25k Steem Powered Up!
I hit a small little goal I set for myself...That about a year or so ago, never in a million years thought I would achieve...
First, a short back story!
I joined Steem in December 2017, right at the height of the crypto craze. Steem was hovering around 4-5 bucks each and still kept climbing. The price to me, was a steal because of what Steem represented. Massive, unheard of, opportunity!
I dove in and started soaking up as much information about the blockchain as I could...
I then wrote the 5-500-5000 Formula in January of 2018. The goal was simple...
1. Interact and Engage with 5 people everyday
2. Reach 500 Followers
3. Get my Steem Power to 5000.
Those were my goals for 2018....
I hit 500 followers in April of 2018, and then 5000 Steem Power about a year ago (October / November 2018)
I would have never thought that could be possible but I stuck to my formula and kept building...Every single day.
Since then, I've gone on to....
663 posts on 676 days of being on the blockchain....And 8650 comments as well.
So an average of 12.80 comments / engagement a day....And almost a post a day since I started....
And here we are!
25,000 Steem Power!!!!
Half way to Orca-Hood :)
And I really didn't do anything to be honest, that pushed my limits. Of course, super cheap Steem prices helped :)
But I never spent a penny more than I could afford to lose. I dollar cost averaged every week and just created content. Almost daily!
That attracted the support of some of the most amazing people I have met in my online career - The Steemians that make this place so special. I was supported with delegation from @NathanMars and @CaptainBob , your belief and support in both @SteemSavvy & @ClickTrackProfit meant so much! As well as upvotes from the awesome people here on Steem. Because I could have never reached this without the support and votes from everyone that has ever read my posts or engaged with me.
Thank you so much! I am beyond grateful!
So instead of pretending this is some Oscar speech, I'll leave you with this...
Create! Engage! Network!
This is the biggest opportunity I have ever been a part of and now is the time to take advantage of all the potential here...When the 'doubters' show up, this is when the foundations are laid.
On to the next 25k :)

Thanks so much :) Appreciate it.
Congrats bro. When Steem moons, you can now afford membership in the same golf resort as me. Keep grinding though, you need to roll up in at least a Bentley or we're turning you away.
I can't see how you included the words moon and steem in the same comment...lol

ha ha ha yeah man. i’m buying coffee for everyone!!!
Thanks for sharing your success story, Jon. Means a lot to me and fellow CTPers. You are a true leader, and I am so grateful to have been following on behind, albeit at a distance.
You joined Steem, spent time trialing and researching this platform, then realigned the ClickTrackProfit website and the CTP community, all within two years. Massive effort, my friend, tyvm for introducing us to this wonderful place.
To me, CTP is about learning as you grow, and making money along the way. SteemIt and y/our tribe CTPtalk brings that earning to a much higher level.
View from afar: awesome sauce ahead!
thanks man. that’s why i’m so fired up to bring ctp people to steem. it’s such an amazing opportunity to grow.
This is so great Jon! I'm happy for you for reaching this milestone! What do you think, will you be an orca by the time SMTs will be on the mainnet? :) Or is that too soon?
Although not as impressive, I'm on my way to 10K. :)
Took me about a year to get 20k steem power. but there was some pretty good growth because of the price. we will see. thanks man :)
Yup, but 25k SP should help with curation rewards after EIP...
Hope so...Havent really seen much of an improvement with curation rewards honestly...It's right around the same. And I'm at around the same amount of upvotes I do daily....Weird.
I have, it's noticeable. But I did change my voting pattern a bit, with more SP I can spread the vote to more posts at a lower weight. I also gave up on many auto-votes and tweaked the rest. Manual curation rocks... but it's time consuming!
A very big congratulations to you @jongolson, you have had a great journey, and you have inspired a lot of people along the way, and great advice you shared on how to climb that ladder, applicable both to Steem and CTPtalk, keep up your great work and stay awesome.
This is Awesome Content, and it has been manually curated with an upvote of 60% from @thisisawesome and it will be included in our Awesome Daily report in category Awesome CTP Curation for more visibility.
The goal of this project is to "highlight Awesome Content, and growing the Steem ecosystem by rewarding it".
Thanks man. Yup this is only goal number 1....Next one, 50k ;)
Thanks @jongolson, stay awesome and Steem on!
Those are some great achievements and tbh nice ideas indeed to make the Steem journey much more effective and exciting as well. All the best for the next step 50k ;)
Thanks very much. Yup. Not slowing down now :)
Fantastic Jon,
When I read a post like this from you, and others, it makes me realize what I can do, and how well I am doing in not even 3 month yet.
Thank you!
Bradley
For sure man...I didn't do anything 'extraordinary' at all...Just showed up, bought the dip :)
Congratulations on achieving your milestone! Thank you for sharing us a lot of valuable tips. May you have a great day ahead!
