I have been on Steemit over a year now and for that time I have invested and dedicated hours and hours to content, to curation, to engagement and to networking. I have focused my efforts on those less fortunate to me and I hope I have provided a lot of value across a broad spectrum.

One thing I have not done much of is looking up. Looking at the accounts with more than me to try and find support. I haven’t spent much time fostering relationships with those that could help me, instead I focused my time on those I could help.

Now is such an awesome time to be on Steemit. The prices and low, new account registration is down, daily average postings is down. Now is a great time to be spotted and to find support. Now is time to be growing an awesome ‘core’ of steem users.

The reality is I have been extremely lucky and have had continuous support for a long time now from two awesome dudes by way of regular upvotes. @nanzo-scoop and @fulltimegeek. Guys you rock, you have kept my posts afloat and I really appreciate all the help you have given me. Thank you so so much, I really owe you.

To some this might sound greedy, but I am looking for more regular support. I am calling to the accounts above me, the accounts with larger SP to help out. Right now I am looking up. I know most of my followers are small accounts, and although I apricate all the votes I get, most are worth less than the dust and that make it hard to grow. But if I could get more, then I could really do more.

Asking for help like this is a little difficult, but if you don’t ask you won’t get. I feel like I have my hand out begging right now. Could I post more to earn more? Well yes, but why put out shit content when I could try get more people to support my good content. I have stopped with a lot of the data posts because with the down turn and negative trend, they were not helping to motivate people.

What have I done with the support so far? What will I do if I get more support?

Well to start with, I am now a small dolphin. I don’t power down and I have a long term vision. In a perfect world, my plan is not to power down for the next 3 years, and if I can stretch that to 5 it would be better. Obviously if something disastrous happens in my life I might have to dip in, but at the moment I’m good with a long term plan.

I have an unpurchased rep of 68, and in the UA rankings I am currently 109

I run and will continue to run and sponsort contents that focus on long term thinking and engagement. The Indonesian league of Engagement and the Redfish Power Up League are popular weekly posts.

I delegate and will continue to delegate SP free to individuals and projects.

I engage heavily on the platform, often running direct outreaches just offering help and assistance. (@nanzo-scoop I still laugh at the outreach I did when I sent the message to your alt account not know it was you)

I am partner in @steemcommunity witness server with @abh12345 and the @c-squared curation team.

What am I looking for?

Well I am looking for you to consider voting regularly on my posts. I post 3 to 5 times a week. On the rare occasion I post more, but only if there is something worth saying. Because I delegate to others for free, my vote worth is not that of a small dolphin. I try never leave dust votes, but by doing this, my voting power often drops and I have to stop voting to power back up. I want to build my account faster so these limitations do not get in the way of me helping others. Lol in a perfect world, I would like to double the size of my account by the new year. Bit of a mountain, but with the right support, it would actually be possible. If I double my size I can double the support I give.

So if you would like to help, then please consider adding me as a regular to your voting

Thank you for reading

Paula
