Hi @shenanigator - Great post! I think a key feature of becoming a whale is to think with the interests of the community in mind. A lot of people are very focused on how they can do well for themselves. I think whales tend to think of their decisions and actions more in terms of how it will affect the community and the future of Steemit.
Thank you! Agreed. I think people who always have in mind the questions What can I do for the community? How can I add value? will be the most likely to grow into whales.
From the perspective of a Content Strategist @timcliff, people don't always know what they want. So it can sometimes take the perspective of an outside thinker to give a community a different perspective. Although you are right, that means being outwardly focused and considering positive and negative repercussions for the larger group.
