I love social media & web3 🌸

- How I organized a photo shoot in a few hours.
When I woke up, I decided that today was Valentine's Day and it was the perfect excuse for a photo shoot.
I didn't have much time left to organize this event.
I'm a shy person and very afraid of the camera. I have hardly any pictures of me on my phone.
I would never have decided to do this if my daughter wasn't home on vacation right now.
Which means I have a photographer I trust.
My plan for today that you can use for your photo shoots as well:
1. Determine the purpose-what you want the photos for.
2. Find a photographer ( it can be a sister or a friend).
3. Book a place in a photo studio or think about where there is a good background for the photos (houses, cafes, parks).
4. On Pinterest, type in a search for: photo shoot, poses for photos.
5. Choose references for photos that you will repeat in your photo shoot.
6. Think through a few images - choose clothes that you will be comfortable in and that will fit together.
7. Be sure to bring a good mood with you.
Happy Valentine's Day! 🩷
- Have you ever noticed that you sometimes get into the future when you buy a product or service?
It's easy to understand. Your eyes are smiling at that moment.
When I experience this, I realize that I have made the right choice.
- How to motivate a user to write an app review.
Ask the user to leave a review in exchange for some bonus or an invite for a friend (if it's a beta version).
You'll get a review and possibly a new user.
This option is more appropriate than automatically posting on social media that a new user has joined the app. When I see such an offer, I lose the desire to use this app.
- 3 thoughts that would have made my life easier if they had come to me sooner:
1. Don't trust people who break the chain of command and allow themselves too much in communication.
2. If a certain person evokes unpleasant emotions, you need to eliminate communication with them.
3. Either you take from a person what you need and what was agreed upon. Or, by giving weakness, you agree to little. In the end, this weakness of yours can cost you dearly.
- If you feel like the whole world is wrong, maybe the problem is you?
- Where to get content ideas for the project?
Imagine your customer is at point A and wants to get to point B.
Your project is what will help him get to point B.
What objections and questions does the customer have along the way?
He doesn't know where to start.
He's afraid to take the first step.
What steps and in what sequence does he need to take?
What problems will he face?
He doesn't know what he will get in the end.
He doesn't know if he needs it.
He doesn't understand how your project will help him.
He doesn't understand why he should choose your project.
He wants to know what results he will get.
Has someone already gotten results from your project?
Will he be able to replicate someone else's success?
How long will it take?
Is now the best time to do it?
Is the result worth the money spent?
What will he lose if he doesn't take advantage of your offer?
How will your project change his life?
The question of price.
Etc.
By answering the questions your customer is asking himself, you'll have a content plan for months to come.
It's always worth remembering that the customer wants to hear what they're going to get, not how cool you are.
- When you really want sushi, you have to make sure you eat it.
Because until you do, you won't be satisfied 😂
- Sometimes everything develops at a fast speed and then suddenly comes to a standstill.
This moment cannot be missed and you need to take some action.
This starts the process again.
- People who constantly doubt their knowledge are actually more competent than those who think they are the smartest.
- My biggest fuck up today 🤭
I mistook shampoo for conditioner. I hope this mistake doesn't cost me my hair and it stays in its place 😂
- You know what sets social media apart from each other?
The conversations that take place there.
It's similar to how people in different countries communicate in different languages.
People used to spend time on one social network, now we're traveling to different locations.
And I like that.
- Under Mosseri's latest Instagram reel, you can see a lot of angry comments from users of the platform.
Among the most frequent complaints is that followers don't see their content, not even family and friends. Creators see no point in investing their time and creativity into a social network whose algorithms drive them crazy.
Also, there are comments that instead of listening to users, new features are constantly being added to the platform. Which makes the creators even more annoyed.
Some users have shared that their friends have left Instagram because of the unpredictable algorithms and content creation to nowhere.
Do you use Instagram and if so, what do you like about the platform and what don't you like?
- When unpleasant moments from the past come up, I remind myself that I am not in the past or the future. I am now. And that's all that matters.
- My husband makes perfect cottage cheese pancakes 😋
In fact, this is an indicator of a high level of skill. If you can make cottage cheese pancakes, you can make any dish.
- True or false?
At school I was not allowed to attend the final exam because the principal did not like my appearance and I had to go home to change my clothes.
Am I telling the truth or is this a lie? And share your fact and I'll try to guess.
- The smaller the range of responsibilities, the more you should be prepared that even a minor mistake will not be forgiven.
When the job is multitasking, mistakes are possible, and that's normal.
In any case, curiosity doesn't hurt. Even if you are the smallest link in the chain, study the entire traffic route.
- The next time you think about why am I even doing all this, for what?
Don't view your actions in a format just for yourself.
Your actions and the result you are striving for will trigger a series of events not only for your family, but also for your friends and even those you don't know yet.
You have the power to change not only your own life, but the lives of others as well.
Think about it and keep fighting.
I'm sure you've already played a meaningful role in someone's life, just as someone has influenced your destiny.
- What do you think the railings along the road are for?
If you guess, you will realize how free you are.
- Staying calm and reacting quickly in a state of stress and uncertainty, focusing on the solution rather than the problem, helps a lot to fight despair and anxiety.
- I associate December with tangerines, don't you? 🍊
- Best insight in a while: try to get at least one insight every day.
- Today ❄️
- Hi! Long time no see 😽
Don't be surprised that I'm speaking on behalf of a cat. It's a whole trend in content. Perhaps someone has wanted to start a channel for their pet for a long time, but didn't realize what direction to take.
It sounds weird, but you can voice your cats and dogs if you can read their minds 😅
- I've heard of an interesting way of practicing memory.
Math examples with time.
For example: 16:44-13:56=?
It's kind of like a crossword puzzle, only mathematical.
- Imagine you only use one social network and it becomes unavailable at one point.
What action would you take right now if you knew this would happen tomorrow?
- Do not place too much importance on resources. They usually emerge in the process.
- What do you think it is?
- One day I saw a photo with a beautiful view. At that moment I thought that I would like to be in that place someday.
I wanted several times to unsubscribe from the blogger I saw that photo from, but I didn't. Because I had doubts that then I wouldn't see this place with my own eyes 🤪
Do you have a place that you envision in your dreams?
- What would you do if you were sure of success?
The answer makes sense.
- Even though the Hospital doesn't celebrate Halloween, it's the perfect place to celebrate.
Here you can hear the scariest stories imaginable..
Happy Halloween, everyone 🦇👻
- Lens V2 launching tomorrow, which is a huge upgrade in capabilities and capacity over V1!
The biggest change IMO: Smart Posts. You can now add arbitrary “open actions” to publications, which are basically remote calls made to smart contracts on any EVM chain. Collecting is an example of an Open Action in V2. You can imagine things like minting on Zora or OpenSea directly from within a Lens post.
Also no more whitelisting needed for third party modules as V2 is open. And with Profile Manager you can allow any address to take action on your part, making using cold wallets possible.
Lens was already the most powerful social protocol in web3 and V2 takes it up another level.
- In case anyone is wondering how the hospital feeds)
I think that in addition to treatment, there is a goal that patients gain at least a couple of kilos during their stay here 🤪
- Looks like someone's having a good time without me 🎃👻
- 🍁🍂
- Everyone in my room is already asleep.
I can't sleep this early. It's the coolest time when everyone is asleep.
I went out into the hospital corridor so I wouldn't disturb anyone.
It's a good time to listen to my favorite music 💛🍂
- First night in the hospital. I don't know how much I'm stuck here. Had a bunch of tests, started a course of treatment. I'd forgotten that injections hurt so much 🤪
- Just a reminder.
The search for self and the meaning of life is not limited by time.
- October 15 is the day to make wishes ✨
Don't ask me how I know that 😂
- It seems like Charlie hasn't been here in a while 😅🐱💤
- A simple truth, but we often forget it.
If we want a different result, we have to do different actions.
- Today ☀️
- Just think about how many opportunities we miss by thinking today is not the time.. hoping for tomorrow.
- Where and with whom you want to be in three years. What does your typical day look like?
A simple practice, but it evokes strong emotions. Now your brain knows what to strive for.
- One person had a dream in which all people were communicating in the same language - the language of numbers.
Would you like to be in that dream?
- If you feel a state of hopelessness, know that you can handle everything. I believe in you 💛
- Level 2🪕😅
- Today I went to the polyclinic with my daughter. There was a long line to the pediatrician. And it's chaos.
Do you think anyone wants to clean up this chaos?
No. It's very convenient.
Because people are thinking about how to get to their doctor's appointments, what to make for dinner, etc.
They don't have time to think about anything else.
- Sharing a screenshot from something I built for the @ethglobal Superhack Hackathon last week.
I believe a privacy-preserving "Proof of Personhood" represents a lot of new opportunities, not only in Web3, but on the web.
I know the Worldcoin Orb freaks people out, but it's an open source, highly reliable solution to the bot issue. Being able to use Zero-Knowledge proofs to verify personhood on-chain unlocks so many possibilities.
Trustless and permissionless exchange between **people**.
The latest "Bad Bot Report" stated that nearly 50% of all internet traffic came from bots in 2022. PoP might just be the thing that cuts through the noise, introduces accountability, and allows Web3 to fulfill its potential.
- I love it when there's a sense that you're at the beginning and there are lots of exciting discoveries ahead 😋
