The competitive side of me, which I try to keep under control (and mostly succeed now) is thrilled with the idea that you're not trying to keep up, while the doubt side of me (which I mostly control, too) wonders if a) you're just saying that you're not trying but really using reverse psychology, and b) that if you can basically stay in the Top 5 without even trying, I should just give up now. :)
However, the relatively rational and trusting sides of me (which I usually allow them to do their thing) say there's enough on your plate at any given time that Steemit and specifically the leagues, while fulfilling, satisfying and somewhat a distraction, is secondary to the welfare and well-being of yourself and Brian, and that I have no reason to not take you at your word.
So, that said, I just have 299-plus other people to be concerned with. :)
hahaha I was and am being sincere, but now that you say this,
I must admit there's some truth to it. I do try, but am always surprised when I see my standing in the league :)
Worry about the other 299 haha and consider me one of them maybe too :)
I don't even know who all those folks are. :) Oh, well. Just got to keep doing what I do and see what happens. It's bound to come to an end at some point.
I like it when things turn out better than expected. It means that there is still good in the world. :)
I'm a firm believer in the abundance of good in this world...just gotta look past some of the junk to see it :)
