The empowr coin is live! Now what?

The empowr coin is live! Now what?

Congratulations to the entire empowr community!

This is what you have accomplished:

1. You came up with the concept of transitioning to cryptocurrency.

2. You then completed the research, devised the strategy, wrote the whitepaper, recruited the personnel, architected and completed the execution and re-engineering of the empowr virtual currency, products and methods.

3. You funded the entire process without a penny from investors, “crypto whales” or any of the many other (sometimes shady) crypto characters.

4. You educated yourselves and the community on everything from blockchain, to Ethereum, to how to operate an exchange.

5. And yesterday, you ensured the empowr coin had a successful launch on the currency exchange.

A big congratulations on a job well done:

empowr is now the first fully-encompassed democratic social economy with its own tradeable currency.

And empowr still belongs to the community, not rich investors.

This was a truly historic accomplishment given all the variables, moving parts, selfless decisions and sacrifices that were required by everyone.

The coin launch was the beginning, not the end.

What do we need to do now? What is the plan?

We have a lot of new members with us, so let’s start with a high level reminder of what we’re trying to do.

Then, we’ll drill down to what each of us can do to succeed.

1. The community’s mission is to empower people by enabling opportunity, hope and influence for them.

Our goal is to serve half the world’s population – including those currently living on $2 or less per day -- by the year 2025:

1. To serve that many people, we must grow our coin supply as follows:

2. To successfully serve 4 billion people with that more limited coin supply as shown above, we’ll want to grow the value of our coin approximately like this:

The empowr coin is live! Now what?

I am confident that we can accomplish the above, given all the years (nearly 2 decades) you’ve already invested in building the platform, techniques and community.

Everyone’s interests are fully aligned

Based on everything that has already been accomplished, we are now in an incredibly fortunate position to say:

For the empowr mission and platform to succeed, you – as an individual -- must succeed.

That is, your success and the mission’s success are now one and the same.

empowr cannot succeed unless you are succeeding.

So, what’s the best thing YOU can do – starting RIGHT NOW -- to succeed?

I believe your success boils down to only three (3) things:

1. Every day, hit your daily goal

By simply doing that, you’re growing a network of trust and reciprocity.

Big success requires the help of others. Hitting your daily goal ensures that others will always be there for you, to help you earn.

1. Earn mission points

The more mission points you earn:

A. the more you’re earning from your activities such as providing products and services to others, and helping others succeed.

B. the more coins will be provided to you by the mission wheel. The purpose of the wheel is to encourage and amplify (reward) your success, by appearing each time you hit your daily goal.

C. the larger your power (your influence) to create positive change and progress in the empowr democracy.

1. Protect your reputation and ratings

Work hard to earn and maintain high ratings as a provider (seller), buyer, success coach and the other roles you play in the empowr economy.

I cannot stress this point highly enough

Your high ratings significantly increase your ability to earn and succeed, in more ways than most people will ever fully understand.

The empowr marketplace, earning and other algorithms work openly and, in many cases quietly, to encourage and boost the success of empowr citizens with high ratings; as well as to slow down and block those with the lower ratings from participating in the economy.

On the darker side, empowr is unique in that cheaters usually don’t get their accounts immediately deleted when detected. Bad actors often get no visual signs whatsoever that they’ve been caught.

Instead, the system works quietly to give them hope in the short term, while enforcing maximum frustration on them in the long term.

Please, I hope you are hearing me on this point

You really, really want to ensure your ratings and reputation are maximized.

And that’s it.

Do the above three (3) things and your success will take care of itself

Yes, that success will also include a growing ownership of empowr coins.

And as the number of people -- that understand and follow the above simple formula -- grows, so will the value of the empowr coins.

What NOT to do

One of the worst things you can do, is to now waste your limited energy focusing on the price of the coin. In the short term, the coin’s price will go up and down, based on all sorts of factors.

By investing your valuable energy or emotions thinking about (or worst, worrying about) the price of coin from one moment to the next, you will miss out.

On the other hand, if you develop the ability to have faith in the process and focus your limited time and energy on the three (3) steps mentioned above, your success will follow.

Like anywhere else, in empowr success is about the ability to focus

Do you have the ability to focus on what matters the most in your life...

... that is, those things that YOU have decided make the biggest difference AND you've got the most control over?

And do you have the ability to ignore the things that matter the least in your life...

... that is, the things that YOU have decided make the least difference OR you've got the least control over?

If so, you will be just fine.

If you cannot focus, however, like everything and everywhere else in life, you will also have a more difficult time in empowr.

The good news is that focusing on what matters (and ignoring what does not) is a skill that can be learned, practiced and improved on a continual basis.

When you find yourself focused on something that you have previously decided "matters less", simply notice that and move the camera of your mind back to what it needs to be focused on.

Make a commitment right now

So, starting today, with this massive project of moving to the empowr coin behind us...

... let’s all pick up right where we left off 6 months ago – before we all got distracted by the important cryptocurrency project.

Starting right now, let’s get back to the work of providing value to our fellow empowr citizens in the economy - by simply following the 3 steps mentioned above.

What about the focus of empowr employees?

Relating to the coin, there are still a few loose ends we need to complete. We are focused on completing those items.

Aside from any upcoming announcements relating to those items, I can promise you that -- going forward – you will hear less from empowr employees about the coin.

Instead, we will be turning our attention back to listening to what empowr citizens most want – everything from new features, to bug fixes and resolving issues – and working hard to deliver those items to you.
