When Life Give's You Lemons, Plant Oranges

I've always loved the phrase:

When life gives you Lemons, make Lemonade.

It's how I used to run my life, always reacting to whatever was thrown my way, always cushioning the circumstances the world would throw at me.

But lately I've been seeing life a little different.

Doing something different and standing out from the crowd is always the best way to get ahead. When BRO first started it was the first ever non-stake drip token on hive.

But after that we sort of continued on the same trajectory, building on the same path, reacting to the micro and macro environments, and just doing much of the same that everyone else was.

Of course people at the beginning said what I was doing couldn't be done; there were doubters and haters, and even people that likened what I was building to bitconnect.

Then we created LGN, and we airdropped it onto people; and everyone managed to get their fill or save it for another day.

We had big plans for LGN but sadly the well dried up and we had to start off at ground level again.

Thankfully, we've been building.

Yet, here we are, 8 years later, still going strong with prices relatively the same. Doing our thing.

If I'm honest there's been quite a bit of stagnation with us and a lot of other projects -- of course, we've had our roadblocks and such, but we soldier on regardless.

Recently I've realised that if you want to get ahead then you need to be different. You need to stand out from the crowd.

That's why if you come to our discord these days it's different. We aren't doing the same as everyone else, and yes, it's a bit mystical, some may say even magical if you are able to let go.

That's why I'm saying if life gives you Lemons, Plant Oranges. Be different.

People will look at the Oranges strangely, some will laugh at you for planting oranges, and some will just outright ignore you for it.

Until if course they taste the sweet juicy nectar of the orange; they'll tell their friends, people will flock to get a taste of something they've never experienced before.

That's why I say if you want to make a real difference in life then you really need to start off differently. Be prepared to be laughed at and mocked.

Expect people that don't understand what you're building to not understand. You can't explain a Television to someone from the 1800's.

Think of it like this:

Every project has wolves. The wolves love crypto.

The wolves see prices and charts and love to take profits when the prices are hot -- the wolves also spoil it for the community.

Just about every crypto community I've ever been in has been destroyed by wolves.

... but

But what if the wolves burst into the discord to feast on the bones of the hopefuls but all they see is grain, soil, and seeds -- what do the wolves do then?

The wolves aren't interested in that at all -- the wolves want the blood of the innocent.

So they leave in search of a better feast leaving ours as a lost cause.

This is what I'm creating.

A place where people can win, but also the harvest can be protected!

Only the people that understand the flame may gain inner access to timings, rituals, events, and so on.

The rest? Can enjoy the ride! :)
