Since everyone is talking about their new year resolution, I took some time and look back into the past 2 years... Wait... Did I say 2? That's exactly what I meant. A huge portion of 2020 has been wasted, and the entire 2021 has been trashed due to 2020. Let's NOT repeat the same mistake again this year.
Photo was taken at the light rail train when we decided to take a short trip down town, knowing the traffic is going to be horrible, but naively thinking the train will solve the problem, and got ourselves stuck in a crazily train cabin. We will come back to that some other time. Let's talk about the recycled resolution now.
Flashback to 2019 last day, I've decided I wanted to make a regular blogging lifestyle. I wanted to invest into multiple projects, doing more curation work and translation work so I can grow even further. And what came after that, the very same day of that February of 2020 #steem was forcefully taken over by a bunch of "unknown" witnesses, my country has a backdoor government formed during the void of the prime minister resignstion. And from there on, things turning from bad to worst with the virus coming along. Not exactly sure if the virus is deadly or the media is deadlier, but whatever that can kill the economy, they won.
So, the plan of growing to 20k SP, now HP is still going on. For the past 2 years, the growth has been stagnant and not much changes until 2021 April I decided to purchase some Hive with my USDT, had a pump and got me couple of thousands of those "new" hive and put them into good use. However, the daily posting promise gas been broken don't know how many god damn time over the last 2 years. There's simply not enough topic for me to post during the lockdowns, and life at home with two kids is a huge chaos. I need to struggle to get a very low quality post out, until the reopen, I feel a little bit easier, but then the damn vaccine came and continue to kick me in my balls, so I had to spent time holding my groin rather than start typing.
I know I know, all that are excuses. There are so many people that is determined enough to achieve their goals despite the trying time. I'd say, if there's one thing turned out good about this bloody PLANNEDemic, is my surrounding area ran out of cigarettes supply. Trust me, I try so hard to NOT fail smoking I even hide in the toilet, roll the toilet paper and lite it up. Next thing is, the heavy smoke came choked myself and I puked my brains out. From there onwards, I have successfully (finger crossed until the day I die) stopped smoking!
I used to put Quit Smoking as my new year resolution every new year eve. At some point when I looked back into my past new year resolution, I feel embarrassed 🥴 And then I start to adapt my resolution to my appetite. I beginning to play cheat, put something like I'm gonna reduce smoking volume from 1 day 25 stick, down to 24 by year end, so I better to make sure I achieve it. But then again, the next year I will have to make newer and more powerful version of resolution, to reduce from 30 sticks to 28 😅 And ofcourse, I quickly realized I can't possibly be fooling myself anymore. Instead, delete that column after all 🤣
Back to why this post. Let's make this straight. In 2020, I have a plan, but I blame it on the hard fork, I blame it on the government, I blame it on the PLANNEDemic, and I fucked the plan all by myself without any of those "reasons" really took place. The virus couldn't stop me from blogging daily. Even if it does, I think I should start doing 3speak and uploading video to show people how I die.
In 2021, I told myself I don't need a new year resolution. I don't even bother to recycle my 2020 resolution. I told myself I will just live each day. Without expectation, and there will have no disappointment. But then again, when the 2nd and 3rd lockdown came, once again ammoshaft hits the fan.
I know, I need to set some sort of realistic goal. I need to pick myself up from where I was before this 2 years. I'm already 2 years behind. The recyclotion may not be a magic phrase, but it's there to guide us. Some of the things may NOT be achievable (even if all of them gonna fail), it has to be set in place so we can work towards that direction. So here's some of my recyclotion from 2020. I'm gonna make it more relevent to the current economy or Blockchain and I wanted to make this happen in 2022 no matter what.
I wanted to put NO MORE KFC as one of the new year resolution, but decided I'm gonna break it regardless, so why put it in? It's like telling myself I'm not going to have sex regardless, not even to myself, and it's not going to happen.
I'm gonna have to re-hive this post to my blog, so I can quick refer from time to time, to remind myself I've got these 5 simple and realistic goal need to follow up. Sorry for the long winded wall of text, it simply show you I need to use so darn many words trying to express myself.
