My Steemit Journey Sharing: One year ago...

Merdeka! Happy Independence Day Malaysia! One year ago, Team Malaysia just formed and with not many members. @myach started a Merdeka challenge. And a few of us joined. Paiseh... Because of my Dory's memory... I don't remember who participated together... And I don't really remember what's the challenge is about. But I remember I went to Muzium Negara twice just to get my challenge post done. I went twice because I didn't do it right the first time. Long story short, I was so so so lucky that I won! And that's one year ago... What did I won myself? 1000SP delegation!!!

WHAT!? Yes... 1000SP was delegated to me... But I was so blur back then... I didn't fully utilized this gift!!! If I got this now, I would have done so much more better... My VP won't stay at 100%... Many more can benefit... If I can go back in time, I would have done this...

So what did I learn from this? Read and learn the basics of Steemit. At least know what is SP, VP, voting trail, etc. There's many many awesome guides written by awesome Steemian. I have to confess that I didn't really read any guides back then. So I really wasted a great opportunity to grow my own SP and also help others to grow... Thinking back I would really wanna give myself a big slap and kick... 😑🙈

Here's one really comprehensive guide by @ethandsmith from @thesteemengine.

Introduction, Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7
