Hey Steemains

Its that time of the week again, where I go a bit of treasure hunting or dumpster diving you choose by the quality of the posts I find. 

So let's dive in and see what we can find this week shall we? This is my 26th attempt in sniffing out good posts from smaller authors and I think I'm getting better at it, what do you think?

## Found a few hidden gems?

If you found or know of an author that you feel is undervalued and would like to give them 15 seconds of fame why not enter the @pifc curation contest. You can find all the details you need in this weeks submission request post [here](https://steemit.com/@pifc/week-57-pay-it-forward-curation-contest)

## My Pay It Forward Authors of the week are:

I know I'm a bit late this week, just really haven't had the strength to go deep diving into steemit for posts. Its just been one of those weeks you know? Eventually I did get around to it, such is my commitment lol. I was just lucky to find these 2 posts going unrewarded and I really think you will enjoy both of them. 

One on success and one on lying, hmmm! check them out now!

## Post 1: Has our need to ACHIEVE reached epic toxic proportions? By @toolanm

* Author Reputation: 55 
* Post payout: $0.14

A look at the other side of success, the cost of it on society. Should their be more of a balance to what we consider success instead of looking at this constant competition for a place we perceive as the top. Should we rather be finding our point of success and not comparing it with others?
