The post for today will likely be short and sweet. I figured that it would be beneficial for me to put down in writing some of the goals that I have for my time here on Hive and milestones I hope to reach this year.
Since I started interacting regularly on Hive, I have amassed approximately 90 HP from a combination of 100% powering up my own payouts and converting curation rewards to liquid Hive and then powering up to HP. This is the result of an admittedly inconsistent posting/streaming schedule and trying to figure out how to get the most out of my voting power when interacting with posts that I like (thank you LeoFinance for the new HiveStats tool that greatly helps on that front!)
If this is truly a trend, and I can accumulate approximately 100 HP per month, then I should be able to hit 1k HP by the end of 2022. However, because I know some of that was due to accounts like 
Once I hit the 1k HP stretch goal, I will begin to take my rewards 50/50 liquid/staked - using the liquid funds to either begin trading for 2nd layer tokens like $BEER and $LEO or simply convert to $HBD and transfer to savings to begin getting that sweet 12% APY. In this way, my ability to interact meaningfully (and whimsically! What better way is there to validate someone's work than to give them a BEER?) will increase while I amass a small nest-egg for myself and my family. I also plan to pour some small investments of my own fiat income into the Hive ecosystem when there is room for such investments moving forward... which brings me to my next goal for this year:
I want to learn more about and get involved with CubFinance moving forward.
I'm still largely ignorant to how all of that works, but being able to take $10 here and there and pour it into CUB for a yield of 60+% sounds amazing. If I can afford to lose a little bit here and there, but stand to gain so much from it, why wouldn't I take advantage of that system for myself? So, I would like to read up on it, glean as much understanding and information I can from the community about the risks and rewards, and begin investing in that opportunity more intentionally moving forward.
In order to do all of this, though, I need a more consistent content schedule. In order to achieve more consistency while still allowing for my admittedly busy life to take precedence, I believe that sticking to at least the following:
- 1 weekly live stream on Vimm (2-3 streams maximum)
- 2 weekly blog posts
- Comment meaningfully on 5 other blog posts daily
- Curate 10 posts daily
In this way I can keep myself accountable to staying consistently active in the community, intentionally creating meaningful connections and earning the rewards I'm given instead of just passively benefiting from them.
Thank you for your time and attention! If you have any feedback on other things I can do to more intentionally strive to meet goals and become a more successful Hiver, please drop it in the comments! I'd love to interact with you!
As always: take care of yourselves and each other, and stay thoughtful.
Your friendly neighborhood dork,
