's posts about content that interest us and we can post our own content, helping people within our areas of expertise, training our writing, making a kind of "therapy" because, writing helps us to reflect on our knowledge and we will be slightly paid for it. I hope you enjoy.

My main tip is: before you begin to post your content, read the posts by teaching staff how to use this network, about how to write good text, how are the coins sbd, steem and steem power, how to advertise your text using the discord by example, votes issues and other things.

Other than that, we are always available. If you have any questions, go ahead.

Good afternoon!!!! Welcome!!

Thank you for the info.

Hello marian-olubukola! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
