I Finally Made It.
I have finally reached 1500 SP again. I had to power up a measly amount of 0.744 Steem to land on exactly 1500 Steem Power, but it looks gorgeous and I've actually started to realize that I am somewhat of a powerhouse on Steemit.
I don't have any real numbers or statistics for it, but my own guesstimation is that I am one of the smallest accounts on Steemit working towards the growth of others the way I do. Being a dedicated delegator towards the project and the individuals directly involved, pushing Steemians to the famous slider-bar and into the minnow-category and weekly Steem donations to the
initiative. That's what I do, and I am proud of it.
It's an amazing feeling to give and help others, especially as I can see that the things I do is not taken for granted, and it actually helps. What I do counts, and it's also important. I have an impact, even though I'm the size of 3 minnows.
I am not telling you this in some weird attempt to brag, because the truth is, that even though I sacrifice rewards in various ways and I sort of put my own account on hold a little bit, I still have less overall impact than many others. But I am proud and satisfied with the things I do, and I will continue in the same path for as long as I feel that way.
- No matter what people say or think.
I've had to defend my mindset and my actions on more than one occasion. People have asked me why I think about others instead of growing my own account as much as possible. They have told me that my ideas and approach are stupid and useless... And I take that personal.
I know that I would be able to do more for others if I had more power, but I can't allow myself to not take action where I believe I can make a difference. No matter how small or big. If that means that I'd have to sacrifice some of my own rewards or that it will take a bit longer for me to grow...
- Well, I'm fine with that.
Note:
I know that the announcement of the next user to push is late, but you'll have to sit back and wait a little longer.
