The Thoughts & Feelings about this past weekend Steem Creators Conference. People told me it was one of their best experiences. Not just for conferences but life experiences. It is incredibly flattering. Want to thank all the people who made this all happen. Excuse me if I miss anyone. Going on average of 5 hours sleep a night last 10 days.

Joined Steem about 6 months ago. On January 3rd, 2018 I put up my first video and got support from DTube. $32 Steem. Very cool. I told 2 of my friends lets invite people to Las Vegas who are having success on Steem. Because we don't know what we are doing & let's steal their ideas. hahaha Just kidding. I fell in Love with Steem and wanted to help others learn & grow with Steem.

Want to give a couple of shout outs to a few people. They may not know it but they impacted my life for the better. Steem has change my life. I can not really express myself. I don't have the words. Steem has changed me in mind, body, heart, and my soul for the better.

@ned. The CEO of Steemit. For providing such an amazing platform. I flew to Austin from Las Vegas for a meetup & Ned showed up. He shared with us the future of Steemit & Steem. Afterwards we spoke w/ each other. He was so gracious, kind, and generous w/ his time. We had on going communication afterwards. Thank you @ned. You have helped me out.

@exyle Literally I know daily or semi-daily you are able to spread the word about Steem. You share with us what is going on in the Steem universe. But not only that you source all your information. Tell us where to find and learn more about the subject matter. Thank you for sharing your great observations, insight & understand of topics relating to Steem.

@roelandp He is the O.G. "the original gangster" He envisioned SteemFest. Excuted SteemFest & SteemFest2. Everyone who was there said it was AWESOME!!! He and his team has set the GOLD, Platinum, 5 Star Standard which conferences, meetups, & meetings for Steem are held to for Steem. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You are an inspiration to all of us. Someday I hope to share a beer with you.

Like to recognize 2 of my early supporters of me. From the very beginning. They continue to support me.

Thank you to @kpine. You ROCK!!! You jumped on my content. You have help me but also so many creators. Thank you very much. Love to have anyone of you on for a 1 on 1 interview. Message me at [email protected] anytime.

Let's talk about the conference. We had no expectations for the conference. We are not professionals by any means. This is not our day job. 3 Key note speakers: Quinn, Joe, & Adam.

@quinneaker WOW now here is a dreamer, doer, and revolutionary! If our goal is to live the most awesome live possible & create a better world, then Quinn's proven experience founding, developing, and living in community may be one of the most valuable perspectives we have on STEEM. His inspiring keynote focused on SOLUTIONS & the power of blockchain technology.

joe.jpg

@joeparys Is the consummate professional. Joe got on a plane a mere hours been completely admissible for him to miss the conference altogether. This man is committed to his word and to being an educator. He smashed the stage.

adam.jpg

@AdamKokesh Adam was open, honest, and extremely respectful to everyone. Grateful for the time he gave us. Shout out to his celebrity dog Blue. He is considered a radical but after hearing him speak, his ideas didn't seem that radical. He professes love, peace, and understanding. Never going to war for selfish interests and using our countries wealth to help every living citizen, not just corporations and the wealthiest 1%. Doesn't sound that radical to me at all.

All the speakers, presenters, and panels were awesome. Want to recognize 3 in particular.

@scottshots He shared with us his knowledge of photography and he gave a workshop outside. Loved it.

The people came from all over the U.S.A. Philly, San Francisco, San Diego, L.A. New Hampshire, to name a few. One person came from Mexico City. Thank you. Thank you. And, they all came just to hang out with us, we don't know what the expectations was, but, I can't say enough about how I feel right now.

@thundercurator Jacob and Angela what can I say really. Behind the scenes and on stage they handled their business. Jacob also ran the wildly successful "Pitch Party". Love you to 2 the Sun and Back.

@thehoneys Amy & Jamie They were there in the beginning. I never asked the voluneteered to run the show. Jamie the most most MC ever. Puns were awful but nothing is perfect. He is one of good ones. Amy was conference project manager. I trust no one more to get the job done. Thank you.

THE TEAM

Greetings, steemcafe

Your name is funny. Here in my country (Brazil) "cafe" means coffee hehe.

I'm glad you enjoyed this meeting with the founders of steemit. I think it must have been an opportunity for a lot of learning and excellent exchanges of experience. I wish I was in it.

I think the founders could write or make a video about some meeting showing how the idea of ​​steemit came about and who these people are if they want, of course.

I would like to be part of this team, but here from afar (another country) I can not help much.

I hope steemit will always continue on this path and will never end, because it has changed my life a lot. It added knowledge, friends, exchanges of experiences and still a little money.

Thank you and good night!

Were are you? @julisavio My point is we can start up a steem movement were ever we are it doesnt matter how far. I already started a steem meet up in africa.

i am at brasil!!!

i hope @steemcreators will succeed, because it can help the users to reach out to the most people, and this will benefit especially to the minnows. Thanks for bringing this meet-up post, i've never thought this people are great in real life and helping steemit to promote and get more users to come in. :)

Awesome post man,
Great to meet you and thanks for all your doing for the Steem Community in such short time!

I see a fantastic Steem Powered future of success for you and excited about our future collaborations!

I am uploading a video we did in the studio right now first of many to come soon!

Great post!

Nice .. Really, this is inspiring
Great post from you
Thanks for sharing

People are creators. But I doubt that many realize this. We are not meant to go out into the world and find flawless things, we are not meant to sit down and have flawless things fall into our laps. But we are creators. We can create a beautiful thing out of what we have. The problem with idealistic people is that they see themselves as receivers instead of creators, they end up hunting for the flaw in everything in order to measure it up to their ideals. Now, when you see yourself as a creator, you can look at a chunk of marble and see the angel within it. Then you carve until you have set that angel free

It is certainly time for people to stop using fakebook and get on steemit.

Congrats! STEEM has the potential to change the world more than any other cryptocurrency!!

seems like you threw a helluva event! great! i'm sorry i missed out. Lets do that beer somewhere this year then! cheers! enjoy a well deserved rest!

@roelandp Thank you. I agree let's do a beer. I will bring some artisan whiskey from my hometown. Have a wonderful day. Look forward to meeting you & your team.....You are right I am super tired. hahaha

I have had my own ex wife tell me i was delusinal thinking this was a good use of my time. Now am able to show her she was wrong. revenge is so sweet.
