What's guud Steemians!

Happy humpday, I trust you are having a nice midweek meander on our favorite publishing platform! It feels good to be in the summer holiday slow lane. Taking it easy as I said in my last post and spending quality time with my son and family here in England. I've also been getting a lot more reading done, replying to comments on social media and engaging with our newly formed steemit mastermind group over there on FBIbook. It has been noticeably luxurious letting go of my incessant content creation obsession. Wooohsah!

Some might say that's just slacking Keni!

Well indeed, myself included have casually proclaimed how "Easy" it is to post daily, just keep pushing the button I've said! Yet I've slipped off the daily posting train more times than a naked nuru massage. I don't feel any less self disciplined though, it's just that I can't force myself to bang away at a thing unless I'm fully into it.. not like the old days.

Now it's all about synchronicity for me, it's gotta flow in each moment and I just won't force it. Perhaps it's just taken me this long to slow it down and appreciate the finer things in life. Like being in love with this beautiful woman, watching our gorgeous and energetic son grow and enjoying all these amazing people in my life.. I love to pay attention to the blessings.

Here I am back in March claiming how I will be a daily blogger lol!

So why am I saying all this? My point is that our perspective is our choice and it entirely shapes our reality. All it takes is a moment to stop and listen to our intuition (inner-tuition). Love is our clearest guidance, let's realize this is available all around and within us. You don't have to put your legs behind your head to feel it. Simply relax, breath in and breath out.


Close your eyes if you want, feel the awareness of self in the body and allow all that is.. to be. Begin appreciating every sense you have about who and where you are right here and now. That's all I'm saying, with this practice one can all ways feel better than before. If you ever feel as if there's no one else to love, simply accept this as a gentle reminder to start with yourself.


Now doing this daily, promising this simple routine to yourself is much more important than posting about random stuff on Steemit everyday. It literally lifts your vibration and puts things onto a higher perspective, and we all know the higher you get, the more you see.

We all benefit when having a calmer mind space and contemplating our choices with clarity. Feel the radiating glow of pure happiness in each moment as it brings forth one our greatest gifts; CREATIVITY. Aaaand that's what I'd like to call forward to the future Steemian, let's say it again.. Wooooosaaaaah

WTF has this got to do with posting on Steemit?

So the truth from my experience is that the moment a thing feels like a "Job", that's when I fall out of love with it. Daily blogging is a easy idea to subscribe to, yet it's a challenging task to maintain. Once out of love with a thing, people stop caring and start looking for ways to cheat. Wanting to short cut experiences and maximize gains without sharing too much energy. Kinda like me with the YouTube thing while I'm already eyeing up Dtube.

Some may feel it's acceptable to throw shit at the wall and call it art. While truth is, inside we all know when we're better off just taking a break. Honesty helps our creative juices flow and inspiration (in-spirit-action) drives our desire to contribute our true expression of self.. which feels good right?

Of course value is completely subjective and I get it, every one has their own hustle. Many feel some huge urge to get ahead or to some other place. Yet the truth is everything is happening here, now. The "do more" game becomes highly addictive to the idea of getting "there" and I suspect this is a major motive behind our plagiarizing and spamming situation.

So all I'm saying is slow down, take it easy and visualize the bigger picture. Accept that we all require room for growth if our true intentions are to manifest. Steemit may have to endure the acne of copy/paste spammers, bot networks, auto-voting farms and giant steeming piles of shit posts before we evolve.

The greater realization is that as we the people earn, we the people learn. We're ever being and becoming and with greater awareness brings greater values. Value is what expands us as a network, community and currency.

We are all here and every time I look around I see more coming. Sure we have a systemic spam issue at the moment, I don't feel it will matter in the long run. It's all unfolding as part of our maturing, we all grow and start taking part in this community. We see how spam harms us as a collective and we start taking action. Just as the internet is an extension of our collective consciousness, the first thing we did was post porn and jerk off to our own genius.

I'm directly guilty of this too and yet I am still here, learning and growing. Only when we look back on how far we've come and everything that we have achieved on this platform, together. We will see it has and always will be our freedom to create the world and Steemit however we want it to be.

As usual none of this was what I planned to write today and yet, here we go. Just push the button.. only do it when it feels good and If these ideas connected with you in any way, send that energy in motion to the comment section and don't forget to breath and enjoy life!

Wholeness.
