How I laugh heartily after joining steemit
WHO I WAS BEFORE I JOINED STEEMIT
To be plain, I was just a daydreamer. I could sit alone all day daydreaming about things I ought to do and ones I wish to change, I never made a move or should I say, there was no available moves. Asides the fact from being a student who goes for lectures and such school activities, I was also an educational zombie. I turned into a bookworm and would bury my burning potentials waiting to breakthrough in the comfort of the fonts. Not like reading is a bad thing but reading because you can't deliver is the worst thing.
I would watch seasonal films sometimes when I get tired of those books. I was not the type that relates easily with people, so the possibility of friendship was a no-no, also due to the fact that I was an introvert. Wasn't more of a social network person either. My Facebook, twitter, Instagram, Reddit and such account has been left inactive for years save for Whatsapp. Nothing interested me. I felt empty always. All this made me somewhat bitter and hostile to my environment. Whenever someone looked at me, he would say:
I see a potential in you waiting to be tapped.
Not like I didn't want to be tapped but how???
I was becoming frustrated by the day and determined that nothing was going to stop me from doing what I loved to do which was writing. I especially love to imagine scenarios and make a fiction out of it. I was a lazy one when it comes to reviving inactive social media account, so I made do with writing contents on Whatsapp Statuses. I termed it "Aderonke's Dilemma" because I always loved my fictions to end in a controversial manner that would ignite my audience. A few of my friends indicated interest which made me happy I was beginning to gain audience. But all this was short lived as Whatsapp status couldn't contain any longer, my ever growing fictional content. I started to seek advice.
It was at this time @ambmicheal who happened to be a dear friend and benefactor suggested I open a blog. He went as far as opening one for me. I decided it would be a nonprofitable one as I can sacrifice for anything that brings me joy. I started writing fictions on the blog. After this, I would copy the links and would start to share to all my contact. Some would read and others wouldn't. I was consistent about it. I developed contents everyday. I never knew I was going to be hurt by being consistent in what I loved best. My Whatsapp friends started complaining that I disturb them too much with links. Others simply said my consistency is making them bored. How can people be so ungrateful and discouraging? It was my idea and reading was absolutely free. I write great stories too. You can also check my blog for wonderful fictions www.aderonkemi.blogspot.com .
I thought I had forgotten frustration but this was a worse version of it. I felt rejected and scorned. Beforehand,@ambmicheal has in one way or the other discussed steemit with me but I never thought I could understand it as everything looked strange to me. He was a co- administrator on the blog so he understood what it meant to have nobody appreciate what I was doing. It was then he sat me down and thoroughly educated me about STEEMIT.
WHO I HAVE BECOME AFTER JOINING STEEMIT
In sincerity, what fascinated me at first about Steemit, was the fact that I could make money for doing what I know to do best. It sounded so coool so I signed up. I can proudly say, I have totally gotten my orientation changed in just my one week in steemit. I have discovered there is a lot to steemit asides the monetary compensation. The idea of having a larger community see my works is thrilling enough for me.
I have learned so many things since my acceptance into this glorious community. Cryptocurrency was not my thing, neither was the idea of a blockchain database but I can boldly say one or two things about these things now. Steemit enables me to learn more and honed my inner abilities. Even talents I never knew existed resurfaced. I wrote my first successful poem on the platform. Steemit also gears me to make researches in order to deliver accurately. These new found abilities would not only be useful for me in the steemit community but also in the larger society.

Steemit has helped mend my relationship with people. Unlike my introverted self, I see myself opening more to people these days. Every chance i get with people, I beam and don't hesitate to talk about my reason for happiness. I have been able to make so many amazing and inspiring friends on here too which I'm sure would go for a very long time. It is amazing to see people of same interest and goals as you are. It motivates and inspires one to do greater.
There is nothing compared to the ultimate sense of belonging one feels on here. I feel like a part of one big family and like in a team. I don't feel isolated from the rest of the world but rather attracting long lasting relationships from all spheres of the world. I have a lot of role models who pushes me to do great. Some of which are @surpassinggogle @stellabelle @sweetssj @dorth @samest @ogooluwa @destinysaid @michaelcj @plojslydia @ambmicheal @ejemai and so many more people I can't even finish mentioning. @curie has always gingered me to do great so I can meet up to standard. @cheetah has been there to help me maintain originality. Everyone so far has been amazing in contributing one way or the other to the success of Steemit.
I won't forget to recognize the significance of Communities to my development. @airhawk-project has always been a backbone one can rely and who motivates smaller fishes like me to become whales. Also is the lovely @steemnaira community that has taken pains to put newbies through the necessary parts of survival on Steemit. @Minnowsupport Pal on discord has been helpful to and the whole Seem it community as a whole.
I'm sorry for burdening you with such long writeup but I feel happy to share my positive transformation with y'all who happens to be my STEEMFAMILIES. Thank you for everything so far. I promise to always deliver originality at any cost. Thanks for reading through.
