An easy way to pick the wrong career is to put your image above your interests and identity.
A motivating job isn't the one that makes you look important. It's the one that makes you feel alive.
Meaningful work isn't about impressing others. It's about expressing your values.
@zerohedge Are the halving events just the reverse of debasement.....except the currency is not debased ...the work effort ...your time and smarts are debased. . They're worth less as we approach 21 million? One day your effort is worth x bitcoin...the next the same effort is worth x less ?
@jay_drainjr@cdixon A wise man once wrote "if you compare yourself with others, you'll either be vain or bitter".
Ask yourself what Hill you'd climb if no-ones watching.
@naval The substitution for one elite with access and privileges by another with the same but different...the passage of time will tell. Man's ideology always comes second to his nature.
@naval My word is my bond
The tragedy of the Metaverse, NFT, Crypto and Blockchain, coupled with the evolutionary inevitable Web 3.0
We have seen this before.
It’s not progress. It’s shameful, it’s painful. Like extinction, like climate change, like the snap back of a coiled spring.
@naval Imagine Earth Hour wasn’t about turning off the lights, but switching on the glow of hope, trust and love; and as a species we shone celestial.
Would we be better off?
Are we be capable?
Tragic?
@naval Imagine if we dedicated all our productive capabilities, all our earth fed energies into just turning, at the exact same time, to the person next to us…… and spoke…..and meant what we said…..”I trust you.”
@naval We are all guilty. It’s got zero to do with who you identify with or as! It’s you!
We lose our way. We lose faith in a few and then trust topples and skittles our belief in the whole. So here we are. Divided. Splintered
@naval We have seen it before many times.
In oppression. In the savage beast of the tribe, in a nation leaving Egypt, in “let them eat cake”, in the empire building colonialists, the insatiable scorn of the conquistadors, the purges by the righteous.
@naval We are again at the nexus of a complete displacement of trust. The dislocation of looking in someone else’s eye and saying I am good for what I say, I am good...so is my word.
@naval Our word is our bond. Yet we find ourselves here, again. Here where the disgrace of the minority, the greed of the few, the fear of the lonely and the selfishness of the select, poisons the minds of the many. It could be you. It’s me. I am betting it’s you too.
@naval I wonder within the duality of each of us how many of us would actually trust ourselves if we were to meet ourselves…..I bet it’s a big number. I bet it is most of us.
@naval It’s the modern version of revolution; except the only difference is bloodshed doesn’t run red, it runs like tears down your cheeks, and it smells like fear jumbled in the helpless thoughts of unadulterated anxiety.
