I got the idea for this post by listening to Lewis Howes’ podcast, The School of Greatness. One of his invited guests, Jaspreet Singh, was explaining something about confidence and competence in regard to managing one’s money mindset.
Sounds to me like an apt description of posting on Stacker News. It encourages me to be 1% better every day and fuels my rank in the following areas:
-
Control - I have a ton of things to do at work, some of which are imposed on me as a result of tardy processes. I might have felt frustrated in the past, but here I am, posting my thoughts on SN instead. I may be filled to the brim, but I can still steal moments to fulfill my writing goals.
-
Confidence - I post my thoughts on territories which charge anything from 1 to 402 sats. This may be unwarranted arrogance but I do feel confident that I can recoup my posting fee. My thoughts are worthy enough.
-
Competence - I have learnt that anything that happens to me can be curated into a post. I think I’m better at extracting the story worthiness out of an incident and expanding on it. On paper, my days blend absentmindedly into one another, but I will like to believe that I live my days intentionally because I write.
Gotta rush to prepare my student for emceeing duties for next week’s Spelling Bee. 🐝 Have a good day ahead!
