Hit An All-Time High of 5000 Followers Yesterday... And I'm Over The Moon About It!

in #story7 years ago

Well, this is one milestone I’ve been trying to attain for some time now. And yesterday was the chosen day it would seem. I opened my Steemit blog page as per usual and after a few seconds, saw what I was meant to see.

Now, I've been on this awesome platform for almost as long as I can remember now, lol. And of course I realise many Steemians out there are way ahead of me as far as this significant figure is concerned. But regarding my own journey, I consider 5,000 followers a monumental personal achievement, coming from someone who'd never posted a thing in his life previously. That's right, no Instagram or Facebook. Unbelievable, right? Which leads me to the biggest shout-out you can imagine to each and every one of you who was gracious enough to "click" that follow button and add me to your honourable roster of worthy content creators. Thank you so much, my fellow Steemian friends. You've no idea how much that means to me. Bless you all.

So, obviously at this point in time, the next huge landmark target to strive toward would be 10,000. However, with enough determination and drive, I believe I can make it some day. Primarily, I've been a writer here on Steemit and intend to return to my "native lands" very soon now. I had started a few projects in the past. Three, in fact, that are in urgent need of being finished up and which is something I am getting more and more focused upon doing.


Tonight is gonna be a busy one for me though. I'm leaving for a trip to Croatia for the next ten days. And lord knows, I damn well need a holiday. The sun, sea and fresh air of a new, beautiful setting will rejuvenate even the most tired of cells within my body. However, the flight is an early one. Around 7am or thereabouts, so sleep will most definitely be out of the question. I've never had the pleasure to visit this particular part of Europe so am feeling pretty charged up and raring to go.

And also on a final mention, I'm looking forward to collaborating with the awesome @exyle after his win at being the first "boss" in @aggroed's ever-so-popular Steemmonsters. He was kind enough to select me as the writer to pen the outline history of his new character. So, much appreciation and humbling respect ushered his way for thentrusting me with that task. I won't let you down. And as I added before, it also seems to have had the welcoming effect of kick starting a whole new slew of motivations as well as new original ideas to pursue regarding my own personal story writings too. Much to look forward to on a few fronts them. Life is good. No, scratch that.

Life is great.

Well that's some good points that you shared today, bud,

First of all congratulations on reaching 5000 followers iam also on my way to reach their,almost half way reached,😅

And best of luck for your holiday and iam really surprised to know that @exyle called you for writing a back story of his steemmonsters character bcz i read his post yesterday where he was saying that he approached a professional writer to write his story and i never thought that he was talking about you bro,

Great news, waiting to see you two live or in a Dtube video together 😇

Iam also celebrating my 1st year anniversary on Steemit and if you got some time then give a visit to my blog for seeing that post and give your feedback.✌️👍

Yeah, I've written dozens of short stories exclusively on Steemit as well as a two novels. One completed and the other a few chapters away. Congrats on your first year on this amazing platform. :)

Waaooo that's great man,iam gladr that you have so many talents except from Gaming 😉

Congrats @ezzy that is such a great accomplishment. Iam just trying to get to 1,000 Followers so I'm far behind you ;)

Anyway, last night I kinda of hit a milestone I have been aiming for since I joined in December. And that was to get to 2,000 SP. I pulled the Trigger and bought 947 Steem and powered on up to get me over that 2K SP figure.

Anyway, in my recent post at my blog I talk about the reasons I decided to get more Steem.

Cheers,
Robert

So happy to hear that, bud! Man, hang on to that SP and you'll see how well things will turn out for you! Fantastic stuff! Thanks for stopping by. :)

Certainly an accomplishment! It's good evidence of what can happen when someone focuses on providing quality content.

Thank you! Hopefully can keeping climbing higher... :)

Congratulations. You deserve more followers.

Thank you for saying. :)

Congratulations for achieving another milestone on steemit my friend, your blog have been educative , informative, insightful, enlightening and entertaining as well, better days ahead buddy @ezzy

Many thanks, bro. Appreciate the kinds words. :)

Congratulations bro. You've gat to celebrate this with Steem giveaway o. Lol 😂

Lol, I'll seriously consider it! Thanks, man! :)

That's a huge achievement @ezzy. Lol, everything just look easy. Weldone man, 5k followers is no joke. It shows that you're a valuable person. I've gotta join the moving train, I've gotta follow too!

Awesome, brother! Thank you for the follow and your humbling words. :)

It's my great delight to follow you. It's my pleasure dear @ezzy

Congratulations sir, i love steemit. and i appreciate your blog. thanks a lot for your post sharing.... upvote and resteemit done.

Congratulations man, if I make a 5000 followers, I'd be over the sun. I'm happy for you and I know you earned it. Forward match to that 10,000 mark.

That's the way, my friend! :)

Hey super @ezzy reached 5000 followers. I didn't read your stories yet. I got attention of your name on many places like "@ezzy - a fiction story writer" you got advertise on many places. That bring you to this 5k followers hope soon you make ×2 .

Congrats! But remember, follower count isn't everything on Steemit. I passed 7,500 followers recently, but look at how paltry my earnings are lately. It's really about who is following you. Whether that's a problem or feature of Steemit really depends who you ask.

I respect everybody who follows me, man. Regardless of SP. The model is changing for the Steem blockchain so we will all have the opportunity to hit that reset switch and start from scratch.

Is it? Can you supply more info about what you mean? I haven't heard of this.
