      "body": "![1_0gTsk82jnZxzm50cw-wMfA.jpeg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVhFsEWKXXKUzsgPqszpYxYhn7mGKanQ5sun3rw17BiYt/1_0gTsk82jnZxzm50cw-wMfA.jpeg)\n\nCredits: source\nAfter writing about Steem and Blockchains in the earlier blogs, I thought this would be right time to discuss the Cryptocurrencies involved in the Steem-Blockchain. Although there is material on the Internet to learn about the Steem-Blockchain and all the cryptocurrencies on it. But this version comes with a simple analogy for those who don’t want to go down into the technical and mathematical structure of it.\n\nA quick intro for the new people.\n\nWhat is Steemit?\nThe Steem is an open-source Blockchain. The most familiar platform on top of Steem-Blockchain is Steemit. Steemit is a blogging platform built on top of it. On Steemit, people earn rewards in form of cryptocurrency when their blogs get upvoted by other users of the Steemit.\n\nYou may think of Steem-Blockchain as a power-plant and steemit as a machine run by its power. The same power-plant can be used to build any kind of content rewarding platform, that is why we call it open-source.\n\nI’ll use steemit’s example in this blog to talk about the Steem, Steem Power (SP), and Steem Dollars (SBD).\n\nNow the question is —\n\nWhy three different Cryptocurrencies?\nThere are three asset class on Steem: Steem, Steem-power (SP), and Steem-dollars (SBD).\n\nDifferent assets for different purpose gives more control over the functioning of platform. It also provide clear ways to contribute, earn from, and hold power in — the system.\n\nIn the technical terms, Steem is the base currency, traded on the exchanges. All other currencies derive their value from Steem. Steem Power is native currency to the platform which cannot be traded directly on exchanges. Steem Dollars (Steem Blockchain Dollars) is another currency for rewards, traded on the exchanges.\n\nThe authors (people publishing blogs on steemit) and curators (people upvoting valuable content on steemit) are rewarded with SBD and SP. Users may choose to earn 100% SP or 50–50 SP and SBD both when publishing post.\n\nThe witnesses — people who contribute their computing power to the Steem Blockchain) are rewarded with SP.\n\nThis sums up a lot of Steem Blockchain. But there is more to it.\n\nA simple example to understand the STEEM, Steem Power (SP) and Steem Blockchain Dollars (SBD)\nThink of Steem-Blockchain as a gold mine. Steemit as a tool to mine this gold. And users use this tool for mining.\n\nThe mine produces fixed amount of gold every day. In the world of Steemit, we call this gold ‘STEEM’. The Steem (gold) is traded by the people in the market (online cryptocurrency exchanges). They buy it on a speculative price and keep it (hold) with them to sell later when the prices go up. Why the prices will ever go up? Because the Steem has many use cases; it is useful and scarce.\n\nThe value of Steem is exactly the amount at which people are trading it in the market. The trust of the buyers and holders (the one who own Steem) gives it a price on the exchange.\n\nSP and SBD\nThe Blockchain algorithm (program) produces SP and SBD in correlation with the Steem generated everyday.\n\nThe SP and SBD are derivatives of the Steem (Gold). Just like ornaments and gold coins are two different derivatives of the gold with different purpose. The role of SP and SBD in the Steem Blockchain makes the whole system functional.\n\nRemember: The Steem comes first out of the Steem-Blockchain which is traded in the market. Then Steem-Blockchain produces SP and SBD which has some use cases on the Steemit (same use case of SP & SBD on other Steem Blockchain based platforms).\n\nHow to earn SP and SBD?\nTo earn SP and SBD we need to mine them. Mining is equal to contributing to the platform.\n\nOn Steem-Blockchain, there are two ways to contribute —\n\nBy writing blogs, commenting, and up-voting on steemit. This is called proof-of-brain mining. The idea is that the people who write useful blogs will attract more up-votes. The users will not up-vote the content which is not useful. The bloggers will earn SP and SBD (50–50%) when they receive upvotes. They may choose to get 100% SP or decline to receive any payout. The amount of SP and SBD they receive depends upon how much Steem Power (SP) does the up-voter hold (explained in the later part).\nBy giving computing power to the network (It is a decentralized application, there is no central server. People run a software on their own computer to keep the network up). In this kind of mining the miners earn based on the efforts they put in to keep steemit fair by reporting spam, up-voting good content, and increasing the computer power to support the users and keep it all functional. They are called ‘Witness’ (miners)on the Steem Blockchain. The witnesses earn ‘Steem Power’ in proportion of the work they do to keep the Steem Blockchain up and running.\nNext obvious question is?\n\nHow to gain Steem Power (SP)?\nApart from becoming a witness (miner), there is a way to earn steem power.\n\nBy contributing useful content and up-voting (curating) valuable content on Steemit.com, user can earn SP. The SP is directly proportional to how much value does your up-vote has on the platform i.e. how much the author will earn out of your up-vote.\n\nDepending on the SP a user holds on Steem, their influence is calculated. Higher SP means more influence on the platform.\n\nPowering up and powering down\n\nCredits: source [Thank you @ninzacode for creating this]\nAll the three assets (Steem, SP, and SBD) can be converted to one another. Some conversions are direct and some are indirect. The picture above explains it simply.\n\nPowering up: Converting Steem to SP called powering up. It can be easily done on Steemit and any other Steem Blockchain platforms.\n\nPowering down: Converting Steem Power to Steem is called powering down. The user gets the Steem in vesting period of 13 weeks, in 13 equal installments.\n\nThe Definitions —\nSteem\nSTEEM is the base liquid currency token in the platform. STEEM can be powered up into Steem Power, traded for Steem Dollars, or transferred to other accounts. It is a cryptocurrency token, similar to bitcoin.\nTradeable tokens that may be transferred anywhere at anytime.\nSteem Power\nSteem Power (abbreviated SP) is a measurement of how much influence a user has in the Steem network. The more Steem Power a user holds, the more they can influence the value of posts and comments. Steem Power is less liquid. If a user wishes to “Power Down” SP, they will receive equal distributions of the STEEM weekly, over a 13 week period.\nInfluence tokens which give you more control over post payouts and allow you to earn on curation rewards.\nSteem Power can also be delegated. Delegation means donated SP to new users to help them perform actions on steemit.\nSteem Dollars\nSteem Dollars (commonly abbreviated SBD) are liquid stable-value currency tokens designed to be pegged to $1 USD. Steem Dollars can be traded with STEEM, and transferred to other accounts for commerce or exchange. Steem Dollars may also be converted into STEEM via a process that takes 3.5 days.\nIt is similar to Bitcoin. Steem Dollars will be used on Steem based platforms in future to access various services on the platform.\nI hope this piece explains the key differentiation between all three Steem Blockchain currencies and their purpose.",

There’s something farcical about these events. The news reports read like parodies, send-ups of capitalism’s vagaries, humorous exaggerations of what a world where everything is privatized might look like. Except it’s really happening. The concept of the public good is eroding to nothingness in the U.S.\n\nWide-scale privatization and austerity budgets have squeezed plenty of countries. Libraries have closed due to lack of resources, and roads go unrepaired. Nevertheless, outside of the United States, most government officials, pundits, and academics seem to recognize the odious vulgarity of suggesting that multinational corporations take over absolutely everything. Appearances must be kept, after all.\n\nMeanwhile, diabetes patients in the world’s wealthiest nation are being price-gouged when buying insulin and dying from lack of access when their crowdfunding attempts fail. Simultaneously, people are crowdfunding so a multimillionaire heiress cum reality star cum cosmetics magnate can join the billionaire club. Workers at Amazon warehouses are under so much pressure to produce that they urinate into bottles at random locations in their workplace; their boss, meanwhile, has become the richest human being in modern history.\n\nGrind.\n\nHustle.\n\n24/7/365.\n\nSleep when you’re dead.\n\nThese are the grim taglines of Toxic Ambition Twitter and Entrepreneur Influencer Instagram. Before all the hit dogs start hollering, let me state clearly: Hard work is good, it is character-building, and there’s a reason it’s exhorted in every culture. That’s not what this is, though. This is a particular form of blinkered hypercapitalism — one with all the context removed, one where externalities (positive or negative) are never considered. It’s about amassing wealth and being paid attention to for it. It’s the attention, the likes and retweets, that drive the culture.\n\nBut while the naked covetousness and writhing insecurity underlying much of #RiseAndGrind culture is extremely gross, what I really can’t stand is the way economically exploitative structures — particularly regarding employment — are exalted by it.\n\nThose workers peeing in corners of Amazon warehouses are working hard. They’re grinding. They’re hustling so hard they can’t find the time to take care of their bodily functions. Some are so overworked, their mental health deteriorates to the point that they begin to contemplate suicide. The necessary labor they’re performing to get products shipped isn’t valued. It’s not sexy enough for The ’Gram. The announcement of Bezos’ wealth ballooning up over $150 billion, though? That goes on the vision board.\n\nInstead of criticizing this structure where workers are abused and one man hoards most of the wealth being generated, workers pushed to the point of mental breakdown will be encouraged to start a side hustle and denigrated as “soft” if they’re unable to. Bezos’ villainy will not only be excused as “just capitalism” but held up as something to admire, because “Bezos built a business from nothing!” Not really. His parents invested nearly $250,000 in Amazon when he started the company. Having parents who can kick in a quarter of a million dollars isn’t starting from nothing.\n\nGet-rich-quick schemes are as American as Mom and apple pie, but I don’t know if they’ve ever been as weaponized as they are now.\nThere is grit jamming up the moral gears of #RiseAndGrind culture. Most of the people posting to this and related hashtags are closer in origin and fortune to an Amazon warehouse worker, but their allegiance is to the Jeff Bezoses, Elon Musks, and Mark Zuckerbergs of the world. It’s not enough to aspire to a nice vacation a couple of times a year anymore. It’s not even enough to fly there first class. Nope. It’s fly private or bust.\n\nThis is being taken on as a real, achievable ambition by average people with average talents and no family wealth to use as a safety net. They firmly believe they can do it. They just have to “outwork” everyone else. Those poor schmucks racing through Amazon warehouses trying not to sob in despair or wet themselves have only themselves to blame. They don’t want “it” badly enough. The dignity of earning a living wage in exchange for hard work done for a man who can more than afford to pay it never even enters the argument.\n\nThe lens through which the average person sees themselves has shifted profoundly. Social media, Instagram in particular, has somehow managed to pin down and calcify the notion that every American is indeed a temporarily embarrassed millionaire.\n\nYes, this social dysmorphia has always been there, lurking in the background of American society; upward mobility has long been sold as the American Dream. This is something else, though, something new. Working and saving to buy a house in the suburbs and two cars is light-years away from flying private to Dubai to stay in the Burj Al Arab, all on your own dime. These fantastical expectations are arising while the ability to attain that suburban lifestyle is slipping further out of reach for most Americans. It’s a secular prosperity gospel — the promise of riches if you plant the seed and invest.\n\nUnsurprisingly, scammers and con men are everywhere. “Like” the wrong inspirational post, and they slither out of the digital woodwork to oil up your mentions and DMs. They’re nearly always offering courses that cost thousands of dollars and promise to teach you the secret to becoming a millionaire.\n\nGet-rich-quick schemes are as American as Mom and apple pie, but I don’t know they’ve ever been as weaponized as they are now. The field of self-help is also frequently used as a Trojan horse for charlatans — and, as with many other industries, the internet has all but eliminated the barriers to entry. Anyone can claim to be a “life coach” or an “influencer” or whatever the next hot-button, self-bestowed title will be. They’re everywhere, firing on all cylinders, using Facebook and Instagram ads to target anyone who sets foot (inadvertently or otherwise) near their online ecosystem. Everything is turned up to 11, including the familiar bootstrap narrative.\n\nThis is the most dangerous element of #RiseAndGrind culture — the notion that anyone who isn’t willing to (at least performatively) half-kill themselves in service to striverism is a loser.\nThe language of #RiseAndGrind is very much about overcoming struggle and hardship. College-educated people from two-parent households in the suburbs talk like they came out of the hardest ’hood. They exhort their hard work and repeat glib phrases like, “Everyone has the same 24 hours,” without applying even cursory analysis.\n\nDoes someone who has a four-hour commute both ways have the same 24 hours as someone who has a half-hour commute? Does someone who has to provide childcare have the same 24 hours as someone who doesn’t? Does someone who is chronically ill and struggles with pain or fatigue have the same 24 hours as someone who isn’t and doesn’t? Does someone who is poor have the same 24 hours as someone who has access to the conveniences of being middle class?\n\nCo-opting the language and posture of people who have been poor intergenerationally is one of the giant red flags that #RiseAndGrind culture is fugazi. There is a performative masochism at work — this pretense that struggle and suffering are a measure of worthiness. The narrative has to stretch beyond talent and hard work. Nearly everyone has a tall tale of scratching and clawing up from nothing.\n\nThere is a slippery conflation of being broke with being poor. Most college students are broke — they have campus jobs that don’t pay well and have to scrounge for money from time to time. How many of them are really poor, though? Poor as in: There’s no one to supplement their income when their check is lighter than expected? Poor as in: They are the ones sending money home from those slim paychecks? Poor as in: They are food insecure when the dining halls close for break, and can’t afford to travel home? Most of the #RiseAndGrinders aren’t from rich families, but they’re not from poor ones, either. They’re pretending to be, and it’s a disgusting minstrel show.\n\nPoverty isn’t ennobling or virtuous. It is stressful, frightening, and has lasting deleterious effects on people’s physical and mental health. It strains relationships, frays family bonds, and puts people in early graves, robbing their loved ones of precious time together.\n\nLifting yourself out of poverty in the U.S. is an uphill battle. Nothing major can go wrong in your life when all your social safety nets are riddled with holes. How many people are lucky enough not to have anyone in their family fall seriously ill, or get hit by a car, or slip and fall and break something that prevents them from working? Even if they manage to avoid being bankrupted by medical bills, how many workers have bosses that wouldn’t replace them under these circumstances? How many families are being shattered by substance abuse? How many families have been irreparably damaged by a racist, draconian criminal justice system? There are too many potential catastrophes to list.\n\nAnd if you are the descendant of the enslaved Africans who built America’s wealth, your family will almost certainly have been locked out of every social program that allowed ordinary Americans to accrue wealth through home and business ownership. Telling these people they just need to work harder isn’t reality-based advice.\n\nSecular prosperity gospel — is there any other way to describe this system of beliefs?\nAre there a handful of people who are truly from dirt-poor backgrounds who are rising and grinding and will someday become fabulously wealthy? Of course, but they will also have to be fabulously lucky. Plenty of other people will work just as hard, but the stars won’t align for them. The stars don’t align for most of us. Pointing to the exceptions to formulate the rule is a recipe for disaster. It creates a society where, not only do the cracks in which you can slip become yawning canyons, but systems and institutions have no problem forcing you to the edge and shoving you in. Some 43 million Americans live in poverty. It’s not possible that they’re all lazy good-for-nothings who don’t want to work.\n\nThis is the most dangerous element of #RiseAndGrind culture — the notion that anyone who isn’t willing to (at least performatively) half-kill themselves in service to striverism is a loser. It embraces a society that throws regular people away.\n\nPerhaps the most bizarre element of #RiseAndGrind culture is the widespread belief that “sometimes, you just have to work for free.” It’s one thing to grit your teeth as you’re exploited at an unpaid internship that may lead to a paid position. That’s not what happens down in the #RiseAndGrind hashtags, though. Anyone who asserts that workers deserve to be paid for their labor is decried as “lazy” and “wanting handouts.” So, what stage of capitalism is this? It’s the one where workers believe their wages are handouts. College-educated people can’t see that their free labor is subsidizing millionaires’ businesses. They believe that on the other side of their suffering is a heaven on Earth where they will be rewarded with great wealth and comfort.\n\nSecular prosperity gospel—is there any other way to describe this system of beliefs?\n\nThe United States is approaching a climax. Income inequality is approaching Gilded Age levels. The ethos of #RiseAndGrind culture is keeping a lot of people oblivious to what’s happening. What happens when the rafters cave in, and their loyalty to hypercapitalists hasn’t been rewarded? When the “broke” strivers faking poverty learn what it’s really like to have no bootstraps?\n\nWhat is going to happen when all these people realize the invisible hand in the sky isn’t going to choose them, because all the wealth is calcified at the top? Where will all that bitterness and disappointed anger go? What violence will erupt? We’re seeing the precursors of what’s to come now with the surge in white supremacist terrorism. It will get worse before it gets better. Fortunately, there is a growing left-wing socialist movement to act as a counterbalance. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.",

He used to be one of the leaders of a quickly growing house church movement in Iran. That was before his church was raided and he was arrested and imprisoned for three years in an Iranian prison (following a first arrest resulting in probation). Recently, we visited him (he was released in 2015) in a safe place outside Iran._\n\nMojtaba’s story is an important reminder that while God may (and often does) use the suffering of persecuted believers to bring others to Him, the depth of isolation and pain they experience is still very real. He also shows us the importance of praying with our brothers and sisters whom God is using in miraculous ways in the darkest of places.\n\nLike all Iranian Christians, Mojtaba knew the high stakes.\n\nIf he organized and led a secret house church—an illegal act in Muslim-majority Iran seen as a “threat against national security”—he, along with anyone participating in the church, could be arrested if they were discovered. And since he was a leader, his arrest would likely mean a conviction followed by a lengthy prison term. If he was arrested and somehow avoided prison, a second arrest would surely mean a long sentence behind bars.\nStill, just as the disciples of 2,000 years ago and today’s persecuted church leaders risked their lives to build the Church around the world, Mojtaba persisted.\n\n“Why didn’t I stop my work for the church after I was first arrested?” Mojtaba says, smiling. “I don’t really know. There was no logical explanation, but we felt that the Lord wanted us to continue. We knew this would mean we could get arrested at any moment.”\n\nMojtaba tells his story with an eye for detail and a passion for Christ. He takes time to think about his answers and often grasps his Bible to look for a verse.\n“I Corinthians 1:29 says that ‘God did all this to keep anyone from bragging to Him,” he says.\n\nIt is a central theme in his prison story: “It’s all about God, not about me.”\n\nHe knew God was with him when he was in prison, Mojtaba explains. But that knowledge didn’t make prison life comfortable—far from it.\n\nFor the majority of his sentence, he was in a ward with murderers, robbers and drug dealers. No one could be trusted. He also struggled to find hope —not knowing when, or if, he would actually be released.\n\n“I felt a deep fear inside of me,” he explains. “And often, even though the Lord was close, I was sad about my situation. My hands were tied, my voice wouldn’t be heard by human beings.”\n\n‘IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU’\nIt was those uncertainties of not knowing if he’d be robbed, killed, or even if he’d be released that were the most challenging. In his darkest hours, desperate for help to go on, he turned to prayer.\n\n“I prayed; that was all I could do,” he says. “At first, they were prayers of repentance. I thought God was punishing me for my mistakes by putting me in prison.” That was the moment, he says, he realized he was “nothing.”\n\n“Then the Lord spoke to me. He said: ‘Stop being selfish Mojtaba, it’s not about you; it’s about Me. Look around you.’”\n\nFor the first time since being jailed, he began to truly look at people, attempting to see them as God does.\n\n“I saw poor people, people who had committed the worst crimes. People that felt so alone.”\n\nMojtaba felt a prompting from the Holy Spirit to share God’s Word with these people he saw every day: “God spoke again to me, saying, ‘It is time that you share Me with them. They need Me.’”\n\nMojtaba offers a hindsight observation: “It’s funny how God works sometimes. It would have been absolutely impossible for us to pass the big gates of prison to bring the gospel to those who needed him so badly inside. But God just placed me and other Christians inside the prison, among them to shine His light.”\n\nAN UNLIKELY SOURCE IN AN IRANIAN PRISON\nThe former church leader began sharing his testimony and the gospel with the other prisoners. Some came to faith; others were just very happy he wanted to pray with them in Jesus’ name. He began to long for and pray for a Bible, even repeatedly asking the guards for one.\n“I didn’t get one,” he said. “None of the Christians did.”\n\nThen God intervened—through one of the most unlikely sources. The prison imam, who came every day to pray with the Muslim inmates, offered to help.\n\n“He was impressed by our commitment to our God,” Mojtaba says. “I think it was God who filled his heart with kindness for us.”\n\nGetting a real Bible into an Iranian prison was impossible, but the imam had an idea. He would bring in printouts of the Bible disguised as an English lesson. One of the friends Motjaba had made in the ward was good at English and translated the scriptures into Farsi. From there, Mojtaba copied the texts and gave them to the prisoners who had requested them—both those who were curious about his faith and those who had already given their heart to Jesus.\n\nSoon it became known among all the prisoners that Bible verses were circulating.\n\n“We even got requests from other wards,” he remembers. “People were asking us for more. And\nthe best thing was that prisoners were giving their lives to the Jesus of the Bible.”\n\n‘GOD PLACED ME AMONG THE PRISONERS’\nReflecting on his time behind bars, Mojtaba offers a revelation that we can all learn from.\n\n“I never prayed for God to release me from prison,” Mojtaba says. “I can serve God anywhere, inside or outside of prison. It doesn’t matter what situation I’m in. I can work in God’s Kingdom wherever He places me.\n“And at that time God placed me among the prisoners.”\n\nHe urges us to pray for his country and for those who are in prison for their faith. Currently, an estimated 21 Christians are imprisoned in Iran for their faith with an estimated 14 awaiting verdicts on their conviction appeals.\n\n*🙏“My prayer for all Iranians is that they hear the good message of Christ,” he says. Please join him to pray thus.*\n\n*🙏Mojtaba continues, “And for the Christians who are under pressure, I hope and pray they can experience the big contrast I felt. They might not be in a good situation, but I pray they feel an inner peace, joy and comfort of serving the Lord..”*\n\n*🙏Pray for the authorities of Iran that a great company of them would become obedient to the faith.*",

After all, the new parent is simply not the same person they were before.\n\nThis personal struggle, combined with a misguided workplace view of what a parent was actually doing on leave (no, they were not just lounging about and cuddling with their baby) add to a cultural disconnect. While the complexities of early days at home with a baby are often overwhelming, most workplaces simply treat any leave as time “off,” like it’s an extended vacation. In reality, a new parent is actively climbing a steep learning curve: mastering a whole new set of skills, tackling challenges that are not only foreign but also highly personal, and making sense of a new emotional and physical normal. The birth parent has to cope with physical healing, which itself can be complicated and tiring, while also caring for and bonding with a newborn.\n\nThis transition is challenging for almost every new parent, but for some it can become postpartum depression (PPD). While PPD is the most commonly used term, a range of mood disorders can occur around (not just after) the birth of a child. According to the Centers for Disease Control, how often PPD symptoms occur, how long they last, and how intense they feel can be different for each person. About 1 in 7 women experience PPD, and men often do as well; people are usually surprised to learn that anywhere from 4%–25% of men report feeling some level of PPD.\n\nMost employees don’t share their struggles with their employer. Karen Kleiman, founder of the Postpartum Stress Center, told me, “One of the most universal ‘go to’ responses…is to overcompensate by creating the illusion of being just fine through an extreme professional push. There is a general notion of being able to conquer.” The parent’s struggle doesn’t always show on the outside. As Kleiman explains, “Sometimes the women who look the best right away, the ones who come off as good and strong, are going to extraordinary lengths to show the world how in control and strong they are — these women are actually doing the worst.”\n\nBut a manager’s support can make a huge difference. Lucy (not her real name) is a first-time mother who works in a New York hospital. When she was pregnant, she began to experience symptoms of perinatal anxiety (PA), something that continued after the birth of her baby (becoming postpartum anxiety, or PPA). “I had not flat-out told them that I was suffering from PA and PPA, but I was open in describing my struggles and my manager was very kind and understanding,” Lucy said. For example, while hospital policy offered only a three-week leave, her manager supported her as she pieced together 16 weeks of leave using paid sick time and a recently implemented New York state policy offering paid leave. And when Lucy returned to work, she worked out an arrangement with her boss where she could ramp back up by telecommuting, something other women in her department had done. Regular conversations with her manager also helped. “She would regularly ask me to tell her if my workload felt like too much,” Lucy told me.\n\nThis preemptive, flexible, and gradual return strategy has been very successful for Lucy and her department, but unfortunately, this kind of arrangement is relatively rare. Lucy stressed that it was only her department, and her very understanding manager, that made it possible — it wasn’t the norm for her institution as a whole.\n\nAnne Smith, the president of Postpartum Support International, is a leading voice and authority in PPD treatment. The organization is actively improving frontline provider training and support to better identify and treat PPD. When we spoke, she stressed that there are three types of support that people with PPD often need: social, therapeutic, and medical. Employers can be a key factor in the first two. Here’s how:\n\nIdentify. As a manager, commit to keeping your eyes wide open. Note over- or under-productivity as well as a changed or flat personality or loss of enthusiasm. This is not the same as adjustment issues, which are to be expected and also acknowledged.\n\nOffer peer and professional support. Create a healthy menu of ways to access support without requiring an employee to ask or identify their need. Have ready tools to connect parents with each other. Have outside vendors and other resources listed and easy to access. Not only offer but require nonnegotiable self-care such as post-natal yoga. Consider a required part-time return plan or a mandated telecommute for a period of time.\n\nProvide good coverage. Care, especially private counseling, can be expensive. Still, providing coverage for private or group work can be extremely helpful. Make this an easy-to-access benefit. Take advantage of centers that offer private and group work (such as the Pump Station and Nurtury in Santa Monica, California), as well as services (Pacify or Let Mommy Sleep) for services as part of off- and on-ramp benefit options. Smith says that “most people want to keep their mental health issues separate from the workplace; thus the biggest barrier is not the employers doing the right thing — it is simply too hard for an employee to explore PPD struggles at work.” Communicate the safety of the space and the benefits available without a requiring an employee to expose or ask too much.\n\nOffer tools. Proudly offer options that can include flex time, telecommuting, gradual return, peer mentoring, and other support offerings at your management disposal. Share these with all team members, potential employees, and so on. Simply make it a part of your culture.\n\nNormalize and educate. Actively work to remove misunderstandings around parental leave and PPD. Create a larger view of PPD through hands-on CSR work in the local community to underscore the truth that PPD can hit anyone, anywhere. Host internal or online events with experts on this issue. If you need ideas on what kinds of experts to bring in, some of the leading voices are Lauren Smith Brody, Anne Smith, and Karen Kleiman, all of whom have books and resources for overcoming the complexities of returning to work after giving birth.\n\nBe knowledgeable and prepared. Make a strong commitment to identifying and supporting instances of PPD in your employees. It is a highly worthwhile investment for holding onto those you value through authentic support![sep18_21_908001652-700x394.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTsHSkuEomx5Ush2dz5PqNP2d5ARFwWwbFGiTjPnDA5qG/sep18_21_908001652-700x394.jpg)",

Cartoon by Bill Watterson, July 15, 1995\n\n“Hey, that was a good artist statement!”\n\nIt’s a sentiment you don’t hear very often, and yet it’s what we found ourselves saying after reading the statements below. Artist statements don’t have to be a source of fear (for the writer) and boredom (for the reader)! See a few examples of strong artist statements below, and below that, a discussion of what makes them good.\n\nArtist statements\n\nAndy Yoder, sculptor: “Many people take great comfort in the bathroom towels being the same color as the soap, toilet paper, and tiles. It means there is a connection between them, and an environment of order. Home is a place not only of comfort, but of control. This sense of order, in whatever form it takes, acts as a shield against the unpredictability and lurking chaos of the outside world.\n\nMy work is an examination of the different forms this shield takes, and the thinking that lies behind it. I use domestic objects as the common denominators of our personal environment. Altering them is a way of questioning the attitudes, fears and unwritten rules which have formed that environment and our behavior within it.”\n\nNancy McIntyre, silk screen artist: “I like it when a place has been around long enough that there is a kind of tension between the way it was originally designed to look and the way it looks now, as well as a tension between the way it looks to whoever is caring for it and the way it looks to me. Trouble is, the kinds of places I find most appealing keep getting closed or torn down.\n\nWhat do I want to say with my art?\n\nCelebrate the human, the marks people make on the world. Treasure the local, the small-scale, the eccentric, the ordinary: whatever is made out of caring. Respect what people have built for themselves. Find the beauty in some battered old porch or cluttered, human-scale storefront, while it still stands.”\n\nArtist statements\n\n(Was this post helpful? For more resources, subscribe to The Art League Blog newsletter here or check out our Artful Resources archive.)\n\nDawn Benedetto, jeweler: “Poppi is my fun and clever alter ego. It’s a line of jewelry that doesn’t take life too seriously. The glass and sterling rings are my invention and are unique in that they stretch to fit most everyone. Poppi adds a splash of color to jeans or an extra spark to ignite a little black dress; heck, it’ll even brighten up a trip to the grocery store.\n\nIf nothing else, it’s a statement. Poppi laughs. Poppi flirts. Poppi screams. Poppi says it all without you saying a thing.”\n\nDiana Chamberlain, ceramicist: “I work in porcelain for its suppleness, delicacy and strength. Porcelain’s willingness to be transformed, both in form and texture, makes it a perfect medium for exploring the iconic meaning of dress and the concept of shelter.”\n\nMargaret Cerutti, painter: “Capturing the light is everything! As a plein air painter, it is always the light that I remember most about any location. It is my inspiration.\n\nIts elusive quality can transform a figure or a landscape in just a matter of seconds. I strive to convey that sense of place by capturing its fleeting magic.”\n\nArtist statements\n\n \n\nAlison Sigethy, glass artist: “Getting outside is good for the soul. Through my artwork, I try to bring the outside in. While I make no attempt to portray actual plants or animals, I do want my creations to look like they could have lived or grown somewhere. Living with beautiful objects that pay tribute to the natural world reminds us to slow down and helps us reconnect with nature.”\n\nCharlene Fuhrman-Schulz, sumi-é artist: “My subject matter is nature, whether it is a traditional landscape or a bird and flower painting. I use traditional materials, ink and brush on rice paper, to capture movement and life — making the brush dance and the ink sing. Everything is captured in the spontaneous dance and movement of the brush as it meets the rice paper. There is no going back and correcting when painting with ink and rice paper.”\n\nPete McCutchen, photographer: “I decontextualize. Then, I reconstruct.\n\nLooking past the obvious, close observation and engagement of the subject is my process. The challenge is to see beyond the distraction of the conspicuous to capture its unique self. Some of my subjects are quite beautiful, others less so. My goal is to inspire those who see my work to look more carefully at the world around them, to discover beauty in unusual places.”\n\n\n\nSo what makes these artist statements work?\n\nWhat these artist statements do\nkeep it short\ngrab the reader’s interest with the first sentence\nintroduce the author’s personality and enthusiasm\ngive a hint about the why of the artwork\nuse the first person (I, me, mine — this is not a strict rule, but it does seem to help the author write a more straightforward, readable statement)\nWhat these artist statements don’t do\nsummarize the resume found elsewhere on the website\ngive a physical description of artwork photographed elsewhere on the website\nsound generic\nuse “art speak”\nSome questions to think about when writing your statement\nWhat keeps you coming back to the studio, day after day?\nWhat’s the best way someone has responded to your artwork (comment in a guest book, at an exhibit, etc.)\nWhat questions are you asked most frequently about your work?\nWhat’s your artist story? (as opposed to your biography and CV)\nWho is your art for?",

      "body": "![sep18_21_78407326-700x394.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmW1pByz1BUNHrL8dTbxuTVZuxbcoWVfMu9LCJEUtLvxCn/sep18_21_78407326-700x394.jpg)\nNestled in the Silicon Sentier district of Paris, the Villa Bonne Nouvelle (“House of Good News”), or VBN, initially appears to be another new coworking space. But what sets it apart is that only half of its 60 occupants are freelancers. The remainder work for Orange (née French Telecom), which launched VBN in 2014 to teach its programmers and engineers how to work with and learn from people outside of the company.\n\nThe experiment succeeded: Teams temporarily stationed there worked better and faster than colleagues elsewhere, and they reported greater satisfaction and engagement (along with bouts of depression upon returning to the office). Even the HR executives managing the space were surprised by their bonhomie. More villas are now in the works.\n\nOrange describes its approach as “corpoworking,” a cousin to coworking. It’s not alone in trying to jump on the trend of shared workspaces, of which there are now around 19,000 worldwide. Dozens of companies, ranging from telcos (Sprint, AT&T), to tech giants (SAP, IBM), to automakers and insurance companies (MINI, State Farm) have launched similar experiments. The real revolution in coworking may have less to do with freelancers or startups than with employees of large companies working beyond the boundaries of their organizations.\n\nA case in point is WeWork, the provider of coworking spaces, which has grown its enterprise customer base in the last year by 370%. As of June 2018, corporate occupiers make up roughly one-quarter of WeWork’s members and revenues. It’s also creating stand-alone locations for individual clients such as IBM, UBS, and Facebook.\n\nIt’s typically assumed these companies are seeking a jolt of hipness. But our research and reporting show this isn’t the case. We’ve separately toured and interviewed principals in more than a dozen corporate coworking spaces in the U.S., South America, and Europe over the last three years. We’ve found that these companies and their employees are searching for the same qualities freelancers and entrepreneurs report from their experiences in shared workspaces — learning skills faster, making more connections, and feeling inspired and in control.\n\nIn addition to coworking spaces for individuals and those that partner with employers, we’ve identified two types of corporate coworking. One is what we call open houses, in which companies offer workspace as a public amenity, typically for brand-building. In Brooklyn, for example, MINI, where one of us works, runs A/D/O, a combination coworking space, café, concept store, and fabrication lab. Its mission isn’t to sell cars, but to attract and learn from local designers.\n\nThe other type we call campsites — internal, invitation-only spaces where teams from one company co-locate with peers from another. Campsites are temporary, affording coworkers stationed there opportunities to learn, ignore org charts, and collaborate across corporate boundaries. Orange’s VBN is one example; another belongs to a large telco in Silicon Valley, where its teams huddle alongside those from customers to prototype products and services. Projects that would have taken months of calls are finished in weeks, demonstrating the importance of co-location in innovation.\n\nSome companies are aggressively testing both. SAP’s HanaHaus in downtown Palo Alto is an open house that charges walk-ins $3 per hour, or roughly the cost of their Blue Bottle coffee. (Notable visitors include Mark Zuckerberg.) A few miles away, at its Silicon Valley campus, is AppHaus, one of five such campsites worldwide, where SAP engineers work with local customers and startups to explore consumer software.\n\nBut what are the goals of these corporate coworking spaces? Who uses them? And what do they look like? Here’s what we’ve learned.\n\nThe purpose of these spaces can vary widely, but they typically fall into one or more of three groups: transformation, innovation, and future-proofing. In the case of transformation, the space is designed to be a Trojan horse, sneaking new ways of working into an otherwise staid organization. This is explicitly the goal at Orange’s VBN, which Ava Virgitti, an employee experience lead for Orange, describes as an “HR lab” to test and learn how teams behave in the presence of leaner and meaner startups.\n\nInnovation is the goal at other campsites, where diverse stakeholders are assembled with specific tasks and equipped with special facilities and methodologies (say, design thinking) to achieve them. Future-proofing is more open-ended; these spaces are designed to generate new contacts or ideas, which seems to be the thinking behind HanaHaus.\n\nFor these reasons, users are typically quite diverse in rank, role, and affiliation, and are present for only a few months before rotating out or back into the company. This is a critical feature of campsites in particular — a revolving door means a constant stream of fresh insights and expertise. Orange’s VBN uses nine-month “seasons” to reset the space; others switch participants as necessary.\n\n\nWhile the focus of many spaces is to create new digital products and services, evidence from broader coworking surveys suggests other roles could benefit from this practice. In Grand Rapids, Michigan, for instance, Grid70 houses design, business innovation, and product development teams from a grocery chain, shoe retailer, and consumer goods manufacturer — no coding required.\n\nMore important is curating the mix of employees, startups, entrepreneurs, freelancers, researchers, and even academics present. While open houses welcome almost everyone as part of their marketing and outreach efforts, campsites carefully vet participants according to expertise, personality, or cultural fit.\n\nThe latter is crucial. While the cultures of these spaces vary according to industry, geography, and so on, they are always different from their parent organizations (and often opposed to them). This is unsurprising given their goal of smuggling the benefits of coworking inside. In interview after interview, community managers stressed the importance of members’ initiative, openness, curiosity, and trust, as well as esprit de corps, or what one called “family spirit.”\n\nThe role of community managers in fostering this culture can’t be overstated. Traditionally nonexistent in corporate America, they typically help select, vet, onboard, and connect new users with existing ones while organizing the space, arbitrating conflicts, and hosting events. User satisfaction surveys consistently rank them as the favorite aspect of corporate coworking.\n\nThe other important aspect in creating these spaces is their physical design. Like the culture, which the design complements and enhances, the layout and amenities of these spaces are a far cry from cubicles. Nothing is stationary — whiteboards, movable walls, and flexible furniture are common. Amenities and kitchens are strategically positioned to “engineer serendipity” and conversations across organizations. And writing on the walls or floors is encouraged, as making a mess is considered a precursor to innovation.\n\nNow, do these spaces work in promoting innovation? This seems to be the case, although, as with coworking in general, their effectiveness is difficult to measure and only quantifiable indirectly, through user satisfaction surveys and interviews.\n\nA few companies we spoke with also offered examples. Orange’s VBN reported a 92% user approval rating of the space, and pointed to the long waitlist for future seasons. At Grid70, one tenant reported a 30%–40% reduction in product development time after a redesign of their workspace.\n\nAccording to researchers at the University of Michigan, the most common reasons people seek coworking spaces are interaction with people (84%), random discoveries and opportunities (82%), and knowledge sharing (77%). Corporate coworkers seek the same.\n\nAs one might imagine, demonstrating the ROI of this is difficult — most don’t even try. Some eschew metrics altogether, gambling they will learn as they go when it comes to measuring what’s important. Many prefer the soft metrics, such as satisfaction and engagement mentioned above, and still others defer measurement into the future, minimizing expenses while awaiting a business case to emerge.\n\nFor this reason (and others), strong executive sponsors are crucial for corporate coworking. HanaHaus was instigated as the personal urging of SAP cofounder Hasso Plattner; Grid70 was conceived by a cluster of local CEOs. Orange’s VBN has the firm backing of senior HR executives, and so on. With the metrics so hazy, the decision as to whether these spaces are worth it is being made on a case-by-case basis.\n\nJust as coworking was seen as a fringe phenomenon less than a decade ago, its corporate variant risks being perceived as a vanity project. But in light of the trends animating creative work today — increasingly flexible arrangements, cross-firm collaboration, and employees’ thirst for agency and authentic connections — these spaces hint at a future far beyond WeWork.\n\nWe’ve identified a few principles to keep in mind if your company is interested in exploring corporate coworking.\n\nBe clear about your goals at the outset. Is it a Trojan horse for corporate culture, a cross-firm skunkworks, or a public branding exercise and serendipity engine? This decision will drive every facet of the project going forward, including participants, design, sponsorship, and ROI.\n\nCommunity managers are the key to success. Hire carefully at the outset, involve them at every step of the design and recruitment process, and give them broad latitude in shaping the culture and programming of the space. Your project will likely fail without a strong community manager, and learning how their role could scale elsewhere in the organization is an incredible opportunity.\n\nDon’t overthink the design. Focus less on foosball or Ping-Pong tables, and more on good overall layout principles. Co-locate teams in adjoining spaces for easy conversations; centralize amenities such as kitchens to increase serendipitous encounters (yes, even the unplanned can be planned for!). Empower users to make the space their own, and cut through red tape during construction — no one wants to spend nine months in just another project team room.",
