A Song of Fire and Fire-My Official Introduction

Hi there my fellow Steemians

My name is Yaseen Essack. I joined this community back in November 2016. I immediately began posting my content without taking the time to introduce and verify myself. I plan to do that today.

I am from South Africa, Johannesburg, and I am currently in my 3rd year of study, majoring in Genetics and biochemistry. I am an avid reader and writer as well. I have been writing for a little while now and I have posted a lot of these articles to Hubpages. Ever since I discovered Steemit I planned on migrating all my content here, one article at a time. I have already posted a few of these articles, as you may see. I have also been a guest blogger on PattyPets as I just love my animals (Don't worry I will link to everything below). I think the best way I can describe myself as a person is by using just one word....'confused'. I say this because I have dabbled in little bit of everything. I am a domain trader, a web designer, student, animal lover, cryptocurrency enthusiast, writer and a few other things as well.

Now for the good stuff... I have 2 of my own companies. One of them is an officially registered tech start-up called "TechaBite" and the other is more of a passionate endeavor. This would be my tuition company called "Path2Pass". I am currently in the process of redoing and developing the websites for both of these companies which I will link to below as well. I am extremely intrigued and committed to education and the plight of knowledge. I have a few ideas on an education or Q&A section on Steemit but I will get to that in due time.

Oh wait!!! I have not told you the meaning of my title. Do not fear though, I assure you it means something. It is also a shout out to all those GOT fans out there, like myself. Okay so basically, in the past 1 and a half years, I have experienced quite a few tragedies and freak occurrences. Namely, I have had 2 fires in this time (thus the title) and I lost my beloved best friend, brother and child all at once. What? Are you serious? Well...yes. My dog meant all these things to me and he past away last year September after a fight against cancer. I am not saying all this to furnish any pity or Steem. I just wanted to explain my motivation for doing what I am doing and also why I have not posted to Steem in many months.

And here is my dog, Kuba, and myself.

Anyway, moving on.

Remember how I said I am a writer? Well, I have a special gift for you. I wrote an eBook about a year back regarding Domain Name Trading. It is basically a beginners guide to trading domain names. It's not much but for those who are interested you can use this coupon and get the book for FREE. Here is the link to my eBook: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/616311 and here is the coupon code.
Coupon Code:VW88D
If you would like to support me, you can buy the eBook or alternatively upvote this post or donate to my Steemit address. @yaseeny15 (thank you @wthomas for the correction)

I am also a huge dog lover as you can tell and I plan to start my own blog soon, in remembrance of Kuba. So keep an eye out for CanineClan ;)
And now here are some pics of my 3 current dogs... just for fun.

That's Enzo, the Alsatian, and my camera-shy Simba, the mixed breed dog we rescued.

This is my little girl, Sasha. The cheeky Cocker Spaniel.

My intentions on Steemit are simple. I want to have fun, inspire, motivate, interact with this wonderful community, bring my ideas to life and make some money during the process. That's me being quite honest. The first thing that I will do is try and create consistent motivation posts. I would like to do this as I believe everyone needs a bit of motivation in their lives. Often we go through depression, loss, difficulty etc. and a lot of these videos, books, quotes, and articles have really helped me and I am hoping they may help you as well.

I will be posting daily, either a video or picture or quote or something similar that will motivate and inspire you. Sometimes, at the very least it may just put a smile on your face. I am going to put this into its' own category called 'SteeMotivation' and I welcome and would love it for anyone and everyone to join and post within this tag and category.

Okay... I am done. Thank you all for reading my story and I look forward to being more involved in this kick-ass cryptocoin community. I have shared all my links as well as a verification photo below.
