So, it came to my attention that I’ve now officially been on Steemit for two years.

Firstly I must say congratulations for the journey so far, this is another milestone in your adventure on steemit. This is an anniversary I look forward to and I must say this is worth celebrating ... Smiles

So when Steemit was presented... the blessing was in timely order.
And here, now, 24 month and lifetimes later, it’s safe to say that affairs have transformed to a degree which leaves room for little else than gratitude.

When steemit was First presented to me , I was at the point of giving up on my dreams , I just graduated from college with no assurance of having a job as that’s the major issue facing youths in my country, so graduating from college in My country doesn’t mean good life to come, so many still roam the street hungry and not having a clue as to what to do next and that is why I and my team consisting of @mistakili and @tomilolafadipe has taken it upon ourselves to take the news the good news, the life changing news of steem to the world under different communities on steemit

Two years of great accomplishment by a great individual @rok-sivante
A man of purpose driven by vision, love, passion and purpose

Two years of a successful encounter with a man who has the heart of gold, a generous heart and always willing to help, guide and reply at all times

He is the top on my list on steemit as the most distinguished gentle man. Writing this is not in an attempt to be favoured ,but the truth speaks for itself. I believe I am not the only one saying this.

What you have accomplished so far on steemit is really outstanding. Our success, fulfilment and happiness depend upon our ability to relate effectively. The best way to become a person that others are drawn to is to develop qualities that we are attracted to in others.

Your qualities attracted me to you, and today I can confidently say you are really a rare gem,

knowing you on steemit is one of the best experience on this platform.

when special people touch our lives we suddenly realise how beautiful and wonderful our world can really be. They show us that our special hopes and dreams can take us far by helping us look inward and believe in who we are. They bless us with their live and joy through everything they give- John C. Maxwell

I believe the best is yet to come, two years on steemit and still counting. You are leaving an indelible mark for others to follow, people like me πŸ˜„, and definitely this mark has been leading to me to my goal on this platform.

Indeed, when one is mentored by a great personality, one is sure not to fall by the way side. You are a people's person and a whale with distinct, classic and unique attribute.

If I continue, there is every tendency that I will not stop, let me drop my pen here by saying that, your of touch of love on people here have been changing lives. keep inspiring us bro, I am not surprised how high you have gone and still going on this platform because of your loving nature.

I celebrate with you today bro, two years of great accomplishment. πŸŽŠπŸŽŠπŸŽŠπŸŽ†πŸŽ†πŸŽ†πŸŽ†πŸŽ†πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽŠπŸŽŠπŸŽŠ
You are the best!

Humbled. Honoured. Touched. Grateful for your feedback - so deep from the heart, and inspiring itself.

Hmm, your two years has been fruitful I must say, not only financial as you've rightly said but you have been a source of inspiration to your followers, the words in your blog are words of a great thinker that you're and hard work you've put into it has shown that hard work with the right mindset brings result. You have show me to believe in myself as a person. I use to get carried away by the cash when looking at these whales wallet, I just seem to forget the hard work they've put in the building what they've become.

The steps you've taken on this platform is worthy of emulation, happy anniversary to you @rok-sivante, we all love you. Thanks to the maker of this great platform to, for his idea has made it possible that I met someone like you in my life, it must be a coincidence that my birthday clashes with your anniversary day.

Keep blessing us with your wealth of knowledge and have fun on this platform, more SBD's, Steem and steem power.

One day we too will get to that point when we would look back and be happy for our achievements, just as you are now. Thanks @rok-sivante, from @tobex

Oh... and Happy Birthday!
(Left ya some β€œpresents” via your comments page. ☺️)

(Also, I had no idea you were a sound engineer. Cool. 😎)

Β  Β· Β 7 years agoΒ 

Oh, yes I'm it's a skill I learnt in school. Though I still have a whole lot to learn, because I didn't learn it formally. Thanks also for the wonderful present you gave to me @rok-sivante, this is one of my best birthday gift. I'm really grateful. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

One really awesome resource that might be priceless for you:

Pensado’s Place

It’s a weekly YouTube show hosted by Dave Pensado, a very reputable mix engineer. He brings on very successful engineers and producers - great discussions, lots of tips and amazing insights, and short β€œInto The Lair” tutorial sections...

He’s up somewhere around 350 episodes on the YouTube channel - some real gold in there!

If you’re committed to continue learning in the field, it’s really an exceptionally outstanding free resource - quite amazing way to be exposed to so many highly successful leaders, in such a casual, friendly way that speaks so dearly to the love for the art.

For real. Commit to watching a few episodes to test it out - intuiting your way to those with any engineers/producers that particularly stand out / resonate with / appeal to you. ** Very** worthwhile investment of time... ;-)

happy for 2 years, journey worthy given thumbs up. you have made many changes for me and my friends, it is seen from the way you treat us. although significantly you do not care for us like teachers and students in the classroom, but in secret you have been keeping me from some cheats to develop distemem. it's been proven by you, you are one of the great guys I've gotten, and now I've also applied what you gave us, at least I've given thanks to some people through the real proof by putting them into my steemvoter, no longer through words. this is something very useful for someone. so "what do you think next ?, I do not think you need to think so long for the future, because that will be a burden on your mind, you just stay through what is happening now with passion without tireless, and I will always pray to you to always find the easy way to face life, always happy to your family and hopefully healthy always brother, I am waiting for you back to Indonesia.


Thanks @rok-sivante. πŸ˜πŸ™

so "what do you think next ?, I do not think you need to think so long for the future, because that will be a burden on your mind, you just stay through what is happening now with passion without tireless...

Excellent perspective.

That is wise.

And perhaps just what I needed to hear at this time.

Happy to have you here, Rok, and grateful for you as an artist, collaborator & supporter of the arts.

May Steemit continue to give you the freedom to live and create in a way that is healthy & healing.

I was just thinking to myself, today, of my definition of unemployed and the best answer that I came up with is: when we are spiritually disconnected...

May we remain employed/spiritually connected βœ¨πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’«β€οΈ

Congratulation @rok-sivante πŸ‘good to know some rare story about you. life is a struggle and you stood strong. ...my situation is somewhere the same too ....and with not much opurtunity at sight i will also move to full time steemian. The only issue that i am seeing is that when you have started, the whales are eager to support new user in their growth but now there are not much support. Whales are not much bothered and everyone is ddepending upon use of bidbots. So i am still in dark......not sure even if i can get bread ......everything in dark....and i am lost....

Hello @rok-sivante

Congratulations on the occasion if your steemiversary.

No doubt steemit is a life changer but depending on how it is approached.

I put those reservations aside and began focusing on creating and sharing value.

I guess if you had focused on the money first, you would have long be gone but your priority was on adding value and that explains why you have come this far without getting tired. And no noobs view it this way, they will have more chances if success

All the best

Two years is a very long journey. You have created history in this world. I'm sure a lot of your works have made some people your fans. It was so spectacular. Adventure in a world of platforms that give you an edge. You are great and really great. Suppose there is a history list on this platform, one of those lists is you. During your follow-up I've gained a lot of lessons, be it from your paper's actions and how you communicate. I'm sure you have the power to continue to create good through this platform. You have a great principle. Hopefully your music world will be even more amazing. I hope that you love what you are doing right now. God's good luck and blessings are always with you. Love greetings that do not count. Thank you for all the support and attention you have done so far.

Hey! So I've had my SteemIt account for over a year now but have not been active at all and I was inspired to finally open it up tonight and boom! Your post is what caught my eye on the feed and I just got that nudge that I've got to read it!

Several times whilst reading I wanted to type comments on what you were saying - I mean this post hits so many spots with me it's incredible. But nothing is a coincidence right? :D "intuitive nudge", "breadcrumb trail" ... DJing in Bali!!! I just got started on this path I'm super excited to make people happy through my music, just got my Numark set ... and I've had Bali on my mind for days!!!

Totally get you regarding the 9 to 5 - I assure you, continue to follow your joy and the Universe will make room for you. Focus on what you want - our thoughts really do create our realities.

Catch you soon! All the best mate!

Steemit has gone beyond being a decentralized social media platform to becoming a means of livelihood for some people. This brainchild of @ned has transformed so many lives in such a short period of time. But then apart from the rewards, steemit has helped me meet a lot of amazing people and let me not get started on the contents being uploaded on a daily basis. It's amazing how much knowledge is out there. For example, I learnt everything I know about the blockchain while on steemit.
My one year anniversary on steemit is next week and looking back. I have a lot to be thankful for. Thanks for reminding me this @rok-sivante

Congratulations on your journey so far. Unlike you, I didn't get to experience the early stage of steemit but I can pick more than two points and lessons. Guess steemit has made the Canada dream come to pass.
A grateful heart is also blessed with more and you have also supported minnows who are trying to find their way up same way you said some whales did.

Joined steemit february this and steemit is changing my life and financial status. I am grateful to the community. Wish you more years of continuous progress and more goals to be achieved.

First of all i want congratulate you on achieving this two years journey on this platform and i want to wish you great heights on Steemit Platform and also in life. And good know your roller-coaster journey and how your financial condition was flattened then phase of marriage and thought about the Stable Income Source, and also good to know that you've been an DJ for four years all these words are inspiring, and in my opinion life always throw great path towards those who never stop working towards their passion and no matter what they face they lead forward, so it's your hard work which opened the new opportunity and in future also your hard work will open various opportunities.

And i believe that in future you will do more amazing work on Steemit because these are tough days on Steemit and the real growth is holding by future and that journey will be more amazing to explore.

Thanks for sharing this post with us and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. πŸ™‚

A very good story about how Steemit influenced your life. Nowadays, people rarely return to say words of gratitude, so it was very pleasant to read your story.
It is a pity that @nia.kningty stopped appearing on Steemit. Give her my regards.

A top steemian at 35% remaining voting power! Much respect @rok-sivante. If all senior Steemians work like you in reward hardworking Steemians, I think retention rate of thus platform will have been more than its currently is.

Thanks @rok-sivante

@eurogee of @euronation and @steemstem communities

It's great to read such a happy ending story about Steemit.
As you said Steemit has ups and lows.
I have found myself wandering from one subject to the next and still trying to find my grounds here.

One thing that I can ascertain is that there is definitely a community of genuine and interesting people. It's just a matter of connecting with the right people on Steemit.

I hope the platform evolves nicely with its times and becomes more popular and more interesting at the same time.

Congratulations, the steemit experience is one that can only be likened to a dream. The only difference is that it is real and happening. The experiences is aptly described as a rollercoaster; it takes you up and sometimes down. Here's wishing you more fruitful days ahead. Cheers✌️

Hi @rok-sivante. Thank you very much for sharing a life story that adds to my spirit. And what really intrigues me is your successful experience at Steemit and that you've lived in Bali. That's amazing for me.

It turns out that you've been to Indonesia.
In addition to Bali, do you ever visit to Aceh?

No.

If you go back to visit Indonesia, then don't forget to to Aceh. In the Steemit, is very much a user from Indonesia who came from the province of Aceh.
Aceh is rich with natural beauty unspoiled by human hands which greedy.
