Today, I had the rare experience of being swept off my feet by a bio on Steemit. It did two things; made me laugh and told me exactly what the blog was about.

In my short time with @onequality, I have found that the temptation to write generic articles is very strong for upcoming Steemians, and sometimes too strong to overcome.

This got me thinking. If we could succinctly describe, in not more than 150 characters, who we are and what people can expect from our posts, then I think majority of us will be a lot more focused.

It's said that when you have no clue where you're going, every point you get to will look like your destination. Now what if the opposite was the case? What if we could define our purpose and goal? Won't it save us a lot of time wasted meandering?

Because it is called "goal" doesn't mean it has to be just one thing. It just means you're deciding to focus the bulk of your energy on these things.

In light of this, I'll like the community to take on this task of writing a bio that describes you/your blog in not more than 150 characters.

I am a lost person In this world, always lost or I would say isolated from most. The opinion people have around me where I live, I can't understand how can they see their life like that. They are not happy to live like that but they have to, because they have seen everyone to live and die like that. They are now forcing me to live as per their rules.
I am broke, i am lost, i am alone, and Now I have found steemit, Here I can say what I want and learn from a lot of people the other way of living, "The Unusual Way". And that's why I am here and that's who I am and that Is what I will write about here.

I will write about Life.

Great! Good to have you here.

Life is an interesting topic to write about!

Im learning lost is a good thing in the end, if you lost, it means you have everything and anything to find... magical :)

I feel a little magical after reading your comment.

I think Steemit needs a character counter under the text box.

33 characters

I'm a 20 years old from Venezuela. I make poems, stories, write articles about almost everything and i'm starting a health and fitness series articles.

Games, movies, tech, and Bigfoot – just some of the topics I stick my nose in when writing. Resteem, like and comment to keep me steeming along.

Nice. What's your favorite game and movie?

Favorite game is a hard one but I find myself replaying classics from Nintendo (Mario, Donkey Kong Country, etc). Spider-Man 2 on Android is a comfort game I play - just swinging around the city is great.

Movies, I have to go with Transylvania 6-5000, Fifth Element, Terminator 1 and 2 and the original Transformers (animated) movie.

Can't narrow it down to just one as there are too many I enjoy.

Just recently started playing Paper Boy again for NES. Made it to Friday ! BTW Fifth Element is a great pick. Don't forget Princess Bride as a fav movie though ;)

Haha! I wish I was this into games 🙄 Or movies 😩

Hi @fisteganos, my entry is below and the post has been resteemed. Cheers!

@Starsteem is a blog you can go to and find out my thoughts on Crypto's as a noob (where I am now) and watch me evolve into someone who has a clue. You will see pictures and read stories about my life, family and interests (of which Steemit is moving up the latter). I will share and be ready to engage in conversations on many topics (in addition to those already mentioned) ranging from investing, sports, health and working out (weight loss), parenting, photography, travel, movies, music, AND most importantly you will get inside my head and see my character (which I am told is quite funny). Allowing for real connections to take place and producing content and interactions that will hopefully be seen as ripe fruit ready to be consumed by those who come seeking knowledge or at a bare minimum entertainment within our Steemit community.

My bio is the same as it was from the jump, as it is still my goal and passion.

My goal with Scaredycatguide is to provide financial education to those who are risk averse

Not the sexiest thing, but it's what I do. You can exclude mine as an entry, prefer newer users that are working hard to build SP receive the bump. Steem on!

I like your entry tho. Goes straight to the point and says all I need to know!

Well done and thanks for stopping by.

Thanks, happy to stop by. Interested to see the entries and how it plays out.

Me

At one point in my life. I was ruining myself, just sitting and eating shit. Everyone hate me. Then I thought of my father " if he can run 6 km why can't I". That changed my life forever. I am addicted to health now. Thats what I do on steemit. I want every steemian to be healthy

I promote health
I write about health

Nice. Health is wealth they say. It's a great cause you're promoting.

You like birds? I'm curious to know why 😊

One, they are hard to take good pictures of, and I like a challenge. Two, I believe them to be among some of the most majestic animals on the planet.
