My journey on steemit started back in July 2016, i had been in bitcoin for a few months and was learning about other cryptos. This was right after ethereum had their Hardfork after the DOA debacle... I FOMO’ed into steem, putting in around 1.8 bitcoins in at the all time high in satoshis... i think I got like 400 steem.... for 1.8 bitcoin... imagine that... well at the time steem inflation was 100% the initial supply so pretty much my 400 steem turned into 750ish before steem changed their inflation model....
I got distracted by life and other coins like monero then dash before 2017 came upon us.... I can’t believe I did not stock up on steem around $0.08 march 2017... but a year later steem was sitting over $3 per steem...
Imagine earning a higher income than people working minimum wage....
I saw this potential and decided that one of my financial goals would be to get thousands and thousands of steem power so that one day it’ll net me some pretty good residual income and hopefully I gain a following and this and that...
Instead the steem price plummeted and with it so did my motivation to post...
I eventually just used steemit to post pictures of my meals so I can keep track of what I’m eating as i lose weight and also earn a little something along the way..
Now with #newsteem i am getting attacked (rightfully so) for my oldsteem self vote lazy behaviour.
So recently I decided to do a change
-I am now going to exercise every single day
-I lost my job so I will either find a way to work for myself or find a position I am passionate about that pays a lot
- I will post real posts on steemit and engage like never before
my biggest problem, my kryptonite, is consistency ... I do AMAZING for a few days then 📉📉📉
Everyday I am finding new ways to motivate myself, steem price going up would be a nice confidence boaster 😍
#theycallmedan I am tagging you as a witness in case I get downvoted by these bots that are now set on auto downvote once any of my rewards get to 12 hours left to payout... a witness to see this is not some random one word post meant for self voting.... I won’t even vote for this post, I am looking to curate only with my votes
