I decided to try a drama by relating how minnows begin here on steemit, i have since longed to write a post which seems more like a play but it has a lot to work on .so i made a decision to start with this relating how minnows start.
the light dimmed,with a small ray of light illuminating from the top of the ceiling. The curtain rolled as the audience sat silently waiting to see what the event was all about. Finally the light was on, there on the stage was a table with a phone on it and a chair
the drama has three characters: Tunde (david's friend) , David(Tunde's friend) and magret(Tunde's girlfriend)
A call came through
Tunde who was seating on a chair hurried up to pick the phone
Tunde: hello, david what's up? It's being days you called, hope your girlfriend hasn't given your another problem?
David: Not today, she has turned a romantic girl all of a sudden ,i think my wallet has being able to buy those trouble
Tunde: David,you? Having a good wallet? Who delivered you from your cashless state, i hope you did not steal your father's money
david: i am now a born again
Tunde: hahahaha, i wonder the number of anointed oils they might have used to finally clean your sins.
David: 500 anointed bottles, i drank 400 and bath with 100.
after they both laughed, david continue Tunde i got introduced to a platform known as steemit and that has boost my financial independence.
Tunde: really? Hope this is no scam
David: Not at all, i actually called for this purpose.
Tunde: Am happy you are sharing this with me,its a sign your value our friendship.
david explained to tunde all he needed to know and shared the link for him to join
stage II
Tunde showing david his college certificate to help prove himself of more chances to succeed earlier
Tunde: You know i studied literature , writing is my hobby.
David: steemit is not that easy, you need time to succeed not minding your qualification. If intelligence worked for you in school, it doesn't work much here, patience , persistence ,creativity and passion is what works here
Tunde showed a face ,it was obvious he did not get the message
David continue
If you need any help do contact me.
stage III
showed tunde registering steemit
2 weeks later ,he was approved, which seemed to him like 2 years
Tunde: baby, very soon i will be rich and i promise to get you your needs
Magret: lets start with a #100 recharge card.
Tunde: Ah ah, don't tempt me, i just got approved in the platform david introduced to me and am yet to start writing but i know in two weeks time ,i ahould have enough.
Magret: i will need to change my phone , i want to be a part of it.
Tunde: Alright, but before changing your phone, go fast and pray for me. I need to start making my family proud.
Magret: just dont forget you have a wife
it was already two weeks since tunde started to blog and he was making no good money from it, and it seemed fustrated , he thought it was easier but here he was like he seemed unnoticed despite what he write and call quality content,david word was now dawn on him that patience was a virtue to hold on to
David: hello
Tunde: omoh, Am still battling with $0.09 on all my post , Are you sure steemit is for me
David: you need to be patient ,it takes time
Tunde: But you made it faster
David: that was a luck, most people start the way you do.
door swing open, magret came into tunde's room
Tunde: David i will call you later
Magret: who are you with on phone
Tunde: that was david
Magret: this days you call him more than you call me
Tunde: someone is getting jealous
magret shrubbed
Tunde: I feel like giving up, steemit isn't working for me, i dont see a future from it.
Magret: i think you need to be patient, i believe everyone who is great started this way. And you call them successful today because they never gave up.
Tunde found a new strength from magret words and made a choice to remain
stage IV
its being two months and yet tunde was seeing no progress but decided to press on. i have read on what minnow should do and progress ,he has actual done them but nothing was changing . before now he has fantasied on several things but it was just like a dream to him now
Tunde reluctantly logged in his blog. And there was this smile
Immediately he picked up his phone to call david.
David: Hope you are not calling me for a bad new since that's all i have being hearing from you lately.
Tunde: if i don't share my bad news with, who else,but today is a good one. I just made a $100 in my last post. It was like a dream but this is real
And that marked the beginning of Tunde's success on steemit. This can also be you
To all minnows - patience, persistence and hope pays. Keep steeming.
I love the positivity, this story is very cute! Keep on writing :)
Thank you! Am happy you appreciate the work. This is an encouragement
