With the year coming to a close, I wanted to look back and see what I could set as some possible goals for 2021. I know it's a bit ridiculous to be setting goals this late in the year with only about a month left, but I figured it was better to at least try. I'm not expecting to hit all of these by the start of the new year, I was more or less looking for goals I could set in general.
Problem number one is that I've been trying to figure out what to write. I'm sure a lot of other content creators will feel me when I say it's difficult to figure out what exactly you want to write about. To me, I feel like eventually I will run out of things to talk about and fall back into a loop of rehashing content. That's particularly something I would like to avoid, it's just a matter of how. I'm sure it gets easier the more you write though.
As far as what I like to write about, I'd have to say my main focus of content would be in games, software and operating systems. Sure, there's a lot to talk about, but it sort of falls back to analysis paralysis. I may have a handful of games to review, but I'm worried about not having enough time to try everything out and give my best if I want to do something daily.
Regardless, a big thing I want to focus on moving forward is continuing to grow my holdings. This goes for not only hive, but other Hive Engine tokens as well.
Hive:
The big one. Well, primarily what I want to focus on I'd say. The idea anyway is to use blockchain games so I may build up my Hive Power in addition to blogging. I think if I stay fairly consistent in posting, I should be able to hit this goal without any problems. I'm also thinking about making post rewards 50/50 for HBD just for savings. I'm not so much chasing the 10% apr as much as I'm setting aside some funds here and there if I really need them. I have no real goal set for HBD at the moment, but will probably stop somewhere around $100-$200 in savings.
| Hive Power | HBD |
|---|---|
| 219.727/300 - 73.24% | $2.615/? |
Actifit:
While I was big on using Actifit and doing it daily, I have since fallen out of it. Part of it was due to moving out on my own and I just haven't put any effort to it. That's my bad.
However, the biggest factor for me not wanting to continue with Actifit is because during that 2 year period I seem to have misplaced my funds password. Without that, I'm kind of stuck without access to my Actifit tokens. Maybe I'll start collecting Actifit again on a new account? I'm not all too sure yet.
SPS:
Next up on the list is SPS. I'm a pretty big fan of Splinterlands, although I'm a bit more casual when it comes to the game. I've been playing since beta released in 2019 and I'm loving seeing the game continue to grow and branch outwards. I think we have something really special here and it will just take some time to come to fruition. With that being said, I had a itch to check up on my Splinterlands account a couple weeks ago. To say I was shocked to see the value of my cards skyrocket is an understatement.
As of now, my SPS staked is reaching really close to 1k total. Originally I was selling my vouchers for Hive to fund my Rising Star account a little bit, but now I am turning my vouchers and excess DEC earned from renting into SPS. As of current prices ($0.50), I'm able to stake up roughly 17-20 SPS per day.
I'm planning on sticking with Splinterlands for a long while, so I may as well get any extra SPS I can while I can. 3000 total SPS might be a bit low, but I'm estimated to have roughly 1,800 SPS through the air drop by itself. I don't think it's too out of the question to build up to 3k SPS for a small but sizable bag.
| SPS staked |
|---|
| 957.717/3000 - 31.91% |
Leo:
I've been aware of Leo Finance for some time now and occasionally read here and there. I do enjoy checking in on people's journeys with Hive or Leo as well as developments we continue to see in the world around us. I don't think I'm going to necessarily be a big poster in this part of the ecosystem outside of mainly commenting. For now, I'm just going to make it something small that should be obtainable with some dedication.

| 0.078/50 - 0.156% |
1UP:
1UP is something that popped up on my radar shortly after I had started playing Rising Star. I've taken a pretty big liking to blockchain gaming and have started looking around for more options. Thankfully that's what 1UP is all about. It provides me a place to catch up on the latest news for new games as well as any updates I may have missed in the games I'm already playing. Thankfully my posts about Rising Star can earn some 1UP here and there. I'm setting a small goal of 100 1UP to start.
| 1UP Power |

| 10.19/100 - 10.19% |
And... That's about all I have planned for my goals on using Hive so far. I can't thank everyone enough who has supported my posts and continue to read what I put out. Overall, I'm just happy to be back and writing again.
