I never used any social media apps (insta, twitter etc) before. Didn't really feel the connection to it. When I got to know about Farcaster I was hooked. I actually wanted to go deeper into the Web3 communities & it seemed like the best thing to do. Now, I use /firstdraft to stay accountable with my writing practice and different channels/people to stay up-to-date in the cryptoverse. But I think the main reason is authenticity. Web2 social Media is full of fake & un-realness. On farcaster the vibe is different, people are much more open, vulnerable, transparent & real!

Not an amazing week, but recognizing that binary yes/no doesn’t capture the depth of the activities I did Would love to eventually get back up to daily meditation

I feel some shame around presenting my work, when it is not perfect. This week Life came in between me & the writing, so I had not so much time & I couldn't double check if everything is correct (grammar, typos, story etc.). But, the more I write, the more I let go of this urge to chase perfection. To put it raw, just like that, in /firstdraft feels fricking amazing!!! About the story: Bodhilama still tries to break trough the sunflower. Yet, if the hammer is not working, what else can he do? https://paragraph.xyz/new/@bodhilama/breaking-through-the-sunflower-pt-2

That's the spirit! When you force yourself to get something out there, you learn that it doesn't need to be perfect :) Looking forward to seeing you build up a streak!
