Great post Randy and very motivating. After speaking with @jankasparec I decided to reach for the stars and work towards my dream of being a stone sculptor in Bali. I currently work in a very small town as a real estate agent working very long hours just to survive. Although I only joined Steemit a couple of weeks ago I’ve decided that it’s probably the best avenue for realising my dreams. My wife is not someone to take risks so I need to get an income going before I move to Bali and develop my stone sculpting business. I’m trying my best to make Steemit Work but as it’s early days it may take a while but I’m the kind of person who self learns if there’s something I want to know how to do so I’m sure I’ll get there and be a whale some day so I can get that residual income going which will give my wife the impetus to agree to shift to Bali. I found speaking to @jankasparec very motivating also and it’s great to have people in this community like him and yourself who give people great free advice. I have plenty of life experience being self employed in different ventures but have not managed to get onto something with good potential but at least I have tried and will always keep trying until I get there. I was off work for 10 years due to a Work injury which drained our savings and now my wife cannot Work as she has just had a very frightening diagnosis so with only the one income I can’t realise my dream by just working as a real estate agent as every cent goes on living. It is only in the last few weeks by joining Steemit and from reading posts by @jankasparec and by yourself and others that I now realise that there is hope for fulfilling my dream. Thanks again for your great advice as along with that from @jankasparec I feel it is going to change my life
Thank You
