Power Up December 2024 - I lied, but just a little... like 700HP

in #hive-1400846 days ago

pud.jpg
I am so done. Twelve months of pudding did not come easy.

The plan, 12 months ago today I told you about my plan. In my first serious year on HIVE I got up to 1000 HP, during the bear market I grinded like a MOFO to do a 2.5X on that number.

I ended up with 3000 HP on the first of Jan 2024 and planned to double that.

Hence 6000 HP by today.

The Error

The thing is, I did not count on the ALT Season this march. Hive price went up and the number of incoming HIVE went down.

I felt like I F´ed up my plan before I really got started. The 250HP increase I needed monthly was nowhere to be found.

I dropped to 150 more or less and needed to adjust. I gave up on reaching 6K HP in a year.

Let It Go

Yes I did the Frozen Thingy

But over the summer HIVE dumped to it´s cycle Lows and I kept grinding and adding HP.

Why do I want all that HP, just so that my vote matters.
There is quite some content on here that does not get the votes it deserves and there is some that get a bit too much but that is just my opinion.

What I want is for someone to notice my upvote, I am by far a whale but I like to be noticed.

The Adjusted Plan

Letting go, having faith in the plan is my mantra for the next year and maybe it´s because of what happened this year.

Because when I let go, and HIVE started dumping my goal became real again.

So real that when autumn came and the price of HIVE went up 6000HP did not sound that far away anymore.

There was just one problem, I also felt that I needed to prepare a bit for what I expect is coming next.

Coming Next

For those who follow my: Never Sell Your Bitcoin series, this is no news.

For those who don´t I already started selling my crypto. Slowly but steadily I am getting out of my ALTS.

I want to be gone from the majority of my ALTS by the 5th of May.

Hence, when I was seeing the steady increase in HP I did not power up everything like I did during all those months before.

I just started stacking some, I know it doesn´t owe me any rewards but I does allow me to sell on the way up. Or sell some peaks and buy back at the dips.

Crypto is like a Box of chocolate you never know when it´s gonna pump.
Better be prepared, a little at least.

Come to the point

Yeah I know, why do I keep dragging it out?
Maybe because I lied, or at least only showed you what I wanted you to see.

Just to make this last episode a bit more exciting. After my whining for months about not making my Goal I thought it would be a nice surprise if I could tell you I made it.

That I gathered 600HP, doubled my holdings in a year by grinding like a baby.

Therefore don´t take it personal, I wasn´t sure till we dropped to like 17 cents which really made those HIVEs roll in.

Now for next year I have a plan as well.

I am taking a break from crypto.
Not that I disappear completely but I will be focussed on selling, taking profit, and waiting for the Bears to be back in control.

That does not mean I will sell my HIVE. I plan to keep 6K HP at the minimum. I worked my ass off for those, hence they are my badge of honor.

What I plan is to write less, and focus on writing those things I enjoy but maybe not weekly. It will depend on my mood I guess.

For one, I will no longer do musical riddles on Three Tunes Tuesday for a while.

I will do a weekly story on my selling ALTS adventure, and all crypto-related ideas and challenges I face.

On Sunday I plan to frequently pop up with something slightly spiritual and enlightening.

#NinetiesFriday will be tricky, I love those posts but I am running a little low on new topics and angles. So I probably will not be posting weekly.

My Midnight Gems Sessions, I missed posting it this week due to the holidays but I do plan to dive down that musical rabbit hole weekly.

I think I need to learn how to write less still because that sounds like a pretty busy week to me.

It´s All About The PUD

OOPS time flies when I am having virtual fun stalling.

Recap: In October I had a hard time I went from 4666HP to:

First of November I broke that 5K!

Aiming at 5.5K. I got up to 5.3K in December

So how close did I get to that 5.5K?
How much did I hide in the tank?

In essence:

Okay here we go!

I reached 5500HP!

Of course the real question is after this months Power Up:

image.png

How much is left in that Tank????
Does it put me at 6000HP what would mean:

Well Done

Let´s see the Tank!

Da Tank

image.png

Hell Yeah that puts me 120 HP over my initial goal....but there is more.

As I told you I slowly started selling.....

image.png

That is another 180 HIVE, putting me 300 Hive over my planned goal..... well done me.

Like I said I will take it a bit slower this year....but I probably keep pudding and maybe...just maybe I set myself another goal.

So...........

Stay Tuned

As I am posting in the Free Compliments Community....All compliments go out to those who achieved their goals this year and plan to do so in 2025!


Anyway Happy POWER UP DAY Y´ALL

Congrats, you are crushing it like a little baby this season so far!!

Well you believed it was possible a year ago, I had my doubts...but yes kinda impressed it worked out well thanks bud have a great chill day with the Fam! !PIMP

it's funny and exemplary how longterm hivers are rejoicing when price goes up, and also when it goes down.
both have total advantages in building value. not many blockchains have that sort of positive dichotomy.

all the best for your continued success in gregorian 2025

in gregorian 2025

I am so gonna use that phrasing!

And yes indeed, although I was very happy with the dip this summer I now plan to sell a bit and I did not mind doing a little selling at 44 cents.

Have an awesome Gregorian 2025

;)

i say it because the calendar and "new year" we celebrate... is an invention of pope silvester.

still, a great opportunity to reflect and set our mind for the time ahead.

it's gonna be a crazy year ahahah
blessings dude!

The thing is I know, but do not think about till you say it like that it just sounds so much wiser LOL

;)

That seems reasonable to get out of the majority of your alts. I am hoping to do some consolidation this alt season as well.

I wanna get out, relax a year and wait for the next bear !LOLZ

I need to take some bigger gains this year because I am not sure I am going to be as enthusiastic about crypto in general come the next bull. Four years is a long ways off.

Looking at the current development and adoption I think we will have one more crazy cycle but one does not want to risk everything on that so I fully agree

Did you hear about the alarm clock convention?
Total snooze fest.
