I love Steem as well! Although my Steem isn't all from blogging and some from my own investment, I know I'm making more Steem with the Steem I have!
If you're like me and sometimes have your vote power over 100%, I suggest you check out Minnowbooster (referral link) if you haven't already. I set it so that whenever my voting power is above 98%, I sell my votes so I know my vote power isn't going to waste plus I have enough vote power to use myself!
