#philippines I'M STEEMING HOT! $100 on my 2nd week! And efforts to introduce Steemit to local Filipino HS students.

So I've turned 2 weeks just a few days ago and it was astonishing! Seeing the accumulation of my rewards that I made just for the 2nd week alone was very exciting for me. It is true that "through hard work, everything is possible"!

I've joined steemit with the idea of sharing my opinions and beliefs to people. Tackling about my disability, hobbies, work and personal life. Well, along with a bit of optimism that I would earn from it, hahaha. My first few days were kinda disappointing as little to none are reading my contents which then turned to a slump. But I tried again, seeking a different audience that my friend told me and by interacting to other people's post. Everything went well! I received my first huge upvote from my tagalized version of my introductory post and everything else that followed was pretty much amazing! I got nonstop votes for the last 7 posts that I made in which a single post would average for about $15 worth of steem power and SBD. My reputation jumped from 28 to 49(by the time of this writing). And the most important thing, the people that I have inspired through my post and the people who motivated me in their comments.

The heaps of encouragements and warm welcomes were heart warming. Sorry if I could'nt include everyone else, there were too many... 😥 and along with this post, I would like to thank the awesome people that were part of my amazing week!

Everything wouldn't be possible if it wouldn't be for these guys, these people should be credited for my growth. @ninjace for inviting me here, @surpassinggoogle for the unrelenting support to my posts (please do follow him, he's been a tremendous asset at promoting growth, specially for the Philippine community), @libertyteeth for the very meaningful comments and interactions through my posts, for the Filipino steemit communities @teamphilippines and @steemph and lastly for the crazy bots of PAL that @aggroed started which helped me in so much way for my posts to be seen by readers, and his tip about spending time on reading people's posts and commenting meaningful comments that helped me gain good followers.

[EDIT!] And btw! Another moment to celebrate! I have posted about the awesomeness of #steemgigs a few days ago as well as posting my very first gig and yeah! I was hired! I will be making @flauwy an animated video intro for his Daily Steemit Show called "Steemy". And also got my very first feature from him as well! You can check the video here which tackles about what steemgig is and what it offers. @flauwy makes daily vlogs that are very informational.

In return for my abundant growth and to further help on promoting #steemit here in the #philippines , I've been talking to some local High School students here in our town, they were pretty optimistic about it as I shared the greatness of steemit. One of their subjects in school is "Empowering Technology" which in my opinion matches well with the concept of steemit, a "technology that empowers". And as students born from poverty, I believe that steemit would be a good medium to help them. I was also suggesting to them to have a talk or seminar about it on their school and that I would be willing, with the help of other Filipino steemians to share about steemit. Nothing has been finalized yet, but I'm pretty positive about it.

Thats it for now! I hope this post can inspire the readers as I have been inspired by others. Just keep on working hard and together lets grow.
