I have learnt a lot in the 6 weeks I have been here. I had a slow start, not knowing Steemit was all about, and what I was getting myself in for. But now, six weeks in, I am on the brink of having gained 300 followers, and in a few hours time will recieve a reward from this post, which will almost double my account value. That is AMAZING!!
I am truly humbled and thankful to every one of you who have upvoted, commented or resteemed my posts.
My profile:
According to my profile I have almost 300 posts. I know it's way less than some, but for me that is an achievement on its own. I'm not one to put myself out there and interact with people I haven't met, but somehow Steemit and the Steemit community has made me feel really welcome and at ease.
I have also had some really enlightening conversations around a ramge of topics, and some good debates as well. Throughout the experience the level of respect between Steemians has been fantastic.
The best part of Steemit: Community
That's right!! The community spirit I have experienced here, epsecially having been inducted into #teamaustralia, is like no other social platform I have seen. Even when I haven't had much material to post, I have been able to interact and enjoy some friendly banter in the posts of others. That has made Steemit so much more enjoyable.
If there is one piece of advice I could give to anyone just starting, it would be "Engage, get involved, and just be you. You'll learn as you go, just GO!!
Full Steem ahead!!! Thank you all!!
