Hey, @nathanmars honestly selling your house for steem is a bold move and am glad you did it because the risks we don’t take are the ones we will regret. And the first step to any achievement is to find the courage to take a risk, do what you love, and commit to your goal and from the start, I know having $100 is your goal in two years

The great successes in life are made by concentration

In life we have two natures, one wants to advance and the other wants to pull us back, but the one we concentrate on and develop determines what we will become. A concentrated thought changes our careers and accomplishes miracles for us.
Investing in steem power right now is the best thing because we all know steemit in five years it is going to be great and for the fact that Steemit has two years of existence and almost 1 Milion user accounts gives it a great competitive position to be the leader in this new generation decentralized social media world so five now from now Steem Power is going to be a rare commodity going forward. Am pretty sure people that 500 sp and above will be envied that time, I sense STEEM is going to run up the charts in terms of price/ market.STEEM already has a community of users who are committed to its success. It is this fact that makes it a diamond in the rough.

Would you take the risk to follow your own dreams ???

life is full of risks when someone told me steemit actually this person talked about steemit in a group of 50 people yes am lucky I was among. The 49 didnot take it serious but I did I told my self let me try if it fails then I will chill so I began my steemit journey with the friend that mentioned it when I was blogging the other friends would say "first show us the money before we can start too" I made my first withdraw and that is when they realised thing was real currently they are all joining now and right now earning is hard like never before so they keep wishing they had done it earlier what am driving home is If there is something in your gut telling you that this is what you want to do, you owe it to yourself to, at the very least, acknowledge it and think about how it might come to fruition.
