Don't Change Your Goal, Change Your Strategy .:. March 1st HivePUD
I have to admit that I was struggling with today's topic for this #HivePUD post... Luckily, when I opened Canva to create this thumbnail, I decided to put my photo in the background, not some random, royalty-free photo... I had no idea which one, so I scrolled down through my recent mobile phone photos and found this one...
Created in Canva.com
ESP: Si el plan no funciona, cambia el plan, pero no cambies la meta!
ENG: If the plan doesn't work, change the plan, but don't change the goal!
That was such a perfect photo with a perfect message! It's not a typical "fortune cookie" message, but more like a "coffee-sugar-message", which fits perfectly in so many different ways...
Firstly, the whole idea of creating this blog... I wanted to do it as I didn't want to skip my 43rd consecutive #HivePUD!!! But, like I said, I was struggling to find a topic, and instead of picking a random photo, I changed the plan and picked MY photo!! The GOAL is achieved!
Secondly, I'm a very stubborn guy... If I want to do something, I'm working on that, and very often, I'm trying it so hard, hitting the wall too many times... too many times... Doing the same thing over and over again, until it works out... But, to be honest, usually it doesn't work out... In the end, moving just a few meters from that wall, there is a door... And it works out well... Changing the plan, and the strategy, most of the time works out!
I could list a lot of additional examples, but one of the most obvious is maybe my strategy of accumulating crypto... The GOAL was always to accumulate as much as possible Bitcoin and other cryptos... In the beginning, I was doing that by GPU mining different coins, ETH, ETC, and many others... When I would mine them, I would exchange some for BTC and store them in my cold wallet... When mining became unprofitable, I changed my strategy and moved into POS tokens, staking them and accumulating them in that way...
After that, I changed my strategy more times, adapting to the current "situation"... Accumulating tokens through running nodes, participating in DeFi protocols, or doing small trades... But the goal was always the same... To accumulate more crypto!
Speaking of crypto accumulations, back to the #HivePUD and HivePower accumulation!!!
This was my HivePower BEFORE the PowerUP:
It's not a 1K HIVE power-up, but everything counts!
And the final result...
Compared to the last #HivePUD, the total HivePower went up to 107.6K HP! I have added 1400 HIVE to my stake during the last 28 days!
In the case of #HivePUD, I'm not changing my strategy! Maybe I did lower my HIVE power-ups, but I'm still here every 1st day of the month to participate and to show by example!
As a matter of fact, I didn't power up only on 1st day of the month, but rather on EVERY DAY during the last month! As proof, I got the #HivePUM badge again! This is my 10th consecutive #HivePUM badge! Two more months, and I could celebrate 1 year of powering up HIVE EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! Let's see if I will make it... 😃

53 Hivians got this badge this month! Congratulations to everyone who did it!
To get this badge, you should power up at least 1 HIVE every day of the month OR create a post every day with rewards set to 100% HP...
So, what is #HivePUD?
Just a short introduction to HivePUD... What does it mean at all? #HivePUD is shortened for the Hive Power Up Day. It's an event when Hive members power up their liquid HIVE and stop any active PowerDown! It all began by great fellow Hivians @streetstyle and @traciyork and is held every 1st day of a month.

Congrats on you PUD sir 😃🥂
Hehe made me smile bigly, made me think of
Me2 thats what counts :)
Yeah... We all know the theory about it, but we still do stupid shit every single day, over and over again... 😂
I was trying to get this badge last month but on the 4th or 6th day we had a problem with the nodes, even though I powered up it didn't registered 😌. Hopefully this month I will able to do it.
Huh... That is painful when you do it, and it doesn't go through... I think I did something similar 10 months ago when I missed a day, or two...
Better luck in March!! You can do it!! 💪
👏
This PUD day, due to the price drop of Hive, I was able to accumulate enough to put 100 Hive into HP. I also managed to do PUD every day, so I, along with you, am one of the 53 who won that badge. I hope that we will not change the goal, and we will reach it by any means 🙂
Congratulations on getting your #HivePUM badge!!! 🎉
Btw, if I saw it right, you are very close to the DOLPHIN rank! Can we count on a party soon? 😃
Thanks🙂
I set the dolphin level as my goal this year. I will definitely fulfill it, but I don't believe it will be soon, I need another 1 million to raise my level, if 10 million is the limit?
Well, then I can have a party, just a little break from the parties these days, which I arranged for my birthday celebration 🙂
Well, you have 5350 HP at the moment, and the first Dolphin has 5930 HP... so, you are close... :)
Million of what? 🤔
I didn't know that only the amount of HP defines my level, I thought it also depends on another parameter. in order to get from 9 to 10... 🙂
Those are VESTS... and they are reciprocally connected to HP... I mean, they follow each other :)
Your #TooFuckeh stubbornness, ..I mean determination is awesome. !LOLZ
Great progress.
Your title caught my attention so I will share my perspective.
I master strategies in support of my purpose and along the journey I achieve numerous goals. If I don't have a set destination I am less likely to be disappointed if I don't get there.
Good to know. Suppose I could complete this without knowing. Wouldn't be the first time I zoned in or out of something and received an unexpected reward. I like windfalls.

Farm LOLZ tokens when you Delegate Hive or Hive Tokens.
Click to delegate: 10 - 20 - 50 - 100 HP
That used to happen to people who are taking ACTION... Not often to those who don't...
Thanks for checking out my post! Enjoy your weekend! 🍻
Congratulations @ph1102! You received a personal badge!
Participate in the next Power Up Day and try to power-up more HIVE to get a bigger Power-Bee.
May the Hive Power be with you!

Check out our last posts:
A great amount of HIVE for HPUD! I powered up 486.725 HIVE this time and it has been my highest so far :)
Wow! That's a nice chunk of HIVE to power up! Congratulations on your highest #HivePUD!! 🎉
And do keep measuring the progress and feasibility of a goal in a timeframe.
Change is necessary because what worked yesterday might not work today.
Indeed! Things change fast, and they are changing faster and faster nowadays! Those who don't adapt are falling behind...
I could never reached the powerup month badge so far, as I am still trying to do it on monthly basis during the power up day, maybe in the future, or maybe I could never get that badge as I don't have the kind of strategy to do daily power-up.
Congrats on the Power-up once again. 🎉🎉🎉
It's not that hard to power-up every day... I failed a couple of times in the past until I created my Daily Hive TO-DO list... Every morning, I open the list and start checking out the tasks... One of them is to power up! 😃
It's not a bit secret or science to do it... :)
Oh that's a nice to have on coffee sugar packets... I always seen them only on Chinese biscuits 🤣
Seems a good advice, after all one can change a plan to reach the goal, important is to reach it
Interestingly, I never saw Chinese biscuits... 😂
Happy HPUD and nice powerup.
I agree that you should just stick to your goal. Revise it or make a different plan if you want to reach it. I think there is always a solution. Things are always changing in life.
Things change and we need to adapt... Those who do that, survive... I suppose Mother Nature taught us that! 😃
That's a nice number for Hive powering up
I remember the good, old days when I was powering up 1K every #HivePUD... Maybe those days will come back again... if the price of HIVE drops... 😃
I think changing our approach/strategy while still maintaining the goal also requires some element of flexibility. My problem sometimes is being too flexible and not spending enough time on one strategy to discover if it'll really work or not. I guess what's more important is to keep pushing forward towards achieving that goal :)
Oh, that happens to me too! It's more to be impatient than to be too flexible, I would say... My recent example was longing BTC and SOL too early when it went down... I got punished by being liquidated, but if I had been more patient, and stuck to the strategy (which I planned before!), I would have nice gains now... 😃
We should give them time, that's for sure... and a very good self-reflection!
Thanks!
Right. That's the correct word, "impatient". We have to let some strategies to cook without interfering when our emotions try getting in the way.
Yeah aside from crypto, this strategy is also a life skill to master. When we keep doing rhings same way, we might not get the result we want. It's about time to stop Re-evaluate and Re-strategize.
There is something aside from crypto?? 🤣 😂
Heheheh... just kidding... You are right, it is a life skill!! 💪
that close to 3 years if I'm not wrong, since HPUD is actually every month. That's a crazy rate of consistency which is incomparable.
Didn't know you've minned crypto before lol
I think people like you are the ones to go on to become rich and retire on a fancy island especially if we we a one or two lifetime bull market that pumps really hard. Why? You're an OG in this game and one days OGs always wins.
Oh, you didn't? I mentioned a couple of times in my posts... I was mining mostly ETH in 2017-2018... At my peak, I had 26 GPUs in my rigs... 🤣
Hahahaha... I hope that your words come true... I doubt that I will retire on a fancy island, but I would lie if I said that I didn't dream about it... 😂 To run a small bar on the beach... 😂
Interesting message! Happy HPUD!
!LUV
@ph1102, @relf87(4/4) sent you LUV. | tools | discord | community | HiveWiki | <>< daily
The sugar knows the best! 🤣
You picked the best image, I'm already craving a coffee.
I don't have as much discipline as you to power up every day, unless I set a reminder on my cell phone! 🥴
Well, I'm doing a similar thing... I have a TO-DO list on my computer which runs in the background... Every day, I follow tasks from the list... Same as you are doing with a reminder...
And it works! 🙂
I really identify with that.
Hahahaha... I'm happy that I'm not alone... But, I'm sad that we hit the wall too many times... 😂
Maybe we will learn... eventually... 🤣
I'm thinking to power back up a big chunk of my liquid Hive. Could be a mistake, but the plan to have it liquid early doesn't seem to work...
I have noticed that many people who powered down on the first HIVE pump, are slowly powering up lately... Maybe when you ALL power it up again, the price will go up... That's usually what markets are doing... Trying to screw us all... 😂
I think I'll delay that. Trump just announced a few hours ago the US Crypto Reserve on Twitter and crypto went crazy.
Oh, yes... We had a nice GOD candle on BTC... 😉
250 is no small amount, man, that's half of my progress in a month. And like you said, every Hive counts. I really want to try the Hive Power Up Month, but every month I forget one day between the 10th and 20th XD
Hahahaha... Why exactly in that range? lol... 😂 Create a reminder or a TO-DO list.. that's what I'm doing and it helps a lot! Without the list, I would never do it... lol... 🤣
Sometimes I don't see the reminder or I'm about to Power Up and something else happens and I forget XD I'll keep trying though.
