You remind me of when I first started with Steem a little over a year ago. It helps not to focus on the results you want but rather what you want to contribute and how you want to participate. I recently moved from the Steem platform to the HIVE platform and have started all over again to share my ideas, create my brand and engage with the community and curate what is posted. I try to be consistent but find it difficult to post when I don't have a message I want to share. But even on those days I enjoy reading what others have posted and commenting on them.
