The difference? Steemit!
I was going to write an epic anniversary post today and I had began working on it but things didn’t work out as planned. Right now, I don’t even know what to write about. One thing I feel right now is that instead of listing the milestones I’ve crossed here (as I planned to), I’d just take this day as enough motivation to keep pushing!
Thinking back to the fact that a week ago, I had no idea I’d be out of the country and today I’m in Ghana with some of the best people, meeting new amazing ones, it does nothing but motivate me to put in more.
I really wish when the story of Steemit will begin to be told by the marketing team, all these real life stories of humans being touched and changed by this revolutionary platform won’t be relegated to the backseat in favor of some software jargon.
The Steemit Meetup In Ghana
On Saturday, we met with awesome people, eager and ready to learn to navigate the Steem Republic in the best possible way. I was giving an opportunity to speak to these people and I felt totally at home. It’s certainly a cute feeling when you step out to talk about your story and tell people they can one day be like you.
I made sure to emphasize, like I always do, the importance of quality over quantity. It was strange looking at the audience and finding them listening with full attention. I felt like I had a mission; a message to pass across and I hope I was able to do that.
Ghana doesn’t have the electricity issues we have in Nigeria and if we can do what we have been able to do so far, I expect no less from the Ghana community.
I appreciate the growth I’ve witnessed since day one; from the introductory post that earned $0.04 to this point. It still feels like a dream but one I’m very active in.
