What Buddha has to say about Steemit.

In Buddhism, the eightfold path is meant as a guideline, a help in this sinuous life we live. On steemit, it will help you get the enlightenment to take the good with the bad and remain forever your best self.

I hope this finds you at the right time.

1. RIGHT VIEW

It all starts with seeing steemit AS IT IS not as you may want it to be. What does this mean? That we look at it with the wrong view and only end up hurting ourselves. Think about how this applies to you.

Buddha teaches:
A finger pointing at the moon is not the moon itself. A thinking person makes use of the finger to see the moon. A person who only looks at the finger and mistakes it for the moon will never see the real moon."

2. RIGHT RESOLVE

Once you see Steemit for what it is, is time to look inside. What do you want to do here? What's your contribution? The right resolve means that you will act from the heart, with the correct intention to do good. Are you doing this now?

3. RIGHT SPEECH

Are you aware of the power of words? Because there's great power and words create worlds. On Steemit, content should be SACRED. Your creation act should be pure.
Abstain from lying, manipulating, divisive and abusive speech.
Don't spread hate and you won't sow hate.

4. RIGHT ACTION

Acting ethically on Steemit is a choice especially because you CAN act unethically. The right action will create the path towards abundance.
Do no cause harm, steal or otherwise hurt anyone.
There are always better ways.

5. RIGHT LIVELIHOOD

If we think of Steemit as a way to make a living, the right livelihood boils down to being honest. Transparency is coded into steemit but honesty isn't. That must come from within. Also, work ethic is included here. Are you delivering or just trying to hit a jackpot?
Reflect on what that means to you.

6. RIGHT EFFORT

This refferes to being fully commited to your actions. Cultivate a good atittude, a positive enthusiam towards the possibilites of your work, without being attached to it.
The effort is the reward.
Are you result orientated?
That will only bring pain into your life.

7. RIGHT MINDFULNESS

We reach the mind part now. The observant steemer will not let himself be overcome by negative emotions. Being aware of your feelings as they appear and observing them with curiosity will always be better than reacting.

The journey is long and who knows where it ends, enjoy every part of it. A good post, a nice comment and good day.

Observe yourself and your mind before you speak or write.

Are you too hasty on your keyboard?

8. RIGHT CONCENTRATION

What keys together all aspects is meditation. MEditation is a wonderful practice that will help you reach new levels of self-understanding.
But it can also lead to inspiration, creativity and a beatic attitude towards the world that will be reflect in your content.

Just lay on a chair and focus on your breath for 10 minutes.

Is that hard? no.
easy? you try and find out.
