Today's my 1 Year birthday on Steemit. - Reflections. Pictures. Crypto. Liberty. Pizza. | My 17,276th post on Steemit & 879th Blog Post.

in steemit •  7 years ago  (edited)

I've sat back for awhile & reflected knowing this day was coming. I have learned a lot on Steemit and met a lot of good people.

I am not feeling great today with headaches again, and did not work a draft of this post up in the days leading up to this, so this is all fresh today as most of my content is.

My templates I have built and use when I run my various Steemit Series' on here for consistency and branding, have saved me a lot of time from a Value of Time perspective. I would encourage everyone to consider building templates to help you, also.

All of our times are limited and finite. Your results here do not have to be.

Here's just a bit of what's running through my mind today on my 1 year Steemiversary.

Barry 1 Year Aniversary #SteemVersary on Steemit - EDIT showing 365 days on SteemD.jpg


This post you are now reading will be my 17276th post on Steemit and according to SteemitBoard.com - it will be my 879th Blog Post I have written assuming those stats are reasonably correct.... this is where my journey here today begins.

http://steemitboard.com/board.html?user=barrydutton




I've learned a lot and laughed a lot.

I've learned to care about Liberty even more than I had previously as a real life activist doing real life protests and speeches and things to help people and the case of true Liberty that has been stolen from humans inch by inch over decades.

Steemit has helped me in many many ways. Many of us feel the same I think. I guess you could say we are all...


Learning & Earning



Stats: Being a Steemit Whale & Maintaining a Minnow Mindset:


I have become one of the top bloggers on the platform in terms of sheer number of posts and comments (almost 900 blogs up now, #900 coming in the next few days) -- and a total of well over 17k (17,000) comments and blogs, combined.

I've also become a top Steemit community earner in terms of total account value, total Crypto assets / rewards earned here, and all that good stuff.

We are called to help and encourage one another.

These stats I reference and update regularly on my Milestone Posts which can easily be found if you like by searching the stat sites here or by referencing my last milestone post here:

https://steemit.com/steemit/@barrydutton/some-good-news-steemit-milestones-thanks-i-hit-3300-followers-and-17-000-posts-or-what-a-ride-steemit-family-thank-you-complete


As of today, there are 300, 671 accounts on Steemit. I reported on us crossing the 300k barrier live the other nite on my page!

You can see those stats here: https://steemdata.com/stats

I have been very active on Steemit trying to help others, spread good info, build community and stand up for what is right when I need to for the greater good.

I am in the Top 1% or better in basically all stats categories now for quite awhile here on Steemit.

I picked a shot from that Milestone Post there --- because this post is not all about my stats but it is a PART of it.

Here I am #120 all time now on Steemit for total value of posting rewards as of 48 hours ago:

I never thought out of over 300,000 accounts now, I would be anywhere near the Top 1% of anything here honestly --- so I know how it feels to be lost here and unsure of things.

If I can do it -- anyone can frankly and that is what I have said many times here and why I post stats in part -- to show people regular people can do good things.

To encourage people.

To encourage YOU.

Looking Long Term & Not Just for the 1% or Short Term:


I have seen the good and the bad and the ugly here. This is not a perfect community and likely nowhere is.

I've taken stands to help the greater good here long term, and lost support by people concerned about looking the other way when issues arise for the 99% of people here as long as they are making money or gaining traction politically.

-- That's fine.

It needed to be said, as I am always balanced. Not everything is about shiny ponies and unicorns.

If the masses are not looked after, growth and ALL of our investments here will not prevail and it will be limited, I will say again.


Thankful for the Support Along the Way:


While I am proud of that, I have been focused on building community I say again. I also could not achieve some of these numbers and reach with my posts without the community votes and consistent support of a few good people along the way.

-- And I know that and am thankful for the help and support no matter who it came from or in what form. I am not naming names, because there are too many to thank, I don't want to leave anyone out or hurt feelings, and the support has come in many ways, not just donations and votes or whale support.

It has allowed me to help others here, donate to them and their causes and needs. I have been helped. I have earned. I have given back. I have never forgotten the help I have received.



New Crypto/Steemit Family Arriving Daily: Help One Another.


I have never forgotten how lost I was when I came here last summer learning my way here and in Crypto in general.

I hated feeling lost. I always remember this feeling and this is why I try and write my content in a way that is very (#Steemit101) focused and that # and or phrase will always link to my content -- so new users can find helpful things.

I have also received help along the way. I have tried to pay that back out and help others in need in terms of raising awareness of their causes, donating directly to them, here or off chain outside of Steemit and our community and ecosystem.

I run my blog most days, in the mindset of wanting to help and reach the many many new people coming to Steemit and Crypto daily. I work at that -- and I stick to that.

Why? To build community.


The Philosophy of Steemit:


Build a Community. Help One Another.

Blog. Comment. Find Good Content.

Get Paid.

Goals:

--

Encourage each other. Kindness.

Community Building.

Welcoming all Steemians with no Class Distinction.

Friendship. Relationship Building.

Family.



Liberty: The Peaceful Revolution of Better Systems.


We are onboarding new people in Steemit and Crypto by the truckload daily. People who are sick of government interference, stupidity, collusion and oppression.

We are part of a Liberty based Revolution.


I believe it is high time for the PEOPLE to take back their Liberty, Money and Governance.... and rid themselves of the Evil Empire that has stolen these from all of us in our Global Village we all live in.



STEEMIT has changed me:


I have become a more critical writer and communicator.

Blogging and commenting in earnest every single day changes you. If you are honest about it and care, and let it. It has to.

It's a huge process.



Except for the 5 weeks total I have taken off, and the very rare day I do not blog, and feel burned out and need a break (likely a lot less than 1 day a month I take off!) -- I am here every day.

It has caused me to learn the value of cutting down words needlessly inserted or used.

It has caused me to be a more critical thinker when writing and replying and communicating in general.

It has caused me to re-read my own words daily, editing them when needed to be more clear - precise or abbreviated.


Community Building: Not just Blogging


-- I am trying to build a Community and I blog about this, nearly every day in my posts, be it the content, the signatures or phrasing I use, etc. to show new and older Steemians alike, that this is a community.

I talk about this a lot, because this is what I believe. And what we believe is important to us.


Steemit People have become REAL People to me.

Friends. Family. Community.


I have met a lot of great people here, people I talk to regularly now, outside of Steemit by way of email, Fascistbook, and Twitter etc.

I have mailed things to people!! They have mailed stuff to me!

l have tried to check on people who I do not see posting here or on other social media that does not pay us, to see if they are OK.

(:

I want people to know they are missed and valued.



Creativity Boosted.


I have become more creative in terms of my writing and my meme-making abilities.

It may sound dumb, but memes in this TLDR society we have become an effective way of conveying a message to people in a short short period of time, when you have about 3 seconds most of the time, to grab attention or make an impact.

I have really tried to put a pizza my heart into this place with all of you!!!!!


Crypto Gains


I will not get into details but Steemit has helped me learn about, invest in and boost my Crypto holdings. And for that I am thankful.

That can be kept short and sweet and do not mistake my brevity here, for anything other than complete gratitude.


Activism:


I've been a real / boots on the ground activist / IRL Liberty guy for years in my city and country of Canadastan.

I have challenged the lies and corruption and ineptitude in government policy and the rising police state and if you search my name, plus a few related key words, I am not hard to find.

Steemit has allowed me to connect with, learn with and actually prosper in all areas of my life --- with many other like minded people gathered here for the Liberty mindset and movement.

I think that is just awesome.


I am going to end it there. I am not sure how many people are still reading but I think like my personal stats / Milestone updates...... I do some things for my own archive and inner solitude, as much as to help others learn.

I am doing my best to give thanks - in all things.

I fail at it daily but I am doing my best and just keep getting back up when I am knocked down, which has been plenty, believe me.

We can do more if we do it together.

It's been good to know you for all this year and I look forward to some more good time spend reading you and talk with you!

It means a lot to me that you have read my posts and done so much for so many here on the Steemit!

Thank you my friend, most sincerely !!!

Glad to see the massive support for your anniversary after only an hour already.

You have become a pillar in our community man, and I look forward to meeting you one day!

I cannot believe I made $100 on a post at all LOL!!!

I had planned on meeting you long ago, I just do not have the ability to be as mobile as you know or I'd have been strung up in a hammock in your yard already one day when you got home LOL

Thanks for making time for me Papa.

Recién conozco a @barrydutton y me gusta su contenido

Many thanks, I appreciate the comments today mi amigo.

I'm pleased that this is the first post I've read from you! You seem like a good party incarnated.

And also, as a whale, are there like specialty minnows like, um, the Plecostomus? (those little fish you see cleaning the glass in tanks, or attached to sharks etc). Just wondering if there are layers within layers to this ecosystem or if whales just sort of roam around making waves and regulating the ocean with their bounty? Thanks for all the time, energy and work you've done to create and cycle humanity, value and content through the blockchain. What amazes me, is that his very comment could be studied historically, for whatever reason, decades from now.... so long as the lights stay on. :)

Wow, I just joined steemit and so far it has been a lot of fun, hopefully in a year I'll be able to post something similar :)

Steem On and you will be fine.

Try to dig in and learn and do your best to learn your way and look for answers daily. It will help you!

Your 1 year anniversary, my first week anniversary. I have a long way to go, but will get there. I have no idea what I am doing yet, but I am learning more every day., from reading post like yours and others that I have found. May life slow down enough, that it does not pass me by as I age.

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

Happy Anniversary.
You deserve that pizza:-)

Holy cow, the legend stops by my page again!

Thanks for the comments today and making time for me Ace!!!

You are welcome. You got stop calling me that. I won't how to explain 😎

LOL

Steem on my friend and it has been nice hearing from you lately, I really appreciate it.

(:

Congrats Barry!

I still smile when I see your name LOL.

Thanks for the comments today and making time for me!!!!!

Congrats @barrydutton! Glad to have you on the team :P

You are a beaut buddy.

Anytime I get to interact with you, is a good day usually.

  • thanks a lot for your friendship and support dude, it has been great. TY for making time for me again today @clayboyn

:) Sometimes I jump down rabbit holes and lose track of time. Like I just found out it was Monday! or is Monday... hmmm. Time is kind of like that when you don't focus on it and just let it do it's thing it flies by. This post also made me aware that I hit a year this month too. I guess we started around the same time! LOL, more perspective I guess.

We have so much time now to prep your 1 year #Steemiversary post !!

So much time! .......so much......................

LOL awesome gif.

I am so happy for you @barrydutton! You have shown what this platform is all about. Community. There are rough patches, but, I really believe that we can go very far together.

Warmest wishes for you and yours!
@matthewtiii

Matt, thanks for the comments today.

I am glad for each one of them and that the view count shows nearly 200 people have opened this --- and I hope it blesses and helps people.

Steem On my man!!!

I'm less worried about accomplishment - as younger people always can't help but be - and more concerned with spending my time well, spending time with my family, and reading, learning things.

Yes, this is why I have been trying to build community here.

Thanks again.

Oh Happy Birthdayversary!! Thank you for all you do for us new folks. I've made several new friends as a direct result of your community engagement efforts. You have been memed...I hope you can sing LOL

index.png

Oh you are cheeky sister LOL.

I have really enjoyed getting to know you online the last while, you are super fun and nice and any girl that appreciates my love of pizza like this, must be a great girl.

I know that sounds......Cheesy and all...................


Thanks for the comments today and making time for me!!!!! I love the meme and appreciate it!

It ain't easy bein' cheesy LOL...so glad you had a great day :)

I am back finishing the replies today, my follow up to this went up an hour or so ago, I was a little overwhelmed by the response here LOL

The fact you can rank so high in post count without spamming out like so many is an amazing achievement or you are the best chat AI on this platform!!!! I’m just kidding, I know you are real and you have earned your spot at the top.

congratulations you sure have set a very high bar for the community to aspire to. Looking forward to just a fraction of those numbers when I been here a year. Looking forward to see what you do in the next year!

@enjar man, you have been such a good Steemian and community guy and helper on here, you made an impact right away as I have told you many times.

I am giving you one of my TM

#Bro-Hugs

right now and a big sloppy s'more from our latest #SteemitCampfire buddy

1 year aniversary on steemit , you really worked for it, welldone

Thanks for taking time to comment today.

just click the follow for make me happy i'm new here <3 <3 <3

I appreciate your views on government and activist work, myself and many others have been mighty busy over here in the US with some political activism these days as well. Best of luck over in Canada 🇨🇦!

Oh I know, I follow that stuff there too.

I have been targeted by the "state" for speaking truth and informing people and challenging their boots on the throat mentality hoping the masses don't wake up.

Turns out the government and related AGENCIES really don't care about real public service after all!!!!

I had forgotten to edit in the picture I wanted in that part of the post -- have a look -- it is there now.

Muy buen post, bastante contenido y de gran calidad, que buen años has tenido espero seguir leyéndote mucho tiempo ahora que soy nuevo en @Steemit, gracias por compartir. Saludos!!

Nice hearing from you again mi amigo.

Gracias!

Thanks for the comments today and making time for me!!!!!

Great post. Happy Anniversary!

We are all in this together and we can do more---

Together.

Thanks for the comments today and making time for me!!!!!

Well, that was a legendary read. Thanks for your time here. I try to imagine what it has been like for you on this platform for a year. I've been on less than two months and seen myself change.

My favorite part was how you said posting it changed you. I've noticed as I post everyday, I'm refining exactly who I want to be. What are my values and how can I authentically add them to the world. Looks like I have a model in what you've done.

Cheers man. Freedom and blockchain to the moon.

That is a truly human reply. And I really appreciate it and the time you took here for me today.

Seeing myself change is cool but seeing what I have posted help other and that they regularly take some time to inform me of that, is really really fulfilling.

TY for stopping by today!!!

wow awesome. congratulations! I've been here a year as well but not very active :(

There is no time like the present, we are all early adopters here!

Thanks for the comments today and making time for me!!!!!

I am just a wee girl who is still relatively new to the steemit world. I heard about the wonderful world of steemit through youtube. I had been watching my usual mix of truth channels and in one such video, Lisa Haven was talking about how there is a great platform, where you can express yourself, interact with like minded people from around the globe, but above all - without censorship or control =).. that's what made me come here!.. I love the huge variety here and the high potential for the taking,.. it's a goal to work towards in which, one day I hope to cross the line and 'feel' the sweet feeling of success =)
Happy Anniversarie. You put so much into your posts & are an inspiration I strive towards.
blessings from across the waters!

Hey there, it is so nice of you to stop by and make time for me today with some good comments like that.

I really appreciated that today...........

-- thank you!!

hihi
Thank you for sounding so pleasant back to me :]
Its nice to get re- directed back here to such a happy sounding comment ツ

My follow up post went up an hour ago or so.

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

Hello fellow Canadian, inspiring post thanks! Especially "Being a Steemit Whale & Maintaining a Minnow Mindset" Thanks for the breakdown I'm sure this doesn't only encourage me!

I try and keep it simple and relate every day, remembering my first days here, which were uncomfortable at times LOL - I was intrigued but LOST lol

(:

Inbox me at steemit.chat under my name here or on Twitter --- if you are in Ontario or can be in Toronto area for the 14th, there is a huge BTC/ETH summit that day, I am TRYING to gather people / Steemians -- together for this event to go as one block and be community-fun-minded about it!

@teamsteem knows!

congrats mate!

Thanks for taking time for me today.

You are one the best, the steemian that i need to learn from. I will follow you closely, and will soon be bringing my followers form other platforms here. I have over 700,000 followers on twitter, but want to know more before I have to answer many questions they will have. Thank you for this post

My twitter post on this was in the replies, so you are welcome to connect with me there too and btw the 2 places etc --- hopefully it will help you Johnny.

Thanks for the nice comments today and making time for me!!!!!

I wish you the best, bring them all over LOL, and tell them to bring pizza hahahahaha!!

that will be a lot of pizza, but a lot of fun also, my friend

Trust me, web search my name + pizza, you will see --- I am down for the challenge LOL

  ·  7 years ago 

Such a great achievement. Wish I could be as good as you one day. Best

Just keep blogging!!!

You can do it, if I can do it!

  ·  7 years ago 

thank you! will continue to try. :)

Hey, we are about a month a part in joining, but it took me forever to get a first post up. Keep producing the great reads :-)

Oh hey, if you go down my page a few posts and look for my series "What was your First Steemit Post" etc -- you will see it took me a month too and I am very honest sharing the story!!!

I relate!!

That's great, I'm not a blogger either. My first post was on the van life, and now mostly about the challenges of vegan farming, or just farming all together. I consume a whack of crypto video and talk, which is where I think I may have come across you the first time,Bitcoinmeister show maybe? but rarely blog about it, as the comments section is far from mature. Any BTC atms in the woods? :-P

I was on This Week in Bitcoin months ago yes, it turned out to be an all Canadian show of guests and all of us are here on Steemit too LOL

I am kinda always in the Crypto-sphere all over SM etc.

I have been a licensed Realtor since 1991 out of high school and also have a lot of experience doing Land Planning/Assembly and Use and Zoning / Planning etc.

We should cross pollinate our ideas sometime. Ya never know, we might invent something useful. :-)

It can happen!!!

Thanks again for stopping by my man.

sure thing Barry, whenever you fancy, I'm about :-)

I'd rather have a lot of talent and a little experience than a lot of experience and a little talent.

That can go different ways.

I played sports with guys who were drafted. Some of them had lots of talent but no work ethic or bad attitudes - I could see it right during our high school days before the drafts.

I remember thinking what a bummer that was, even by my Grade 10 and 11 years. So much potential.

Happy Steemit B-Day! May you continue to prosper!

I appreciate the time you have taken to stop by my post today @mexresorts !

I wish the same for you also!!!

Happy 1 year!!!!

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

:) You too!!

(:

If you want a laugh check my page today LOL

you are happy . i am also happy because when a person delighted every one want to delighted as like the person. congratulation dear. go ahead i pray for you.

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

It really doesn't seem like a year. We must all be getting old now!

Thanks for stopping by my man.

I did a follow up post to this 1 year post tonite. I was a little overwhelmed by the response here, I must admit.

I am still so stoked by your post ripping Poloniex LOL, I was thinking about it struggling thru my self imposed physio today, it helped me as I smiled about it.

NP:)

What a post! Happy Steemit birthday brother!!

That's quite a few posts.. As well as actual blog posts! Beast.

Talks soon.

LOL.

I appreciate it -- the struggle has been real some days believe me.

I have no doubt! Thing is, in the beginning when we are motivated, we can get things done easier because we have drive.. But when it's the 90th+ day doing the same thing, that's when the real test happens. Good for you brother! It's awesome to see those are put in the hours, and reap the results accordingly!

I muddle along and try my best

LOL

great advice thanks for the motivation.! :) we all hate feeling lost.

It's true and I remember this....

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Wow, this took me a bit to get through. Looks like you're doing it all right and with an amazing attitude. I'm new here but seeing what you've done looks like a great example. Helps me put Steemit in a better perspective overall.

Obviously following to get some more nuggets. Thanks man!

This took me 4 hours to put together so I guess you are lucky you read quicker than I work some days LOL

Thanks for commenting today!

Phenomenal! Good for you! Happy one year! Thanks for being humble, looking out for the good of the community. I briefly "met" you over on sbc. I am now running steemit dreamit (fb group only so far.) I've been here for a bit over two months and already this place has changed my life. Love it here. Congrats to you and thanks for Looking out for the well being of the community!

A legend stops by my post LOL! I love it!!!

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

Thanks so much for all your hard work and insight Barry....

Steemin' on here!

Legends rarely know, they are too busy being legendary.

Steem on my friend, steem on.....

Congratulations on your Birthdate being here at Steemit! I know I enjoy seeing you on my feed!
Your words on creating the community is why that is what I am focusing on and will learn the other aspects of this place later and no doubt I will be searching your blogs for that learning. Thank You for being a stable pillar here...

I have noticed and very much appreciated your kind and encouraging comments to me lately.....

Thank you.

Happy Birthday Trooper!!!

I love that band LOL

I am here for a good time AND a long time!!!!


Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Steem On!!!

Hahaha... sure man~, great sound Trooper, a bit Dark but it's ok! Now I'm following you to check new histories in my home page. And that pizza drives me so crazy that yesterday had to buy one... I felt like a Teenage Mutant Liberty Ninja Turtle... lol

I love helping people here

LOL

Looks like you've had a great year! I can only imagine what it will be like 5 years from now. Keep climbing the charts my friend!

Not every day was super awesome LOL.

Many of the new people are making money off their first post or more than 2 or 5¢......... I went months and never made $1 on a post, people forget that.

It is not all about the money but this is a measurement in many use cases LOL

Congratulations @barrydutton!
Your post was mentioned in the hit parade in the following category:

  • Comments - Ranked 6 with 154 comments

Sweet.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Steem On!!

Nice job barrydutton! I'm getting close to my first year and you've done quite a bit better than me! People like you and papa-pepper inspire me to try even harder. :) Happy one year birthday here on steemit and good luck into the future!

I love it when a Steemit legends stops by my page like this man!

Your name is everywhere, I see it all the time and you are doing a great job for a long time here now.

I cannot get off my own page as much most days or around posts like I used to with some of my challenges but the key is we are all doing our best.

Thanks for making time for me today @apolymask!

Wow, that's really humbling. I'm not going to try to argue with you, lol. But I don't really feel like a legend.. I talk about a lot of weird and controversial things and my page is pretty quiet.. Well, outside of the nature photography of course! I do put out a lot of good nature photography. :)

But yeah, I guess sort of just by nature anyone who has been around a long time might be considered a legend? I'm not really sure what the word legend totally means I should look it up!

Oh and yeah, I feel similar.. I have a bunch of messages I haven't responded to, I can't even really keep up with it all anymore and I'm not as big as you or others.. But I do have a lot of people trying to talk to me.. And.. Takes too much time sometimes responding, so I can feel you there a lot and it does mean more when bigger names take the time to respond, cause.. It's really tough keeping up with all the stuff sometimes! Especially the more people you have following your work.

You're welcome for making time, thank you as well for making time for me, and keep up the good work! :)

Congrats Barry! Many of us steemit "old timers" have been hitting the 1 year milestone in recent weeks. Guess it's kind of cool to know the answer to the question many of us asked last summer: "Will we still be here in a year?"

@oldtimer actually took time and stopped by this post!!!

Epic!!! LOL

Haha, that is epic! Whenever you are able to share your presence is more than enough my friend! Steem on! :-)

Thank you my friend!!!!

Wow, that is true..... and kinda profound LOL.

  • it is great to hear from you again my friend...... thanks for making some time for me today. I cannot be around as much as I used to be with some of my challenges but I do my best.

This is mind blowing,intriguing,awesome,impressive@barrydutton,pleasure being a part of these milestone achievements of yours on steemit,post resteemed... @detycoon

Thanks my friend, I appreciate your comments a lot on my post......

Thanks a lot!!

That is nice of you.

Steem On!

Awesome! I have celebrated mine a few days earlier. Have fun on your birthday!
