How do i start writing this?...i asked myself this question for about 20 minutes before i started typing what you are reading now. Writing about my life before and after steemit has been the hardest thing for me to do, because if i would want to talk about it, i won't finish typing so cutting it short makes it more difficult because i wouldn't want to miss any part.
As the saying goes, ''the opening line of your story always takes the longest time''.
My life before steemit
I would say my life before steemit had been a very boring one, i was never really a social media person. Why i wasn't really on social media was that, i saw it as a waste of time and money, being addicted to something i waste my time on without benefiting from it wasn't really my thing. I remember doing facebook once in awhile, WHY?. Because it helped me to connect with some friends i lost contact with for sometime.
I was really this music kind of person, so after school i spent most of my time in the studio making music. If i'm not in the studio i'm at home writing music. And also being a soccer lover i spent most of my weekends watching football and arguing with friends.
I lost my dad at a very tender age, so growing up as a kid without a dad made most part of my life a hard knock, especially struggling with education, thinking about daily bread, how do i get to pay for the roof over my head. So i would say it was a difficult one.
Life after steemit
I would say steemit came as a life changer for me, apart from the rewards and earnings. Steemit has really changed my life into something more spectacular. i had talents but i didn't have the chance to show it to the world, i didn't know how much i could write until steemit came along. Steemit has really improved my writing skills and gave me the opportunity to meet talented people around the world. I wouldn't have gotten the chance to meet the great writer and life motivator like @surpassinggoogle who have really impacted my life so much, steemit made this possible. Like i said earlier that i wasn't really a social media person, but right from the first day i came across steemit, i felt inlove with it. If i'm being asked of social media sites i know, i only know about one. And that is www.steemit.com
Hello @xpoze
About what you said about social media i totally agree with you,i also saw it as a waste of time.But today with steemot i must say it is not a waste of time because you earn while you write.
