Heard you mention that in one of your videos, and actually you @jerrybanfield are the reason I finally decided to jump into Steemit! I was a bit surprised to learn you had such success on Steemit fairly quick, but assumed that's because you already had a strong network before you arrived here. That, plus coming in with a bunch of Steem power helps too. Not saying you don't deserve every penny you earn, because I can see you give 110% to consistently put out awesome content 😄 Trying to follow in your footsteps here, but will definitely be taking things slower. It's ok though, I'm here like you are for the long term!
