Lucky Seven

Today marks exactly 7 years till I first took the GIANT leap and signed up here.
Its been 7 magnificent years, every day, every month and year filled with joy, pride, knowledge and many many new friends.

Today I will tell you something that you may not know.

I signed up on the 11th of October 2017, but it took me 6 whole days to prepare and publish my introduction post! (I will celebrate that separately on the 17th of October :))

I could have neglected or forgotten that.
I could be disheartened by the small amount of rewards throughout the year.
I could have chosen other activities.

But I felt that this was something different. Something growing and something real.

I felt that I needed to be a part of it.

And I still cant believe how many things have happened all these years, the blockhain has witnessed a hard fork (of freedom) and amazing development. Many of the old gang are still here, standing strong!

I myself have made a lot of friends, I have learned a whole new things and even got a few certifications & a Masters Degree along the way.

I had a conversation with someone the other day who said to me
I wish I had started that activity 2 years ago
I told her. You need to be proud of yourself. Starting is an achievement either way. Well done and keep it up

So, if you are reading this - remember.

Take the leap forward

You will not regret it!

Thanks for coming by and reading this!

p.s. If you are wondering how I celebrated today - I took a cold bath in the ocean, a warm bath at home and I am drinking a cold beer as I write this :)
