My first Steemit post ! Would you read my story to discover how i randomly came across Steemit and why i decided to give it a try ?

in #introduceyourself5 years ago (edited)

Hi Steemians , My name is Steven Chin or NEENZ ! I have spent most of my adult life learning about how the world works and how people in different places handles similar problems in different ways , And how the internet and social media allows people all over the world from all walks of life to instantly connect with each other or even learn a new skill and also get access to new content. And as the great Bill Gates once said Content is King ! With Steemit being such a great social platform, I figured why not take the opportunity to share my experiences and knowledge with all of you !

It has been a long way for me where i had to learn most things the hard way so i always extrapolate the lessons from each experiences and also learn from other people mistake. My Mom has always been there for me growing up and my father never play a major role in my life, And that quickly gives me a insight of the disadvantages and challenges kids around the world faces on a daily basis. I've worked in many fields in the past such as delivery services, Forklift operator and even as a small investor, But I have found out that i can work with kids to make an impact on their lives by coaching and guiding them in the right and correct way especially kids with parental issues and bad behavior problems. So currently for the pass 14 years i have been working with younger youth in order to keep them out of trouble and stair them on the right path so they can end up doing something productive with their lives. One of my favorite things about my job is educating parents about what they're might be doing wrong and how to change or fix the problem ! Working with troubled kids can be a real task or even a headache for most people and i understand that as well, but it being one of my passion doesn't mean i definitely have all the answers to be honest and i don't think anyone ever will especially in a age where children are changing as fast as the world is changing.

I have never ran or operate a internet business before for my work was always i would say more straight forward and hands on but i personally think the internet is a great way to go for sure especially if you living in a third world or
under develop country. I have been learning network marketing for little over a year now, so im not a person who has a big online presents using alot of social platform like twitter and instagram. I was watching a youtube video by Andy Hafell when i accidentally came across the Steemit Decentralized social media platform which pays in Cryptocurrency which just sounds Awesome to be earning while posting your content.
