Hi. As others have said, it will be nice if you decide to stick around. We all know Steemit isn't the easiest of places to get used to but with a good amount of work put in, there's bound to be the benefits.
I joined just over 30 days ago and I've been having some decent success. My first three days on here tho were spent consuming every information I could on best practices, what does well, how best to vote, and so on.
I should tell you that I became overwhelmed with everything but I kept at it (it was not easy but I did). You're only a google search away from all the answers you need and in case you can't find any answerable by searching, make a post about it (politely) and watch the amazing community come to your aid.
I did this a few times in my very early days and most of the comments I received were what put me on the right track.
I wrote about my experience and If you don't mind, you could read it here

I will be following you right away and sincerely hope to see you make progress. Do not give up!
