I believe that this is quite common. There is no shortage of calories but there is a shortage of time. We may have all the soft drinks and sugary foods available in the world to power carefully thinking through everything we need to but we lack the time. I find it highly inconvenient to not have much control over what my brain decides is worthy of paying attention to. It would be extremely useful to have to ability to have a laser-like focus on whatever one chooses or must focus on instead of having a brain that essentially has a mind of its own (sic!) when it comes to attention.

Steem is feels highly addictive and not work at all. Getting paid for doing this feels unreal. Is work really like this for some people? What I'm really hoping is for there to be thousands of pay-to-pay apps to create enough demand for STEEM and SBD to cause their price to grow tenfold from their current values and become true utility tokens disconnected in valuation from crypto hype. STEEM and SBD having a firm basis of value, thousands of communities to choose from and and enough SP might make it be possible for a generalist to earn a decent living by becoming a useful member of a number of specialist communities. I believe Steem Power to be the key to access to any such community as it will enable one to fund its activities through control over the reward pool.
