❤️ Surround yourself by people you want to be like: Find YOUR people on Steemit! ❤️

Have you ever heard of the saying that you are made up of the 5 closest people? People who interact with you on a daily will have the most powerful influences on your life.

When I meet people that I admire, I take the time to get to know them. I have met so many amazing people in my life, and I have so many mentors. I appreciate other artists, entrepreneurs and people with positive energy. Everyday I strive to be a better person and to have a positive attitude on life. It is easy to achieve these two simple goals when I have other positive influences in my life. I believe that we feed off other people’s energy. Have you ever noticed that when you are around people that are depressed, their negativity could also bring you down?

Life is too short to waste. Find people you want to be like and connect with them. We should all be grateful for the Steemit community. Steemit is the perfect platform to do so!

Here a couple people I really enjoy on Steemit:
I really admire and love reading @kaylinart’s blogs. I love that we have so much in common being artists and all. I admire her ambition to write quality posts daily. I love hearing her thoughts and ideas. If you haven't had the opportunity to read her blogs, I highly encourage you to check her out!

I also really admire @xaero1 for all of his knowledge about cypto currency! @xaero1 you are such an awesome friend, and I'm so grateful to have you in my life. May our future days on Steemit be filled with more laughter, jokes, and GOT references.

Lastly, I just want to give a shout out to @cecirod1218 for all of her positive words. Wishing you a safe recovery and healing!

Who are some of your favorite people on Steemit?

I think you can seperate it in online and offline.
For example I have many friends offline and some of them influence me in a really positive way. So let's just say I have 5 people offline who I want to surround myself with the most.
On the other hand I also have some friends/contacts/sources online that I really admire and like to read/watch. Of course they influence me as well and in some parts way more than my offline friends. On the internet there always will be way more knowledge available than in your offline surrounding. So problems/concepts like selection bias are way more prevealing and therefore important. Online has way more potential - but way more problems as well.

Hope my sentences are not too confusing - excuse (and please tell me) my spelling mistakes :) Greets from Austria, Martin!

hehe love this! I agree and great point. I would say I have my closest online friends and I have my closest offline friends. Both bring great value, just in different ways. :) Thanks for this awesome thought.

Also thanks for the ReSteem! I really appreciate it :)

That is exactly what I wanted to point out :) Nobody should build his/her bases on just the internet - real life connections are important as well!

absolutely! :) Real life is REALLY awesome. hehe! But I do see so much value in the online community.

There is. Online you will be able to get informations in hours you wouldnt get in a year offline ;)

@ghulammujtaba is certainly one of my most favorite people online AND offline as well. He is my guide to Steemit too.

I wanted to appreciate the way you write, Karen. That beautiful Asian softness in the writing feels so good.

ahh I'll have to check @ghulammujtaba out. Thanks for the share! :)

Please do. He's a great author.

OMG!😽

Thanks and salutations! Can I say you are so sweet! (like a 🍓, right? 😄😄😄😄😄)

HAHHAA! :) You are sweet too... like a 🍉 though! Oh did you know watermelons are my favorite fruit? 😄😄😄

Also 01, since you might go radio silent in the near future, I'm going to go ahead and post a blog right now for you... I wrote it specifically for you, as one of the blogs you requested. Maybe it will help you out :) maybe good timing too if you are feeling stressed!

Hey awesome thanks!

Btw, if I haven't responded to recent messages it's because I'm trying to go through them them in a logical fashion like the computer scientist that I am.
Basically, we refer to a 'queue' abstract data type as FIFO....which means 'first in first out' 😂

Will definitely check your posts today....which should hopefully be within the 5 day limit for upvotes (since this message was 3 days ago!)

But I'm gonna look for that one you mention right now! As I say, many thanks for thinking of me!😄😄😄😄😄

Hehehe... well I went to school for business... they have the same term for that as well. Learned it in accounting class... first in first out, when counting inventory. I'm a nerd too 🤓🤓🤓

Hahha detail oriented and linear! 🙃

Of course! Thanks for the friendship 😀

Ahaha!.... you probably know TA better than me - too!... and the whole 'which way up should the chart go' thing was a ruse from start!😜😂

Actually seems I'm pretty up-to-date!...I was expecting 100s of posts by you - you must be slacking off!😉😂😄

Haha nice nice

This is gold!

Hahha wait for it! Going to post in the next 5 mins and the one more after that! 😆😆😆😆

I'm getting closer! ;-/

Haha today's blog is about what prevents us from learning! 🤓🤓🤓

Btw guess where I'm headed right now? 🙃

No idea..... let me take a guess - San Francisco? 🤣

Also you haven't seen my massive one page analysis as to what you should do as lord of steemit! 😉😉😉😉

Excellent, can't wait!😄

Morning Jon Snow! 😄😄😄 I saw you wrote a blog yesterday... you know what that means... duty of reading all the comments all day. HAHA wait until you get to mine... it's like a page long! :)

hahah how's your day been so far?

I'm about to make my first post of da day! be on the lookout! :)

I'm literally shaking my head in despair at all the replies!🤣

But the plan is if people want to spam my posts, at least they can stick to spamming that one! Any other posts, And Jon Snow is going to have to toughen up, I think!! Flag / mute .... oh, the horror!😱

my favorite people aren't on steemit yet. One day I hope they will be and I will be sure to follow them.

awww! :) Tell them to hurry up please! :)

Very nice post! That are good tips you mentioned which I will surely use from now on! Thank you for sharing :)

What a beautiful post and beautifully presented. I am following you expecting lots of inspiring work to come. I think you just became one of my latest favourites!
I am a life lover, photographer, nature loving surfer down in Costa Rica.

WoW, thats an interesting post and chat about offline and online friends. I think one of the most valuable part (and maybe a partially reason of all these DDoS attacks) of online friends is, that as you are connected to the whole world you can really become friends with the ones that "suit" you the most, where as in the real world it may take you longer to find someone who "knows" what you are talking about. Soulmates where thoughts are understood, moods respected and love appreciated. I really love both kind of friends, and I wouldn't want to miss one or the other. I think if we use the web in a good way, we can actually have a huge impact! OOoooh yeeaAH!!

Your so sweet sweetheart! Thank you for giving me a shout! Hugs and kisses 😊
