My name is Matt, Iโm an extroverted introvert from Michigan. My Brother @stanmr introduced me to Steemit. Iโd like to thank him here for that.
A little about me:
โข Food is important to me for medical reasons and others. I have some favorite plant-based (vegan) recipes to share.
โข I despise politics, especially the really polarizing crap. However, I have some things to say regarding politics. People have a serious lack of respect for each other and their rights, from all sides, it really bothers me.
โข Unfortunately, Iโve been a cardiac patient since the age of 38โฆ. Yes, it was from smoking and a crappy diet! (Hence the plant-based food. I own itโฆ)
โข Iโm an industrial machine salesman. Yes, a real traveling salesman. Sometimes itโs difficult for me with the level of rejection I get. But I do like to meet new people and Iโve made a few friends doing this work.
โข My wife and I like to travel when we can plan enough in advance to break away from our busy jobs. Sharing our adventures is fun for both of us. Iโm quite a bit more adventurous than she.
In a nutshell my favorite interests are:
โข Travel, Health, diet, psychology, investing, personal motivation and freedom.
Favorite quotes:
โข "If you donโt stand for something, you will fall for anything."
-Alexander Hamilton
โข "Show me your friends, Iโll show you your future."
-Dan Pena
โข "You must not fight to often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war."
โ Napolรฉon Bonaparte
