An obvious answer would be my parents. People always said that I look similar to my dad and I wanted to be like him. To me it always seemed like my dad was great at many things( I don't think that I have ever won against him in chess even when he was starting without some figure.), very knowledgeable about almost everything, able to speak about different subjects. Also I started liking watching basketball because we went to watch games with my dad.
ignoring that. like I said in last week's topic I used photos of a few steemit hive girls as an outline for my art. Some of my ,,models'' also inspired stories that I wrote as addition to my visual art. When I saw @reinhard-schmid and @whornung making moving art I tried to do that as well. In his last post @tarazkp said the he has not missed a day of posting here since 2017. Others like myself have been at times gone from here but most of us are still here and somehow active. So if I will buy hive it will be partly because I have seen members from hive sticking to this place in both good and bad times. I know very little about crypto but I see that people I know are not abandoning this ship. That is something I trust. These topics of yours are encouraging me to be more active so you are influencer as well. Also I (super ntrovert) wanted to travel first to Krakow and then to the end of the world Bangkok because I wanted to meet a few people. If that doesn't make them influencers than I am not sure what influencer is.
That is so good that other hivers influenced you, and I think many of us have our hive influencers. It builds a better community.
We hope that there will be again a year that a hivefest can be hold in the presence 🙏
Well covid restrictions has to end sooner or later... but will probably end later...
@galenkp Is spot on with the parents first, but closely followed by and in addition to is the older siblings. They really do make us who we are.
I never had a sibling. But it is interesting to think how different my life would be if I had one.
Most of the times it would be better one would think. My situation is the exception.
I have just one son... and he so many times said that he would like to have a sibling. I have a sister, she will be mentioned here hehehe
My parents have influenced me a great deal in so many ways that I can't really say now. Through my stay here in hive, I have come across many that have given a reason to push forward, that is the meaning of being influenced even though when it didn't look encouraging but till this very moment, I have come to enjoy my stay here and I hope you do as well
Thank you. I am also enjoying my stay here.

I like your point that in some way we are all influencers and I like the way you motivate yourself, I also think that our parents were our first influencers.
Los padres nuestros primeros 9nfluencer solo por impulsar la vida en nosotros, hay un enorme agradecimiento
Parents are, of course, the first influencers in anyone's life and their impact is massive in a person's young life and can affect all of life until the end.
Of course along the way there are so many others too, even people we do not know influence us. News readers, politicians, corporations, marketers, people on the street we observe, sports people and so on. Concepts also influence us...Uber, Facebook, Google, Instagram...The world is full of influences changing the way we act and think...It's up to us to sort them, make sense of them and then ignore or apply as we choose.
It's those choices that affect us most greatly as individuals.
I know you're somewhat introverted and have spent some time off-chain...So, what makes me happy is that you engage here, on the #weekend-engagement topic and with me on some of my posts also. Am I an influence? Maybe...Or maybe just an introverted guy like you who enjoys sharing thoughts, ideas, having fun and interacting with good people.
Thanks for joining in. It is greatly appreciated.

Creo que hive es influencia para que nos encontremos y reconozcamos el talento de las personas que aqui estamos, y cada quien en su tema es influencia para otros. Para mi eres en estos ultimos dias gran influencia para interactuar y motivarme a escribir de la vida y sus momentos, sencillos pero aleccionadores
I'm glad I have had some impact upon you and you've felt inspired to write a little more about your life. I always suggest people write with passion and personality here because those that read our words are people who have their own personality and passionate natures...People respond to people so showing a little of yourself here, some personality, is a good way to go I think.
ENGAGEtokens.
