@bristema94 we have so many things in common! I'm really looking forward to reading your posts and getting to know you more on here. Steemit thus far has truly been a game changer for me. I too have been looking for a medium to share my heart with the world, and this has certainly felt like IT (at least for now!).
I really enjoy your vibe and I'd really like to see you succeed! When I first got on here, I spent a lot of time researching what works. Then on December 1st I started to put those principles into action. This is what I have learned thus far:
- Focus 90% of your time on reading other's posts and leaving authentic, well thought comments. If you don't do this, your channel simply won't grow and your beautiful work will go unacknowledged. This probably won't be necessary forever, but until you have a decent following, this is important.
- Focus the rest of your time on creating the best possible content you can create. Obviously, when people come to your channel, you want to make them remember you. The best way to do that is by creating high quality posts all the time. Less is more. I usually do about 4-5 posts per week (unless I'm also participating in photo or writing challenges)

I hope that helps! I have followed you :) Wishing you the very best!
PS: I'd love to hear your thoughts about my recent post: Want To Get What You Don't Already Have? The Art Of Compersion Will Get You There!
Hello @axios, wow, this is such a lovely comment.. made my heart smile :) I can't believe how friendly so many people are on here. This social experiment is truly encouraging the best out of people. I'm loving it so far! I hope I won't get overwhelmed, so I will take one step at a time, absorbing everything like the sponge that I am!
I'm so excited that you resonate with my words, and thank you for the enthusiasm.. I am sure you will like my articles. I will indeed focus on creating excellent content, I am a perfectionist so I either do a proper job or don't do nothing at all! Haha. And yes, joining communities and actively participating on people's blogs, especially those I resonate with! I will check your article and leave a comment for sure.
Exciting times, youhuu! Looovely to connect with you. Best wishes my friend!
WOoO! Truly is :) I just saw your comment and responded there. Cheers!
@axios those are beautiful and useful advice. Welcome @bristena94 it won't be an easy climb but it will be worth it
