A month ago I made a post setting some goals.

Time to recap.

Goal 1 Followers ✔️✔️✔️

At the time of setting this target I had 15 followers.
My 1 month target was to double them to 30.
Checking my profile right now - I have 51 Followers.

So big success here! Most of the followers came after my post about formatting Hive 101. Especially after @ryzeonline featured my post in his emblematic successful Hive onboarding article.

Seeing the success in these two posts, I think there is a big need in well made posts helping users in their Hive journey.

Goal 2 Keep posting quality posts at least once a day. 💚

I tried really hard to have at least one quality post a day and I didn't succeed. It is not easy.
At least I have 49 posts and I joined hive 42 day ago, so I feel it as a win.

For the next month I will focus on creating even better quality posts as much as I can.

Goal 3 Have deep understanding on all differences between Hive, Hive Power, Swap.Hive, Hive engine tokens, and how curation, witnesses and so on work. ✔️

I think this is a win. I succeeded in understanding all the different Hive currencies, how to transfer and trade them, how curation works and even voted for some witnesses that I like.

I also found that not everything in the Hive community is Honey and butter. Some whales and communities argue about how curation is performed. The big question: Should we curate only our friends/community members and delegators or we should curate quality. I totally take @acidyo 's side that Quality original content should be the primary goal and we should give our votes to the people creating it, no matter their affiliation.

Goal 4 Five NFT's on @nftshowroom and a single sell ✔️❌

Ok. I minted 5 pieces that I really like.

You see six in the picture, because a nice art creator @eve66 made a present for me and gave me the red forest devil.

About selling... It's a fail here... I don't know where I fail. Is it the art, or the prices, or the marketing, or just I am too inpatient.
If somebody can give me advice, I will gladly accept it. @juliakponsford , dear alien admired girl, I am seeing you are really successful and I am so happy about it. Do you have any idea what I am missing?

Goal 5 - 515 Hive power ✔️✔️✔️

This is a big win again.
I have 556 HP
I have delegated 50 HP
I have been delegated with 700.350 HP
I have 28 HBD and 16 Hive and of course my NFT collection.

The most interesting part is that by just Hiving and learning how to Hive for my first month I earned more than the minimal monthly salary in Bulgaria.

On trading goals

I didn't win much, but I also didn't lose. It was a scary market for options, I was mostly watching what was happening. Some wins on Big Caps, some losses on small caps.
My task was to make 500$ on crypto. I made 200$, but if we take my Hive account - it is over 500$.
Still I was just exploring and learning. My 200$ I made on Stellar Lumens and DOGE, using just 270$ cash for investment.
Profit taken ;)

Current trades

Looking for entry on $SPCE
My biggest holding in $INTC (below 50$ average)
Having few losing $FUBO and $NIO options
Having 1000 DOGE ! :D :D :D - They should be renamed "Elons" btw...
