Hello friends. I must say that I was a little overwhelmed by all of your interesting and encouraging comments regarding how Steemit has benefited you personally.

I'm sending 1 Steem to each of the testimonials listed below but don't forget to add your testimonial to week two of Testimonial Tuesday!

Just as a reminder, here are the questions that I asked:

What did you learn?
How did you grow?
What new friends have you made?
How has the Steem blockchain impacted you financially?
What goals have you reached?
What dreams do you see yourself grasping and turning into reality?

Now Let's Take a Look at Some of Your Answers!

Here below you'll see testimonials from all over the world! Keep in mind that I've edited some of these to make them a little shorter.

How honoured I am!😇 And it's a blessing to find a fantastic way to earn money when I'm just a teenager!!!🤑Steemit is awesome!!! 👌Love u all!!!❤❤❤ "

@filotasriza3 (An exotic country)

"For me aside from the money factor cause i don't care that much about it, at least for now it introduce me for free to the world of cryptos and literally by spending 0$ just a little bit of my time that i would spend on Youtube and facebook gave me the opportunity to buy some other cryptos. Also i had the chance to meet and find amazing people in here from all over the world that again if i were on facebook and instagram trying the same we all know the result :p"

@alexandraioana26 (Romania)

"In November I joined Steemit at that moment I had no clue about cryptocurrency, but I wanted to find more about this world and actually, I always wanted to have a blog but never had the courage, I thought I don't have the skills of a blogger, apparently I was quite wrong if I look at my number of followers, I am more confident now thanks to the stemians I met!

In these months I learned that I know almost nothing about the world who surrounds us.I love this community because thanks to Steemit I met such beautiful persons from the entire world (Australia, Mexico, Israel, USA, Peru), I improved my English because it got really rusty, I found out interesting things about different cultures, everyday I am learning something new! Thanks to this community I forgot about Facebook or Instagram so I don't procrastinate, currently, I am using only Steemit and Twitter (to be in touch with the news related to crypto)."

My gut feeling tells me that Steemit will have a greater impact on my life than I could ever imagine ;) "

@janine-ariane (Belgium)

".....Could not live without it, this moment of my life. But not for that reason! I just love the new people that i met, all the contests, going on, all the pictures, + the joy of searching your own pictures again :-) I am writing again in freewrites, things I did not feel free to do at facebook, because all your friends have their own opinion...."

These Steemers Have Seen Their Financial Situation Improve!

@dim753 (Colombia)

"Steemit changed my life literally because i want to buy a house for my mom because that's her dream and my dream too so with the coins i earn with steemit i'm saving them to buy the house although it will be small but own. In colombia a house has a price of 55000 USD and i'm sure that without steemit that dream can't be truth quickly now i have 8000 USD combined my saving with steemit and money saving from my salarie and i think in 2019-2020 my dream will come true."

"i was jobless & now i'm earning so good that i can easily pay for my expenses. Steemit makes me self dependent. I'm not a native english speaker but my english & communication skills are also improved. Thanks to all steemit & all my fellow steemians "

@cindycam (Venezuela)

Friends, my country is going through one of the worst moments in history, so as I said at the beginning Steemit is a blessing. Steemit came to make me show the best of me and feel valued, in addition to allowing me financially get a stability to find calm......what helped me the most was getting enough money to pay for an operation that I received on December 19, 2017, gallstones. I was completely full of these calculations and if they were not eliminated immediately, it could cause my death, I did not have the necessary resources to be treated, then one day, Steemit, who are all of you, allowed me to pay for the operation.

@stevenalexander (USA)

“....I was shown nothing but pure love and support. I came on to steemit with a positive attitude, a bit of consistency and some patience. These 3 qualities were enough to break through here on steemit. In the beginning I wasn't making anything! I was posting everyday and most days I made nothing. On a good day I made 50 cents and this went on for quite some time. I'd say that the first month was definitely tough but the biggest thing I did was not give up.....

All of my hard work seems to be paying off finally ! I have successfully gotten to a place of making real income here! Doing what I freaking love! I had a dream to make a living with a Wifi connection. I am on my way ! Holy crap it feels good. I almost can't believe where my life is headed! Is it too soon to get this excited? Maybe.. But I don't care. I have purpose today and I've never felt better...."

@jlufer (Argentina)

I am from Corrientes Capital, a small city of one million inhabitants located in the northwest of Argentina, I am 49 years old, a year and a half ago that I publish every day on this very beautiful platform, I am connected more than 17 hours. a day, preparing, commenting, healing and interacting with people who visit my post daily, you could say that I live for Steemit, even when I sleep I dream that I am in Steemit......

.....I had heard many stories of people commenting on how their lives changed after working online, this caught my attention and I decided to venture, one morning I woke up, talked with my family and announced my retirement from work, all were left with their mouths open, They could not believe what they were hearing, more than thirty years saying that working in the supermarket was my life and my vocation....."
