Hospitality is something that most Steemians don't get right. They are "nice" and "friendly" to everyone to hopefully not insult them so that they don't get downvoted.
People wear masks everywhere. Now where we have something that can't be censored they are still wearing their masks like someone with a shotgun is standing behind them telling them to be nice otherwise he will steal all their money or kill them.
Look, people, if your blog is fucking boring -> B/W challenges, food recipes, cryptocurrency posts and other bullshit that nobody gives a fuck about then nobody will read it & honestly be interested in it!
People only come to your blog for that cash (if you have a high rep or a fuckton of Steem Power).
Write about something interesting without censoring your words and people will actually read your blog. Many people tell me how they laughed or raged at "this or that" post. And I hear that often.
This would be good feedback for everyone because that means you actually have readers. People are your guests on your blog so put your fucking mask off!
Hospitality on Steem in a Nutshell:
-Don't be fake
-Reply to all comments
-You don't have to welcome everyone, mute idiots
With that said let's talk about Hospitality in real life (hospitality is, by the way, one of the 9 noble virtues)
Hospitality in Real Life
People tell me that I have to work on my hospitality but they don't understand what that means. This is what hospitality means in real life:
1. You help strangers at your door if they need your help (for example a neighbor asking for milk). That doesn't mean that you help people that will just abuse you. I, for example, would never give strangers money.
2. It means to serve your guest's food, drink and that you entertain them. Be a good host!
3. You will have to make sure that your guests are save aka that you protect them.
That is hospitality in real life!

You are fast becoming my morning dose of 'reality bites' and AHA moments. My own Steemit posting strategy is a combination to hold nothing back and making a difference too.
Have to work harder on answering my comments part.

Being yourself is the most important thing in life.
Better people like for who I am than to have 10 fold over the amount of FAKE likes.

you wrote what I was just thinking. I have few followers here but the ones I have like me for me because I don't know how to be anyone but that.
Being yourself, as you said, is the key.
The people that try and follow and be like someone else lose them selfs for a few "likes" which is sad to see.

@snook , at the end of the day, numbers don't matter, they are just numbers, it's the people that matter!

Don't be fooled, left or right or what ever, they are just human beings, just as many good and bad people on both sides of that fence too.
Life has taught me that there is only one form of what people yell out to be racism today:
"if you are good, then OK, I respect you too. If you are an asshole, then get the fuck away from me and my family and my friends, I don't have any respect for assholes"
Life has also taught me that there is only one what they now call political correctness that is acceptable:
"be who and what you are, be honest, sincere, good people respect honesty and sincerity, even if it can be a little painful at times"
Maybe I'm just an old fart who has seeen a fair bit and is beginning to realize that life is too short to waste.

"Just human beings" which translates to nobodies.
Life is indeed too short to waste. That is why I only care about the people that I have chosen to be important for me and the other way around.
Everyone else can die and I wouldn't care.
I only spend my time with making cash, learning, lifting weights, networking with people that I consider worth it, the people that I have chosen for me and the other way around and playing guitar.
Everything else is hedonism for me. I don't care about the morals and ethics of society. I piss and shit on the face of society and all it's fucked up lies, slavery and hedonism.
My ancestors of the old tribes are happy they ain't part of this world anymore.

The world has definitely changed, in some ways for good and in other ways for the worse.
We can change technology, we can change our understanding of things, but we shall never change human nature.

Law of nature will never change.
I can highly recommend the book "Might is Right" by Ragnar Redbeard.
It is the truth in book format and highly entertaining. Absolutely savage.
"“Govenment is founded on property
Property is founded on conquest
Conquest is founded on power
All power is founded on brain and brawn.”
― Ragnar Redbeard, Might is Right"
“The natural world is a world of war; the natural man is a warrior; the natural law is tooth and claw. All else is error. A condition of combat everywhere exists. We are born into perpetual conflict. It is our inheritance, even as it was the heritage of previous generations.”
― Ragnar Redbeard, Might is Right
“Equality can only exist between equals.
Civilization implies division of labor, division of labor implies subordination and subordination implies injustice and inequality.”
― Ragnar Redbeard

I agree with you people but not with the phrase "be yourself".
I am an Odinist and self-improvement is the modus operandi. I will be a better and therefore different person tomorrow and every day after that till the day I have access to the golden halls.
That is why I write to "remove your mask" -> it means to be who you are on that day.
Enjoy my upvotes for the courage of being yourselves instead of wearing masks.

and at that time, on that day.
As what and who I am changes with each passing minute. Somedays I can swear like a sailor and other days I can not get past Fffffff, for a tiny example.
but I am always me. I would like someday, to have a better vocabulary when I'm mad or need to emphasize something important than using the word Fuck! and I'm sure my son would too loll
as you and @jackmiller have seemed to wrote a book while I slept I will just add my 2 cents and say I think you both are correct.
I think you both say the same thing but look at it from different angles and as I'm still not really awake I will hope that both your days are going great! as you both gave me the gift of reading and thinking this morning.

Whoever is right here (might is right anyway), what counts is that we are all dropping our masks.
That is a rule on my discord by the way, fake people and liars will receive a warning and the next time they act or lie they will be banned.

Oh! the tangled webs of discord :D
Yes, I'm just rambling :D it's what I do because for me there is always 3 sides of a story.
and now I just made myself laugh imagining someone new on your channel sitting there afraid to say anything :D Thank you for that!
Oh! Steemit just got a new format for comments! when I went to add the last part in. It's really nicer this way!

You are building upon your foundation, so you are you, every day of your life on this earth, you are you, an individual, unique in every which way.
So we are on the same line with that, bettering yourself every day is something that makes you who and what you are, don't change that, it is great to see people like you who have a commitment to being good people who want to be the best that they can be.

I agree with most of what you wrote.
Bettering yourself every day is something that makes you who and what you are. -> No, it makes you better aka a different person.
You are building upon your foundation, so you are you, every day of your life on this earth, -> I am me right now, but in the future, I will be somebody else stuck in my body.
Being yourself means to be yourself and not to improve yourself to become better in the future. However, if improving yourself means to be yourself then yeah you could say that I am myself doing that because I will never stop doing that.
To come to the conclusion that improving myself now belongs to myself I had to go through ruthless self-improvement.
This discussion is deep.

Hey, what's wrong with recipes, crypto posts and bullshit? There's an audience for those too. I don't get the B/W challenge so I won't comment on that.
But yes, even though my topics are all over, I feel they all have a consistent style to them. It's all me in the end. 100% real. Although, come to think of it, there's some posts where I pretend to be my dog, but hey that's still me too.

Agree there is an audience for that. It is all about making cash here so whatever gets you cash is indeed a good thing to do.
However, if you ain't having fun and you ain't gaining real followers that always come back to read and comment on your posts then you are missing out.
