Talent is just hardwork manifesting in excellence. There is no talent without hardwork. Before steemit, I was a promoter, a student and a shy boy. Hihi, i was shy and i didnt even realise it because i had nothing better to compare my life to. I am not here to paint steemit to be the all great platform that most people claim it is. I am just sharing my side of the story. Steemit is like every other tool, without practise, hardwork and consistency, it will always seems like the most difficult task to accomplish.
By the way, i am Tuah Acheampong. Before the blockchain, i was a network marketer of Max international and a student at the University Of Development Studies. My life was actually not so bad without the blockchain as i was preparing myself for the future through my network marketing company. I wasn't actually doing incredibly well neither was i failing. Though not too great, i managed to recruit and sell a number of products which i was very proud of. One thing i have learnt from my journey through network marketing is that we are all selling something and we need to know how best to sell it. On steemit, we are basically selling our ideas. The one who has the most convincing thoughts get the most followers and upvotes. All successful people in life have something to sell and they are actually successful because they know how to sell it. I learnt how to sell at Max internation and I am still perfecting it through steemit that is why i am still a promoter on steemit.
Basically, nothing much have changed in regards to what i used to do before joining steemit. The metamorphosis that has occurred is actually just a subject of product change. I am still a promoter but not that of max international. We have a saying in Akan that reads like;
Obi akɔnnɔdeɛ ne odompo nsono
Literally: Someone’s delicacy is the intestines of an odompo.
Presumably, the odompo’s guts are widely considered undesirable, yet, that is what somebody enjoys eating. So we can’t condemn someone for his preference. This is similar to the English proverb “One man’s meat is another man’s poison” and perhaps “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.”
That being said, Max International is not a bad company to join as they have a good product but i actually enjoy steemit the more. I was talking to a friend just yesterday about steemit and he said steemit is not his preference. Everyone has his/her choice of preference. When i took up steemit, i decided to continue with my sales learning and broadcast steemit to the Ghanaian populace as my choice. That i have been doing and doing quite well for some time. So my blockchain is filled with newbies crawling and trying to stand on their feet.
Definiteness is the key to success. Thats why an objective must be specific. I have laid down a set of objectives to drive my success on steemit. As a Ghanaian, i want to see this platform filled with all the Ghanaian cultures, traditions and lifestyles.I am actually had a hectic time trying to stabilize on this amazing community and i wouldn't want any of my people to have such a hectic time trying to share our culture, customs and traditions for the whole world to know about it.
My measure of success on steemit is dependent on how far the Ghana steemit community thrive. Whether we leave an indelible print on the blockchain or not. So i am seeing this through, to the end. The legacy we are leaving behind is my success story being registered on the blockchain. I might be untalented today, but that prevents me not from sharing my views.
Its your boy @tj4real

you are right, I have never looked at it that way, we do all have something to sell, even our ideas! What a great interpretation of what we all do here in steemit. I was asked by a friend why I got paid for blogging on steemit and I couldn't think of a reason, this basically would have answered her question in one go! We have value, even in our ideas. When we share them, if people find value in them, we may receive reward for them. Such a great way of thinking about life!

@tj4real God bless the moment I stumble on your post. I totally agree with your submission that we all have something to sell. There is nobody born without a seed, that means everybody has something to offer in life.
You are rewarded in life based on what you are selling/offering, who you are selling to and how difficult it is to find a replacement for what you are selling/offering.
So many people live on borrowed identity while they bury their own true identity. Whereas, our originality lies in our uniqueness.
You deserve my upvote brother.

It's easy, it simply involves talking of yourself, ambition, vision, aspiration, life etc just before you found steemit. Then conclude with a summary of life now after steemit. Let's see if the is a sort of merge. If you have been able to bring all those aspirations to continue shining on steemit by means of steem or if you have lost yourself. Too, let's see if there hasn't been great positive change "steemit effect" since you join steemit and i am sure there is but it is under #untalented meaning, you can exercise all freedom "flaws allowed"! Every participant wins something as i will visit before post ends and give every entry some support. To conclude the post, you should do a fun meme, showing life before steemit and life after steemit. This is the fun part and you can do a meme with paint etc or on imgur.com/memegen. In every case, feel free. Overall, the #untalented family is a home to every level/form or gift or talent, so feel free to use it.
