RE: Voting issues in the community: Sndbox Summer Camp Psychology – Task 1
Well what can I say, my father once said that the true nature of a man is not known unless he or she is affected monetary gains
Is steemit community driven or emotionally driven, I think it has to do with the both because as much as I've sighted selfish people with no future ambitions for the blockchain, I can also say it's filled with individuals who feel the need to enrich and maintain the platform.
However as individuals we must define ourselves by being the right kinda of people despite our desires to become rich
Your father is wise indeed.
Yes, these individuals are what keep this alive in my opinion, and we need more of this to sustain the growth we all want for this platform.
Wanting to be rich doesn't mean being the wrong kind of people, in fact, in order to be rich and maintain that wealth, people need to take smart choices for the long term.
I want to go deeper into the last point.
I absolutely agree with this. To define ourselves as the "right kinda people," all we need to do is understand and connect with the idea of long term results and lasting wealth, not just temporary wealth from short-term wins.
We also have to understand that short-term results can't be expected. It almost feels like a grind, you know? This "difficult road" of sticking things out for the future and letting go of the things that pull us towards short-term exploits.
Honestly, it kind of excites me, these early days are when we can all have the biggest impact in shaping the community and the platform to produce legitimate value for it's users.
You are totally right with this:
This is why its important to have a strong foundation about what is this community all about.
I really liked your comment and looking forward to check your first post! ;)
