Does anyone have, the "lower reward" syndrome? 
After every round i got much lesser reward than usual... I am beginning to panic!
These are usually around 0.0025, but now

It's not hard to work out.
The overall bitcoin network hash rate is increasing rapidly whereas your own mining hash rate remains the same. So you will get less unless you increase your own personal hash rate in line with the overall bitcoin network hash rate.
and, in short, you have to do this FOREVER. thus, don't speak of a desired hashrate goal, but percentage of total network. personally i'm hoping to eventually maintain .1% of the whole.
