I honestly also feel gratitude for you writting this blog. I watched some youtube videos on how to be happy, and gratitude was a big part of it. But then I watched youtube videos on how to do gratitude, and it left me confused. But now I remembered that you have a blog about it, and read it, and feel much less confused :)

One thing of a little value that I can say is that expressing gratitude to others (that you mentioned) is key, because according to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph1BuMRFJ88 receiving gratitude from others is the most powerful type. Although personally, when someone expresses gratitude to me, I just shrug it off and don't think about it at all and feel nothing, so maybe there is also something about learning to accept gratitude from others :)

In all honesty, not just trying to be ironic: I have gratitude for all of the people who take time to get into the details of things, and share their learning publicly.

It takes a lot of work at each step, and you will never directly see the reward. But, for what it’s worth, deep dives like this have always been really helpful to me and I look forward to trying to apply your new insight myself
