Daily Vlog: Job stressin me out, Contemplating doing Steemit Full Time!!!!

in #steemit7 years ago (edited)

Daily Vlog #1



Welcome back to my page my follow Steemoligist!!!! It's been couple days since I uploaded a video.  I'm not gonna lie since I have been having success on his platform it's getting harder to stay at my job.  Right now only thing keeping me at my job is my wife and the fact that having a job gives you some sort of security.

I have been a street dude all of my life and I paid the price for it with four years of my life in prison.  So I never really had a job for an extended period of time.  The job I am at now I have been at for three years!!!!! That's a personal record for me.  So I don't want to lose what I have worked hard to accomplish.  I went from being and unemployable felon to a being a boss at my job.  Ever since I got this promotion it's just been one big headache.  Not to mention my promotion came without a raise.  But everyone before me who had this position made more than $20/hr, but I guess I'm not white enough for them.  Or they probably think I desperately need this job. Thanks to Steemit that is not necessarily true anymore.  Since my first week of payouts I have consistently earned more on Steemit than what I got in check from work.  I'm not talking about one week but every single week since I started Steemit.  

I know the right thing to do is stay at my job but this decision is a battle that won't end and is only getting harder.  I know that if I was forced to do Steemit full time I will rise to the occasion.

I hope you guys enjoyed these short words vlog!!!!!


Until the next post


STEEM ON!!!!!

Sort:  

I commend you my brother. I don't wish prison on anyone. I know how it feels to be caged like an animal, feeling hopeless. I always tell people to follow their hearts and have a game plan before leaving a job that is keeping the lights on. I agree with @stackin i would do both until you have a proven track record on Steemit and its paying the bills. Continue to give your followers that raw unfiltered content. People really need to see the truth and struggle people go through on a daily basis. Im so tired of the bloggers that try to sweeten their circumstances to try and make themselves look more superior.
I truly believe your blogs are good enough to make you successful on this platform. Just continue to stay on that right path and being the provider for your family. #StayBlessedKing

Thanks for your kind words!!!!! This actually cheered me up have a great day lil homie!!!!! I'm gonna check your page out!!!!! Keep grinding!!!!!!

I am humbled that i was able to bring some joy into your day my brother.

keep it cool for a little longer bro

Just want to say "Thank You x3 @mrviquez I found you via @craig-grant, and have been watching your vids since day one. You truly have inspired me to start blogging and vlogging about my life. Everyone has a story to tell, and like a mentor once told me... "A Life worth living, is a life worth recording."

It's almost as if I know you, because I lived in Buffalo for 2 years. So when I see you out in the neighborhoods and doing the smoke and chills, it's like being right back in Queen City.

Still trying to figure out the platform, but as a stroke survivor on disability, you've given me hope that I can earn income, along with shareing my life and my message,

Thanks again sharing your story, being an inspiration and making my days with your vlogs Bro!

As Always...

STEEM ON BABY!

I know how it feels to be in a stressful job and be under valuated. I think you just have to find out what's the best thing to do in your case. I think whatever you decide will have pros and cons. Leaving the job would give you more time with your loved ones, but you'd be forced to be 'on the job' all day too. I've been reading and following your work here and I think you're one of those people who could do anything you put your mind to! You've come a long way and maybe this here on steemit is only the beginning. Whatever you decide: good luck and all the best on your journey.

Thanks and I appreciate you watching my content.... Thanks for your encouraging words.

I would do both, when you start making your desired amount on steemit, then go full blast and you can make your decision then.

As an Entreprenuer, you take risks but 20 years ago when I decided to go full time... I found job security wand and is the biggest risk of all time.

At due time, you'll make the right decision 🙌🏼💪🏼💯

Try and not let quick money..sway you...if you fall out of favor of the big boys.. that give you that push...will you still be getting paid big dollars? May you continue to thrive! and find success...on your own without the big boys giving the push..bless up!

some quotes like nothing lasts forever and don't put all your eggs in 1 basket...after steemit will be something else.. tu sabes? what you learn you can take with you anywhere :)

I can understand wanting to leave your job and the frustration of getting a promotion without the pay of your white colleagues, that's fucked!
That being said, even with your success on Steemit..perhaps it's wise to ensure yourself a comfortable nest egg before leaving your current job.

Keep it up, keep growing and you'll go far! All the best to you and your family!

dude, that's awesome! i love your vids; they seem really sincere and may i say, humble. i actually hope to be able to make the same move someday. one can dream right?
"benzo, what's all this crypto thing you keep talking about?"
i try to explain, then crickets and a change of subject. try the salmon...please.
stay tuned for my introduction post...
p.s. what's up wit smoke & chill? chance of comin back?

ESTEEM ON!

Thanks for the comment who knows when I will do another Smoke&Chill but I will still smoke when I record...lol

excellent...looking forward...and ill join ya lol

thats life bro, i got a payrise and promotion one time, what they didnt tell me was with more money comes more effort, more of my time , less time with my family. In the end i was working like 60-70 hrs a week inc work at home which equated to minimum wage when i compared hours v salary. Hope you work it out :)
