What I've discovered for 2 weeks on steemit.....

in #steemit8 years ago

Hello, my friends! I've been full of emotions and thoughts, even fears like "What's that feeling?". And for the past two weeks I've been just living on steemit! In the morning as soon as I open my eyes I turn my computer on and go on steemit. It is time to ask myself a question: "What is it - a desire to compete or is it the financial part that keeps me going? Why is it so important?"

Phew! I've finally found the answer and I like it. It's not a drug, it's my motivation power, my interest towards something big and new. I can also get money for that and it's one of the biggest motivations for self-growth. My life becomes full of things I like and things that influence my life in a positive way. 

When I read posts and chat messages I see that some people are sad because their posts are not valued as much as they want or even have not been read at all. So these people give up writing and stop communicating at all. And it is so, so sad! It's extremely sad that you don't see other opportunities that your actions bring.

When I was writing my first posts I was thinking about popularity and money too. And well, maybe my posts were not valued as high as I wanted, but I'm grateful to people who commented on my posts. And if there is at least one person that got some help from my posts or one person who became a little bit more happy, I find it a great motivation to write on. It's my own (maybe a small one, but still) contribution to other people?

Because of these posts I've been to many interesting places, to exhibitions and museums (I didn't always have time for that before). And when I'm posting about cooking, my family loves it so much, they dance around me! And of course they love tasting my masterpieces. It's very easy and exciting! I didn't know a lot about computers and Internet before, didn't know how to download something or how to put a picture on a web page. Where to click, what to do? I was in panic, I was almost in depression! It was like an explosion in my head, I don't speak English, I don't know what button to press, how to register, but my desire to live and to be a part of steemit was more strong than my fears. It's been just two weeks and looking back makes me smile. 

I've learned so much and it's because of my friends who showed me steemit. They were so patient when they were teaching me! My life experience is now full of new skills and emotions. But even more, those skills help me in my work. And I have a new goal now. Can you guess what it is??? Learning English of course! I really want to thank those people who created steemit. I think it was very generous of them to create something like steemit and letting people show themselves from different angles. Steemit brings a lot of positive and good things to people's lives. A lot of posts are extremely deep and thoughtful. I want to wish each and every one of us success and prosperity! 

My dearest steemit friends, go on writing your posts and sharing your thoughts and stories! It's really interesting! Just live your lives and don't expect anything to happen. It's our expectations that lead to frustration. When you are expecting something, you don't really live.

My best wishes to all of you!

It's a versatile platform to express and obviously the money's nice. It really does feel like an avenue of freedom to just write, explore, and connect.
