Setting Sail For Success; My Hive Goals For 2024.
The importance of writing out our goals can't be quantified and it's a habit I encourage people to cultivate. I love the idea a lot because it helps me stay on track with my goals, I can easily identify my progress and also know when I am lagging. It's easier to know when you need to change your approach to those goals if things are not going as planned.
Without clearly stating our goals, a lot of us aren't always inspired and we just do things as it comes. It's like sitting in a boat and allowing the wave of the sea to push us in its direction even though it wouldn't lead to our destination but it's the other way around when we set our goals, we move against the tide just to reach our destination.
Setting goals serves as a push for me, it puts me in competition with myself and nothing motivates me better than that.
The only issue I have with people regarding goal setting is when they don't achieve all those goals. This negative feeling kicks in for them and on different occasions, I have seen people refer to themselves as failures. Many times, I have failed to achieve a lot of my goals and 2023 wasn't exempted. I was so close but life kicked in and my goals became something I started struggling with. I felt bad which is normal but calling myself a failure is what I wouldn't do because that feeling is capable of preventing you from trying again so it's a huge mistake allowing myself/yourself to feel dejected because of those goals we couldn't accomplish.
My mom always said that when a horse falls you, you have to climb again and it simply means not to give up. Just because things didn't work out the previous year doesn't mean it would go the same way this year and you can't know what the new year has in store for you without setting and working on your goals.
I have so many goals for the year 2024 and there is no pressure about them. I have made up my mind to take them one after the other to prevent the feeling of exhaustion even before the middle of the year. Just like I have goals offline, there are things I want to achieve in the virtual space, especially on Hive.
My Hive goals for 2024 are centred around growth and it doesn't just have to do with just earning even though this growth will definitely boost my reward on the Hive blockchain.
Improving on my videos
I started making food videos in 2022 but had to stop because I knew that wasn't really what I wanted. Fast forward to 2023, I started again after gathering ideas from other food vlogs I saw on different social platforms.
Things improved a lot for me and I had fun making videos in 2023. Going into 2024, I made up my mind to take my food vlog to the next level and at the moment, I want to get equipment that will further help me improve on it. I intend to learn more about editing just like I did last year and all these combined will help me improve on creating better quality videos.
Improving on my writing
There is indeed no end to learning and whoever believes to know it all will end up struggling to grow. I believe I am doing my best but there is a need for improvement so I am taking it seriously to work more on my writing technique this year. I need to improve on it so that I can continue to get my readers to always come back.
Engaging with more communities and authors
In 2023, I explored a few communities and want to do more in 2024. I find it boring sometimes to keep engaging in the same community every day and that has prompted me to explore very well on Hive. This has helped me learn about other people's cultures, acquire knowledge about different subjects in life and understand people's perspectives on different subjects.
Through this engagement, I have made new friends and will definitely make more this year.
Growing my Hive power
I broke through the 3000 HP in 2023 but had to power down at the end of the year for some personal reasons. I wish I had other ways to go about it but I am glad Hive stepped in for me.
With about 500hp set back, I am looking forward to recovering and doubling my Hive power in 2023. 6k Hive power wouldn't be my limit though, I am open to surpassing that goal because I will give everything in my power to make it happen.
Taking my Hive Savings seriously
I started saving towards the end of last year and it was helpful when I needed some emergency funds. If not for the savings, I would have taken more than I did from my Hive power which won't make me happy.
I made up my mind to save every day no matter how small it might be, every little drop will make something huge someday. I started already though and pray for the strength to keep going.
"The year is still very fresh and we still have a lot of time," Does that line sound familiar?
I bet it does, a lot of people feel this and before they know it, half of the year would have passed. Now is the time to start and I pray that the Almighty God will see us through.
Apart from the money we make on Hive Blog, there is that sense of belonging to communities, and the satisfaction of being noticed and heard by others. Yes we have been wrong many times on the platform, but we keep going forward without getting discouraged.
Very good your publication, you show very feasible goals to achieve.
You are right sir, I feel like money is fixed on Hive. It might not come as expected but it will definitely come and there are lots of other things we can concentrate on.
Growing oneself is very important and I believe it will help us grow bigger on the blockchain.
These are great plans, I wish you good luck with it
Thanks Eunice, I believe that you have made great goals too. The Almighty God will see us through.
Amen, yes I did already
Permit me to say that these are deliberate set goals George and I wish you all the grace you need to excel with it...I will be here to motivate you and I will love if you can do so to me as well 😇

No problem mama, we are one big family and I will always cheer you throughout the year.
I appreciate your everyday support, God bless you abundantly.
Achievable and we'll cut out goals you have there. So nice.
The cooking video you mentioned, so you put them out here too or there's another platform for that?
Goodluck with smashing them goals!
Thanks a lot, Cheamaka and Happy New Year to you.
I only share the video link on different platforms but for 2024, I want to take things further and I believe that the Almighty God will help us all.
Choi... It won't be easy at all. But then, what is?
You've got a lot planned for the year and from the look of things, you've got it down pat. I'm confident you'll be able to smash all your goals.
Also, you said you learned a bit about video editing, where did you learn it? Did you just use YouTube, or is there another way you did it?
Agree with you, all the goals you have mentioned are achievable and i believe you will achieve sooner than later. WE need to set the goals to give yourself direction, to take our boat too. NIce example by the wy.
Yay! 🤗
