Woke up at 3:00am and preparing myself to the airport. Looking at my son still tucked with his favorite soft toy, doggie, makes me proud of what I am doing today.
Our trip to KL is not an ordinary trip. It is not business or leisure purpose. It is for our Team Malaysia 1st Gathering. It means that we’re going to meet our Steemit family that we have never seen before! The feelings like when you’ve got separated from birth and this is the first time that you will seeing each other, literally. Haha 😆
I am so excited and yet so nervous thinking how’s the crowd would be. What am I going to say? What am I supposed to do? What happened if suddenly a conversation becomes awkward? Krik,krik,krik…
I tried to brush away the unnecessary thought and let’s just follow the flow.
Arrived at KLIA with
And look who's here picking us up 😋
We went to had some breakfast, chatted and finally hit the road. Soon enough, we reached to the meetup venue, Big Hug owned by our fellow steemian . We were the earliest steemians arrived and while waiting, we had more chit chatting (still feels unsettled). Slowly the crowds getting bigger. And without realizing it, the place covered with tons of amazing, talented people.
Surprisingly, I did well...I guess. I hoped I didn’t scared ,
and
away 😂
It was fun talking with these talented ladies. All of them are doing the steem-cartoon(check out their profiles to see what they actually do!). Thank you ladies. You guys are amazing. Keep Team Malaysia proud! Malaysia Boleh!
Here’s giving a speech. And…ehem, he mentioned that something is BIG going to happen in September this year. 😉
Towards the end, me, and
had a one to one talk with
about our struggle finding our niche to write a post. He advice us so many thing but one particularly advise that he told us and I quote “steemit is not supposed to give you stress,it supposed to give you fun”. Thank you for the valuable advise
. I'd really appreciate it.
There are tons of great ideas from these great people. I’ll have to admit, to be in that place of where they are today seems reachable although it’s going to take loooong way to get there. It is possible. When there’s a will, there’s a way. 😁
So,why I’ve feel blessed today?
This is the reason why.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET THE CHANCE TO MEET THESE AWESOME PEOPLE?
What Is It All About?
Basically, it was a familiarization session with everybody. For me, it is important knowing your team members and gets to know their personalities and build a sense of trust and community within us. Having an idea what motivates them to write gives me an admiration in a powerfully irresistible way.
As John Heywood said, “nothing is impossible to a willing heart”.
So, are you willing to step outside your comfort zone? I’ll let you decide. 😊
At the meantime, please enjoy few photos that I took from the event.
