Good morning everyone and happy New Year. I hope that 2018 is exciting and prosperous for everyone.
My name is Chris. I am an Executive for a Community College in KS and I spend my days in front of a computer screen. I am responsible for reporting the colleges data to state and federal agencies. It not the most exciting job in the world, but I love the people I work with.
Today is my first day back to work since December 21st. It was a nice break and I spent a great deal of it reading on Steemit and trying to get a handle of how it all works. I am a Reddit user and have been for years. As I have stated in the past, it is not what it used to be and I want to be involved in a community that has a focus. I feel there is a lot to offer with Steemit and I want to make a go at it.
So a bit more about myself. I am doctoral candidate and am finishing my research for my dissertation and should be done in the next couple months. My dissertation is on Conflict Management between teachers in a high school setting. My Doctoral degree is in Educational Leadership. I hope I can have some amazing discussion with steemit users in the future about some of these topics.
I am also a cryptocurrency follower. I say follower because I focused for too long on other things and have missed the train for so many great coins and tokens. I started to mine Bitcoin back in 2011 or so, but I cannot find the wallet file. I don’t think I had much, but with current prices a little can still be a lot.
I have recently started using bitconnect and see some promise with it. I have another article in my blog about it if you are interested. Would love it if you joined and we could start a team. I know there are those that call it a Ponzi scheme, but they have said that about everything crypto at some point. This guys are making a ton of money and what they pay out is crumbs compared to what they are making. I am okay with that.
So 2018 is kind of a rebuilding year for me. The last year has been rough. I lost my dad fairly suddenly and work has been brutal.
Here are the things I plan to accomplish this year:
• Lose weight. I hate New Year’s resolutions but it is what it is. I am using Keto for diet and DDP Yoga for exercise.
• Finish Doctorate. This will be done by May hopefully much sooner.
• Build a Crypto portfolio. I have some coins that I have bought and Mined. I am looking at some ICO offerings as well.
• Take my Merch by Amazon sales to a new level. This Christmas season was not great due to the throttling and other issues. I really hope that next year is better. It’s a residual income that I can use for investing in coins. (What would you suggest)
• Plan a real vacation. I have not had a real vacation in over ten years. We may take a cruise, but it depends on timing.
• Get to know Steemit better and start to contribute in areas of interest on a regular basis.
I know I am missing some things, but I thought that getting these out there might help to keep me motivated.
Well I hope you have a great day. I hope that I can make some friends and learn from everyone.
Chris
