BIG NEWS!!!! GOING FULL TIME STEEMIT - EXCITING, SCARY - AM I READY?
WATCH THE FULL VIDEO HERE :
That's it! I've DECIDED. I am going FULL TIME STEEMIT and FULL TIME DTUBE. Words can hardly describe how good I feel so I made a video explaining my reasons and challenges.
It can be a dream coming true, and if it works for me then it can work for anyone else, and anyone can earn a full time salary here, just from blogging good quality content and adding to the steemit community. Isn't that wonderful how many options the free market provides? The only thing I see that people often miss out - is the effort and quality that they provide. You have to put effort in everything and posting good quality helpful content that helps people.
When I was first introduced to cryptocurrency’s I knew straight away there was a massive opportunity sitting in front of me, I was also annoyed at myself because I had heard of bitcoin before but never researched it. I have been on Steemit for one year and 6 months, but I was just loving the people, the community and of course it helped me in tough times.
Anyway I decided to take the plunge for the first 6 months and see where this could take me. I live in London, which is a very expensive city, and has super high taxes, so I am aiming at producing good quality content and working with @promo-steem and @starkerz and @stephenkendal to spread the word about Steem and the community. I want to make content just for Steemit, educating people how they can use it, what they need to do and so worth. I have already brought a lot of BIG youtubers and amazing talented people onto Steemit, which I will continue doing.
I loved my Job in the kitchen and social media, but it brings me no income. For last 4 years I have been just giving everything for free, working 16 hour days to produce amazing videos, recipes from my pocket. But I am looking for the financial freedom and ability to work anywhere in the world, and still doing what I love. Steemit has already changed my life, so I want to take further risk and make it full time. I have also created a second Steemit account with my partner in crime @ivargereiko and its called @bearandbee. If you want to see a lot of behind the scenes, crazy stories and traveling vlogs - do follow us there, we will do our first intro post very soon!
I’m going to commit myself to creating content of all forms for the site every day! I have already started a new 30 day fitness & health challenge, where I will do 3 SUPER HEALTHY recipes a day for everyone, breakfast, lunch and dinner all within calories you can eat and still lose weight and I am exclusively doing Fitness vlogs for @dtube every day. I am also panning and organising the Steemit lessons, I will talk about that in more details in few days. But If you missed my lessons before, and you are new to Steemit, you might want to check out my old article of all my Steemit lessons combined here : https://steemit.com/steemit/@allasyummyfood/steemit-lessons-all-parts-in-one-post-for-beginners
I am still learning about crypto currencies, but I have amazing friends who are helping me all the time @wingz and @demotruk have been so amazing, thank you! I want to use Steem and other cryptocurrencies as leverage to become a better person and help in the creation of a better world.
Thank you for reading and for commenting! Please share, upvote and let me know your thoughts! Alla xxx

This is indeed a very brave decision. One I've consider countless times but yet to get myself to do it. But the longer I blog the more I see a better future here than in any offline job.
I remember going all in to buy STEEM on bittrex in December because I really believe the future of steem. I've definitely not regretted it. Can't wait for the launch of SMTs either.
I hope to follow in ur footsteps soon.
Cheers
Well done Alla! I am sooo proud of you! You are so humble person and brave enough to take risks, no doubts great success to come! All the best with your Steemit profile grow. Your content always outstanding and extremely interesting and helpful and inspiring for others. Also I am so excited a lot about our @bearandbee channel :) xxxxxxxxxx
heheh thank you so much Ivars!! it means a lot!! I am really scared, but I have a good gut feeling and if I put all my energy into this like i did with everything else, there is a bright future!! :))) yes our channel @bearandbee will be super cool and exciting!! I cannot wait!! :))) xxxxxxxx
Hi Alla, you are one of the 1st I followed on Steemit when I started 3 months ago. These were quitte exilirating 3 months!
Professionally, I am an independent and earn my living via multiple streams (Teaching and tutoring late teens in real life, and online, composing music and selling licenses, and producing video courses in music production and physics).
Then, Steemit came in and takes now about one 3rd of my time. This fraction is increasing week after week. I am starting to be cautious, and make sure it doesn't eat too much on my other activities. Epecially real life ones.
Why?? because life is impermanent. I believe strongly in a bright future for this patform, but one never know what can happen.
When I write here, I write for the Steemit community. Yet, I do keep my posts in html and all pictures safe on a hard drive. I make sure that what I produce here could be useable in another context. For example for you, I would compile all your receipes. Your posts could be a great starting point to write a real physical book!
In other words, do not place all your eggs in the sme basket.
Be well, and keep posting your yummy content!
Yayyy!!! This is super exciting and probably also means that all we're going to talk about at home is Steemit. Haha Love you and support your every decision! xX
Congrats Alla!
I totally remember what it was like for me when I quit my job because of cryptocurrencies and with the intention of working on Steem a lot more than I was doing already.
I share your excitement and apprehension!
Steem on! You're doing awesome!
I'm glad to be part of this with you!
Bold move! Wish you luck! Following you now.
That is a very brave. I think its a great Step .
Best Of luck :)
boobs really do attract upvotes
Well done for having the courage to make this decision, best of luck with this next step on your journey!
Congratulations on making the big move over to full time Steemit and DTube content creation. I have a feeling you'll be perfectly fine! Who needs a job...?
