Congratulations! You made it to Day 7 of Million Sats Madness! Give yourself a pat on the back. Generally I’m adaptable to change, but this doesn’t mean that I’m not suffering withdrawal symptoms to the cessation of Daily Sats. Yes, I know low time-preference and everything, but darn it, I want my dopamine rush NOW! Which is probably a good reason for me to take this opportunity to recenter myself. Focus on the worthy stuff; after all, your mind expands based on what you focus on. So, I’m gonna count my blessings. After all, gratitude is a sure-fire way to boost life satisfaction, right? Let’s go.

1. Thankful towards @siggy47 for lowering the posting fees of his territories so that my heart feels lighter when it comes to zapping others.
2. Thankful towards Stackers who forward me their zaps ⚡️. Every single sat counts in these lean times haha.
3. Thankful that Stackers seem to have stepped up their game and are posting so much interesting stuff this week. Maybe it’s the intense pressure cooker atmosphere, but I really feel that my learning has accelerated in many different directions this week. I have been inspired to write something more than once because I got stimulated by your comment. Thanks!
4. Thankful to MSM for being the impetus for me to build new habits. A week ago, I might have used my breakfast time to catch up on my notifications. But yesterday and today, I told myself resolutely, “No!” and spent my breakfast reading leisurely. Yes, I am a competitor but I stubbornly refuse to submit my entire being to the madness.

This may be TMI but I’m literally shitposting now. Optimal use of time!

1. Thankful that I stopped obsessing so much about my cowboy hat now that my attention has been pivoted. 😂
2. Thankful that this competition is carried out mainly in good-natured fun and ribbing. No full-fledged display of jealousy for Stackers perceived to be “successful”. It’s great that we keep things light!

I probably can think of more things to be grateful for, but my job responsibilities beckon me. Ta-da 🤗 What is on your gratitude list?   join me at https://stacker.news/r/cryotosensei
