RE: Quit any Expectations on Steem

in #steem7 years ago

Only tangentially related, but it does remind me of a thing that I do; whenever I upload a new set on Mixcloud and it does well, or the opposite, doesn't get as many listens - time and time again I try to analyze what might be the cause of it, is it a bad cover art? is it too long? is the beginning not captivating enought? etc. ad infinitum. Thing is, sometimes it's just pure luck, I still get crazy about it, but I try to catch myself doing it before I go into a downward overthinking spiral. Sometimes "expect nothing" is really the best policy - you tend to be pleasantly surprised more often than not :) All the best to you, cabernet!

Good point @deeptechhouse!

Haha this is me sometimes too. "Expect nothing" one of the best way to be content!
