It is not easy to make a difference, I now realize why the ways of a man has to be rough before he can succeed. @leadent360 has been cooking up a lot of things behind the scene for some months now and I assure you it will wow you.
The first question I want to ask is when we seek change, do we refer to profits or ideologies? Believe me, both will serve a purpose, one for a brief while and another for a lifetime.
@infovore once told me never to think of temporary gains (at least not in those exact same words) but to form a bond that will leave this site. I realized upvotes were good, but a good relationship was better.
I realized that you won't have so many chances to make an impression, so make use of the ones given to you so you don't end up envying others.
Total dependency has never been my strong suit, so whenever I propose a project, I bring 60% to the table and expect 40% from external sources.
The mistake people make when it comes to effecting change is that they leave most of the real work for others to do while they simply lay back and expect to bask in the glory. If you don't work your idea, you won't work at all. An idea is only as good as the person executing it and if you have the wrong execution mindset, you are doomed.
Like I will always say, the blockchain can be anything you want it to be and all you have to do is have a good imagination, the ability never to quit, a fire to execute and a thirst for more. That is the real recipe for change.
I remember when I started the first Steemit In Nigeria campaign, it was hectic, at some point, I felt the real meaning of frustration, I felt like "was it going to work" I even got broke in other to see it come true, whenever I see so many meet ups springing up, I feel so proud that me and my team were able to fan the flames of change.
I could have stayed back, I could have played it safe, I could have chosen not to take any risk or expect others to do the work for me, instead I didn't, I played the music and I had to dance to it. Trust me when I say I had an amazing dance and so did a lot of people.
Succeeding or failing is dependent on the mindset we carry about, the change won't come if we sit on our hands and simply wait for a miracle, it will only come when we stop wishing and start acting.
It saddens me when I see beautiful ideas down the drain, I mean someone cooks up a beautiful plan, gets support and gingers on, stops when the support is not like before and abandons a potential game changer for momentary gain.
It is time we start taking responsibility for our actions and it is time to change the blockchain and change the world.

If you want it do be well, you have to roll up your sleeves and be at the forefront.
People most times will buy into ideas partly because of the passion they see you put into it.
Believe and passion can also be contagious.
Thank for you for been a pathfinder.
Man of wise and expensive words...
:)
indeed he is.
Hello @ehiboss.

I would say that many don't want to soil their hands and offer the necessary sacrifice before expecting good and positive results. This is the major problem of Mankind

I really had to read this writeup line by line till the end. Even the Holy book made it very clear that heaven helps those who help themselves. So one has to make some moves in life to be successful and not sit and hope for a miracle that might never happen. Thanks for sharing this extraordinary writeup I am not only motivated by it but I have also learnt some lessons.
That is the language of winners. Is there any wonder why you have come out this way, pure gold refined with fire. You are a fighter.

Good one.... Good one.... Very motivative!!!
@ehiboss Your post is quite inspiring, not just on our activities on Steemit or the blockchain but on life generally. You said it all when you remarked that:
In a nutshell we can summarise it all by asking all to tarry long enough with their ideas, to suffer now in order to glory in the champion they will become later. Truth is that sooner or later everyone reaps what he sows - that being a law that is not changeable.
One more time, thanks for the inspiration.
You're followed and resteemed.
Awesome motivational bit of review.
Great motivational piece of write up. Good job
At times is not so easy to change things for good ,but so enjoyable in future. Thanks for sharing.
We must endeavour to walk our talk, if we don't push our ideas nobody will do it for us. good job @ehiboss, upped.
This touched me
So motivating

Thanks for this reminder, according to the words of Henry Ford, if you think you can, you're right and if you think you can't, you're still right.
It's all in the mindset we carry and that brings about what we Birth in reality.
The boss!! Another highly motivational piece. Really the best person to bring an idea to reality the original way it came is you the original owner. Live your idea and dreams, no one can live it better. Thanks for this reminder my Boss.
If i say all what u have written didnt move me it a lie. To archive some things won't be easy at first, but to keep going is a thing of the mind.
In most situations i had witnessed in life, it always look ugly before it gets beautiful. i have learned some lessons in here thus ;
This has a lot of meaning to me as i often had a mindset which appeared to be awkward....
This was a quote i had borrowed from a movie maker Jean Claude Vandamme maybe i used it wrongly as against his perception but i had been wallowing in the mystery of the interpretation i gave to the quote.
until recently i came to understand that you might need to hunt for Lion even if you don't have a gun with you. It's a matter of your mindset to hunt it down. So the real weapon is the Mindset.
Build your mindset to positivity
It is not the dreamers that the world knows but it is the doers. Keep the fire burning Sir.
This is absolutely spot on... One major hitch is how people choose to settle for immediate but temporary gains instead of looking beyond the present and projecting far into the future;aiming at leaving an unforgettable mark (which will sure serve as an inspiration to others who need encouragement).
Time after time, I've also observed how people give up on their narrative changing ideas and initiatives, all in the name of some "instant profit" incomparable with what they would've stood to gain in the long run.
Well said @ehiboss
We all just gotta do what we can, however we can, with no sentiments, to encourage and enlighten those around us on this note.
Sometimes we really need to be truthful to ourselves to make a change, it's very easy to agree with this post without really searching to see if we are a negative victim to the concept you are trying to rule out , am really touched by this line "The first question I want to ask is when we seek change, do we refer to profits or ideologies? Stayed like 30 minutes to really know what I have being defining change as. "I know my steem power can do you no good, to pay for this night of restructuring my thought" I feel blessed
I really do grab your point. And you may not know it, but somehow, you have encouraged me on all levels. I was almost giving up on all these. Almost.
I love d idea that u believe in team work. Many people see themselves as high and mighty whenever they get to a certain stage in there life and feel they can do everything on there own.
Every single line in this post makes sense. I agree with you because we really cannot change our situation if we do not change what we do everyday. Many have hopes and aspiration but do nothing to bring it forth and see if there could be a breakthrough, yet they complain and want a change to their situation. Thanks for sharing sir
I have been energized by this and cant get this out of my mind:
