            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/600/1*YYwvaOP_JZL_I5wSHvaGoQ.jpeg" /></figure><p>Never regret. That is the best advice that I can give anyone out there who cares to read this. Naturally, we all have our regrets, but I have learned that everything in life is reliant upon perspective. It is all about how you look at it. I have heard a quote that basically states we have no control over what happens to us in some circumstances. However, we have complete control over how we react to it. Likewise, you can change everything just by changing your perspective. For example, I love making money from investing. It is like crack to me. At first, I hated it when I ran into a day where everything was down. At some point I heard a quote that stated “You can call yourself a real investor once you are able to have a great day no matter which way the market is moving. If the prices are up you will be happy because you are making money. If the prices are down, you will be happy because you are getting a great deal and will make some money”.</p><p>That quote changed everything for me because it was 100% correct. Since I started with absolutely no money it meant that I had to take profits, and I hated having to buy back some of my favorites after they have doubled or tripled in price. So, I have since applied that outlook to everything, and it has always been a strategy that paid off. The more important thing here is that it doesn’t just apply to investing. It is amazingly beneficial regardless of what the situation is. I am struggling to generate a great example, and due to that I am going to use that as my example. So, I could be upset that I cannot think of an example. I am not accomplishing anything by surrendering myself over to negative emotions. Or I can look at the bright side. In this case that would be that I am out of stuff to talk about, I can wrap up this post that was never intended to be so massive, and I can move onto doing other more important stuff. See how that works?</p><p>The moral of this story is a simple one. You cannot learn from your mistakes if you do not make any. So, never be afraid to get out there and make mistakes. Life is a series of events and experiences that allow us to grow. Growth is a series of mistakes that we learn from. Learning allows us to become wise, knowledge is power, and wisdom is what Yoda had so why would you not want to be more like Yoda? Absolute poetry folks.</p><p>Back to a serious note, and a real end for this monstrosity that I typed for no apparent reason, I sincerely hope that everyone out there has an amazing weekend. If you have managed to survive this thing, I just hope that you will accept this challenge… If you find yourself constantly marveled at how quick your weekends fly by, because you spend all week at work wishing the weekend was here, I want you to remember this one simple little thing. In the same way that the weekends fly by, our entire life is going to feel like that someday, and I can promise that should you be fortunate enough to find yourself with the ability to reflect on it, you can probably bet that it will feel like it passed in the blink of an eye. Knowing that I hope that you will always remember to make the most of it and appreciate every second. Take care and be safe!</p><p>Until we meet again,</p><p>₿ill ¥en</p><p><a href="https://linktr.ee/blockchange">https://linktr.ee/blockchange</a></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=993d847a0aa3" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My birthday just got a lot cooler! This Tuesday (Jan 11th, 2022), Unstoppable Domains will be announcing the global launch of <a href="https://unstoppabledomains.com/?ref=57b4867c23704ec"><strong>Login with Unstoppable</strong></a>, the first functional <em>single sign-on</em> service built with NFTs on <a href="https://polygon.technology/">Polygon</a>. Login with Unstoppable users will now be able to log in to <strong><em>58+ applications (&amp; growing)</em></strong> with your <a href="https://unstoppabledomains.com/?ref=57b4867c23704ec">Unstoppable NFT Domain</a> starting next week! Here’s how to visualize it:</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/647/1*euNskCKI92v5oiUVNgHL5A.png" /></figure><p>What are the benefits of logging in with your <a href="https://unstoppabledomains.com/?ref=57b4867c23704ec">Unstoppable NFT Domain</a>?</p><p>· Removes the need to create (and remember) new username and passwords for <a href="https://news.klever.io/p/dapps-different-apps">dApps</a> (you can carry your username across different parts of web3 and metaverses)</p><p>· Since it is a new feature that’s available for NFT Domains, <strong>users are now 100% in control of their online identity for the first time! </strong>(unlike traditional login / single sign-on solutions like FB login or Google Login)</p><p>· Users have full control over permissioning what data is shared with apps</p><p>· Users can attach an avatar to their profile/login which will appear on apps that support this feature (can be a regular picture or NFT)</p><p>· Will be supported by 58+ applications at launch with more added down the line.</p><p>· <a href="https://unstoppabledomains.com/r/57b4867c23704ec"><strong>All you need is an NFT Domain (which starts at $5+); and you can save even more by using this link to make your purchase!</strong></a><strong> Here is the link:</strong></p><p><a href="https://unstoppabledomains.com/?ref=57b4867c23704ec">https://unstoppabledomains.com/?ref=57b4867c23704ec</a></p><p>I believe this is the first concrete step in true <em>decentralization</em> of identity ownership away from the web2 giants. Feel free to share this information as well as other amazing benefits included with Unstoppable Domains with anyone you think may be interested. This is the kind of technology we need in the world. Not only for the protection, but also for the privacy it offers. Some of those other amazing benefits I mentioned would be features such as consolidating all of your gibberish cryptocurrency wallets into a single address like this (which is actually mine):</p><p>paidfrom.crypto</p><p>Another benefit is that these domains can also be used to host your website, and they can be resold at any time. I will include a link to one of the main marketplaces (Opensea) below. Just look into current .com domains and the prices they go for. Now think about things like trying to create an email address that hasn’t been taken. That should make it easy to see what a great opportunity this truly is. Just take a look at the image to further see the awesome benefits of Unstoppable Domains, and how they differ from .com domains. That is why I believe this is the future of the web. Keep in mind that all of these features are just what they already offer. As time passes, they continue to make these things even more amazing!</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*WBc9g4xVpCb0Y45oMd0RLQ.jpeg" /></figure><p>If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>My entry for the Sweet + Clinique NFT Contest:</strong></p><p>Sweet is an app that releases NFTs from various creators. It simplifies the process &amp; makes NFTs accessible to everyone. Sweet has partnered with some major companies like Burger King, Dave &amp; Busters, &amp; now they’ve partnered with <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinique</a>. Check out Sweet here:</p><p><a href="https://Blockchange.app/sweet">https://Blockchange.app/sweet</a></p><p>Sweet &amp; <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinique</a> have launched a contest. The winner will win <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinque’s</a> first official NFT. I’m honestly not really big into collecting NFTs but my fiancé loves Sweet. So, I figured I’d try to help her get this one because I am kind of living in my own personal optimism world. So, it’s a topic I can ramble about quite excessively. I’m honestly not really all obsessive with NFTs, but Sweet is one place where I do hold a collection thanks to how easy they make the entire process. On the contrary, my fiancé absolutely loves NFTs and she especially loves Sweet. She is very much a fan of makeup as well. I know she holds <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinique</a> in the highest of regards. So, I figured I’d take the chance in trying to win this NFT for her. I feel like it’s the perfect gift. She loves Sweet &amp; <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinique</a>, she loves NFTs, &amp; I just felt like it would mean the world to her. I tried to be unique with my entry and cover both options they gave participants. I tried to make it a little more presentable with this video. Wish me luck!</p><p>If anyone wants to participate in the contest it is extremely easy. Make sure you are a member of Sweet. Sign up for <a href="https://bit.ly/3Ew1NVi">Clinique’s</a> rewards program. Post an image or a video that explains how you spread hope/optimism/positivity, or something that brings a smile to your face. Post it on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok (You can follow us @paidfromtrades on all three 🥸 ). It must be a public profile. 11/2/2021 is the deadline. Use the hashtags below and you’re good to go!</p><p><em>#MetaOptimist #Clinique #Contest</em></p><p>Anyway, that’s my epic introduction. Here’s the actual submission that I sent in:</p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/2fw7upxtk3Y">https://youtu.be/2fw7upxtk3Y</a></p><p>This is the Odysee version of the same video. Odysee is the same thing as YouTube, but it lets everyone earn from viewing/posting content. Very easy to sign up for &amp; if you will earn 8 LBC (LBRY coins):</p><p><a href="https://odysee.com/@Somethingoutofnothing:e/SweetClinique:2?r=EzrdmtSed51y6BocMi4Nfa6VTyR2ogju">https://odysee.com/@Somethingoutofnothing:e/SweetClinique:2?r=EzrdmtSed51y6BocMi4Nfa6VTyR2ogju</a></p><p>Last but not least, here is the text from my submission:</p><p>If you wanted to know why a guy is entering a Clinique contest, well, it is so I can try to win this NFT for the beautiful, intelligent, &amp; sophisticated woman who stole my heart. She is also the one who brings a smile to my face. Not only does just a simple split second thought of her possess the power to transform even the darkest of days into something I can only describe by comparing it to the cornucopia of vibrant colors violently colliding during the transition from day to night. She is the reason that my entire motive in life currently involves trying to teach people the power of positive emotions such as gratitude, hope &amp; optimism. I do this by sharing my experience with the law of attraction &amp; faith. I use these two methods because I had been praying &amp; unknowingly using the law of attraction basically my entire life. It was when combining the two that I started to see serious blessings/results. I’ve studied positive influences like Oprah, Steve Harvey, Joel Osteen, &amp; Tony Robbins as well as many others. I have taken different ideas from all of these various sources &amp; made my own routine out of them. Just to clarify, I am not selling it or anything. I know it is a “to each his own thing” but my hopes were that by sharing the journey VIA blogs &amp; vlogs that I call “Something Out Of Nothing” I could help someone find the path.</p><p>My future wife Heather &amp; this routine without a doubt have saved my life. I’m a person who has been to rock bottom (child abuse, drug addiction, homeless, etc.) &amp; I was starting to get on the right track but despite experiencing success I was still weighed down by depression, and I was trapped with this unexplainable emptiness. It has almost been a year since I started this journey, &amp; every day I get closer to my goals of owning a home &amp; marrying this amazing woman.</p><p>Hopefully you will help me return just a fraction of the joy that her divine essence delivers to my world. She is absolutely the most deserving individual that will be mentioned within this contest. Not only is she an amazing comeback story herself, but I also have no doubts that she would be a top contender for the #1 fan of both Clinique &amp; Sweet. I cannot think of any better gift for me to give her, truly, and I will even use it as part of my official proposal (I’ll film it for you even) if I were to win. Anyway, thanks everyone involved in putting this on. I love seeing a motif that involves themes of positive vibes.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Revuto is offering some of their cryptocurrency free just for getting on the waitlist. I’ve included more details about Revuto below these links. In regards to the extra links, the selfmadedynasty one is a collection of money making opportunities similar to this. There is over $3000 just waiting to be obtained, and you can grab it all just filling your free time up. With the cryptocurrency page we’ve been building a directory to serve as a “one stop shop” for all things crypto related. So, there are several things such as wallets, that do not offer any kind of rewards. There is still an extremely vast number of easy money opportunities there. We update it daily. Just a heads up though, that website is only a temporary solution while our real website is being developed. Anyway, here you go:</p><p><a href="https://revuto.com/invite/kyle7febc7">https://revuto.com/invite/kyle7febc7</a></p><p><a href="https://selfmadedynasty.onuniverse.com/cryptocurrency">https://selfmadedynasty.onuniverse.com/cryptocurrency</a></p><p>Simple, quick, &amp; easy sign up.

The great thing is this service is not just designed for individuals, and offers complete integration for any businesses that have a subscription service.

Just simply provide your name and email to get on the waitlist. Make sure to use the link below. Not only do you get the 10 REVU for free, but you can also earn all the way up to 600+ REVU by spreading the word once you’ve signed up. After the 600 you become capable of earning even more. Check it out @: <a href="https://revuto.com/invite/kyle7febc7">https://revuto.com/invite/kyle7febc7</a></p><p>As always, take care everyone and have a great weekend!</p><p>-B¥</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/290/1*HZiwm5W0D-m5WCYZM74Big@2x.jpeg" /></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=5034afbc4aad" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The SEC is after another cryptocurrency. This time it is LBRY. They recently merged LBRY with Odysee. I love both platforms. It was nice to see the restrictions lifted on content creators &amp; a platform that prioritized the users and not their own profits. Here is a link to what I am talking about if you aren’t familiar. Easy way to make $3 as well lol. https://odysee.com/$/invite/@Somethingoutofnothing:e</p><p>They’ve posted a petition. They just need 2315 signatures. If you want to keep the SEC out of cryptocurrency, or just want to help out some cool folks please add your signature? ✍️</p><p>http://chng.it/LYKPyYpH</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/400/1*v21SM6wLvVULPJ0_l5Coww@2x.jpeg" /></figure><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=e763d6149a1a" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
