RE: How to think about Steemit.com and navigate it...Lessons from "New rules for the new economy by Kevin Kelly"

in #economy7 years ago

Well I must first say that your article was well put together with good research. I'm always inspired by people who thinks about the world's future and where its heading. Life in the human world is indeed evolving at a more faster pace than one can imagine and the 100 years old way of earning a great income no longer fits in this fast pace technological world.
The illiterate of the 21 century will not be those who can read and right but those who are willing to unlearn then relearn in times of change.
I do agree with you 100% about networking and the power of peoples attention being the most crucial things in economy . People are now just beginning to understand that education is not the key but learning about what ever is working now or whatever can create a better future for you and your family.
I really have a few posts you might be interested in. There are Authors like Bob Practor who writes the book "You were born rich" and think and grow rich by Napoleon Hill which teaches us how to use your full potential. However one of the main issues with some people who are not increasing and looking into networking is that they have a mental block against technological advancement of communications, networking and human advancement.
The problems that steemit and bitcoin solves is way the way people interact with each other and that teaches people that together we are stronger and together we can create a world where poverty can be eradicated. You have really opened up a door in my mind. Thanks again i will definately keeping your posts closer.

Hi John ! Great comment . Napoleon Hill is one of those often quoted that it must be good. Bob Practor I have not read it yet but going on my list! My favourite of that era is Dale Carnegie (How to make friends and influence people) which is still hugely applicable today!

Another concept of Kevin Kelly is techno - literacy which I can't find a good explanation or description of. I agree with the premise of the concept and that it will be important but how does one become techno literate ? I don't buy the argument that everyone needs to learn to program, that's like asking a driver to refurbish their engine to be able to use it. I'll follow and check out your posts for sure!

Yes how to win friends and influence people is a great book and those concepts will never change. We really need to talk more often seen like your on the right path.
