I think that a HBI reward is the most awesome prize. When I first started Steemit, I entered several SBI contests. I didn't realize just how powerful those rewards were until returning after an extended break form Hive to realize that I had built up a decent amount of votes from HBI after the fork and continue to get votes from contests I won years ago!

I also hope to host a contest or two once I get reacclimated to the platform and all of the changes.

I am a wholehearted believer in the power of having an attitude of gratitude and I try to always be aware of how truly blessed I am. I think it helps with everything from self esteem to finding true contentment regardless of ebbs and flows of life. I'd love to see a contest that incorporated this a bit with a few other elements. Maybe something like a weekly contest that requires a post about one thing you are grateful for and as additional elements what you feel you are really good or successful at and finally one thing you feel that makes you truly unique. I attended a resiliency training that required this from every one each morning of the class and it is lifechanging how maintaining an attitude of gratitude can be.

Of course, if this is an idea that you don't act on, I'm probably going to steal it back! lolololol
