I'm now on glass ice, I know. I don't have much knowledge of this. Anyway, if you want to develop further on Steemit then you need other social media channels. And in my opinion these channels are best used if you have the same overall appearance. With this blog I try to make a start in creating a perfect background photo.

How to begin

I don't know how you create a perfect background image, but you have to start somewhere. First thing I did was  opening paint on windows. It's a program which everyone has and is easy yo use. Second thing was searching for  things/words/pcitures which really suits me. 

Steemit profile

To find words which fit me I sought at my Steemit profile. There I described myself as follows:  I'm an insurance guy who loves crypto. Enjoys soccer. Try to be mindfull. And love my family.

Cryprocurrency

These things are very basic but are definitely true. I spend a lot of time building up my knowledge about cryptocurrency, because that's the thing what gives people their freedom. The banks and the government of the Netherlands, but also of many countries around us. All they do is milk the ordinary citizen. They make sure that we have to work hard for our money. They give us the idea that the economy is starting to pick up by letting this constantly recur in the news. It is played so monotonously every hour that you almost have to believe it. But when I view my bank account, I don't see it. No, once the economy picks up, it's only the rich people who see their wealth grow. In short, this was the reason for me to delve deeper into the decentralized world of cryptocurrency. I think this worls is growing so fast last 2 years because that's an economy where there's something to be gained for a normal citizin. 

Insurance guy

The insurance guy is a simple one. I've been working since 1999 in the insurances world. It's not the work I always wanted to do. But I ended up in here when I was doing an internship. Or let me put it that way. First I ended up in an accountant's office. But this felt so stiffly, that I ended in the insurances afterwards.  The insurance people where very relaxed in that time. There was not yet a blind eye for figures, but everyone simply did what was expected of him/her. This was much nicer than what it is today. I am still in this world, because I have built up a lot of knowledge and earn my income from it. But if I can really choose, I would replace it immediately for the cryptoworld.

Soccer addict

What should I say about it. When I was a little boy of about 6 years old it started when I was shooting a ball with my father in the backyard. Until one day, somebody from the local soccer club walked by and suggested to put me on soccer. I really liked that idea. But it  was only allowed by my parents if I first got my swimming diploma. And believe me, I got it in a blink of an eye. From the age of 7 I became a member, went through the yought and got it in the first team around my 20th. I had great timed with my teammates, my friends and many other clubmates. And now I'm 42 and I still love playing soccer (also the third half is great!). 

Just like my 7-year-old daughter who's also crazy for soccer. So soccer plays a big role in my life. 

My family

I believe everyone who has children loves his family (also without children of couse). But children do add something special. In the beginning when they are small, they cry a lot and keep you awake at night. Diapers full of barges, cramps and throw out their milk. If this time goes by and they become more active then it really starts to get fun. The moment they start talking, walking, moving and experiencing things, than the real family feeling is developing. To prevent this from becoming a long story about children. Family is great to have. Not only your children of course, also all other family member are important. Be aware that you have them and enjoy the time that you have regularly.

Mindfull

to come back to the insurance work I have been doing for years. What I said. In the past it was not all that frenetic and there was a lot more freedom to do your work. Today, the whole work has been limited to numbers. Numbers are becoming so sacred that the management forget to look at the people who deliver the performance. And that is why stress and overstrain have started to play a major role. It is not only in insurance, but in most   work nowadays. In order not to lose yourself in your work, I followed mindfulness since more then a year ago. At first, I thought it would be floathy stuff. But I took the step and wanted to be able to judge for myself what it was. And I have to say, so far it has worked out fine. I am not going to promote this until you don't wanne hear it anymore. But if you are someone who is inclined to do his job well. Then I invite you to go to a mindfulness coach. If you are still looking for an excellent coach in the area The Hague. I can recommend you an excellent coach. You want to know more about it. Let me  know in the comment. Then I give you additional information.

Insurance guy, loves crypto, enjoys soccer, be mindfull and love my family

In all the things that I have just described, I went looking for pictures on the internet and I came to the next background photo. Most of the pictures describe exactly what I have indicated. Only you will not immediately see the connection between football and the picture with the fist through the window. That fist through the window is more a symbolic thing. When I played soccer I always tried to make a difference with my perseverance. Always keep going until your limit. And that's what I try to portray in this way.

Twitter Facebook and Instagram

I also add this background to my twitter and other social media platforms.

As you can see, I am not a big viewing cannon at Twitter. I do not necessarily have to be that. But I do think it makes a difference if you follow the same line on all social media profiles.

Please leave your comment 

Anyway, that's how I think you can eventually grow more on Steemit and other social media. I would like to hear feedback from people who know more about it. And that doesn´t have to be apparent from the number of followers you have. I would love to hear any comments to get clear where I can improve things. That may, in my opinion, be any form of criticism. Only in the case of a real strange reaction I will not give a reply.

And if you want I would love to give comment on your profile. This can be both positive and constructive. If you ask for my comments, I will  give it as I see it.

Resteem and/or upvote. Appreciated!

I would appreciate it if you Resteem or upvote. I would really love to reach a bigger public to get the necessary info to improve myself.
