Ahoy Steemians! Introducing Try And Thrive!

[tryandthrive]

My name is Jan. I am coming from the Earth and I am very excited to land on this flourishing Steem planet. I am landing here because I miss some ingredient in my life on the Earth alone.

I think what I miss in my life is a way to help and inspire Steemians and Earthians across the universe.

What I will write about?

Who knows right? It might be whatever fascinates me at the moment probably somewhere around the topics I stated in my profile. I plan to make easy to understand guides, bitcoin examples in java, write stories and experiences from my travels and share what I have found in my life of full-time learning and exploring. My ultimate challenge is to create an easy to use system for those who need and want to make basic income with the minimal time cost so they are able to learn new things, improve their brain's software to the level they understand that education system is fucked up and travel to the beautiful places around the world while there are still some left. Then I believe these people may start helping others. Let's see how it goes..

Yeah, you guessed it right I am sitting at the weirdos' table. Unfortunately, it is scary how many years took me to find out and then how many years took me to act. Fortunately, I am here.

“If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it would not seem so wonderful at all.” - attributed to Michelangelo Buonarroti

What am I doing?

I have spent a lot of time playing online poker during the last five years. I have learned from poker that mistakes are inevitable, that my only shot is to ensure not to repeat the same mistake again and again. Recently I have recognized that playing poker for a living might be a mistake in my case, that it does not satisfy me anymore and I have decided not to repeat the mistake by trying to achieve further poker goals. Don't get me wrong I still love this exciting game, and I will continue to study poker and play it for fun. Because poker should be fun!

So there is another thing I could do for you, and it is to analyze your poker hands here on steemit. Let me know in the comments if anyone would be interested.

Who am I?

Satoshi Nakamoto stayed anonymous and I believe it is the best way to go. That's why the Bitcoin is so resilient and that's how I will try to protect my freedom of speech and authenticity. Furthermore I don't seek any personal recognition or appreciation. I will be happy enough if you like the content on Try And Thrive and I will be OK if you don't.

Hello tryandthrive! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
