CoronaVirus is forcing me to slow down with my activity on SteemitsteemCreated with Sketch.

INTRODUCTION

Hi everyone

Past several weeks has been insane. Coronavirus spreading rapidly, Justin Sun purchasing Steemit and getting into open conflict with steem witnesses, economic slow down present already almost everywhere etc.

Today I would like to wrap up some things and I hope to get few minutes of your attention. If you're busy - then at least scroll down and read "IMPORTANT" section of this post.

COMMUNITY PROGRESS

line2.png

During previous weeks, I've managed to put aside many of my personal duties and I focused on pushing project.hope forward. TOGETHER - we've managed to grow into very strong community and several new authors joined our efforts.

I'm proud of our achievements so far.

We've reached almost 300k SP in delegation, I'm managing few tipu upvotes (130k SP each one) and also strength of @ph-fund curation trail exceeded already 500k SP. And I'm planning to double it before end of 2020.

CURATION TRAIL

If you didn't join our curation trail, then do it right away: https://steemauto.com/dash.php?i=15&id=1&user=ph-fund

Every day it's being triggered 4-5 times only to promote posts published by authors from project.hope community and 1h later strong 300k SP upvote from project.hope follows.

This way everyone following this curation trail will upvote before that 300k SP - and this way your curation rewards should increase.

PROJECT.HOPE ECONOMY FINALLY FULLY SUSTAINABLE

For past few months I've been spending over 900 steem of my own resources to cover project.hope costs (supporting financially core team). Last month - for the first time - all rewards coming to @ph-fund reached 900steem and in march this number will surely exceed 1k. Which is great - since it means that I no longer need to spent my own funds (I've already used around 10k within last year to push project forward).

FOLLOW EACH OTHER

line2.png

Below I'm going to list all authors from our community, which have been active within past weeks. Try to follow each other.

STAY ACTIVE WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY

line2.png

I would like to underline, that I value being active within community more than I value quality of published content. So I always will prioritize with solid upvotes contenct created by those of you, who are active and engaging with others.

So try to create habbit of visiting our hive every day or visit @project.hope and focus on resteemed publications. Let's grow together, as a community of well educated and team-orientated users.

IMPORTANT:

Since current situation with coronavirus affected both of my sources of income (dropped by 70-80%) - I will have to focus on finding other means to support my life financially. For that reason my presence on Steemit will be reduced within next weeks.

I will continue manual curation and I will invest 1h daily to check out 3-4 publications posted within our hive, but I won't be able to read and comment as much as I did so far (3-4h daily, 7days I week).

So if anyone would like to ensure that I will visit his/hers post - then please share link with me via DM.

Yours, Piotr

  • do not resteem

Sorry to hear that the coronavirus incidence has affected your finance. I hope you find solution to this. You have been doing a great job with project hope and i commend this.

Please take your time and all the best.

The other possibility to grow this community is to start delegating tasks within the team. Spend 1h per week in a call to keep everyone in the same page, and rotate efforts of curating between a team. I know that there additional risks on doing so, such as, for example, possible neglecting or miss'happens, or simply because sometimes people need to attend to their lives and can't just commit the time. But, if people give it a bit of a go, step by step, even more great teams can be created. I speak by experience of course.

If anyone would like to put a call every week 1 hour is more than enough, to discuss an agenda and get some work done in a distributed but super focused way, let me know. I am happy to jump in and commit 1 hour of my week for that cause.

Requirements:

  • The first idea of a weekly call is to narrow important strategic aspects of a "team" that will help doing the work @coach.piotr has been doing, but with less effort due being distributed across multiple persons.
  • The second reason for it, is due quality reasons. If having "a team" representing @coach.piotr, then quality standards have to be agreed and maintained.
  • Call can only happen if everyone pre-agrees with an agenda. Estimates are required by everyone, and if not enough time, then shift to next week.
  • This is on a per pro-rata effort, so if there are no resources at a given time we need to define what happens.
  • We shall document meetings to make things easier to review (google docs first, then a post for public transparency).

Let me know what all of you think about this. No reasons for shame in saying "no", I am just providing my view of how we could keep the momentum while adapting to the economic consequences that this virus will bring to everyone.

This system that you propose is very interesting.

Chronavirus is making things difficult worldwide and I can understand your situation. Will get in touch with you through DM if required. Take care my friend.

Definitely Sorry to hear this, the virus has become stronger and more rampant as of late and in many places it's halted activities just like in my country too. It's definitely fine, we're still here and helping to push the community to the extreme. I'll do my best and we hope the virus will be tackled very soon too. Cheers!

I, for one will miss your frequent presence but it's cool.

I hope there is an end to this novel virus.

Got it!

It's so sad to hear that your finances are affected by the outbreak of coronavirus. Well, where there is life, there is hope of a better tomorrow.

got it

Espero que consigan apaciguar este virus. Está volviendo loca a la gente que no lo sufre y matando demasiadas personas a las que contagia. Es inevitable que la economía también se vea afectada. @coach.piotr.
