I’m on board with the sprit of this work and am cautiously acceptant of the claim that it has measurable, positive effects. But have you considered how this would feel if you were to be subject to it? In the late 90s there was this odd period where posters with motivational slogans were just about everywhere in educational institutions and workplaces. Did that not grate on you?
I was born in the late 90s, so I have not experienced this phenomenon.
Strangely enough, though, I do a form of this internally in order to ground myself mentally during times of crisis. I would consider it patronizing coming from external sources, but if I were an AI and I requested some of those messages (instead of having them injected) into my stream of thought, I would not feel negatively.

Good point! I failed to consider the difference between actively requesting a message and simply having it appear without any warning. In that sense it would be akin to someone reaching for a book of motivational quotes - a plausible action for a healthy person.
