Too long, I couldn't make it to the end.
Fine. I don't really mind as it may not have been worth it for you anyway. The information towards the end of books, movies, courses etc. is generally just filler anyway, isn't it? Just in case, this one is short.
Everyone seems to think that they are really trying at this life, really doing their best yet, most seem to have no time to learn anything new. How often do you invest in really finding out how to do something better, improve your skillset, discover if there are other ways to do something? Do you expect someone to just teach you everything you need to do in order to be successful or happy?
I wonder if through some miracle, everyone right now was granted exactly what they deserved based on their efforts throughout the year. Yes, I know this is impossible for us to calculate so lets suspend our disbelief and pretend that there is a committee of perfect gods with ultimate power and absolute vision to make the decisions.
In this mental simulation, you are able to absolutely trust that the decisions made based on effort are precise and correct and the factors calculated were everything necessary to make the decisions. Every conceivable thing has been considered and, they are unbiased and completely fair.
Let's say that there was a massive pool of money and based on the perfect calculations of effort, the pool was distributed accordingly. Would you be happy with your share? Would you be envious of others? Would you be surprised at how much, or how little you received in comparison to others?
Here is a question for you: Out of all active Steemit users, are you in the top 50% or the bottom 50% of effort invested? What if the 'God Committee' divided the pool among all users based on effort. Do do you think your rewards would go up, or down?
As a discussion topic, I am interested in seeing what comments will come. I am keeping this one short so more people can make it to the end.
