Five marvelous adjustments made by steemit in my life as a student

Firstly, I will like to start by thanking Hive account@surpassinggoogle for giving me the opportunity to write on the adjustment steemit have made on my life so far.
On November 7, 2017, I was lucky to create my steemit account, this was after a webinar done by the Hive account@euronation community, steemit really changed me and made me earn from the skill I learned early 2017. May,2017 was the month I started loving and engaging in article writing this was after a training I attended online initiated and facilitated by a prolific author, teacher and writer who I just invited to steemit Hive account@kazrem. He motivated me to write even at times I don’t want to. Further to this, in July 2017, I participated in the 30 days writing challenge which triggered me to write a book in September 2017. However despite writing my book in September, 2017 I wasn’t able to publish the book due to lack of funds.

Later I joined many writing groups on whatsapp and facebook but however wasn’t able to raise funds with my writing skills only to be encouraged to write, however there is one fact in life no matter how one has passion for something, one will always feel discouraged if one doesn’t get incentives or benefits from such things or skills. I almost got discouraged but then luckily for me I found the Hive account@euronation community, here I heard the name steemit. The community conducted a webinar which I considered too be a life changing one. Since I have joined the following are the adjustments made so far:

1. Security: steemit helped me immensely in terms of financial security.

As a student for the past few days that I have joined the community, I don’t disturb my parents for funds, especially because things aren't easy. Since I have joined, I can easily get anything related to my academics even if it's emergently.

These days, I don’t stress to get textbooks or any stationary I need. All can easily be gotten due to the fact that I earn from sharing my ideas and knowledge. What an amazing community is steemit? Having funds at school largely determines one’s progress at school. A student life is always filled with unexpected contingencies.

2. It has made me a good planner
A quote goes thus

"By failing to plan, one is planning to fail".

I now successfully plan my day, writing and posting articles successfully as well as academical life. It increased my doggedness.

3. It made me a researcher: steemit has really helped me to become an avid reader and researcher this is due to the fact that the community doesn’t encourage plagiarism instead it supports and encourage one to research, post and reference works cited. I must say that it made me feel free to share knowledge about my course which is soil science. I can now say I am versatile and can do many things, in this community, I have read many value adding posts.

4. It made me use resources wisely: initially I wasted most of my time chatting with my friends and wasting data subscription on various social platforms with data that has been bought with hard earned money. One fact is that time is very precious of which most people waste today, however, steemit made me use time efficiently and earn at the same time.

The laptop and phone my roommates use to watch movies and waste time is the same thing I used to save my time, earn and even gain knowledge.

5. Happiness : With all that has been said, having enough funds in my account as made me lead a happy and smart academic life.

Last but not least steemit has shown me the value of supporting others and helping others, it has shown me that to lead a happy life you need to help those that are behind and care about them

Today marks my 59th day on the steemit community and my reputation is 48 this is due to support and motivation of some great group of people who always encourage people to get into action and do their best Hive account@eurogee, Hive account@smyle,Hive account@edith4angelseu,Hive account@sweetestglo-eu,Hive account@bob-elr, Hive account@dray91eu, Hive account@drigweeu, Hive account@jeaniepearl, Hive account@adoore-eu of the Hive account@euronation community, I must say a big thank you for everything.

Without these people, I wonder how I will even know about the steemit community.

Once again, my gratitude goes to Hive account@surpassinggoogle for this opportunity, I also appreciate the entire member of the Hive account@euronation community for their regular support.
