RE: Can Steem take over the social media universe?

in #steemit7 years ago

That is really great @jamesbrown. Your success is phenomenal and quite an inspiration for people like me who just got started on steemit. I wish one day I will reach to a status like you. Keep up the good work and keep us inspiring! 👍

Thanks for the kind words, man.

The honest truth is that I've been a chump for most of my life, just like the majority of the male population. I haven't accomplished even 5% of what I aimed to achieve as a man. I've "settled-with" in so many ways and I've been more a slave than a free man during most of my life.

That said, I made a few right choices along the way and dedicating a good portion of my energy (time) to Steemit is one of them. From here, RIGHT NOW, I can choose to use this fork in my life as a catapult to growing as the man that I've always wanted to be and I have chosen that course...and, if you find yourself in a similar position to me, you can too!

The way to feeling whole/ fulfilled as a man is to allow ourselves the freedom to do what we want, on OUR TERMS, and to foster the belief that we can achieve anything we set our minds on and then DO IT. That can start right now. and momentum can build up quickly if we can manage to hone our focus on this new goal.

To say it more succinctly: don't wish that you will reach my status, come join me!

I am sure you are not "chump" you are trying to express yourself to be. The very next sentence proves that you are very matured and ambitious person who has accomplished many things in life. Only those can say they have achieved only 5% who has dreamed much, others don't even know what they want and what they dream of. We have to "settled-with" few things in life and that is absolutely fine, no regret about that.

And yes, your decision to spend more time on steemit has surely paid you off. I am also trying to give it some of my energy with a hope that I would be able to make a small fortune in future using this platform. Let's see how it goes! I am glad to know that you are at a position to take full control of your life thanks to steemit. I wish you best of luck for living your life on your OWN TERMS and achieve all the things you have ever wanted.

I am really happy that I could connect with you on this platform. I will always be around! And I will work hard to join your league soon.

Thank you very much James for sharing your life with me and providing further encouragement. 👍

Not "am", "I've been" :)

...but you're right. Thanks for pointing out the self-sabotaging mindset that imprisoned me to begin with. I'm beyond that now!

Right back at you, bro. You're already in my league, your wallet just hasn't reflected it yet. It will.

Glad to know that. It is one of the pillars of success.
