Relearning consistency
Hi,

I was pretty offline, or better said, pretty offchain the past days. I try to be at least 30 minutes - 1 hour active in here, but it is not going as planned in some cases. Also, my priorities shifted a lot in the past month, due to some on and off chain events. 

I like to be consistent, as I think consistency is one of the biggest issues in life, where we stop building and just chase the next big thing, trend or gadget. The idea for this came from a post by  @anomadsoul, which can be read [in here.](https://leofinance.io/@anomadsoul/consistency-as-society-s-biggest) His post is aiming at a real issue, but turn at the end in the issue, as it lacks consistency.

Of this thing, I'm also guilty, as I've been working on some posts, and translations in the past weeks, which I still have to finish. The only thing is to make time for it. 

Will try to be more active in here, to gain again the momentum had before, and if possible to post again on a daily basis, stacking the rewards up, like I've been doing in the past year. Just accumulate and increase the stake, even if it goes slowly. This consistency, will make the snowball going by itself. Learning from the backlash in the past, the plan is to have less discord and more comments, less drama and more help for the ones needed. I would say, beside stacking tokens and coins, also stacking on the growth mentality.

The guidelines I had also before, but now I will enforce them, as time is important and needs to be used wisely. I would prefer to see my boy sleep, then having an argument in discord, with people that don't matter, as for me, my boy matters.

Will keep it short today, as I'm working on a longer post, about a trip to one country that I admire a lot, which really learned me loads about consistency, grit and humbleness, where people suffered a lot, but still can stand straight. If you know which this country might be, please leave a comment below.

Also, what would be your take on consistency?

the question you should be asking yourself is this:

What can I do for the hive blockchain? What is my personal contribution?


...............as opposed to 

>  stacking the rewards up, like I've been doing in the past year.

In my book that statement is extraction without any contribution. I typically discourage that.

Ok, point taken. What would you suggest? As most given the question, there might be a personal view behind it. For me, extraction would be powering down, and selling, where the last power downs, went into Hive projects, such as SPL.

This is a standard point and nothing new.

I suggest you ask yourself what exactly have you done for the community, today, yesterday, last week, last month....so on.

List.

It could be as simple as, I have given a free card delegation of a Max RW legendary to a player.

It could be also I given 500 SPS to another player to stake, or provided them with free SPS delegation.

It could be, I have helped connect this individual to the community and helped them with guidelines to get support for leo.voter.


These are random example, in no particular order.

Again...............for me, what you wrote, is extraction. Whether power down or not.

Also ask yourself, writing a 300 word post about end of season rewards or LPUD, what kind of value it adds to this blockchain. Who will read it and why and how will they benefit from it. The answer is they won't.

Also, the engagement, or lack thereof. How many comments to you get or how much you engage on your own post, who comments on your posts? Here is the answer:

Consistency for me is about doing things at a schedule. No ifs. No buts. And personally, i set constant personal targets closely tied to my finances. Like for example Each month I want to save X amount. If I am a dollar short My next month target will now be X+1. I want to do things like clockwork. Make it part of my routine. Always reminding myself of why I do what I do.

Pay yourself first. Do you have a bigger target? Or what would you aim at?

Life happens. I don't think you need to apologize for that. I know it can be rough sometimes and the guilt is definitely there when you aren't as active on Hive as you would like to be.  I have been there myself.  I hope everything works out well for you!
