RE: How The Bear Market Bought Off Steemians' Intrinsic Motivation (feat. Alfie Kohn)
Spot on! Steemit is like the old man in Alfie's story. What an awesome metaphor. Sounds like the solution to bullying and perhaps even war. What if wars made less and less money? Let's be honest, they just cost money. Let's not even go into this.
I can't help but thinking - lately - that I should spend more and more time on creating and less on monetizing/ marketing/ selling my creativity.
What if we could do that with everything? Slowly but steadily take money out of the equation. It surely tells us what really matters to us.
Let's go back to the stone age/ island life where everyone is focusing on what they're good at and or like to do, the things that are actually necessary to survive and possibly thrive :>)
Here's a big hug and loads of positive energy from me to you
Aw, my lovely Vincent. I feel the same lately, leaving it to the universe to find ways to bring abundance to me instead of trying to achieve it all with fervor through the mind and rational thinking. I feel more and more I need to trust in the totality of things in order to continue on my path, instead of clinging to things I think may work when they seem to get me deeper and deeper into a deadlock kinda situation.
I really can't wait for that perma oasis to flourish and put only the bare minimum of focus on system mechanics. guess the goal is clear, let the universe do the rest, I trust it fully <3
much love to you my friend!
