Running running and running running

in #steemit7 years ago

I feel like something is happening here, something is going on in the background, a shift, a swell, an earthquake. I am not sure exactly what but, change is coming. I have a feeling it is going to be positive but, things always have undesirable knock-ons also.

I always find it interesting how quickly people adjust to a situation and how fast they forget how it was not so long ago. If they are in a better position now, they feel entitles to it even if when it started it was luck, a bonus situation, not built to last.

I find that in times of extended sunny weather, people take advantage without considering that at some point, the rains will come. It is also true for when the weather be foul, and people grumble and complain as if the sun will never shine again. This is crypto, this is a crypto backed platform and it is designed and populated by crypto people. You expected situations to last, you assumed stability?

Things can change very, very fast in the land of crypto and not only in the prices. A small change in code can fundamentally shift the way the platform responds to our behaviours and people benefiting currently could take heavy hits and those struggling could find themselves elevated. Attaching ourselves to the current situation expecting it to lasts is not going to favour us so, be prepared for change.

Again, I don't know what the changes are going to be but, I have a feeling that there are things going on, people working in the background, preparing fo something that could fundamentally change our experiences. I hope it works out well and I hope it benefits the most loyal and invested and not just based on stake. I am hoping it will benefit me too.

When I feel these shifts, I try my best to step back and pay attention objectively to see what I am missing or, what I can gather. Often when big shifts happen, there are breadcrumbs left in seemingly unrelated areas but with a wide enough view, patterns form.

I wonder, can you feel this too, do you feel there is some calm before the storm or break in the clouds? What do you think it may be? What do you hope it to be?

At times like these, times of uncertainty I always have the same process, work. Spend some time reevaluating my position and goals, adjust course and work but, know that it all may change in an instant. I ma off to bed now and will be up in 3 hours for in real life work. Gotta keep running.

I feel it also. It is coming...

Kind of exciting isn't it? I love change and I always have.

It is exciting. I am really hoping it will be a great thing for all who have been looking long.

Such a cute little puppy. And I love the sweater! It's even color coordinated.

Man, you're burning the candle at both ends. 3 hours of sleep is not a lot. Good luck to you.

I agree in that I think change is coming. Most people will grumble when change happens because they were used to the way things were before. It's just the way things are. Eventually they will figure out the ways that the new systems is better than the old one, and work to exploit those opportunities. They'll also learn the ways the new system is worse for them and learn to avoid those challenges.

Hopefully some of the suggestions that you've presented can be incorporated. If not, we'll have to make the best of whatever we get.

Great opportunities are rare for me, I see this as one of them. I have missed nearly all others through an unwillingness to take risks and invest myself.

I know the feeling. I like feeling like I've found something worth pursuing and I'm here before a lot of people. They don't understand it yet, so are unwilling to make the change. That means I have a chance to get ahead before they do.

Einstein only slept for a few hours a night. I need 7 hours or I'm a grumpy bear! :)

I need around 6-7 to function, 8ish to not be a grumpy goose.

Hard men create good times.
Good times create weak men.
Weak men create hard times.

For sure, disruptive changes are on their way.I think for now the developing teams are really engaged in the SMTs as indicated in the last post by @steemitblog. How this will affect the platform? Still waiting to see. But I have a feeling it will be big. So, just like you are doing, I continue to work and to improve on my strategies, for better days ahead.

I’m new but I feel an energy here. Then this morning the new feed was awful and I thought hmmm how’s this going shake out if that fills the feed. Then I went to my own feed and wasn’t thrilled with some picks but that’s a process. I hope more good content comes into play -

That is my feed and then my brothers. See how it works? Find people with good content and then see what they see. You might find some new follows easier.

Thank you—

Nice to see your post on my time zone while I am on. Change is constant! And in the cryptoworld this is expected kinda like a roller coaster ride.Although sometimes the momentum is so slow. Whatever the changes is I hope it will beneficial for the people and community.

I have the feeling that it will stay cloudy for a while, maybe including some small drops but not a bis storm anymore, but remember, Summer is coming! I hope the cryptosummer will come too :)

Your post is absolutely brilliant and very different thanks for sharing this post

Attaching ourselves to the current situation expecting it to lasts is not going to favour us so, be prepared for change.

Change is the only constant throughout life. Even more so online where today one can be the leading platform and in three years, sometimes even less, one can be totally forgotten and become irrelevant.

That most often because one wasn't prepared nor nimble enough to adapt to change.

I hope the change is positive. We all would love some positive changes around.
I have not been observing the platform though, i have been caught in real world issues but you are right, it is kinda calm.

This storm better be showers of blessings. The cute fella there looks excited about change too. Lol. Good morning @tarazkp

true words! I like the example with the weather. And what an awesome picture!!!! I love it :)))

Change will surely come but what matters is those that will still be standing and not to that run away because of change

Nice post. Thanks for sharingDQmZw7eEwkwScVKs6enwuLRz1qec3k8KUAbhAmFgztvvkLz.jpg

Firstly, I'd like to introduce myself to you;) I've lately been in contact with @galenkp and your name came up when he was talking about his birth date...strange how you both have the same.

I too feel something is happening here and I'm aware of certain issues going on, but I'm not at all sure what that really means. What I am sure about, is that change happens whether we want it, don't want it, expect it or don't expect it, so I'm not going to focus too much on it, but I will be willing to change with it...if I need to.

I think that's sometimes the problem with people; they settle in and get comfortable.

You expected situations to last, you assumed stability?

Of course in something like this platform, there is no such thing. I expect it to change, probably plenty of times, but hopefully it will be a positive one.

And on another note...3 hours of sleep? ;)

First of all, I love the picture, haha ❤️
Secondly, yeah I noticed that too. People are constantly changing no matter what happens around them but I don't really find it a bad thing. I see these changings as something good, as people are ready to adapt to anything new comes out which I think it's a bonus. I don't want to see it as a calm period before the storm, just enjoy the little things and let the life happen as she wants to 🤗

It is fascinating how life changes so fast. You can't get too comfortable and expect a linear path. Maybe that's why you enjoy life.

You are off to bed... I am up early... I try to work on Steemit as much as I can because I also sense coming change!

Change is good! Change is necessary in a disruptive environment. I haven't been here long enough to catch previous changes, but if we only think steem blockchain had 19 hard forks already, changes are also frequent.

I just hope proof-of-brain will still be considered a priority. Otherwise we talk about mining, farming, milking or whatever, but the value of content such as what you write will become secondary.

perfect combination, so romantic <3

What?

sorry sir, misunderstanding me,
i want to say it(dog) is cute for time pass .
