Welcome to another "rantish" post! ๐ I know that some of you like these very much, so you will probably enjoy it, and for others, you can always skip this part and move on... I suppose that people like my rants as they can always find something similar in their thoughts, which is always nice to see/read... It is a confirmation that we are not alone and that some other people think the same, despite maybe NOT talking about it...
I was trying to find who did a post on the topic of "luck in crypto", and I had to spend a nice chunk of time remembering... I thought it was @gadrian, but in the end, I found it! @josediccus was writing about it and you can find a post here... It was a starting point for this post, but I turned that well-written, calm post into a rant! ๐

Most of my rants come because I get triggered by some "external comments" from people who usually have no idea where I come from, where I am, and where I'm going... The best quote that comes to my mind in those moments is the one that I heard in a church from a priest when he says something like: "Don't judge others as you never know from where they come..." But, we humans are doing that a lot... Judging others, especially when we are envious, jealous, or just lazy... The easiest way to comfort ourselves and our failures is to deny others' success by saying: "He was lucky!"
Usually, in the days of #HivePUD, you can find a lot of that... I would like to be in your place and have that much to power up, You are so lucky to have that much HivePower, I will do it like you... one day... I remember the last one by a similar saying from my student days... It was called The Biggest Student Lie - I will start to learn... TOMORROW!
It's nice to wish to be in a place where some other person is... I would like to be in a place where Elon Musk is, but... Do I spend the same amount of time researching, learning, and trying to be the most effective all the time... Probably not... The same thing goes in our small community... When someone envies us for our achievement...
I remember the time when you were binge-watching a popular TV show of 40 episodes... I didn't watch it as I was researching stuff where I could invest my fiat to not lose value by huge inflation...
Do you remember the time when you were screaming out of your lungs that crypto is dead and it will not survive? Well, in those moments I was buying that crypto and accumulating as much as I could...
Do you remember the time when you said that HIVE has no community and that everyone left? In those moments, I was creating content, motivating people from my surroundings to keep building and creating network connections... As in those times, people who are here are the MOST VALUABLE people that you can have! And accumulation of wealth is much easier when you have a smaller group of people, working while others are freaking out...
Do you remember the time when you were playing Clash Royale or Candy Crash? In those moments I was creating a project and a token that will work for me and others, in good and in bad times... Thinking about the future and how to have a stable passive income...
Do you remember the time when crypto was on top, and you were buying it as it would go to the moon? In those moments, I was taking profits, converting more risky tokens into blue-chip tokens, or HBD, trying to protect my assets from inflation and the next bear market...
Indeed... It looks like I'm the luckiest person ever... You can be the same!
Back to the #MyHiveGoals numbers... 2 weeks after the last report...

Yesterday was a #HivePUD and that's why there is a huge yellowish bar on that chart... I did a 1K power-up like I was doing last year, and it was a great feeling to be able to do it!
That made a nice push for my HivePower goal, and according to my calculations, I should be doing 2K HP per month to reach my 100K HivePower yearly goal! Is it possible? Have no idea... Will I do my best to reach it? You bet I will! ๐
I think I would reach my SWAP.HIVE:LEN shares goal last month, but I missed creating this report last week... I was very close and have probably reached it, but I don't have proof of it... lol... So, I have to do the same this month and deliver the proof! ๐
I need around 120 shares to add to get to my monthly goal... As I have added around 90 during the last 2 weeks, it is doable...
My Rising Star goal is doing well, but I have slowed down with the card accumulation as I moved focus to different things in the game... I think I have already mentioned that I began with collecting "PRO CARDS" in-game (musicians and instruments) and that requires a significant amount of STARPRO tokens needed for blending these cards... So, most of my income from the game goes into that, instead of buying cheap cards from the market, which is the direct reason for slower card accumulation... Anyway, the Rising Star monthly goal is reached, so I have time to wiggle... ๐
These were my initial numbers and goals for 2024, created on January 7th, 2024...
