A BIG THANKS to Steem and All My Followers!
All the witnesses/whales /dolphins/minnows), Upvoters (especially @dan and @shaka), Commenters, Resteemers and Guides! I feel blessed to be here amongst you!
Being on Steem has inspired my blogging.
The Steem method of feedback for rewarding authors is unique and gratifying. I love writing and feel I have found the best possible cyberspace platform for it.
I Have Proven To Myself Results Are Possible
I found Steem two weeks ago and decided to experiment. I didn't have much expectation to begin with. I read some posts and found some guidelines and then launched my Introduceyourself article. It got over $10 in upvotes. Not bad, and not so good.
I wrote a few more articles like that and then really applied myself to my article on Steem's Economy and it is now trending at nearly $100 (thanks to @dan and @shaka especially). That made me a true Steem believer.
Needs - Interests - Concerns
It also confirmed my professional training and experience in terms of, "Speaking to people's 1) Needs 2) Interests and 3) Concerns."
Finding your audience and understanding them is the key here. Keep writing about what you know and like and you will get found.
More Posts Equals More Followers and More Rewards (Vests)

Reputation Matters and Can Be Boosted!
Reputation has a lot to do with first impressions and how people who do not know you assess you and whether or not they will even read, what to speak of upvote your articles. Being active, posting, upvoting, commenting, following and getting upvoted and followed in return seems to all help.
I want to thank you all again.
Keep on Steeming and Resteeming - It really works!
