Stay Ahead Of The Crowd

in #life6 years ago (edited)

It is a world of hustle and bustle, getting things done as fast as possible. Sometimes you need to observe things and not rush out to do things. You need to take time to relax and you most likely come up with new plans better than what you are currently doing.

Routine brings stagnation and stagnation is slow death. Always look around and focus on how you can improve on whatever you are doing now. Observe things around and notice what the successful people especially are doing. Doing what the majority are doing will only get you mediocre results.

An observer and action taker will most of the time do better than someone with a burst of energy not properly directed. Like the analogy of two men with given axes to cut down trees. One set out using all his energy with a blunt axe and started cutting with all his strenght.

But the observer 'observed' axe and determined he will need to sharpen his tool to be more efficient and effective. he did sharpen his axe and his task less daunting and faster than the other person that just set out without observing his tools.

To take time out to observe what you have been doing, what others are doing and research different tools and strategies that can make you more productive. That is a sure way of staying ahead of the crowd. The crowd rarely wins and when they do, it is not always big. So stay ahead of them.

I was summoned by golddeejay. I have done their bidding and now I will vanish…
woosh


P.S. If you or anyone you know has been a victim of @grumpycat please know that he has been harming people throughout Sōsharumedia (ソーシャルメディア). Stealing the service that I (and other bots) have provided them and hiding behind a facade of stopping bid bot abuse which he clearly has no interest in.
Sneaky Ninja is a very responsible bot, working directly with steemcleaners, actively pursuing spam and abuse on our platform. If you would like to see what steps Sneaky Ninja has taken to fight bid bot abuse see this post and this post. Also know that I am working daily on other solutions.
If you would like to know my personal take on bid bot abuse and why I do not agree with the 3.5 day rule, see this post

Grumpycat is a villain that must be stopped to protect our freedoms here on steemit!
