It is time to pause the journey that I take in steemit to think very carefully, all the things that I have come to do for this wonderful platform. Although perhaps she is the one who does a lot for us, we can not take away the merit we have for dedicating time, since it never recovers. In the same way Steemit is the perfect complement, at least it is for me. You dedicate time and reward you sooner or later. I thank you @mermaidvampire you made me meditate and laugh when I met with my steemian memories.
The contest will close, hurry up: Look What Steemit Made Me Do "A Contest"
"Write about the weird, strange, unusual, one-of-a-kind, life-changing things you've done for Steemit. It could be anything from how you spend your earnings, what you do for a post, how far you've gone to promote the platform, etc". - @mermaidvampire
Here we go:
The last days of December of the year 2017 I met Steemit, but it was in the month of January of this year when I joined the platform more completely. In these 4 magnificent months, I have had the opportunity to participate in many competitions, from the arts with painting or digital, to the music and video contest. The experiences have been incredible, the learning has been fast, and although I still have a lot to learn, I already know what the habits of a good Steemians are. Among them we can mention: Be original in each post, give credits to the authors of the images or texts that you use as support material, respond to your followers, vote and retest quality content, among other things.
The 5 most incredible things that happened to me in Steemit.
1. In my beginnings I participated a lot in art contest, draw every day. Once @ophelifu created a contest and I participated. It was easy, you had to draw sheep and then I decided to do it with the help of my 4 year old baby. After uploading the post, I closed my lapto and returned after a while. When I open steemit my post had a vote of @blocktrades I do not know how, or why, but blocktrades voted me miraculously. My post came to be in trend, and at the end of the 7 days I got around 55 SBD. That was my first great joy.
2. My second great joy was when I received the payment. I look forward to it, imagine that before I arrived I already knew where I was going to invest it. My mom needs urgent surgery and no family member had the financial resources to pay for the operation. A if they guess so that I use the money .. A if as you think my investment was nothing more and nothing less than in the life of my mother. That big vote I think was much more than that, maybe it was a miracle. Neither my mother could believe it, and then when she could understand everything, she ended up registering in Steemit. You can find your user if you wish: @artelis
3. My third great joy was participating in another contest, this time it was writing and it was sponsored by @dobartim As always I started writing, leaving all my feelings in each letter and @dobartim understood it that way, and wanted to reward my effort and dedication in the post. So that's when I won a contest for the first time and the prize was just $ 100 SBD, something not very credible, but totally true. I remember that I could not sleep that day hahaha
4. My fourth great joy came, when @cervantes the largest curator of the Hispanic community voted me a participation in one of their contests, after that payment I was able to buy a lapto more. In my house we currently have 2. Because we are enough steemians. All these are relatives who live with me, I also nominate them to participate in the contest: Mother: @artelis Sister: @gabrielaa Brother: @jesuscarrasquero Tia: @francismg Primo: @apoyolatino Prima: @zuleef. We are too many still, we share everything, so that nobody outside steemit.
5. The fifth joy is each of the moments lived with steemit, the truth is that my journey has been wonderful, if a new user is reading me at this time, I want to tell him not to give up for any reason. Steemit is part of this life, and it's exactly like her. You must strive in each post and give your best as you do while you are on track to your dreams, to all your goals. Steemit rewards you with time in the short or long term, just as it happens in our daily lives.
The 5 strangest or strangest things I've done for Steemit:
- Una vez me tocó promocionar steemit y no tenía idea de como hacerlo, asi que esa aventura fue bastante especial y rara porque nunca había escrito sobre algo así. Pero de tanto practicar lo logre y termine creando un buen relato. Decia algo asi:
"There is a place in this world that only the one who knows him enjoys his magic, where only the one who is attentive is nourished mentally. Where, with just reading, you can travel to thousands of places, visit any imaginary world of those writers without limits or borders, tattoo life in your brain. Where you can meet any amount of culture, landscapes, real people, humble, amazing and many wonders that perhaps at some point you missed. A place with ups and downs because it is part of our planet, a place where sharing your talents, experiences or knowledge, are like the bread of every day. A place with a culture that can be a lifestyle if you want it, a place that is closer to you than you imagine. A place that encompasses and unites the wisdom of many with the art of others, a free place, quite free. A place that is synonymous with any good act, any positive energy and everything that is intellectual and pleasant. A place called STEEMIT; a platform that is evolving with the passage of time but does not do it alone, it does it every time that ingenious people like you, share in the best way their knowledge, through writings, photographs, videos, drawings, art in general. STEEMIT is perhaps seen as the social network of the near or distant future, but its future depends on you, your actions and the use you give it to improve your life and that of others. Register, just use your email and phone number, wait for your private key to be sent and remember, from your first start of your session you will open the door of a world that expects a lot from you, to make it a better place. STEEMIT THE SOCIAL NETWORK OF THE FUTURE".
2. Recently for a pet contest I had to do a little crazy, I had to photograph my grandmother's pet with me hahaha. I have my pet is called Canela, but as you already know in my house we are many steemians so at the time of a contest we all do our best to participate and my brother @jesuscarrasquero was ahead of me and I took my pet to participate, another side @gabrielaa had some small turtles, my aunt @francismg to her puppy Jerry and I was left with nothing. Nobody resorts to the parrots Lola and Florentino because they are very restless and they like to bite when they touch them a lot hahaha. Then I was the one who had to take the risk and take some pictures that were perfect in the end. The strange thing about all this is that my brother after taking my cinnamon puppy and besides letting the Parrots bite me and the photo section lasted more than an hour he said: I will not participate there I leave you with cinnamon hahahaha. Very crazy @jesuscarrasquero
4. I remember that in the Easter of this year I decided to go and take other pictures to share with the whole community and I did so. It was a beautiful experience, the strange thing about all this was that I did not receive any kind of vote at the height of good photographs. That's why I keep saying that everything has its moment, I just hope that life, God, the universe and consensus conspire and give you what you deserve.
3. Something I never imagined doing was going out in my own neighborhood and capturing photographs to upload them, I never realized the wonders that surrounded me, I just had to look for another way of seeing things and steemit helped me a lot in that. For me it was totally strange to go out and take pictures since I'm not photogenic.
5. Something totally strange in me is to create memes, I never thought I would do one and less for a contest haha. Here I leave what I wanted to imply: "That is your face when there is live healing and the whale that votes, passes close to your post".
Extra: This is very rare for many people although it is not for me because I like to recycle. In this video I show how to reuse the sheets of paper. All of them had printed information about the works of the university, but I took them and started to draw up to twice if necessary or if the drawings came in.
In what do I spend my earnings?
First of all in food for my home haha. It is the most important thing. Then I invest in other cryptocurrencies such as BTC, sack to walk the smallest, my best expense has been the operation already mentioned. But I already have new goals such as buying a good quality camera, or a microphone to record my songs better.
I have revealed to you almost all of my most outstanding experiences, and I fail to note that I became a more complete human being. I learned to design at a good level, I can write without stopping and maybe it is reflected in this post, I also learned to draw better, not to be afraid of many things, I learned to write with better spelling my poems and sing without detouring my songs rap. The truth Steemit has been a change of life completely, now if I feel that I live the life and that I enjoy every moment. I said it, I return it to decri and I will always keep it: "Steemit The Social Network Of The Future".
