Hey Erbody!
So I heard about Steemit today from a friend. I was interested because I have discovered that I like to write. I struggled for years to find my "voice" as it were, as I thought I had nothing to write about. All of a sudden my mind became clear and started writing.
I have not published anything yet, so this will be my debut into the world of writing. I started writing an article while bored in a meeting at work - I'm a UX designer by profession. The title just popped into my head, while listening to some of the designers talk about their processes and show us really boring presentations. I mean c'mon designers, show me something cool - not boring 'ol Keynote presentations showing us how busy you were by creating a new document and process diagram!!
Anyways, I digress. The title that popped into my head was, "The Psychology of Design". Sounds cool, right?
Yeah, so I used Google Keep on my phone to start writing down my initial thoughts. Although what I wrote was not long, the words just seemed to flow. This is something I have never experienced before. It felt awesome. I'll share my thoughts in a series of articles at a later stage.
I have a few things that I have always been quite passionate about but never really articulated what those were. I think writing about it might help me clarify what those things really are, and what it means to be multi-passionate...if that is even a thing. 🤔
I am looking forward to see how this Steemit thing all works out.
Cheers!

Welcome to Steem @enkulu I have upvoted and sent you a tip
Thanks ! Still getting my Steemlegs.
Welcome to steem! I upvoted and followed you- I'm interested in your thoughts on design. I write about travel and will be posting about my recent trip to Italy and France if you would like to follow me @sunravelme
Hi @sunravelme. Thanks, I will be posting an article soon about design. Looking forward to seeing your posts. LOL. How do you upvote someone? #noob
Welcome, @enkulu, I hope you enjoy it here!
I’ll follow you if you’ll follow me; that being said, following is overplayed. Really, don’t you want to follow someone who shares your interests, rather than getting feeds which matter nothing to you.
Here’s what I do, I decided to just follow pretty much anyone; then I don’t offend anyone. Rather than read off my feed, I just select the topics I want and go from there.
One of my favorite topics is the Introducingyourself; here we are all equally vulnerable before being re-shapped by the Steemit world. Steemit is more than blogging, it is preview of a future which is already upon us.
If you want to check out some faucets, check my posts; BEWARE:
IF IT IS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN IT’S NOT TRUE!

Done! :) Still figuring out the crypto currency stuff... can you hear the whooshing sound as it goes over my head?
🙃
Watch out for those HYIP funds. I lost about $1000 USD to BitcoinsBrain. To make it worse, they had stopped paying me for two weeks before I realized that I had been scammed.
I pulled about $40. USD out of FexFund yesterday morning. Much to my chagrin, FexFund closed forever yesterday, taking unknown millions with them.
It is simple enough to get a usb stick, use it for your digital wallet, only insert it when you are going to use it. It will need to sync before each use, that's just how using the block chain is. Then you will have pretty decent security.
Stay FAR AWAY from any digital gambling, it is all rigged, all of it; each and every one, all of them, period.
Take care,
carltong
I hope I remember that. I don't really know what you are talking about, but hopefully, I can avoid anything dodgy! 😅

It's been interesting so far... and I still not really getting the #minnowsupport stuff and bots... and what is the purpose of resteeming because I see a lot of people resteeming posts but not a lot of their own stuff. It is so confusing!
