RE: My Story: Abridged (First Post)
WOW - this is quite an impressive introduction.
You're telling the world a lot about yourself. But as it's always here on steemit the world is not listening, yet.
One first has to build up a network of followers who are interested in what you have to say. This is not easy and many give up - just too early. Many even give up when they are exactly at the turning point when it really gets fun here.
I hope you will not!!!
I just pressed the follow button because I got the impression you have a lot to tell here.
If you have any questions, let me know. No - I really don't know all about steemit. But I'm always willing to help.
E.g.: do you know Discord? Actually, it has nothing to do with the steemit blockchain. But there are many Discord channels of steemians to help each other. For example https://discord.gg/ahqmjRA. A channel of MSP (Minnow Support Project) to help new steemians. They have a radio station on that server but also on their website.
Why am I writing all this?
Because I read your posts and I hope you will stay here and share more. Knowing the beginning is hard I hope you will get through it and enjoy after posting a lot and being not recognized.
That's what we all went through :)
But I'm sure you'll get there!!!
Steem on @neabponch!
I appreciate that, and yes I'm committing several hours a day to try to interact with 'steemians' as well as create original content. I tell myself not to be discouraged and to forge onward because I am the piece to someone else's puzzle and they are a piece in mine.
To come to some of these realizations I formerly severed ties with society and social media, but realized I don't need to shelter myself from human contact to be at peace. Steemit seems like the perfect opportunity to reconnect and also share some of my experiences.
Yes, I used discord and joined that group you suggested. Thanks again!
Cool, I'll see you around !!!
