The person who introduced me to Steemit is @ogochukwu. I had joined a literary club in school and one day in its whatsapp group @ogochukwu came there telling us about steemit. He presented it well succinctly and even gave us a link to his wallet. I was inspired. I immediately joined.
As time went by I know I would have gotten faced by some discouragement and depression because things weren't so smooth but @ogochukwu's post and mentorship sessions were always there to inspire me to keep on steeming. I really owe a lot to this bro.
You should check out @ogochukwu's posts, he's a great inspiration, and his words of advice are powerfully effective. All his posts can be found in this tag: #blockchain-blogger
He also runs a mentorship project called the Blue Waves project. Check out @bluewaves.
