Hive Goals Reflection 2021
Hi fellow Lions,
Today I wanted to proudly share that I achieved most of my Hive goals, or nearly did!
Hive Goals Reflection 2021
Firstly, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who has enjoyed my content and supported me throughout the past year! I couldn't do a lot of this without the people here on Hive. We need to remember that things don't happen in a vacuum, we need others!
One of the things that I've found important of late, particularly with recent events, is that it's vitally important to have goals in life! We can definitely fluctuate and work around some goals but it's important to have a driving force in life for many different things.
I set myself some goals for this year and I've thankfully mostly achieved them! My primary goal for the year, back when it started, was to achieve 17,000 Hive Power as my optimistic goal, realistic goal of 15,000. I started the year out with around 10.6k Hive Power! I never thought I could achieve and surpass this goal!
One of the absolutely critical parts of this success has definitely been Splinterlands! The success of the Splinterlands team and game has led to a massive change in my account that was obviously not envisioned when I started out the year! I was able to power up 3,200 Hive Power just from the game alone! (1,100 and 2,090 respectively) in addition to my normal monthly Power Up's
I think this has led to some great advancements in my ability to earn more through things as awesome as Curation rewards.
Some days I earn more Hive Power through curation than I do posting/commenting! I think that's amazing and as I get more stake in the platform and the platform grows, I think the gap on that is definitely going to widen which I am totally okay with!
Seeing the post author (I think it excludes comment author) rewards just barely being more than my curation reward Hive Power for the past 30 days is remarkable for me. I know that there is definitely a balancing act of activity and curation but I'm thrilled to have some decent passive income on the platform, even if I don't intend on doing anything with it besides keep on stacking.
I absolutely don't want to ignore the other really important piece of it all: Leo! I was able to take advantage of the crazy spike in the price of Hive back in November I think it was, and snapped up 600 Leo for an awesome price. I didn't originally have a goal of 1,000 Leo Power until that occurred but I was doing a pretty good job at stacking the Leo on my Leo focused account, @cmplxty.leo. I am just shy of the goal, which is totally fine with me! That goal was late in the game for sure.
I have been enjoying the extra Leo stake that I have now, I am able to Power Up some more Leo almost every day recently from my increased stake. If not every day, it's every other or every 3 days. A lot better than the once a week or once every 10 days I was originally able to accomplish earlier in the year!
Next Year's Goals
I will be continuing the idea of goals and trying to set them! One of the things that I learned last year was to set a few goals:
Optimistic goal
Realistic goal
Stopgap goal
The optimistic goal I have for myself is 30k Hive Power and 4k Leo Power for the year
The realistic goal I will set is 25k Hive Power and 2.5k Leo Power
The stopgap goal I have is 23k Hive Power and 2k Leo Power.
The purpose, in my opinion, of the stopgap goal is so that I can set something that I feel would be the most reasonable goal to achieve. With me nearing 19k Hive Power and earning roughly 4.5 Hive Power a day in curation rewards, that's roughly 1,650 I could earn in a year so I think I could certainly manage 23k Hive Power. These minimum goals are important so that we don't feel like we completely failed at hitting just one single goal. The more success we can share the better things go long term!
What do you think? Are there goals you hit over the year, and goals you have set for next year? I would love to hear in the comments!

Congratulations on Hive, splinterlands and Leo. You are doing great. Be a hive whale in 2022 👏😂
Hahah thanks man, it would be fun to be a whale! Dishing out 50$ upvotes would be sweet
You’re doing awesome on Leo yourself dude! Keep that shit going!
Yeah, trying. Next year, I need to focus more on Hive.
Ya dude it comes with time, I know you’ll get it done! What’s your goal Hive Power for 2022? Just curious!
There are projects outside of Hive where I am building my stake. It all depends on how active I am here and how the price action of Hive pans out in the near future. I am aiming at around 7.5K HP with the similar price. But I am looking at 10 to 15K if the price drops back to the lower support at 75 cents, which is highly unlikely with the new airdrops coming in Jan 2022.
Hey @cmplxty
I enjoyed this so much, it's a great feeling looking back and being able to say Yes, I did it with satisfaction. Well done on accomplishing them and I wish you all the best for the new set this coming year, I am sure you will smash them.
There were also things in your post that I didn't even know about which I'm going to look into, I'm still such a noob in terms of the various ways that you can earn crypto, but I love learning so 😁
You have inspired me to set some goals for this coming year, it's not something that I did for 2021 - to be honest 2021 was such a mess in so many ways. If there was an applecart, it was got so upset that it disintegrated this year lol.
Have a wonderful end of 2021 and I wish you all the absolute best through this year to come, I'll see you there
Ciao

Thanks Andy!
There are so many ways to earn, don't even feel like a noob! I've just focused in on things that I am familiar with but there are so many that others are doing that I have no idea about lol
The year was a mess indeed but I think having goals is important! My wife taught me that, she's a goal setter and she's accomplished a lot by doing that so I started to and it's been great being able to attain the goals! I went a step further and set the different tier of goals which I think helps. It's good to set a minimum so that you can feel like you accomplished something.
Enjoy the rest of the year! I wish you the best as well and look forward to our interactions in the coming days and months!

Good job dude, you are doing well. You keep reminding me that I need to get into delegating next year. And other things 😄 ...I need a leofinance handbook lol. And I wished I was into gaming. Maybe I trigger José with Splinterlands.
Anyhow, happy new years my friend!
There are so many things that this platform has, and even outside of it. It's mind boggling for sure! I have a hard time keeping up with it all lol
I don't have a handbook by any means but Galen's brother Taraz is a good resource for a lot of the stuff! There are so many that are awesome with all of the Leo stuff like TaskMaster as well. I just lurk on their blogs mostly to learn hahaha
Happy new years! If you do get Jose into Splinterlands let me know, I can hook you up with some stuff!

Yah I try to keep up with stuff too. A read here and there but it feels like a tangled wool ball, all those informations. In the end I feel dumber than before 😂 .
Happy new years and will do ;)!
Very Inspiring analysis dear, Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! I appreciate you stopping by!

May the Hive Power be with you!
You can view your badges on your board and compare yourself to others in the Ranking
Check out the last post from @hivebuzz:
You've done well! Congrats on surpassing the HIVE goal, wow that's amazing isn't it that you can play a game and use that to power up your stake on Hive, and then earn daily curation from that stake again.
Your curation rewards are great, I can't wait until my curation rewards in Hive will start to matter. Maybe at the end of the year? :)
Quite smart to set different steps of goals because you never know what life throws at you.
You will defo hit your goals this year, I'm sure!
Thanks! I’m excited that Splinterlands did as well as it did for me and my portfolio! I’m hoping to be able to continue that success in the coming months, selling some and reinvesting in different aspects of it as well as trying to get more posts and rewards lined up.
The curation rewards are amazing that’s for sure! It has taken a lot of time as well as some decent investment from me personally but it’s great to be able to earn that reward on the chain. I wonder as my HP grows by 1,000 what each thousand does to my curation rewards. Hard to calculate but would be fun to see.
Even getting curation rewards at 1,500 hive power is great! Those .01’s are up to something you wouldn’t get otherwise so keep em going!
