🙋 THANKS FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT ! Lets Rewind ! When I first started on steemit in July 13th 2016 , I never even blogged before ! Just learning as well to use a computer was difficul t enough when I moved into town from the country as we never had internet out there, but is now available as of last year which is great! and I found using a tablet I bought just for steeming was much easier ! I never liked Facebook and only went on there to catch up on some family I have back east ,4 thousand miles away . My son signed me up on twitter but I never figured out really how it works , so other then send some steemit posts there and to Facebook I never go there !

🙋 But right from the start I fell in love with the steemit community which my sons told me about , and spent all my lonely graveyard shifts at my construction site as a security guard , blogging and sharing many posts on steemit from my Samsung Galaxy Tab E android tablet !

LETS REWIND : Heres 2 photos from 11 months ago when I first started on Steemit !!

🙋 The awesome Thanksgiving turkey dinner !

🙋 The very first Steemfest in Amsterdam was in November ! I made this poster as my contribution to advertising it ! As I couldn't attend and am not sure if I can attend the second one in Poland . No passport and its very far from British Columbia Canada !

🙋 This was an entry in @papa-peppers Wild and strange contest before Christmas ! This was taken at my job site lol ! good thing I work all alone on the night shift haha ! we had to try and cover our face and theres a lot of these at work for breathing !

🙋Then I also made a Happy Holidays Poster , again at work in the office ! theres a lot of supplies in there , and I had plenty of time inbetween hourly patrols to do it !

🙋These were from my last week at work as the job was completed and the new care facility was now ready for ifs new members ! I have been laid off since early February but still get odd jobs sometimes . This was where I learned about steemit , and did all my blogging from ! Also my last steemit Thank You ! Poster !

🙋 Mmmm ! Easter ham dinner !

🙋 Extra job watching a fire site !

🙋My very first Purchase about a month ago , I made with Steem !! I am no longer blogging on my tablet ! This tablet/ laptop Chromebook is awesome ! and very easy to use , THANKS STEEMIT I LOVE IT !!!

🙋 And my second purchase paid for with STEEM ! THANKS AGAIN STEEMIT ! I LOVE IT ! I have all ready shared several food posts of stuff I have cooked on it ! Its the best BBQ I have ever owned , and the only new one !!

🙋👍 Tips or Helps ! : 👍🙋

( 1 ) So that's just a brief glimpse of the many things I have done since joining steemit ! And what you can do too ! There's a ton of contests to enter , where you can possibly make steem or steem dollars on ! Its nice if you win and can build up your wallet when your new and just learning how things work around here !

( 2 ) Try to comment and respond to comments as much as possible ! it shows community support , and will gain you more upvotes or even resteems if your lucky ! also great comments can earn you a lot of upvotes at times , hopefully earning you even more steem or steem dollars in your wallet from a whale or dolphin ! And when you up vote your own comment , especially in contests , it moves it to the top of the page , so it gets better view a and hopefully more up votes!!

( 3 ) Just blog for the fun of it !! if you really love what your doing , the money will take care of itself ! Stay positive , dedicated , and dont give up ! anything worth having takes time , I started with nothing ! and brought no followers with me ! I dont even know anything about computers !! I now have 1,100 + followers im almost at reputation 70 , I became a dolphin and had over 11,000.00 steem in my wallet till I had to pay rent and accumulated debts after being off work for 2 months. Otherwise I was always a 100% steem power up person and advocated for it !

( 4 ) Stay connected with your followers and like minded steemians ! you can help each other out by upvoting and resteeming each other occasionally ! we will all go far if we work together and help each other out , and if you have questions , ASK ! Most steemians are more then happy to help out if they can .We are a very friendly bunch !

( 5 ) I noticed a lot of new members are posting their same post many times per hour or several times in 2 hours on Steemit Chat Post Promotion , also they are chatting a lot or asking everyone constantly for upvotes and resteems !! please guys , you are only supposed to post as close to once , per post ,every 2 hours there , and it is not for chatting , its for Post Promotion only and a brief reply or comments , there are many other areas in steemit chat for chatting ! Thank You !

🙋 If you have any further questions or would like to add anything else I missed , or would like to add , Please comment !! I would love to hear from you ! All up votes , resteems or follows are greatly appreciated ! Never stop steem ingredients on to the moon and back !! Woot Woot !!
