How to get out of Bronze

I think one of the hardest challenges for all Star craft players was the initial learning curve, everyone has experienced it. Huk, Idra, MC, they were all noobies once, just like many "forever bronze" players today.

So how do people get out of Bronze?

Most people are in Bronze for one reason:

MACRO.

When you play in Bronze, you aren't looking to use some uber micro strategy you just watched on GSL, you just want to macro.

Follow three steps to get out of Bronze (I assure you this will get you out of Bronze):
Never get supply blocked
Never float your minerals
Expand

Since you can interpret these three steps in one hundred different ways, I'll put it more simply.

Your bronze opponents will 99% of the time supply block themselves sometime in the game, if you never supply block yourself you are automatically given an advantage over them.

If you build more production facilites, 3 for each saturated expo, your minerals will never be too high, and since you aren't supply blocked, you are always making units.

Expand when you can defend an expansion.If I see someone FE, I think to myself, I can expand now since he won't have units out for another few minutes, OR I can punish him for expanding so quick and make him cancel it, to stop any kind of economic advantage.

I am only a platinum player, a few days ago I recently just got back into the game, I had to retrain myself to do all these things again and I want to share my thoughts with you.
