I joined steemit about 4 months ago and it was love at first sight. Ever Since, I have always thought of ways of making Steemit greater and prosperous. But with little steempower as a minnow there was very little that I could have done. The only thing as a minnow that I could have done for Steemit was to promote it to my friends and remain committed this platform. And I have done it to best of abilities. I have encouraged 10 of my friends to open a steemit account and I always kept believing in this platform.
So my friends,
In case you haven't noticed I just got a Steem Delegation of 600 for 6 weeks using minnow booster...
And I want to share with you how I feel and what are my plans about it.
How do I feel?
I currently have 305 steempower of my own and plus 600 steempower delegated to me courtesy of using miowboaster, this makes a total steem power of 905. My net upvote worth is 0.27$ but of course it can vary depending upon steem price.
It indeed feels great to have some steempower under my belt. As a newbie on steemit I always dreamt of having 1000 steempower. Now as I have almost achieved it(although indirectly using delegation), I feel above moon.
Note: If you want to know more about leasing steempower using minnowboaster, I suggest you read this great tutorial by .

Now comes the question.
What I am going to do with it?
Now that I have this large ( as per minnow's standards) steempower delegated to me and I feel that I am obliged to do much more for steemit.
With great power comes a greater responsibility.
So here is my plan of action.
1. Welcoming the Newbies
There are so many newbies coming on steemit everyday and some are creating really amazing contents and their by adding great value to this platform. But these amazing newbies are prone to get disheartened due to lack of appreciation, courtesy of their low reputation score. As a believer in steemit, it is always painful for me to see a potential future amazing steemian quitting the platform.
So every day, I will browse the #introduceyourself tag looking for amazing and deserving newbies for one hour at least.
→ I will upvote and reesteem their #introduceyourself post. I will also give them a follow so that I can keep track of their steemit journey and help them along the way, by every possible mean at my disposal.
→ I will also get upvote for the deserving newbie posts from account using Peace, Abundance , Liberty discord account.
The @minnowsupport project at http://minnowsupportproject.org/ consistently helps members in Discord to collaborate on upvotes and get feedback which can be more important for improving a project than money. @aggroed and @ausbitbank founded this project which today has helped thousands of authors earn upvotes on hundreds of thousands of posts!

I really hope that my tiny effort will help to plug the efflux of newbies from this platform.

Sorting through so many newbie posts can a tedious and time consuming task. So this is the part where You come into play. I am definitely going to need your help with this.
If you happen to comeby a post of some amazing newbie undervalued steemian, feel free to drop a link in my comments section. I will grateful and generous ofcourse.
2. Upvote Thoughtful Comments
As much as I like to reading good post and commenting on them, I also seriously love to see people reading/understanding and leaving thoughtful comments on my post. It creates such an amazing family like atmosphere. So I will be upvoting all the thoughtful comments on my posts, even if they are contradictory.
Warning: I won't hesitate to flag the spam comments. So if you unsure about what counts as a spam comment, I suggest you read recent post. Here is the link:

3. Get More Delegation
I will also continuously keep trying to get more steem delegation to in order to increase the effectiveness of my plan. So if someone is interested in leasing some steem power to me, he is most welcome and I assure that the delegation will be put for good use.
If you are a Whale or Dolphin, you might be laughing at this and thinking what this puny effort/plan of mine will do. But trust me if anything that I have come to learn in my life, it is that
Small deeds of good will and courtesy by ordinary folks(like me) really make difference in the long run.
So instead of making fun of me or of my puny effort/plan, I suggest you upvote this post. A reesteem will also be highly appreciated.
That will be all for today.
