RE: The Not-so-Secret Secret to Steem Growth

in #community7 years ago

The Gift Economy game is the name of the game i've been playing since day 1, while all the others where racking their brains trying to figure out how to "game the system." I was never in search of riches, but something else that I hope will come to pass in actions in the future. If we had more people like you, me and some others, there would cease to be that dark dsytopia that enciricles the earth. The tribes of the past were a hint of what we could become on here......the leader of the tribe was not the one who hoarded the most. The true leader of the tribe became the leader because he or she gave the most. Through this understanding of who had the most abundant mind, the leaders emerged. What we have currently is the opposite of the gift economy. Fear makes us hoard our wealth. Not many people can get out the cycle.

And yet a new cycle is forming that will allow the old to become obsolete! Well observed. Thank you.

I'm a fan of The Gift Economy as well.

Thank you for your comment. I truly believe we can attain a true gift economy that benefits everyone, once we stop focusing on the self.

This is a perfect reminder of what we should all be doing to make an impact on Steemit. I've been going online at night and welcoming new users to the platform. There seemed to be a gap in the wee hours so I jumped right in.

It feels great to brighten someone's day and make them feel at home. I encourage others to do the same. Cheers! :)

I am one of you! Too many people are just gaming this new awesome platform and those are unable to interact... I am new but I hope for a great future of steem! Thank you for your thoughts!!
