For YouTubers, Twitch streamers, and Facebook pages, especially those of gaming video creators like me, I am seeing the opportunity to focus more on what I am giving than what I am receiving because what I pay attention to, seems to grow.
Shift From a Focus on Views and Likes to Quality and Interaction
I have noticed the unhappiest parts of my life included a huge focus on "what do I want?" and "what I am getting?" while the happiest times in my life are "how may I help?" and "who am I helping?"
While today the majority of my life is centered on service and giving, I just noticed that I have an opportunity to withdraw a bit of attention from the number of views and engagement I am getting on each live gaming video which frees my attention to better look at who I am helping.
I am doing this by removing the part of my interface that shows how my reactions and views the video is getting because this is too much of a distraction for me. During the live stream, I am often checking the views and modify my excitement based on the view count.
This kind of thinking leaves me feeling excited after a stream with a lot of views and disappointed when the views are less. When I focus on what I am contributing, I see that the views and reactions are none of my business on each post.
You give back what you want to, based on what I have given in terms of responding to what you have to say and the presence/vibe I bring to the stream. If you think this might be a minor detail, try applying it to something most important like a relationship.

thanks.
I've noticed the big drop-off in Steemit users @jerrybanfield and it's a bummer. How do you feel about it? Hopefully the platform can recover. Keep up the good work.
it's all because of this bizarre revelation of what Jerry is REALLY all about that initially destroyed the buzz for many... this was right when STEEM value was first collapsing:

I couldn't watch because the link was unsecure but...I'd read through the comments. Pretty brutal. Not sure what he said but....it couldn't have been good.
