Hello From Pakistan - I just quit my full-time job to write on Steemit!

in introduceyourself •  5 years ago 

Hey guys,

I joined steemit back in Feb 2019 but at that time this platform seemed too complex for a newbie like me and I also had a full time job as an accountant where I spent 12 hours a day. I've always wanted to live a life of freedom where I could make a living by writing on anything that I want. I've been thinking about quitting my day job for a very long time in order to pursue this goal. After working my a$$ off for the last 3 years and making only $200 a month, I just realized that I need to start working on this passion (writing) at some point or else I keep living the life that I've always hated.

I have seen people making $150-200 a day which takes me almost a month to earn. This truly served as a motivation for me. I know this journey wouldn't be easy but I'm prepared to take risk and do all the required hard work.

So starting today, my goal is to write at least 2500 words a day and publish 4-5 high quality articles on steemit.

Wish me luck guys.

Thanks !

Welcome to Steemit travelbuzz. The official FAQ can be found here and has A LOT of information https://steemit.com/faq.html - Also remember, Steemit is just ONE of the sites built that uses Steem the blockchain. You should also check out DTube and DSound for starters and if you're a gamer, Splinterlands! There are many other cool apps but I can't list them all here, there's just too many! But I'd also like to mention Steempeak, it's a better blogging platform that has a lot of cool features. The latest project you should also check as a new member is a palnet! Welcome to the blockchain! :) Oh, and if you're interested in creating your own tokens or smart contracts, check Steem engine!

Good idea. I agree. I like writing too. It can take time but it is good to build something that is priceless.

Hi, welcome to SteemIt. Good luck on your Steem journey and I wish you the best. I've been here since 2016 but it was only last month when I fully committed to take Steem seriously. You can read the latest post of my STEEMJOURNEY here - https://steempeak.com/steemvesting/@kapengbarako/my-steem-journey-update-02

Here are also some tools that I use and I hope you can find them useful too:

  1. Use Partiko App from your mobile phone to post to your blog, comment, and upvote content in SteemIt to earn points which you can use to boost your own content.
  2. If you’re into games, you may wanna try playing Steem Monsters, a blockchain game based on Steem. If lets you compete with other players around the world with creature cards which you can sell and/or convert to crypto.
  3. Get rewarded for staying fit and healthy with ActiFit - a Steem-based app which rewards you with tokens (which you can eventually use to boost your content) for being physically active.
  4. If you have other social media accounts with considerable amount of following, why not re-post your content using Share2Steem and get upvotes and free boost to your postings.
  5. Invest your Steem Power at Smart Steem and get daily rewards and earn more Steem
  6. Exchange votes with other users with SteemEngine.Net
  7. eSteem and Steempeak both offer an intuitive way of using Steem, enhancing your user experience.
