I totally understand the addiction. My laptop is open to the PALnet MSP Discord channel approximately 18 hours a day. I'm fortunate that the work I do allows me to be active online. The growth of our PALnet community is exponential. Empowered minnows are motivated minnows. I've seen very few MSP projects fail. (Come to think of it--have I seen any MSP projects fail?)
Some prominent person in the Steemit community made a statement once that I read. For the life of me, I can't remember his name to give him proper credit. Someone will know, so please make sure this gets the right attribution. He said: "The quickest way to become a whale is to help 100 minnows become dolphins."
Folks, I've got news for you--Aggroed is about to embody that theory. Because if 100 minnows becoming dolphins can make a whale. . .what's going to happen when 4,000 minnows become dolphins? But let me add one more thought to this: that wasn't even the goal. 4,000 minnows aren't swimming in Aggroed's wake because he schemed to become a whale. 4,000 minnows are swimming in Aggroed's wake because his priorities are in order. A direct quote from Aggroed: "It's more fun to give." And it isn't just lip service. 4,000 minnows have watched him live this mantra every day.
I made a post today about how Steemit is a game-changer and life-saver for me. Truth is, this probably wouldn't have been the case had I not stumbled into the PALnet minnowsupport chat and decided to make it my permanent address. I would have taken my toys and gone home long ago. But it did happen, and my circumstances have changed for the better. So yes--I understand the addiction. It's one that actually makes sense.
