Achievement 1 - Task: Verification Through Introduction by @simplify

Hello dear Steemians! I'm excited to be a part of the community again after a long break. I was an active user in this platform about three years ago and I'm ready to start a new adventure here.

My name is Ümit Güngör. I'm from Turkey. I'm a normal person like you at the age of 33 (right, i'm a little old :D). Everyone says that I am generally a positive and emotional person. I don't like being emotional very much :D

I wanted to make this "photo verification" part a little fun for myself. It took me about 2 hours to take this photo. About an hour for drawing and an hour for painting. It was a little tiring, but also a good memory for me as well.

I studied physics at university. But I left it just before I graduated. Because, I realized that I did not want to pursue a career in this field. My entrepreneurial spirit was triggering me to do different things. I decided to follow my dreams. This may be my first big mistake in my life, and it was not the last :D I will return to this topic later. By the way, I'm an entrepreneur, a freelancer, a cryptotrader and also a musician.

Frankly, my education life was extremely fun. Although physics is very boring for me, the activities I participated in the university added a lot to my life. I joined the theater club and had amazing experiences there.
I took part in many theater plays. Here are some nice shots from these beautiful days.

I have been playing acoustic guitar for about 13 years. Playing an instrument improves you in many ways. But you need to be a little patient during the learning phase. When you work hard to overcome certain challenges, life rewards you. Mine was like that. It's a picture from one of my concerts.

I met cryptocurrencies in 2017. By this time, I have tried many things you can think of like mining, trading, etc. I can say that I am experienced in this regard. I've had many good and bad experiences. Joining Steemit was a good one.

Let's talk about my mistakes again. Because my mistakes are what makes me who I am right now. After I left college, I walked away from everything I didn't like to do. I just focused on what I wanted to do. I kept making mistakes while doing the things I love. But this is not a big deal. The point is that when you make a mistake while doing something you don't like, it causes you to give up. Even if you make a mistake while doing something you love, you never give up and do your best to fix it. I was interested in translation, writing, computers, technology and web development.
I improved myself on this topics for years. At the end of the day, they turned into my business. I think you just need to know this much for now.

I am a person who loves to touch people's lives. That's why I think I will share my knowledge and experience that I think can benefit people and the community. I believe, we can provide value to each other.

So why did my introduction turn into a motivational speech? I don't know.
I guess because of my emotionality. Sorry for that, I hate it :D

I hope you enjoyed my journey. Feel free to share your thoughts with me.

Don’t forget to smile!
Best regards, Ümit.
