Wow - absolutely extraordinary! I just happened to chance upon this post but the effort you're putting in is astounding.
Your current and future success are well deserved.
I've only joined recently but I'm already seeking out ways to connect with other Steemians within my city. It seems like it's the best path!
Building relationship is a huge key to success in any social media.
It always seems like life gives me a moderate amount of connections, but you always have to put in effort to get the right people, haha.
