RE: The Journeys Of Discovery, Storytelling, And Creation In Steemit's Microcosmic Universe...

in #writing7 years ago

Your post is nourishment for lost souls like myself caught in the confusing limbo Steemit creates between my best self and my least intention, which is to make money. Ultimately, we are all on here with the hope of financial freedom, most more than others, but I do believe there is a small population on steemit that views blockchain technology as the tool that will solve epic societal problems. I consider you one and I like to think I fall into that category as well, but the battle against spammers, scammers, and politics, still wages on even in what arguably could become the content utopia.

Sort:  

T'is an ongoing journey here. I've definitely had my battles between the pure intentions and profit motivations, and still do at times.

Like you say, blockchain is a tool - though ultimately, it comes down to how the tool is used.

There will most likely always be politics, corruption, etc in any human domain. Nonetheless, we must carry on committed to our values. The platform is still very young, and there are always trials on the path.

Your feedback is appreciated. Stuff like this is my way of giving back - as really, I could be writing on all other kinds of topics. I was lucky to get in and experience some success early, so always want to pass on some of what i've learned to the newer generations of steemians such that they may benefit from a shortened learning curve and maximize the value they bring to advance the shared vision. Sometimes I don't know for sure whether that is the actual case or I'm just indulging in more circle jerks - so reading that such content is indeed providing nourishment to others like yourself here is much appreciated. 💙
