I started this great adventure in January 2018 with my first account @helengutier , I was invited by a great friend, but she was not a user of steemit but her daughter and I never knew her user, because I quit that job, at that time I was looking for an escape something that would help me to drain my feelings, at that moment I was going through a break, that affected me a lot my life and my family.

My first impression was that I could give free rein to my feelings in reality, I made many mistakes, I did not place fonts, I did not know the commands to justify the text, I had to learn alone, then I met discord and well there was different and I met many people who helped me to understand.

That first account @helengutier, is more about me and my feelings, with time and by very extreme situations I lost that account and I believe in July of 2019 @helengutier2, where I made a turn on what commonly published, see, I am Venezuelan, dentist by profession, I have more than 20 years of professional practice and by circumstances of life I had to emigrate to another country where I practice and I can send money to my family in Venezuela, currently I live in Bogota, Colombia.

Here alone without my family writing has become my catharsis, so they suggested I publish about my work.
And so I publish about dentistry and my clinical cases.

My initial challenges and how I overcame them
My initial challenges were to get them to vote on my content, I started with personal issues but they were undervalued, I did them more for relief, then I saw the need to post about oral health and it became my plus
I began to write the clinical cases of patients that come to my office, in a simple way without so much technicality, and the users are interested in the content, it goes without saying, that I take the subjects of the comments and suggestions that my readers leave in the publications, that made me monetize and grow the account in a very fast way so much that it impresses me.

My favorites of steem
I concentrate on publishing the clinical cases of my practice and my photos are in my work and I divided my blog in sections where I change a little the way to expose for example I have a section called: My Daily Practice, there I develop the cases and I explain them in a more understandable way the treatments, indications, cares, I have another call; Clinical photography, there I place the before and after the cases, also I write poetry is another of the ways in which I express my feelings.

So I'm taking my theme to make it enjoyable, and not to be repetitive

My gold nugget tip
My advice is perseverance, to be persistent and not to stop has been my secret, to listen to suggestions of users with more time in the platform and to get your plus, to be original I think that a striking title that attracts makes the reader interested and reads you of course you can get votes and reputation.

My Steem Hood and its looks
I am in many servers in discord where I share with all I have that facility to make friends @steemitasclub, this is where I share more and I am part of the team is a super happy and special group where you can talk about anything, @emprendedores2.00 here I am an investor with a great team, @votovzla, here I share live healings, programs and I participate in almost all the activities is a very active group, @radiosteemit, here I listen to music even I am pleased to listen to the interviews and even I sing karaoke one night or another, @cervantes here I go participating in the postcats and I collaborate as a writer of articles in the magazine cervantes-ciencias, thanks to the invitation of my friend @alexaivytorres.

Among the users that I follow and have marked me with their advice friendship and with which I share daily tengo:@alarconr.22art, @ritch, @acido1120, @elgranpoeta, @abneagro, @alexaivytorres, @sevillaespino, @nestorgarcia, @vikvitnik , @yeceniacarolina, @elsan.arte and many more the list would be very long.
Thanks to this incredible world I have met wonderful people, I have grown as a person and as a steemias.
