Although compared to many people here on Steem this Achievement isn't that big, but for me it is. I accomplished the amount of 1000 SP today. Unlike a lot of people I didn't invested in Steem in any way (I also didn't powerdown or paid out a cent). That I didn't invest in Steem had nothing to do with not willing or not being able but for me it was a test to see if (like many newbies I think) it is possible at all to gather a SP amount just by posting and bonding with others, here's the proof that it is possible.
How did I managed?
I managed to gather this amount of SP by writing posts, mostly about music, and by curation. Some of my posts where discovered by curation initiatives like
@curie , which I am very thankful to. And by a lot of Fellow Steemians which supported me over time by delegation Steem ( 
@steevc) or by commenting and upvoting my posts, to many to mention but all great people.
This post on it's own should be a post that can be shared with potential new people on the blockchain to show them it will work, it is all about engagment.
So for all those 'newcomers' it is possible :) Stay connected and Steem on
Have a great day
