Don’t like (Social Media) yet Steemit might be worth it!
My name is Omar Lahmar (37)
Father of 2 amazing kids, proud husband, Apple IT ninja by day and wedding & street photographer in my spare time. Am an evangelical Christian, though I would never push my personal faith upon others, you may ask me about it if you like.
I Love studying life and personal growth. Also, photography and UNIX/OpenSource.
My take on life in general is: “Best enjoyed when studied!”
Recently my colleague and friend @s3rg3 told me passionately about Steemit.
After my initial reservation, I decided to do some research. My slight hesitation was because I’m no fan of social media, because of the emptiness of the content and meaningless likes. Moreover, the endless timelines full of miscellaneous stuff people tend to dump.
So, what about Steemit? I came to realise that the potential promise this platform holds could be incredible!
One of my favourite mentors is the legendary (Jim Rohn) which said:
"You don't get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour."
In this conviction, I believe Steemit can do very well, because of it's greatest resource
It’s community. It is like a self-cleansing mechanism; the people have the power to curate and reward content of value.
I hope to share some valuable life experiences along some inspiring photography and meet the Steemit community. You are welcome to read my posts, ask questions and have a good discussion.
Omar,
Welcome to SteemIt!
I was not a fan of social media either, but SteemIt changed that!
You are now part of a sharing and caring community who share many goals in common no matter where they are in the world.
Have a great week!
Steem on,
Mike
Tnx etcmike nice avatar you have! :)
Omar! Welcome to Steemit! Welcome Home ;-)!
Thank you! Hope to interact with you guys!
Thank's my friend!
Welcome to steemit!!
Merci!
He Omar, nice introduction! Welcome to Steemit!
Thanks allot exyle!
Steemit fixes the problem that I have with a lot of other social media, why should I contribute to a platform where I make content and profits for the owners but get no share of my own? Here I get rewarded for the content I create. It is a fair system. Other social media just isnt fair.
Fairness is the main reason I am on Steemit. It just feels better than all those other social media
That's a good take on it justtryme90!
