I feel the same way - very hopeful and thankful for the things that have been happening. It feels like a lot of the efforts that I have been making over the last few years are starting to pay off. It has bee a tough but fun road for sure.
I like your quote:
I had to do it either way to work on my mental health and spiritual growth
To me this is such a big plus because there is just enough of a focus to keep me actively engaged doing something, improving my writing and learning new techniques and software.
Thank you alot. The truth is i have broken down because of combining both and my body pays for it badly. So i have to quit one really soon and it has to be my job. Jobs here is modern day slavery, from the pay to personal growth, to everything!
Flow so wide that reality can't stand it. Bend it to your will and take what you want like a bandit. Don't stop flowing even if you can't understand it, just pass it off to @bilbop and the mic he will command it!
You nailed it once again. Indeed in deed :D
The Force has prompted me to take my wife to see Q-oblius X-nob, the Dr Doolittle of Venus for a tune up. My arrival from the ethers may be delayed.
Your prescience and rapid deployment in the immanent zombie threat is greatly appreciated.
It's great to hear this is working out so well for you! I quit my job aswell. Trading it for blogging wasn't a conscious decision, but it's just what sort of happened. It does not pay better than a job for me, but atleast it's something and a nice investment for the future I hope!
Due to my burnout, I'm not really able to do the IT jobs I'd like to right now, so I'm happy there's atleast Steemit. This way, I still feel I'm useful and learning/improving skills!
You're right -- sometimes it is more of a risk to stay at a job than to quit. I'm happy to hear that this has worked out well for you in many different ways
I remember your article about you quiting your job to write on Steemit when posts were getting thousands. Rewards have fallen quite a bit. For myself, who never gets enough to buy a cellphone, there was no change for me.
It's just a keep at it thing to me. I don't really look at the money much, but all those posts that I did that were not worth much at the time are really adding up as steem price increases. The long term investment is worth it for sure.

Perfect timing. I really believe the blockchain is going to offer new opportunities for many people.
It is and more are still to come. I'm excited about the future and I haven't been in a long time. It's a good feeling.
your decision is a wise one..keep it up.
Thanks Frank.

Sometimes our mental health is just more important.
Exactly :-)

Like @sandstorm says, you win or you learn, and learning is winning. Failure was never an option :)
Absolutely! And by sharing your experiences, others may learn too.
