Hello great and courageous steemians

I sincerely acknowledge the brains behind this platform called steemit that we all are enjoying today.
I am also grateful to @habercitr the Admin and founder of this unique community #Steem-Activity-Club and to the man who is doing a great job in his own capacity to promoting steemit @pygmalion34 your work here is volume I appreciate you sir. I also acknowledge all members of this community we're in the right place.

MY CONTACT WITH STEEMIT

Honestly I know nothing about cryptocurrency nor blogging I only hear them but I don't understand what it's all about when friends talk about them I will just conclude it's a scam not until the last week of January,2021 When my country just eased the lockdown due to the #coronavirus that asked my friend @smartcliff if he knows any reliable online business he jokingly said to me join #steemit I asked him how much is the registration fee he said 0$ I confused he told me there is no fee I immediately signed up because I had no cash to pay he told me more about the platform I was encouraged.

MY FIRST TWO MONTHS ON STEEMIT

It was not an easy task for me to understand how to be a good steemian NOT to talk about becoming successful I sort for attention from my friends to guide me on how to use the platform but we are all students in university we had limited time to be together and I saw my constant calling on them wasn't a good way I decided to call it a stop that was after my introduction post and I lacked what to post how to excel I lack I decided to sale my 1.9SBD which was my reward from the introduction post with cash I finally believed that the platform pays but all I tired writing wasn't paying. Most of my posts were 0 cent so frustrating that I went ahead deleting those posts with 0 cents I was ashamed that I was not making any positive impact.

WHAT SUSTAINED MY STAY ON STEEMIT

My substance on steemit came from the words of encouragement from people like @bright-obias and going through the posts of big earnings I saw there was a time when they also had very low rewards and upvotes so after deep consideration and reading posts here I found out a secret to achieving a kind of success which I will also want those passing through same challenges to try if it worked for me I believe it can also work for others too.
1. Follow successful steemians
2. Choose about 10 to 20 of such people
3 Read their posts daily and understand their views
4️. Comment meaningful on their posts daily
5. After one fully week any of those people who didn't reward you for commenting on their posts remove such a one from your target list
while doing this you should know that you want to learn how the system works

From among them you can pick a mentor

6. Maintain the community that works for you and build relationship, influence and votes will come

you have to discover the strategy that works for you.

my success so far

Though I have not been able to make a enough money but I can boldly say that I have achieved a big success the knowledge and mentorship of @dobartim via the #steemschools and wonderful posts from @cryptokannon in the #newcomers community.
Within last than four 4 months I have;

1. Written over 400 posts
2. Completed achievements 1,2and3 and by tomorrow I will working on my achievement 4 post.
3. I have participated in contests and I have won one and I have organised a contest through the sponsorship of @dobartim and @steemitwarrior
4. I have made good and great friends and I have learnt so much on steemit interacting with people from all corners of the world.

what more shall I say other than say

1️⃣ there is success in steemit.

2️⃣ upvote is not compulsory

3️⃣ courage and persistence is all you need in addition to quality content
