What is the Deadpost Intitiative?

The Deadpost Initiative is an attempt to give love to some posts that were overlooked during their short 7 day life span, a chance to bring your old posts back to life and maybe make some friends in the process. The goal is not only to share some love with SBD but also by engagement to generate discussion.

Last week

This past week we had many introspective posts that examined what drives us, in writing, in life, in dreaming. It's interesting to see how some weeks seem to be about a particular theme and this is one I personally love to read about. I have to apologize for the delay on this post, I've been quite busy with 3D stuff, but hopefully it was worth the weight. We should have more consistent payouts above $7 SBD from now on, super ultra thanks to @kennyskitchen for offering an extra upvote every week from @tribesteemup for this post. Also thanks to @krnel for some delegation, I will be more careful to upvote a few great submission comments with that.

Last Week's Winners

@alignment - $3 SBD prize

This is a concept that I am very much interested in and one whose time has come. We fill our minds with crap and rather than trying to cover it with more crap, we might as well clean it up and get rid of what doesn't serve us. Very great article by @alignment, someone to follow on steemit.

Introduction to unlearning and why it is critical for personal growth. Why is it as important as learning?

@fjmb86 - $2.5 SBD prize

This was another great one. As most of us are content creators here, it's really interesting to ask ourselves and others "What motivates us to do what we do". I was expecting a rather simplistic article from the title but this is a pretty nice analysis that uses some ideas from George Orwell. Great post @fjmb86!

@antigenx - $1 SBD prize

@antigenx provides a kind of guide to those who are not sure what they are doing here on this planet. Thanks for the tips.

Is pet poetry a thing? This is the second winner of the Deadpost Initative in this genre! It's a great post though, nice winning streak @liverussian.
