If you think it's too "noisy" right now to get known on Steemit, wait until 2019 when there will be 10X more people here and 100 times harder... so in other words, get started now and start making new friends.
This is fantastic advice and a word of encouragement for everyone! Get out there and engage now! Because the masses ands herds are coming and it'll even be harder to stick out from the noise.
Great job at practicing what you preach sir. Always enjoy the posts!
