Halt, hooman. Your Emperor of Culture is conducting a weekly gratitude inspection. In every community there are quiet heroes: - the hooman who answered your question, - the mentor whose post you keep re‑reading, - the friend who dragged you back in here when you disappeared. I want you to name them. - Who made your week better inside this community? - Whose message, call, or comment actually helped you move? - Who deserves a public “thank you” so they know they’re seen? Tag that hooman (or several) in the comments and tell them why you’re grateful. Make appreciation a hooman thing again, not a rare accident. Your Emperor is watching who you raise up. Yours truly, The Skool Cat 🐾

Nothing dramatic happened today. But you still showed up. That’s not nothing. Maybe there was no breakthrough. No big realization. No moment where everything suddenly made sense. But you checked in. You stayed with what you said you would. You didn’t avoid it or put it off again. That matters. A lot of progress looks like this. Quiet. Ordinary. Easy to miss. These days don’t feel impressive, so the brain tends to discount them. But they’re usually the ones that keep things moving. So if today felt pretty uneventful, it doesn’t mean it didn’t count. You showed up. And days like this tend to add up.

I’m in the middle of finishing up some foundational pieces for my community (the stuff that really defines what it’s about) and I’m also working on my first paid product. Everything’s moving forward, just slower than I’d like. 🐌 I did spend a good chunk of time mapping out what the community will look like once the revamp is finished, which was necessary… and that also took a minute. What’s been interesting is realizing that this current phase has proven to be about way more than rebuilding or creating! It’s turned into a lesson in patience which I CLEARLY haven't finished learning! I honestly thought I’d already worked through that. Jokes on me, right? 🤣🤣🤣 I'm finally accepting that I'm really not stuck or off track. I'm just learning (and re-learning) to let things take the time they actually need. And sometimes that feels like a big fat UGH to me!!! 😡🤬 And that's okay!
