We are finally going to get a break in the weather. After weeks of high 90 deg tempemputer days we are looking at a day in the low 70's. My A/C unit can use the break.
It's not raining but the clouds look like they are ready to open their faucets and dump their supply of water on us with no mercy. There are no weather alerts so that's a good sign
You would think that a day like this is a day to get things done. To get out there and take advantage of the coolness of the day. But you would be wrong. For most it's a day to relax. Spend a bed day watching TV or reading a book. For me it's just another day like any other. I will do the same things as always. The weather has never played a part in any schedule or plans I have. Sure it may slow it down or alter it a little but never changes the plan.
Have you ever thought about why you are on Steemit. Surly we all do things to get something out of it. Whether is a job or a vacation. There is always something we want from it. Whether it is to obtain some material thing or pleasure from it. Somewhere along the line it's to satisfy a need or want. Every action has a purpose.
I know people who set out on Steemit who's purpose was to make enough Steem to live off of. And I know a couple who have succeeded at it. Then again I know some who just want to use steemit as strickly a social platform. And all the rest who fall in between. Nothing wrong with any of those approaches, like I said we all have a need or want that we fill even here on Steemit.
The next logical thing would be what is mine. I like to use the KISS approach (Keep It Simple Stupid). That would mean that my want is to have the flexibility to do what I need or want sometime in the future. To build my SP to accomplish what the future might bring. How much SP do I need to fulfill this future event, I really don't know. All I know is that the more SP I have or control the better off I am. So I will build my SP until that time.
Like many others how SP is to be built is still a question. The approach that I have been and will continue to use is to help others build their SP. The reason is that the bigger the community the greater the reward. A rising tide raises all boats. I get a great deal of satisfaction from other success. Sounds kinda personally counter productive but that's the way I am and you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
Just some thoughts on a gloomy cool day. Maybe I overthink things to much or not enough. The one think I know as a fact is that one has to save for the future or suffer the consequences. Steem is the best return as an investment opportunity right now then any conventional method.
