A warm greetings to everyone!
Can’t believe I’m finally here. Thanks to Steemit Team for giving this chance of becoming a Steemian.
I’m not sure if you are interested of knowing about me but since it’s my very first post , let me open my book for you to read the first page of myself and my thoughts.
“Belle” is just a half of my first name – Loribelle which means “laurel”, a symbol of victory. My first day in this world was 24 years ago. I grew up in one of the 7,641 islands of the Philippines, yes you’ve read it correctly it’s the current number of islands here. I had spent my 5 years living in another island to finish my tertiary education. After all the struggles I went through, I graduated from college with a bachelor’s degree in Accountancy and got my license in the year 2015.
I got my first job as an accountant but after more than a year I decided to explore other field. I’m currently employed as an internal auditor at AMA – the first ICT University in the Philippines.
People who don’t know me for who really I am would think I am a snob, arrogant and anti-social but the truth is I am just a quiet, shy type person who preferred to spend time alone or at least with a small group of friends because to be honest I am not really comfortable being around with a lot of people. In other words, I am an introvert with a low self-esteem who is unable to make friends easily, and it’s really a struggle for me.
Thinking how would I succeed in my career with this kind of personality? I don’t even know. But I know I can be better. I’m actually trying to overcome it, but we know it won’t just happen overnight. I can’t make it alone. Somehow I need the help of other people, I need your help. I need to be understood and accepted for who I am. Maybe in this way I could build up my self-confidence and learn to communicate myself well, at least through writings.
Although I am not really a writer, I may not even good in writing, but I am here because I believe it could be a helpful outlet. It’s my way of expressing everything I want to say, words that I cannot say in front of other people, and thoughts that I have been keeping in my mind.
But then again the question is “How would I succeed? How would I become a successful Steemian?”
The answer depends on how we define success and for me success means happiness in doing what we love to do. And I love being here. I would definitely love to share my writings here.

First off, welcome! Secondly, the view from your office looks pretty dope. And thirdly, you can do or be anything you want to be...I would say stop voicing those thoughts in your head that say "I can't do this" or "I can't do that", "I'm no good at writing" blah, blah, blah.... DO. NOT. LISTEN. You are unique and have a gift to share with the world. We all do--but we listen to those voices in our head that in the end prevent us from accomplishing our work on this planet. You're 24 and have the rest of your life to design.
I would say begin today, and not tomorrow! And, it looks like you have already done that by writing your post in Steemit. I wish you the best in 2018. This community has a lot of really cool people who are willing and able to help others. Best to you!
You're right, maybe I should tell myself "I can" rather than "I can't". Thank you for all that encouraging words. I'll keep it in my mind.
Welcome to steemit and best of luck here :)
I must say I never really understood accounting, can't get my head around all those numbers :)
Thank you :)
It's true, accounting is not really easy to understand :) but when you learn to love it, you'll understand it just as how we able to understand the person we love :)
