RE: The Most Valuable Steemit Post Begins In Your Head - Tips To Mazimize Your Social Currency On Steemit

in #steem-help7 years ago (edited)

great post @luzcypher, this really captures the "essence" of STEEMIT, and why so many people become hooked on it and enamored by it once they really start to "get it".

Just the past few days alone, I've tried to explain STEEMIT along the lines that you've described. I believe this will now be my new "go-to" post to help people better understand what I'm talking about with STEEMIT and what makes it such a unique and special "social experiment"!

I like to call it "John Galt Island, our new City in the Virtual Sky", though I'm still not quite sure even that fully captures the "essence" I'm going for! lol

btw, resteemed too! :)

... and also, this clip just really hits the nail on the head:

When you study some of the more successful people on Steemit you'll notice that their focus is not so much on what's in it for them, they are more about what they can do for you. That's how gift economies work.

Wow @luzcypher thank you for bringing this much wisdom with this post and cheers @alexpmorris for directing my here!

Your writing and analogies were spot on all the way and broke it down so easily for anyone to grasp. I myself appreciated the reality check that we all need sometimes. The truest gift is in giving and re-framing what we can bring to Steemit, or how can I be of service to the whole is POWERFUL!

What I personally came away with that really helps me is "Successful blogs are not about you, the writer, they are about the reader and how reading your post can help them or at least entertain them." THIS IS GOLD!

Thank you Sirs for sharing,

Wholeness.

couldn't have said it better myself! :)

Thank to you, that have resteemed this goof posting so I can see on my feed page. Nice ! :)
