I agree that there has to be a balance between thinking about yourself (greed) and others(compassion for the lack of a better word in my vocabulary). I think may be you need to have your basic needs met in order to find the abundance gene. It is hard to give / think of someone else on an empty stomach! Having said that I also think those who do not have a lot are often more willing to share the little that they have with others than many who have a lot. May be it's because when you have experienced what it's like to have very little, it is easier to connect with those in similar situations. I think Steemit does enable everyone to give something to others which is wonderful! I will try to give the little that I can and I think we will all make a difference :)
