RE: One Of Our Own Moves Higher... (You Must Read This One)
This is an awesome comment @upclass. You are doing everything right. I agree that we all don't have to grow at the same pace and as long as we keep learning and improving and meeting new connections, then we will all get better together.
Take me for instance, I will get lots of upvotes on this posts but earn less than 0.50. That's because most of my followers are like me and have little to no power with our votes. But that's ok, my friends will grow up and I will grow with them. And those $0.01 or lower votes could one day be $1.01 votes. Its in our interests to help each other, and I'm so glad to hear you already know this.
Does this mean that you are going to be a founding member along with us? (I'm volunteering you if you let me!!!) ;)
I spend some time on Steemit. My goal is to learn the system inside and out.
In fact learning Steemit is also a part of a different project I am running that explores ways for people to make a little extra income online legitimately (along with a risk factor). So one of my goals is to lead new people to Steemit and at the same time teach them how to use the system in a way that is beneficial to all parties involved.
So I will already have the task of getting the knowledge and info together to assist new Steemians in establishing themselves outside of Steemit, applying that inside as well could work. I myself am still a newbie though.
With regards to me being a founding member. I just never want to so to "take credit" for something that rightfully belongs to someone else. I will definitely join the #newbieresteemday initiative. If you want to label me a founding member I will also gladly accept. But I do not say this lightly.
I take most things seriously so I would come up with a content strategy. A sort of top 10 newbie Resteemday blog posts with links background etc. Most likely in the areas of my interest. Some topics bore me...
One thing that I can definitely say though is that I finished setting up my recording studio as well. Video, sound, lighting. So I will start using Dtube (Along with youtube) as well and most likely keep an eye out over there for new users. Sometimes encouragement is well needed in the video world. I personally have a lot going for myself and I am nervous about doing video. So I will see what happens. Sometimes going outside your comfort zone is a good thing. Hoping to also make some great lifetime contacts in that regard.
I do apologize, my head usually runs places. In short, I am definitely available to assist wherever needed. You could also check out my website to see my motives on Steemit. My website should be linked on my profile. That might be good incentive. It also shows my goals and intentions on here.
You are a founding member. No more needed to say. I love your attitude and the way you think. That is the only requirement, to care about helping others. Everyone is different and brings a different skillset. And frankly like different things, but the one thing that binds us here is that we all want to help others.
So it took me awhile to sift through my messages, but I'm glad I found this. You should contact me on discord so we can also DM... if you are not on discord, go to this link and join.. it takes just a few seconds. https://discord.gg/RSD88W find me by adding me as a friend I am davemccoy#2479 ... then we can communicate there.
Btw, lots of our people have experience in life and are not only judged by their time on steemit.. Steemit is a great platform, and a useful tool to achieve success, but at the end of the day I want to help people (the people here and the people out there too).
I look forward to working with you! And I'm sure you will like the others too :)
Hey, No problem. I know sometimes life happens. We have other commitments as well. That and its weekend. I will add you on discord, I know I have discord. I have used it in the past.
I know this will be a good journey and I look forward to it. My last blog post was about something similar that you shared: "at the end of the day I want to help people".
Few things will ever compare to those moments where you are part of the solution so other's problems. Referring to major issues. But I still have a long way to go in that regard. Congrads on the $24 post. It might not be hundreds, But its not bad for a post I feel. Will send you a discord message tomorrow. Just came by now to check my replies as well.
I look forward to connecting with you on discord (and of course out here too)... We have some fun planned for this week so it should be a good one!
I added you on discord, I will keep an eye out on there as well, Good Luck.
