My name is aduragbemi, i'm a nigerian and i started my steemit journey on the 19th of december, 2017. I would say i have been on this wonderful platform for more than just three month. When i started blogging on steemit, i faced so many challenges on steemit and i will like you to know that i still do. I'm a guy of optimistic nature but since we are all human, there were times i almost gave up but nevertheless, i'm still here trying to figure things out. About 9 days ago, i celebrated my 1000 followers milestone achievement and if you visit my blog you will see my followers growing at an alarming rate but in truth, i am beginning to think that i have nothing to offer them because when i check some of my followers blog, i see many quality post that doesn't receive the deserved attention but since my voting power is 0.01 or 0.00 sometimes, i couldn't upvote their post but i do resteem for more views, at least that is the little i can do.
I'm a writer, poet and an artist and i hope to explore new grounds soon. I work hard day and night to ensure i don't post trash and also maintain my reputation but still it was as though i never existed and i've dedicated more time on steemit even though i'm still a student.
The question i seek answers to is; if people check my wallet, they will see that i have a very small steem power and if after knowing this, why do they keep on following me? Why are they increasing with each day passing? If not for my steem power, then why?
I think people follow me for my content and because they believe in me and i say it out with pride that they are the reason why i don't give up, why i never will consider failure as an option. Thanks to you all
I believe if i win this 500sp, it will go a long way in making my dreams my reality. I would be able to improve my blog the more, upvote quality content etc.
