@surpassinggoogle, I think what makes me most happy about your sharing and efforts here is that you demonstrate the importance of looking at Steemit as a kind of "savings program" on the rewards side, not just a way to try to make money for next week's groceries.
For me, this is a "social" venue, but too many people just talk about "money, money, money." People can build a future, here! Just like ALL social media, it takes patience, and you have to focus on building connections and relationships with others. And it can take time.
For example, our small organization now has 6,800 followers on twitter. But that took SIX YEARS to build! Why would Steemit (and the other entry points to the Steem blockchain) be any different? So thank you for encouraging people with this community building approach!
Bright Blessings to you!
