Love this thread from @markwhittam and @mackjez-santos, I never imagined that a social media platform would actually end up making me indirectly wiser, however comments such as these certainly bring a little enlightenment to the reader! I too will not be looking at the numbers (as much as I used to in the corporate world), The thing I like in this part of the conversation is that there is a feeling with steemit, I truly believe that the feeling we all have here is that it is really up to us all to make this platform and our experience here into a success, both for the individual and for all steemians (and hopefully others outside of this platform). This platform provides a true chance for ones own success to help others achieve success. That is the feeling I get here, I dont need metrics to measure it, I just need to make it happen! steemon steemians!
