Guten tag @Ute42 ,
I’m so sorry to hear about the thread doesn't make you happy!
That is too bad.
Perhaps, it's may help the Airbnb Millennials, Generation Yers, Generation Zers and Generation Alpa.
“Everyone want to be famous no matter how”
Is Airbnb a part of the entertainment industry?
By surprisingly, this is not what the community members to be famous for.
Think about it this way: Suppose that you produced something that could last for a long time (a book or a song or an idea …) and that you had a very large fan base, a lot of people know you and love your work, this would make you famous. The days would pass by, years would pass by, and eventually, like all of us, you’ll die. When that happens, your fans would be sad, you’ll have a large funeral, memorials would be held in your honor, and your work would last for a long time.
Let’s say 60 or 70 years after that, almost all of your original fans would also be dead, and the people who remember you would do that from the internet or from what other fans told them, you’d still be remembered and your work would still hold, but with a lower magnitude.
More years pass by, let’s say your work was so great and it still lasted, I’m sure lesser people would know you by then, almost everyone who loved you died. However, your name still appears occasionally in some searches and so on.
Another 100 years pass, 200 years, 300, 400 years, how about 500?
Where are you now?
Where are your fans?
You still do exist somewhere in history, you are still found in the records, and at least a few people would know you, but would you still be famous? How about 2000 years after that?
Just like everyone else, you’d be long gone, and just like everyone else, you’d be forgotten. That is our end, no one would stay famous forever because everything comes to an end, and fighting only brings you misery and takes you on endless roads of struggle.
However, if you work on having a positive impact on the lives of others, if you aim to produce what you love in order to help others in any possible way, without aiming for popularity in the sense explained above, if you acknowledge that it wouldn’t really make a difference whether you become famous or not, you would find that it’s enough, this would be a sufficient goal, a very beautiful one also.
So, no, I do not aim to be famous, in the end, it’s the same for all of us or you may do.
