Each day that the contest moves forward I get more impressed with the articles chosen by the entrants, this is a testiment to the great, motivational and diverse content available to read in the #pob community each and every day.
Content that I am so grateful to highlight in the hope of making the #pob community a better and more welcoming place for both new and existing users, I always say that we should make the most of the opportunities that present themselves and the entrants to the #faotd contest are surely doing this while also helping to share some really creative content by exceptional authors that deserve to have there work seen by many.
So with that being said I again thank everyone for participating, commenting, engaging and curating, I and so grateful of the interest and support shown by many in the community, the list is growing to the extent that it has become impossible to mention you all, but you know who you are and need no introduction, it clearly shows in the work that you do.

Entrants for Yesterday shared these amazing Articles
@plint shared a great post by @sofs-su in the #faotd comment entry which went deep into the importance of why we shouldn't try to please others and the benefits of doing your own thing, this is an very good article that explains the detriment to oneselves by trying to please others, I would suggest that if you found yourself trying to please others rather than being authentic to yourself you should drop by and give Stop Pleasing People And Start Living Your Life a good read, there is a wealth of knowledge within this content.
@samsmith1971 shared a wonderful human piece by @melbourneswest that explored the difficulties faced still Today by those living with a disability and a great story about Mr Jo an inspiring person living with a disabliity who overcame his disability to run for public office, although unsuccessfully this article Disability Awareness Support Fund Raiser, Christmas in July. dives deep into the lacking support available from Governments and the amazing work people do to bridge this divide.
@merit.ahama shared an article by @nonsowrites that explored the sometimes time consuming and often thankless job of a curator, the hard work and dedication that goes into reading posts each day for curation and what tactics and methods used from a personal perspective when curating these posts, in this article Through The Eyes Of A Curator you get an inside view of one curators personal reasons for choosing articles to curate.
My Favourite Article of the Day
My Favourite Article of the day was written by @claudio83 in this simple yet straighforward post @claudio83 examines the reasons and benefits of staking your community earned tokens along with the risks and disadvantages of selling them, In this article The community is the real wealth of POB we get to understand how staking your tokens can benefit not only you personally, but also the community through adding value and curation rewards to your upvotes and how the community is the real wealth of #pob, if you are hesitant about staking this great post will give you a better understanding and many good reasons why you should do so. A really good read if you haven't already had the opportunity.
