Last night, I was grinding testnet points and got a bit carried away. It was supposed to be just practice, but the more I did, the more it felt like I was waiting for a "cash-out" expectation. My mindset shifted directly to that perpetual mentality: not satisfied, wanting to add more to recover. Later, I thought of a dumb way to cut losses: set a "time stop-loss" for myself, like if I keep spinning in the same task for two hours straight, I’ll immediately close the webpage. It’s not real money lost, but it’s emotional loss.

And now everyone is complaining about validators taking too much, MEV ordering being unfair. Seeing that kind of back-and-forth on the chain just makes me more irritable... To be honest, points are also a game of strategy, don’t treat practice as investment. Anyway, I’ll take a day off today to avoid getting overly impulsive again.
