WARNING: I swear enough in this one to make a sailor blush!

Do so much ppl ask questions: "Why?"

Whatever I invest in I treat it like I'm the owner/creator.
I remember in football I was the only one that would sprint as fast as I could during after practice laps. Soon everyone sprinted because it became socially unacceptable to jog.

Gotta take a bite and run with it. Don't let circumstances stagnate you. Life isn't meant to be fair; you get what you TAKE!

@harpagon is the third name you were looking for. He's doing a great job and as far as I understood it, build most of Steem-Engine. He indeed deserves to be named.

On a more personal level, the moment I discovered Steem I knew it was special. And since then, I have put more time and energy into understanding this blockchain then many other endeavours in my life and continue to do so.

For me it is clear, this is the one.

Thanks for the uplifting video!

Thank you! @harpagon I am sorry I forgot your name, was an unplanned episode, I appreciate the work you put in for Steem!

Me gusto mucho, tratare de seguirte. Saludos

#MeToo :-P

I brushed my teeth so hard after watching this video that my gums almost started bleeding.

My tooth fell out doing the same thing 😂

You didn't give up when that hacker stole your 10k, anyone else would've quit and just said fuck it. Instead, you invested. That alone says everything.

You've made the Steemit Minute for today! Congrats!

Check out the Video Here: https://steemit.com/dtube/@reseller/x5supu2n

I love to watch your videos, but data is always a challenge for me, has videos consume a lot of data and In my area data is very expensive.

I will make sure to back them up on @onelovedtube with the lowest setting to help with data.

OK. Cool @theycallmedan.

Exactly,,many people do not watch the video because of data fear because its expensive in their areas.
And they got idea from the title or description box.

Very true @coolguy222

This. I do not have the bandwidth for video, so can only read notes or transcripts. Since none are provided here, I remain unable to learn this information.

If you see this @theycallmedan, please do provide written info going forward.

Hey dan I’ve followed you to steem (stalker alert)
I’ve only been in crypto a few months now and have been through most of your old videos , just like to take this moment to thank you for all that you have done for crypto so far , are you planning to cover more general crypto videos in the future ?
I only ask because right now it seems your all in on steem which is cool as it’s a amazing project and has a huge future
Either way bud you’ve been inspirational to me and helped me get the right mindset for crypto and how time is powerful
Respect 👊

Welcome to Steem! I am invested in other projects outside of Steem and will be talking about them for sure. I talk about what I am most excited about and right now it has been Steem.

Thanks for taking the time to reply Dan
Going back in time I know you were bullish on NEO
With the recent NEO 3.0 devcon do you still believe and see NEO around in 5 years as one of the leading platforms ?

Can I vote this video for the best of the week? 😂 Mad Motivation, let’s step up the game stackers!! 💪🏼🙌🏼💯

Getting off good for great was the perfect line I needed to hear for my home biz. My apt is stuffed with a lot of stale inventory that's been slowing me down. I'm in berserker mode now throwing average stuff into my hallway to make room for better. I knew this what I needed to do, but I was emotionally attached to trying to get paid from average because it's more than zero, but it's best to cut ties to make room for better. These are upcycled things, so it's no cost out of my pocket except the future revenue. Thanks.

Carrying inventory has costs.

This is known.

I did some work for folks that sold used books on Ebay. They literally could no longer bathe at home because they had stacks of books in the bath. Even so, they would not part with their inventory because emotional investment. This did not work out well for them.

I hope you are able to transition to a leaner model.

Ahhh you understand through association!! Thanks. At the rate of square footage in my city, the cost is pretty damn high too versus using it for social or recreational purposes. I've debated a storage unit for overflow and high volume count items, but there simply aren't many good options nearby that are practical for daily zipping back and forth.

As for my bathroom, I'll admit that it often has several Dyson or Shark vacuums in there I've upcycled and need to clean up before parting out. I call it a small business sacrifice at this time and a small price to pay for the overall freedom I have, but it's not practical long term.

Thanks for catching my comment here and the nudge forward.

Thanks! You're really pushing the envelope hard! No need to tell you keep up the great work cause I know you will... but still... sprint on!

Reminds me of the quote:

"How you do one thing is how you do everything"

Always give 100%. And fuck #comfortzone... #GROWTH comes when you push 'limits'. #pushittothelimit

Also very impressed with the success of #DrugWars.. Looking forward to future #dApps!

Thanks, @theycallmedan!!!

maaaaaan. this fired me up!

you hammered that point about @drugwars perfectly.

...in a MONTH!!!! is all it took for this thing to take the dapp world by storm.

and i truly believe this is just the tip of the ice berg of what’s coming to steem.

time to get to work for real!!

I think I’m the only one not playing drug wars 😂... people tellin’ me to use there links 😬

Send 1000 Steem while you’re at it jk 😂

Good stuff Dan, TY!!

People will be watching this content for decades. Timeless and invaluable knowledge.

Thanks man for those inspiration. I think I've a favourite blog in yours to follow. You'll get to know more of me

@theycallmedan, True, at this moment many are not aware of the Steem Cave and whoever knows about this, out those some deep dived into this cave because they know that what potential this cave hold and we can mine valuable treasure of future, today. Stay blessed brother.

Most people don't understand how crypto works, like in my country.

Others underestimate the power of dapps on Steemit and others don't see the value of Steem because never tired it themselves.

Others are just LAZY!!!

Rest is the negative individuals that tried to use Steem but gave up, because they didn't try hard enough!!!

THEY DIDN'T TRY VERY VERY VERY HARD TO WORK THEIR WAY UP!

Yeah, it's a bit easier if you have the money to invest but really it's not easy because it takes a lot braveness to invest your money and it's even more stressful!

Damn Dan! I love ur videos. I feel I just got pumped full of fresh oxygen. Ur a great motivator. Drugwars taking the world by storm right now.

First time hearing watching your channel. I like the cut of your jib!

Yes let us go with steem full steam ahead @theycallmedan because this platform is not only a social media but a place for certain dapps that has a lot of use cases and it will indeed put us all in good destiny because of the value created within the steem platform.
Steem is here to stay and it will grow and grow and it will carry us all with it for a better tomorrow.
I had been in this platform for many months now and it literally saved my life because of my myriads of health condition. So I am a living proof that there is a bright side of steem that we all must realize so we just have to use it good side and improve its bad side.

I am not asking why? because after watching the video and listening the encourage words it is no need. That is the reason i like your words, you say everything directly and its hit my mind. Also love the community, when getting the chance trying to share something.

Well but can not finished the whole video :( At the time every one is running with hot drugwars!

“There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass! Who's been pinching my beer?
And at the other end of the bar the world is full of the other type of person, who has a broken glass, or a glass that has been carelessly knocked over (usually by one of the people calling for a larger glass) or who had no glass at all, because he was at the back of the crowd and had failed to catch the barman's eye. ”

Oh man...You know how many times I get that very same damn question:

"Why do I spend my energy on this platform and why do I spend my time on something that eventually will collapse?"

I wish I could make them see..I wish I could open their damn eyes and force them to be part something that might change our fates and not be observers...

At least I know that I am not alone in that...there are more decentralized minds...out there. I know I am on the right track.
Cheers mate.

Great sermon Dan! Truth!!

This post has been included in the latest edition of SoS Daily News - a digest of all you need to know about the State of Steem.

Drugwars.io took everyone by surprise. It's crazy how it exploded :)

I hope Steemmonsters does the same after the tournaments become integrated into their home page.

This is absolutely a great motivational speech from a motivator speaker @theycallmedan

It is amazing and wishing your successful journey.. And always update...

After this Bear Market, I also became comfortable with the pain of being in the red. Ahahahh! 😂

Leadership is about people, it has nothing to do with any title. Being a leader is not easy. Every individual is different from the other and come from different background, and has different thought process. ... If you want to be a true leader, you must inspire your employees through your actions.
Way to inspire us Dan!

#1 "dapp" created a week ago... yep.

just wait until we create real dapp games where the players own 100%

evolution is accelerating exponentially.

Can you do a post on this idea? It's amazing, but how would a game get created without someone owning it per se?

I've done several... I guess I should start grouping my gaming posts in a clump.

Basically I want to see a real dapp, where there is no server running the game.
Every player is responsible for running their own game node.

You basically download every block, throw away what you don't need, and use the rest to run the game.

We probably need some kind of block torrenting system to implement this so everyone can get the blocks in a decentralized way.

https://steemit.com/captcha/@edicted/puzzle-games-as-captchas-part-2

Ah, sorry, I actually meant from a design, coding, artwork point of view. I'm sure we could leverage Steem post payouts to incentivize the game artwork, Utopian.io to help with the code, even DAO to make decisions... but you'd still need someone to own it to call the shots and make sure it's not a crazy random mess... or at least own the domain URL.

Oh the funding part.
I think the funding and development should be decentralized as well. The game starts out as an empty shell but gets developed by the community through a bounty system.

but you'd still need someone to own it to call the shots and make sure it's not a crazy random mess

Do Bitcoin or Ethereum need someone to call the shots so it's not a crazy random mess? That's just the way decentralization is. It's hard to get consensus, but it's worth it.

No, I guess not. They both had someone design the system, but I guess Satoshi or Vitalik don't really own their respective systems.

I wonder if something like Towerfall could work like this... someone designs the overall rules, and then the crowd creates characters, mobs and levels that get included if they get enough votes or whatever... I'm going to think more on this...

That's my vision. I want to create skeletons and have them filled in by the community.

The future of decentralization in one comment.

Kudos!

And yet the ultimate question yet remains.. why DO they call you dan? Its one of the great mysteries of steemit XD

You must have missed me on the @actifit show today on discord. I explained why they call me Dan. xD

Shh, no you didn't.. I prefer it to be a mystery.. XD

Fighting talk!! Drugwar fighting talk!! ;0D

Them some fightin’ words 😂

@theycallmedan right said
We must analyse the opportunity ourselves, we should not follow the chaos of other people.

I agree no one is talking about Steem and it is very quiet. Could be the eye of the storm or the eye of the tiger lol. I have full confidence in this place and it is about to lift off again. It has to as it is just too good to fail.

Great sermon Dan! Truth!!

Awesome. Subscribed.

The @drugwars is absolutely true. Again, a small example of what this place can actually turn out to be.

I love writing and the minute I found this place, I tuned in here mostly as a place for posting my fiction/poetry and has been giving it my 100% but anything can be everything, right?

With some music background it would be perfect!

There is nothing guaranteed in life

Sooo true!
Awesome speech man. You are on fire and I am burning now as well!

Peace!

It is always necessary for a leader to indicate the paths to follow. In this case, there are many users who follow their path, in order to try to advance, and be successful on this platform.

You show me and great project and I will show you something run by a leader. ;)

I honestly have not paid enough attention to the higher players before especially on dtube vloggers but you got my attention when people started telling me about your deligation contest.

And honestly your "pep talk" is what many people in life needs now. Not just only crypto bearish market, but everything else.

I was like you before always stepped out of the norm and pushed harder in whatever I do but lost the zeal lately when I got burnt in many things in life.

But thanks for your pep talk (that I did use 1.25x to listen) and straighten up my thoughts again.

Peace be with you, and push on 110%! 💪🏻

The Dapps continue to grow and build attention which is what is in demand everywhere! Soon the value of the community and the ecosystem being built will come to be regarded as too good to miss as an opportunity for all typesnof stakeholders.

I know you are a super strong Dan! I am a fan of you!

Absolutely right that the point nobody talk about steem.
Afraid the tiger action............. :P If you have no skill where is our position?
Why........why............why? its happen. Yes, finally its all depend on us We get, what we take.

Wow... I just love the example you have given about Tiger. Unfortunately , after 9 mins approx video stopped for me.. Love how you explained the word FOCUS . Really we should observe and focus before taking any kind of decisions. Thanks for your motivational words. These words will help me a lot in near future @theycallmedan .

I got to get myself some more Steem Power! :)

You got me fired up Dan. :)

Loading...

Thanks @theycallmedan for this piece of knowledge.. Congratulations to you.

Hehe. All these whales flocking for some motivational elixir and im here sitting with my 5k STEEM and drained voting power thinking

Hell yeah! GET SOME!

Not really. Hehe.

Im hungry as fuck which is why i do Steemit and Whaleshares and Steem monsters and Drugwars and trade Buildteam tokens and whatever the hell there is to do.

Do you know what that will amount to? Ill be able to buy me a fine bottle of Jack once a week if STEEM hits 3-4 USD.
Great video... But lets be honest here. You and me have different destinations even if we share the same path.
My time is not now, yours and the orca/whale folks, is.

My time, if then, comes after the next ATH and the coming crash after....

All that you, and guys like you need to do is play the waiting game and take what comes your way.
Folks like me are those that do the drilling and clawing.. Wer the folks that dont need the motivational pick-ups.
Motivation is the only thing we have.

Hehe. Just a few thoughts that ended up corny in the end.

Keep on Steemin. ;)

Go back and look at my old youtube videos. Before the last bull market in 2017 I started with 1500. You actually had a head start on me. The time is NOW and it always is NOW. I didn't let circumstances stop me from doing what I did. Money is just a number on a screen, but that heart inside your chest is real, use that to the extent you can. Cheers.

Money is just a number on a screen.

Well yeah, it is literally just that. This is crypto wer talking about.. :)

Maybe i overreacted a bit, now that i read the comment, but still, circumstances differ and some things do not apply the same to everyone, which was my point..
cheers.

Sorry man, Dtube is still loading very slow.
Did you also upload on YouTube?

I quit youtube.

Oh, I couldn't watch your video.
So sad..
