Light heartedness please don't take it personal. These are based on my own journey but some of you might relate.
PHASE ONE
heard the word Steemit... Had no idea what it meant. Kinda intrigued by the idea but thought it must be bullshit cause what kind of awesomeness would it be otherwise.
Heard the word Cryptocurrencey ... "what the fuck is a cryptocurrencey" I thought to myself
PHASE TWO Research..
Research research research.
PHASE THREE
Sweet, I thought. All I have to do is write shit and make money. TADAH
PHASE FOUR
Realization... the "holy shit, I'm boring realization" I have nothing to write- I have a billion things going around my head all day, I write entire songs, but I can't think of something interesting enough for an upvote. I have good boobs but I don't really wanna share em on a blockchain.
Thats okay I thought.
As I started to realize what this could mean. For entire world in the way we move forward, i felt a bit better.
PHASE FIVE
Knowledge.. Learning something new. Like what a blockchain is, what cryptocurrency is. I thank all of the knowledgeable humans on this platform for sharing knowledge and binding the community together.
PHASE SIX
Giving back - no I'm not a Whale, I don't hold much value. But before I leave a community I've been a part of for the last 3 years I'd really love to make a positive difference & impact. There are over 5000 members in the New Zealand Playcentre Association and over 400 centres. If you're unsure what Playcentre is we are a not for profit charity that provides quality early childhood learning - COMPLETELY run by the parents, VOLUNTARILY.
PHASE SEVEN
HOW - How on earth am I going to convince 5000 people to join steemit so that we can all upvote each Centres fundraising plans (Can you imagine 5000 upvotes)?. This is my goal. I know I'm going to need some back up and a really good speech to take forward in the hopes of changing the way we fundraize forever. No more applying for grants and getting turned down. No more pushing sh*t uphill.
Current phase - My authentication pic which I have not shared yet.
