The moment which changed your life?

The moment that changed my life as a person was when I got admitted into a higher institution. I never saw the four walls of my home because of some factors. My primary and secondary school was in a confined environment where my house was.

So I didn't have the privilege of associating with other people. Immediately I got admitted into the higher institution, and the story changed. I became very responsible because I was able to do things for myself and also make some decisions for myself.

Struggling alone in school without anyone telling me what to do and what not to do changed my life because a time came when I had to advise myself and also make some decisions to be a better person.

With that, I was able to discipline myself and I forced myself to study very hard which made me one of the tops in my class. So that moment of seeing myself alone in school changed my life.

Do you think the Steemit platform has changed your life?

Yes, the Steemit platform has changed my life greatly. Before this time, I never knew anything about online platforms and cryptocurrency but with the help of Steemit today, I have been able to earn money for myself.

Steemit has also changed a lot about me. When I started, I never knew about most of the tools used here like Grammarly, plagiarism checker, exchangers etc.

My knowledge of crypto trading and writing all came from the Steemit platform. Today if we are to write an article in class, I don't find it difficult at all because I'm already molded by the platform.

Practising every day has also caused a lot of improvement in me. Today I write more perfectly and I see much improvement in my writing as well. So Steemit has changed my life for the better if you ask me.

Share your success story.

Before I joined the Steemit platform, creating content was very difficult for me. Also, I depended completely on my parents for money for anything I needed in school. It was not very easy because they are salary earners and most times, only month end before they will send money to me.

Since I became a Steemian, I have remained consistent on the platform and I write daily. I withdraw some Steem when I'm in serious need of money and that has helped me a lot to solve many of my problems without even talking to my parents about it.

Today, I have close to 500 Steem Power which is a big achievement for me. That is what I have been able to save since I started my journey here on Steemit. I'm delighted to have such an amount because I'm sure it will help me solve some issues someday.

I want to invite @jyoti-thelight, @abdullahw2, and @josepha to join the contest also.
