RE: The imperfect pursuit of excellence
That is absolutely true. I still have no idea what I’m doing, 2.5 years in. 😁
But seriously, all the apps and communities are definitely part of the answer. If you love gaming, or being active or doing something for the environment, etc., you can find something meaningful here. And it is not just about hoping to catch a rising star and make a boatload of money. That’s a nice dream, but it doesn’t fuel heart, mind and soul. And for a lot of people it’s like playing the lottery — no real commitment to the structure and outcome and promise of it for the masses. It’s a “what can I get out of this” mentality. And the reason so many left when the price dropped.
Very few percentage-wise are going to be able to retire off Steem with some kind of miracle hail Mary, but I am pretty confident it will still be life changing for thousands as a revenue stream and perhaps a backup plan.
Once people start actually doing what they love to do here daily, the earning will take less focus but still keep ticking over in numerous ways. Heart and mind requires more than outcome, it has to be part of the journey.
Precisely said! - It’s more important for me to be at the beginning of the path and go together - the income is in my second place.
many get the hierarchy in the the wrong order and focus too early on the income and forget that they need to first build a foundation.
