Behavioral pattern

I attended an event sometime ago. It was for children's day, I'm not really sure I can tell why I was there but what amazed me was the way the program was organised. The fact that kids were in control of everything the adults used to control for the entire day. Just that day though before everything got out of control. They all assumed the same position and job description at the end of the day.

It is an organizational habit for a company to strengthen the arms of its staff by performing a type of job rotation where every employee gets to work at all positions within it. This will make all the employees savvy in almost all the job positions available. Not just that, the employee will also develop more skills both to the advantage of the company, and most of all to the self.

Even some homes are not counted out of this pattern of behavior as there is a time when the couple might decide to switch roles, for example, maybe dad takes the kids to school today, and mom makes breakfast, or dad makes breakfast and mom takes the kids to school. Either ways, the roles switch to lighten up the partners burden.

So I was wondering, what if the steemit platform was set in a way that huge vests are allocated to users based on some metrics that are designed to be beneficial to both the company and the users rather than leaving only the investors with huge vests. For example, based on some metrics, every user is entitled to a certain huge amount of vests for a particular period of time. I.e, every user has a fair chance at becoming a whale for a specific period of time.

Some minnows are honestly not prepared to become whales given the chance. I believe being a whale should not be only about the size of the wallet, but also about the track record of contribution to the growth and development of the ecosystem. I think a whale should be more concerned about their investment such that it urges them to be versatile in the knowledge about the entire ecosystem and support it's goals and values. I feel being a whale is more than having a large upvote.

Definitely every human aspires to go higher than they were before, so it is highly unlikely that this kind of event will ever take place on this platform. Every system has a necessary learning curve and it is highly adviceable that steps are not being skipped, because how high someone can get is perpendicular to the rate at which the person can fall.

If the baton were to be passed on to you, are you ready to take over and change your status for life? Or are you going to be just greedy and ruin the entire system?

If your whale status were to be reversed according your performance on the system, will you be doing anything better than you're doing now?

If the steem ecosystem was a round table where whatever you've given (community wise) comes back to you, will you have a different approach?

Coupled with the info graph above, I love the way steem brings about collaboration of effort and intellects, from different spheres of the world in the realization of a common goal. In my entire time on steemit, among other things that make me brag about steem, this post has to be the top of my list. https://steemit.com/steem/@timcliff/it-s-time-to-start-paying-attention-to-steem, I love how timcliff highlighted not only the good things but the the bad that weve been able to overcome and are still overcoming presently. This has inadvertently raised my hopes and bragging rights. Thank you for this one timcliff.

If you missed out, there was a steem blast parade that happened yesterday, you can check out this post here to just to put a few smiles on your face.

Yesterday there were thousands of people talking about Steem all over the internet. It was incredible! The individual impacts that all of these interactions had are countless and immeasurable, but there were certainly quite a few highlights....Hey head over to the post yourself right here
