After my two weeks of holidays, the first of August is here already. Being away for half of the month really didn't help to grow my hive account. But then, we also need to enjoy life. I hardly logged into Hive while I was on holidays...
Whenever the month starts, I try to look at my progression and where I stand in respect to the goals that I set for myself at the beginning of the year. For 2025, I set two goals. One is to reach 80'000 HP and the other to have 16'000 HBD in my savings account.
My benchmark
I split the year in days and try to figure out what percentage of the year has passed since I set the goals. This percentage is my benchmark that shows me where I stand. So far, 58% of the year have passed and to be on target, I should have reached 58% of my goal by today.
| Token | Start level | Today | Goal | Increase % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| HP | 72'024 | 77'688 | 80'000 | 71% |
| HBD | 15'005 | 15'228 | 16'000 | 22% |
The picture hasn't changed since the beginning of the year. While I'm well ahead regarding my HP goals, I'm terribly behind my HBD goals.
Post creation was abysmal in July
My target is to create between 8 and 10 posts per month but in July, I only created 3 posts which is probably a new negative record. If I want to have a chance to reach my HBD goals, I will need to be a bit more productive.
What I'm working on
After surfing through the incredible options that are offered by AI, I calmed my efforts a bit. AI is great. When I discovered something new, I went into it as in a kind of rabit hole and on the way I forgot why I researched it in the first place. I lost of time for things that didn't really bring me forward. I will need to have a more efficient way to discover AI things in the future...
