I messed Up!
Hey Guys I wanna let you know that I made a mistake I didn’t go out there and find more about Steemit. I just woke up one day and started writing articles for steem, mainly so because cryptocurrencies are big right now and on dates I can say that I earn money in Bitcoin and the girl would be like “that must be nice”. Meaning she thinks i’m rich because when she is online she sees supposed bitcoin millionaires everywhere. Anyways I am going off track and this article is not about that.
I forgot to post a Steemit first post to introduce myself and that first post is a goldmine for some people and for some others it pays for a decent lunch at a 5 star restaurant. I didn’t know then what I now know and I think this new knowledge I gathered will make me successful in building relationships here on Steemit and ultimately make money. Steemit is about community, I didn’t get this and trust me guys I will try upvoting, commenting, and resteeming wherever I can from now on.
Okay now that I got that off my chest I will introduce myself in this post below:
Here I am when I was a kid
Here I am Now
Sorry If they were a little blurry my camera is kinda bad. LOL :)
My name is Brian Vukeya and I am a 25yr old guy from South Africa, the motherland. I grew up in Gauteng in a city called Pretoria. It was nice growing up there I was the naughtiest kid on the entire street my home was a corner house. I won’t lie to you just because you can’t validate anything so I never went to college but I did finish my high school diploma. I self taught myself programming and became a network technician and worked at various companies I don’t wanna mention for privacy reasons. I have been doing that ever since and dabbled in some affiliate marketing and e-commerce, also I have added Steemit as one of my hustles.
In my spare time I practise Krav Maga so that I can be a good kravist. I also read tons of books that help out in life like Rich Dad Poor Dad, think and grow rich etc. etc. The best way to spend my time however is when I go surfing in Durban when I am on vacation and when I paint potraits of the important people in my life. I just like self employment because it frees up your time and you can do whatever you wanna do on your own terms I could write this post on a beach while listening to sea gulls and drinking some good whisky.
If I kept going it would mean I would have to write an entire bible on my life. So there it is guys me being hella transparent with all of you and I hope we can all help each other by upvoting, resteeming and commenting. Thanks you so much for reading this and if you think I was transparent and that we could build a community together you can Upvote this if you want to.

It's a nice story. How long have you been here on steemit exactly? And do you have any family? I've not been here too long myself. But I love it. So many interesting people. And yes it's very important to upvote and comment and meet new people and build relationships. It's what I help people do here or at least try. You should stop by my site sometime. It's really geared toward newer people. I have what I call 60-second games you can play. There's lots of interesting people there and if you have any questions there's normally someone that can help. In any case I like your story. Baddest kid on the street and you lived on the corner. That's pretty funny. In any case I hope you have a great day. And I hope you stop by my place. Sending you all of my love until we meet again. May our creator bless you and yours.
