RE: The Tino Take - A Dystopian 2022 - Take 98

Thanks Matt! Thank you very much for taking the time to listen; you know by now how much I appreciate that! The "Iron Sharpens Iron" proverb has always been a wisdom that I enjoy. And in our case, it's true and valuable. I do, however, remember a friend who used to express that quote to me often until one day I asked him what we were seeking to accomplish with our friendship. The sharpening of Iron leads to the forging of a Sword, which creates a prepared Warrior. He repeated that "Iron Sharpens Iron" is what we are doing; and I said, "When iron sharpens iron for too long, eventually the iron will be grind down to nothing!" This is not the case with us, because we are actively engaged in creating something with our strengths, but I wanted to share that memory with you!

Sort:  

That is true, oversharpening any edge could make it worse and it has lost its effectiveness, unless the edge is melted, folded and reforged. When sharpening the axe wielder knows the right amount of sharpening to get the most out of the axe. As we balance our talents in tech, crypto, creativity, and influence we will build great things for the greater good in a opensource and for the all.

Wonderful insights, my friend; absolutely wonderful wise words! 🙏
