Welcome to Steemit! If you stick with it, I think that you will do very well, here. The folks here really value good writing and original content, and you exhibit both. I thoroughly enjoyed your introductory post as well as your follow up, 4 Ways to Finish the Year Strong. Enough so that you were my hands-down choice for Hive account@misslasvegas' Spread-The-Love Contest aimed at highlighting new Steemians who show promise on the platform.

I chose you because my initial impression is that will bring a positive message to people, and you seem to have the ability to deliver that message in a very readable format that speaks to the heart and appeals to the mind. You've gained a follow, and I look forward to reading your future posts! If you have any questions about how this place works, don't hesitate to ask. I probably won't know the answer, but I can help you find someone that does.
