RE: The Meaning of Steem
thanks for your very impassioned reply. The more free I am the less time I have for bullshit in my life. I have mostly cut out the noise by now. It sounds like you're at a point of doing the same. Sometimes we just need to be presented with an option. I realized I needed to find my tribe, those people who inspire me. I keep looking, and finding them....I feel that from each person I can learn.....but the ones who are simlar to me, and who are better in the compassion dept. those are the leaders.
Indeed.
I make no excuses for myself. I chased money for a long time, which resulted in me leaving Steemit for a while. I regretted that.
If anything, I learnt that if you start on a business with the sole will to want to make money, it's just going to be a rocky foundation.
But all I have to say to the sleazy, bad guys there... come on man... just come on. You may be the no.1 salesman or making a ton of money, but come on man... stop stretching it to the lowest common denominator just to prey on the little guys and leading them on to nothing. What's the MOST common lowest denominator? "no excuses. you're responsible for all your whole life. you didn't put in enough effort. results differ blah blah blah it's not my fault."
Come on...
I started 4 businesses and failed at all them. I instantly gave up. Then I found Altucher who writes. I realized I don't have to start a business. My ideas are my "business".
Altucher is amazing. Check out Mark Manson and Ryan Holiday too. They're the few and rare legit guys.
I love Altucher . She is from Carnegie Mellon University.
I am curious about the "noise" that you talk about. Emotional intelligence in business is key. With our interaction with technology, I find it that our EQ has gone down.
