2018 has kept on with her habit of outdoing herself and surprising me on every front. When the year began, I had no idea I'd be traveling out of my country within the first 10 days. I had no idea I'd be talking to an audience about the powers of Steemit and how anybody can benefit from this revolutionary community. I had no idea I'd be typing this post on a brand-new MacBook pro!
Over the years, I've learnt to say what I want no matter how stupid it might sound to you listening and I'm glad I have kept on with that resolution. When you say something or ask for a thing, the worst response you can receive is a "no". With this at the back of your mind, you shouldn't shy away from saying out loud, the things you want for yourself.
At the hotel after the meet up in Sunyani, I said I wanted to own a MacBook; it was a dream and a very strong desire. I have a very strong conviction that all my dreams and desires will come through, with the only issue being time. I might not know how soon or how late but I know it'll all happen. So yes, I said I wanted a MacBook Pro. Somebody smiled and a few days later I'm back in Lagos with a new MacBook Pro in my hands.
Locating the store at the mall was quite a task as I couldn't really remember where it was. It was only until I used the Google Maps before I could find the store. Walking in, there were so many Apple products displayed
If you give your all to Steemit, it will give back to you and bring out the entrepreneur or philanthropist in you. All it needs is just time. This is what I believe and it has been working well for me. I got my MacBook courtesy of the amazing community we've gone on to build here on Steemit because without the people, all these wouldn't exist.
This is what originally prompted this post as I was supposed to write about a different thing. I've always heard the gists that this machine could be a fast beast but nothing beats actually experiencing it. I don't know if it's because it's its first use but this thing is way way silent. Needless to say I love it!
Well, let's just say that's a possibility; I won't be promising anything. Now that I've got a machine that can at least support and provide me with the necessary tools, I can begin to explore the video editing domain and play around in hopes of grabbing all I need to get started in the shortest possible time. now I wish I was in Ghana where I didn't have to worry about electricity but luckily for me, things are quite better in this part of town.
So I'm guessing it'll majorly be video editing and designing that will take place on this beauty. That's asides Steeming lol.
