<html> <p>I've been struggling with my Steem mood and haven't been able to figure out why. Yeah, traffic is down a bit, so is all crypto traffic, and the price isn't exciting. Yeah, well that is a good time to post. I know it in my head, but I've been having trouble following through.</p> <p>I realized today, why I've been feeling kind of stuck.</p> <p>If the future is SMTs and Communities and that changes how I interact with Steem then it is hard to figure out what I am doing in the meantime.</p> <p><img src="https://i.imgflip.com/2eim2m.jpg" width="750" height="500"/></p> <p><br></p> <p>In life I've learned if I find myself waiting for something before I do a thing, then I get impatient and the daily tasks feel tedious.</p> <p>I realized that is where my head is at in Crypto. I am just going through the motions of today, while I wait for something else.</p> <h1>I've Been Waiting</h1> <p>Waiting for the Market to move, waiting for SMTs and Communities, just waiting.</p> <p>However, if I am looking into the future I am discounting what interesting things could happen today. I've been feeling like I have writer's block... EVERY DAY. No longer do I have the days where my mind is writing three posts and having to pick one to actually focus on. Instead each day is the struggle of looking at a blank screen and wishing it was full of interesting things. I thought I was getting burnt out.</p> <p>Today I realized it is because I have been waiting too hard. It's okay to perform today, read today, make a great post today and most importantly focus on Today instead of waiting. Yes, things may change, market conditions, the front ends the community may grow or shrink. Spiritual people talk about enjoying the journey not just the outcome. I have been forgetting to do that.</p> <p>Also if I imagine something is wrong with how things are today, I actually create that feeling state. </p> <p>I know it sounds super corny, because I used to know a guy who said this too often:</p> <p>Within Acceptance Lies the Solution. - As corny as it sounds it is often my solution. Accept things as they are today, or accept the price of changing them.</p> <p>So, instead of waiting I am going back to posting on SteemIt as is. Reading the posts on my feed and engaging with those I find the most interesting. </p> <p>Maybe my mood will follow. </p> <p>@whatsup</p> </html>
