Quote of the Day #161: Be A Voice, Not An Echo!
Everybody wants to be heard!
There is a tremendously large amount of noise these days. The things we hear, see, read and come across can be overwhelming if we let it get to us. Technology has brought us instant consumption of news & communication at our fingertips and as a result the people are echoing everyone else and are trying to talk louder than the next guy to be heard and to be acknowledged.
The point of trying to overshadow all others is an unwinnable game and you will fail every time. The better thing to do is come around with a unique spin, and differing perspective and something worthy of people’s limited attentions. Without standing out from the crowded chaos, you will get lost and buried in no time flat.
First and foremost, make your voice mean something to yourself, make it worth something to others will generously spend their precious time to check out and fit into the hectic schedules that exist all over the place. Don’t echo others, come up with your own take on things, and share that with the world.

Yeah, the noise level is overwhelming at times. Have humans morphed into parrots? :D
A solution which works for me is finding your center and turn up the 'muse'.

That is so true and steemit encourages that!
