CONTEST: Win Steem Basic Income and my sponsorship!
Steem Basic Income is the awesome project that will reward you by assuring you receive a basic income for each of your posts. No more frustrations! As a new member of this project, I would like to sponsor a Steemian and have created a contest. Who will be the first to be sponsored by me?!
First things first: What is Steem Basic Income?
Steem Basic Income is a social experiment to bring a basic income to as many Steemians as possible. Members join by sponsoring others into the program. Steem Basic Income is delivered through providing regular upvotes to member content.

I often read Steemians whining and complaining about not getting any upvotes, where they spent hours and hours writing and crafting their posts.
Honestly, I understand the frustration and can relate to that but I am the kind of person that likes looking for solutions rather than just spend time complaining. I have been testing a variety of solutions to make my own posts more rewarded and how to help the Steemians I follow too. After 4 months of being on Steemit, I have now stumbled upon what seems to be the most effective solution: Steem Basic Income!
This interview gave me a great insight:

Inspiring video by @josephsavage: the mind behind the project
So why have I chosen Steem Basic Income as a great solution? I invite you to watch this video and just let yourself understand how cool this project is and why you really want to join as a member:

Let’s make Steemit a place where everyone can have a base level support.’’
There is so much greed on Steemit and if we want this community to thrive, it has to be done in a healthier way. With Steem Basic Income, by sharing with other members Steemians empower themselves and other members of the community. This is the kind of project that gives me faith in humanity!
And so why the contest?!
Ok, so let’s say you’ve read the above and the links (hopefully). Now you are ready to get sponsored by me! And why would you want that??!!
I am a member of SBI thanks to @steemquebec that sponsored me, thank you! And I just delegated 100 SP to @steembasicincome. Therefore, I have 1 share, received 5 bonus shares from delegation of 100 SP, and will be upvoting @steembasicincome regularly, meaning I could potentially receive upvote weight equivalent to 10 shares instead of only 1!

dope contest idea. if the SBI experiment succeeds it would change the game
Indeed! I think it would be one of the best projects on Steemit long-term! Thanks :)
My opinion of what makes a community thrive:
A community should be a safe place for young, old and all living things residing there. Respect and concern for all is a great attribute for the vibe of a thriving community.
New members need to be made welcome and helped to establish a place in the community.
The leaders must have the community’s best interests regulated and held to the highest standards.
Excellent opinion @redheadpei. Thank you for entering the contest. Good luck! :)
Thanks @jessicapixie. ☘️
It's incredible that you do ...
Almost every day I create a blog about the community, maybe you can see my blog.
I think that being a developing community is having a community that does no harm at all. Your free time can be used for various activities with friends of the community. And also through these hobbies, ideas, and interests can be the beginning of the formation of the community. The community is not a showpiece, but as a forum to meet and discuss the passion for knowledge to grow. Therefore, a community is advised to have progress so that the benefits of its existence are felt by the wider community.
Really interesting comment @suheri! Thanks for your entry and good luck! :) I'll check out your blog.
Thank Miss @jessicapixie
Hi Jessica and fellow steemians,
I believe for a community to thrive they have to have shared cherished values that is within a sustainable and potentially prosperous economy, with common goals. There also has to be a consensus of members in planning and determining a future of the community. Within this community each member has to be able to capitalize on their personal core assets and contribute to the community. With that said, flexibility and understanding of other peoples opinions will also enable cooperation and growth and finally there needs to be commitment and fortitude in facing the future.
Amazing answer @jgnkelly! Thanks so much for your contest entry and good luck to you :)
la respuesta debe ser en pocas palabras? quisiera dar mi opinión con algunas fotos en un post, si no las dejare en pocas palabras =) !
Hola @redencion123! Tu dejate llevar por lo que te inspire! Obvio, tampoco un libro pero si quieres poner fotos también, no hay problema ;)
@jessicapixie, look at you! So awesome that you have got involved in this. Just what steemit needs! I've got a list of things to write about on steemit and right at the top is community! This couldn't have come at a better time. For me community is about man things, potentially the most important being: contribution. In short, as much as a community needs leaders, and people to look to for guidance, it also needs contribution from as many members of that community as possible in order to not only survive, but thrive. Some people start communities and then want to stand in the lime light and bask in the glory of having founded something. In my eyes that is not the TRUE essence of community. A group of people coming together to contribute towards a common cause, with equal contributions, equal weight to those contributions and equal value. That's what makes a community thrive.
Thanks @yasminep, what a beautiful comment! Good luck :D Let's make Steemit thrive!
When you said community it is understood that it is a group of people.
We belong in this steemit community and we have same interests and goals. In order to thrive we must help each other. Community will be flourished if no one left behind. It's like plants which I consider a newbie in this community when you water it regularly it will grow strong and healthy. We should not take for granted to all the newbies here instead we will assist them all the way in their journey here so they would feel they belong in this community. That is why there are mentors here to mentor them. I just hope that mentors don't have favoritism. In this community we really did our best to be known and somehow obtain achievements but most of our posts are undervalued because some of the mentors give much attention to those who already curied.
Just like sir Terry Ajayi said, "Anyone has something to offer." Maybe their time to shine hasn't come yet, no matter what happened we should not stop supporting each other instead inspired them by lending a hand. This community will not thrive when greediness and selfishness only prevail.
This photo is best described to make the community thrive.

¡Educación! Un pueblo ignorante es instrumento ciego de su propia destrucción, lo dijo El Libertador de Venezuela hace casi 200 años.
Para que una comunidad prospere, cada integrante debe comprometerse con su crecimiento personal, formarse como ciudadano útil para sumar destrezas que respalden el crecimiento de esta. Se debe dejar de lado el individualismo y procura del propio beneficio, como único fin. Es la visión de equipo la que debe prevaler, porque es más fácil alcanzar los objetivos cuando existe la unión.
Gracias @thaishps! Porfavor haz un ''upvote'' de mi post para que considere tu entrada al concurso ;)
Oh! Lo había hecho, pero Busy.org a veces no lo suma, también he notado que sigo a personas en Steemit y en Busy no se refleja. Gracias por la observación.
Gracias a ti y buena suerte! :)
@jessicapixie tienes algún post que explique en español en qué consiste el SBI?
He estado leyendo los posts que lo explican, pero no logro entender cuál es el beneficio o la estrategia. ¿Tengo que formar parte de un trial? ¿Debo agregar la etiqueta de @steembasicincome?
Gané un patrocinio pero no sé qué debo hacer.
Te estaré eternamente agradecida
Hola @thaishps! No he encontrado una explicacion en espanol. Pero trataré de ver como puedo traducir en espanol la informacion. Te mantengo al tanto ;)
It's compactnes in the face of the problem together, but it is rarely encountered, since we have personal robots that could solve some of our basic problems (one of them is communication), here we go too busy with a smartphone each of us, without caring one another, there is the bright side, but will be an effect on the development of society, because we've been through the laws of nature, that human beings are social beings.
I think the answer most appropriate to the discussion in terms of making a developing society is to increase the sense of solidarity and cohesiveness of our fellow human beings to help each other in completing a problem, and respect each others is more important things to.
that's all from me, I hope you could gave me bright side about "life".
Let's being better together

Awesome insight @mirfaner! Thanks for your entry and good luck :)
thanks was seeing my entry :)
best regards, @mirfaner
What makes a community thrive? The answer is extremely complex yet perfectly simple: The People. We are the people. It all begins, grows, ends, flourishes, suffers, and starts anew with us, The People.
Thank you @btwbyvw! Short and sweet :) Good luck!
