thank you for sharing and posting very interesting

Nice post..amazing

Both of those books sound extremely interesting and will be getting them soon! Content really is the most valuable thing and the mainstream doesn’t have much content of substance anymore. I am really getting sick of always being sold to.

I believe youre on to something. These are very important points you bring up. Ultimately it is vitaly important that we keep learning new ideas and perspectives in order to keep advancing. I started this journey about 5 years ago when I first got into sales/business and it put me on a path to always strive to improve myself in some way no matter how big and keep an open mind to new perspectives. ill definitely look into these books. if you havent already read it, The Master Key System by Charles F Haanel is a really good book. one of my favorites.  @kevinwong Check it out and thanks for the useful content!

content is the king !!!

The points from Derek Thompson's book are really interesting. I wouldn't have tought familiarity could beat novelty in the age of click-bait.  That means a loyal ( even though small) following it's more important than just trying to grab people's attention for a few seconds.

>Dare to not mimic others.

Thanks for spoting this out @kevinwong
 mimicking is now the other of the day and growing rapidly especially on Steemit.
No one makes a new idea again, they just stalk and look for the idea with high payouts and they would venture in and probably get everything ruined for the owner of the idea.

>Distribution beats content.

This is so right
Talent sells more than anything, anywhere Not on only steemit

Conundrum, yes... seems like they are saying different ideas... the ying and the yang ??

It's just how such many factors affects the brain of people for that network effect from content creators.

Wonderful post my friend.   There is a lot of meat and substance to learn and grow from.   As a self-employed business owner I appreciate perspectives of others who have proven their worth.   Good advice and wisdom from these videos and post!  It makes complete sense.

I am only 13 something mins into the first vid and my mind is buzzing.
i need to take a break and get back to it.

I have an idea that fits in with the complimentary mentioned in the Video.
But i have a question that needs to be answered before even talking about it. Maybe you can help with the answer:
Why are we unable to buy Steem directly through the market with dollars?

I appreciated you coz you talking great topic @kevingwong. Lot of peoples didn`t talk like that, search only whats the benefits and rewards received. If change this network chain system must need to get assistance from digital medias. They doing great support providing network ability. Must provide communication step by step to the society. Also must use digital technology.

very useful thank u for sharing

I covered *Hit Makers* in one of my earlier Five Nuggets series. I listened to the audio book each morning as I was driving in to the office. It's an absolutely amazing book. Thinking I need to check out *The Content Trap*.

Most of important speech about digital change of Mr.Bharat  Anand (Professor of Business Administration) Nice thoughts here of trying to grow this network. Such a great mantra indeed for growth up network effects. As my mind, if we are try to increase digital change require to use  technically-oriented & Socially- Oriented in this platform. Both of positions highly needed. As society high performance currently under the technical condition. Then after we can more user coverage and give more benefits to users on this platform. Most important thing is provide network.
Also Mr.Derek Thompson`s showing another huge points for transfer network into market locations. Require to encourage all of  resources in this fact. Then lets go. Try to our best...
Great conversation @kevinwong.
Resteemed.

Content is King! The better and most original you have the more sucess you are going to have with it.

In my company we are having more and more conciency of this and our onlinestore is growing because of that.

And no doubt that the network effect is there! More people talk about you the strong you will be!

nice post thanks for sharing! 
Upvoted!

"Dare not to mimick others"- How true!

We get trapped in the being or essence of others while mimicking them.

We think we are progressing but we are only running around in circles because we have make the people we are mimicking our focus instead of ourselves or something better.

or we may even progress but wont really go far in the end.#

Quite an educating post.

@kevinwong

This is truly a new world and new way to looking at things. Network effects by putting incentives will allow the next generation currency forger to be developers not banks, big industry to be truly distributed and transparent. It is definitely a good time to be an entrepreneur with brilliant and ambitious ideas..

thanks for sharing

I surely do hope that the value of steem will rise more.

1. Creat to connect.
2. Expand to preserve.
3. Dare to not mimic others.
Good mantra. @kevinwong
