My Steemit Kickoff: A Journey in Finding My Niche.

in #introduceyourself6 years ago (edited)

#Blogging has always been a wandering thought to me.
This is because I have always loved quite a few things.

Food
Travel
Songs and who they’re for
Arts & DIYs!
Science and every matter’s existence
Fashion, preferably Styling
Writing and how to be a Manga-Ka!
But also be as glorious as J.K. Rowling.
Fitness (Well nah I just wanna get slimmer)
Skin care
Photography, video editing.
And several more etcetera

Well, that is quite a “few” many.

You see I once read that if you’re starting your own blog - You need to find your niche.
But what is a “Niche”?

A Niche is your Calling, a Function, a Vocation.

It is something that interests you so much, you will not mind getting paid or not. Something you’d like to keep on learning and discovering. Something you can be so earnest about that’ll keep you way late at night more than your telephone calls with bae. Something, that can make you both smile and teary as it had given you quite a feeling you’d wanna treasure for a while.

That “Something” had been already experienced by me, but in too many different occasions.

I belong to a mini Multimedia creatives team in which, we don’t get paid much but we continue as long as we take pics and edit videos. I did get into Calligraphy since last year and had bought too many pens & papers, and even attended a workshop to learn. Thanks to social media, I have quite stayed late at night when editing my posts as well as reading science passages or skin care blogs. And just quite recently, it’s been a while since I last felt this attached to a Manga after reading Hirunaka no Ryuusei (Daytime Shooting Star), and I honestly recommend reading this if you want some real feels.

As you can read, I am an extremely affectionate person, that gets too easily attached when interested. (Well considering my personal relationships, I can finally say that.)

But as Adulting comes and gave me a slap, I realised this will not always be a good ground.
As the saying goes,

You cannot chase two rabbits at once; Otherwise you’ll catch neither of them.

This piqued me that I need to find my strength. My Real Strength. That I should be a Master of at least one, and not just a Jack of anything. This is the ultimate must, for us to have that big break, that life changing divine intervention.

The ONE THING to make the World know who you are, and what you can be.

Just like how Bill Gates was known for Microsoft;
Or how Anne Hathaway made us laugh at Princess Diaries;
And how Mark Zuckerberg definitely changed this age.

And so, I am now posting here at Steemit and starting this own blog;

To define that really matters is to taking a step and making the start.
To share these experiences and all the randomness that pops in my life and hoping that later on, through these acts of beginning, I may finally cut the chase, and find where to rest my head at.

The same goes for you Reader, and may this journey be ours together.

Welcome to Steem Community @yahniears! As a gentle reminder, please keep your master password safe. The best practise is to use your private posting key to login to Steemit when posting; and the private active key for wallet related transactions.

In the New Steemians project, we help new members of steem by education and resteeeming their articles. Get your articles resteemed too for maximum exposure. You can learn more about it here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@gaman/new-steemians-project-launch

Welcome to steemit family! Good luck! I am sure that you will fully enjoy your journey here:)

Hi! thanks @petko! Really looking forward to the success of this. Same goes for you! :)

Te doy una calurosa bienvenida a Steemit, espero leer buenos posts de tu parte.

Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
Have Fun and Enjoy!

@joeyarnoldvn Hahahahaha! i see you can relate on that non-stick-to-one attitude like me. Quite frustrating sometimes right? but also challenging! Philippines do have a lot of good beaches though! :D

Yeah, life is challenging for sure but beautiful too like you.
