Thats a great goal! And you are totally right with everything u said.. Now is the best time for plankton to get noticed because there are so few people on the platform and so few good posts being produced. And u nailed it with time thing.. most people spend hours on fb or twitter daily for free, but when they come to steemit and make ten cents on a post they are pissed, I don't understand why? that is ten cents more than you ever made on your entire history of all other social medias combined!
I am glad you are here and have a good mindset about steemit :)
