Hello and good day y'all. I'm Kalada epelle from Nigeria.

I was introduced to steemit by @samiwhyte last year August. It sounded great, especially the part where you get paid for the things you post. So I joined steemit and the most amazing thing happened, I ran out of ideas and motivation. 

The basis of my motivation was that I was gonna make quick cash on steemit and probably catch up with Mark Zuckerberg or even Jeff Bezos, at least I had the billionaire mindset. When I saw posts with 2$ and 4$ I was discouraged and I had to go on a long break but now I'm back on steemit because I got to understand that beyond the cash, it's fun having people around that hear your voice and are genuinely interested in knowing what you know and learning from you. 

I realized steemit is not just a platform where you just make money but a place where your voice becomes relevant because you're heard by people of like minds. 

I'm hoping to start a series titled  *Let Nature Inspire You* and I'll really appreciate everyone's comment on that so I can deliver better content. Thanks for reading this and see you on my next post.
