This is my first post to the #steemitblockchain. Very proud to finally be a part of this space, with all that entails. I have been here for about a week at this point and have already met and held some interesting dialogues, some from the other side of the globe. A very cool concept for an American formerly caught up in the seclusionist mentality.
I'll start off simple: I'm a 26 year old, devoted husband, father, and friend to a wide variety and ever-increasingly diverse community of relationships. My current full-time employment is building/painting tractor trucks. Currently seeking and researching side hustle opportunities to transition to full scale self employment. Work-in-progress.
I find that the more I am able to learn from others, the more helpful I am able to be. Not to mention the added benefit of realizing how little I know and allowing that to stimulate and drive growth and personal development.
The picture attached is a picture I took on my smartphone of a local lake here in North Texas. I'm no photographer, nor do I really have any desire to be one. But I certainly can appreciate beauty when I see it. And that's exactly what I've done with #steemit. The more I read, research, and learn about it the more I see the potential and beauty of it.
I'll outline a few of my favorite topics so no one wastes their time here, as these will likely be my main focuses. At least in the beginning. Forewarning and full disclosure: I'm not an expert in any of these things, just an enthusiast and student. Thanks for your shared wisdom, support, and general camaraderie Steemians! In no particular order:ö
