500 Hive Power closer to my goals
Even if Splinterlands makes it very difficult for me to stay the course, most of my energy goes towards reaching my Hive goals in the form of Hive Power and HBD. It's definitely not always easy to avoid the temptation to buy plenty of Splinterlands packs. The fact that I keep writing these monthly posts about reaching my goals, gives me a sense that I committed to something and it helps me to stay on my path.
In the context of the HPUD, I managed to power up 500 Hive today. I'm quite happy about that. In total my HP increased by 831 last month which is above average. This is also the case for HBD which increased by 294.
13 posts created this month
I have managed to create 13 posts since the last power up which is nice. That's one more than last month. Still, I would like to be able to increase the number of posts.
I set my goals in December 2021, I wanted to reach 35'000 Hive Power by the end of 2022 and I also wanted to have 10'000 HBD in my savings account.
| Token | 25.12.21 | Today | Target | % reached |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hive Power | 18'824 HP | 27'747 HP | 35'000 HP | 55.15 % |
| HBD | 5'774 HBD | 8'313 HBD | 10'000 HBD | 60.08 % |
Falling further behind
Since I set these goals, 280 days have passed, which represents 76% of the total duration between the setting of the goals and the final date. I should therefore also have reached 76% of my targets today.
It will be very difficult to reach my goals... but who knows
Unfortunately, I realize now that my goals were too ambitious and I will probably not reach them. The gap with my benchmark is getting bigger and bigger. Last month, I was 18% below it for HP and 15% for HBD. This month the gap is now 21% for HP and 16% for HBD. The gap isn't getting smaller and it would be an illusion that I can close it within the last 3 months of the year. Well we will see, who knows what will happen until then...

I know how it is to fall behind with your goals. I decided to push more outside funds into HIVE (Power), so that goal should be on track now. But for a long time, I saw it drift away every week.
It's pretty difficult to compensate a gap and a bit frustrating when the gap gets bigger and bigger but then maybe I was too ambitious with my goals in the first place :-)
Nice job, @achim03! I didn't have much to power up this month... but every little bit counts! Keep it up, brother. 💪

Yes, it's kinda falling behind. I think you can at least get 80%+ for both of your hive goals if u keep steady with what you're doing rn. Time is money, maybe you can try to focus on your goal and eliminate something that hinders you from your goal.
Stay strong and do your best 💪
Thanks for your encouraging words! Appreciate it :-)
You've got an inspiring goal, well done on the power up and best of luck reaching your goals as you fight off the temptation of buying Splinterlands assets.

At the moment that's almost the hardest part lol
There is still 3 months to go for the final push!

Who knows what can happen in 3 months :-)
It's hard to do both, HIVE and HBD, at the same time... Maybe you are falling behind, but who knows what will tomorrow bring... If HIVE goes a bit down, you could swap some HBD into it, or vice versa, if it goes up, exchange to HBD... ;)
The challenge of doing both at the time is also an opportunity because as you said you can use the market movements to fill either one or the other pocket :-)
Congratulations @achim03! You received a personal badge!
Participate in the next Power Up Day and try to power-up more HIVE to get a bigger Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

It's difficult to get to your goals but it isn't much you can do unless you want to invest funds into Hive. I also think it's quite tough to keep up with your goals but things like HP and HBD are reliant on other people if your focusing on curation and author rewards. So a goal like number of posts or comments is easier if you want more control.

You are right about that. It's not possible to force the upvotes of others and to influence the value of the tokens. Setting goals that you are 100% master of, seems a more reasonable approach.
3 months left for 2022! All the best! Hehe!
Thanks I will try to make them count ;-)
