A bigger 55!
Steemit is tough, the higher your go, the tougher is becomes and the harder it becomes for your reputation score to shoot up. Well there is no big deal about your reputation score, it's just a psychological mark and it could be deceiving you know...
I remember sometime 5 months back when i hit 50, it was a huge deal for me, I was happy and excited because just when i thought i couldn't survive, i found my self having success.
I did a contest giveaway and somehow i bumped into one of the winners yesterday and I'm glad he stayed because of the little push
I may be slow, it may not make sense to you but I'm here to celebrate another milestone.

It has been seriously challenging, there were days of zero rep, there still is, my payout is still relatively low, sometimes i get to busy and i hardly find time to blog, but all in all I'm still here.
The anchor for me has been living one day and a time and being my self.
Yeah, sometimes i wish i could be like this person or that person but in the end i realize that all i really have is myself.
let's do a contest...
I really do not have much but I'll give out a little of what i have to help and encourage those that are finding it difficult to glide through the waves...
Today i don't want you to put out your writing skills or singing skills or dancing skills or comedy skills, i want to know how you really feel, i want you to for a second pull off those masks and say things the way it is...
You'll be getting rewarded for expressing your challenges and frustrations.

Well am a newbie here i got my account in January at that time i was not that active but thanks to my inspirator @tony-duke that guy has been a blessing in disguise with his help i earn some sbd on my introductory post
Then after a few guides he said my man you're on your own now o lol
Okay so i started out here as a lazy poster i am not that good at writing it's not like i can't write but I'm lazy at it. So it was hard for me to make quality posts of mine at some point i did copy and past and had visits from cheetah lol.
But am glad to say thag i didn't stop there, even with all these set backs, still persisted, then i didn't know about stuffs like contests, until @tony-duke told me about @prechi's lipsync contest which he knew i was good at. I participated and won and that gave me the motivation i needed, then got to find out that there were other contests i participated in some won some and loosed others lol, what is life without some ups and downs. I was resolved to only contests then until i decided to try out my writing skills and it turned out i was not that bad at it at all i was just being a lazy youth lol
this post will say more lol. Anyways i had other stories i wrote that boosted my reputation i made some friends too like @julietisreal @kweenzykruzy @littlescribe lol and many others
My followers too has increased to 200+
I have made some sbd lol
And my sp is not much but it means a lot to me, to see that it is moving am sure you understand.
Anyways steemit turned me into a writer a better person and even today i was able to get my mom the shoe she always wanted lol the joy that was plastered to her face was too much to handle 😂
Am glad am a part of this great community and i haven't stopped running my mouth about it to my friends
So far my converts are @djyoungtee and @fresh
Am happy for your achievements once again i hope to see you prosper more
And i hope to surpass you too so keep an eye out for me lol
Congratulations once again

Cool. Im lacking in tge three posts part. I meet ot requirements sha.
Update your blog then
Thanks for this wonderful opportunity @vheobong .....And here's my story.
I came to know about steemit from a colleague in the office @cool-henry though he's not active and i decided to join on the 29th January 2018 just to give it a try though i never believed there could be a site where you make a post and you get some money in return.
My journey on steemit has never been very smooth, there are days when i post and i don't get upvote, there are days i get upvote from like 100 friends and the payout is so small, there are days i feel so frustrated and confused, there are days when i don't feel like making any post because of the low outcome.
I decided to join the telegram group that was suggested to me, i started reading some post by others which took me to some discord channel and from there i was becoming positive and i made a lot of friends also. Getting upvote is one challenge i'm still facing right now and one of my greatest challenge is getting to meet friends who are also on steemit around me in Lagos and less i forget the almighty cheetah also visited my post and that got me so discouraged but at least i know what to do now.
My post wasn't too good at that moment, i had to learn some markdown skills with the help from my good friend @korexe i was so excited at least my post would look attractive a bit i said.
It's the fifth month now on steemit i'm still struggling to get upvote, i have even lost courage and vibes for writting or making a post. But we all have a starting point and i hope some day i will get better and at the moment i'm:

Thanks and it a great privilege to be here.
Thanks for being a part of the contest, i believe you can still thrive.
Try joining a community and being active there, interacting on people's blog, it helps
Congratulations @vheobong, keep up the good works. I'm behind you all the way
Hi. Thanks for this. I'm a newbie.

The challenge I face is that my posts don't get upvote much. I'm an artist and I post my artworks but I feel like people don't acknowledge them. I feel like I'm wasting my time.
Ouch...
I'm so sorry about that
Well one thing I've noticed is that here you have to build relationships, your artworks are beautiful but you need to connect with the right network.
Here's a quick tip, join and be active in a community, click on the art tag and connect with fellow artistes, comment on their posts consistently and keep blogging too, one day you'll break through...
Nice one dear, keep soaring higher
Thanks love
Congrats o, let me go and prepare to join this contest. My rep is 25 from behind so I qualify
Sure
Wow!...great one!...@Vheobong great idea!.. I'm rooting for @fantomcee!...
Cheers!
