10k HP Milestone!
Well, it finally happened. I hit my 10k HP milestone!
This is a goal I've been working on for a while now (basically ever since I hit 5k back in April 2021).
2021:
It's been a long, but fun, journey over the last two years to reach this point. Life has kept me on my toes and my growing children, homeownership, and increased work responsibilities as I moved from purely Quality Assurance to Developer have occupied a lot of my time. I also burnt myself out for nearly 6 months and barely posted anything... and then when I did return full-steam, I began focusing on putting as much HBD into savings as I could, aiming for a goal of 1k HBD - a goal I've since smashed.
So, on both fronts, my goals have been going well. I could have hit 10k a lot earlier if I'd kept up the process of just always powering up everything... but in the end I suspect that having a solid foundation of HBD is going to serve me well, so I don't mind that it took me nearly 6 months longer than I'd expected to pull this off.
2023:
So, what's next?
Well, for the immediate future, I'm going to work at using reward.app to get a bit of a savings of liquid HIVE. It's great to have a solid foundation of HP, but when we hit all time highs again... I'd like to use whatever liquid HIVE I have then to double/triple/etc my HBD stores. So, for now, I'll be getting everything in liquid form and relying on my relatively good curation rewards to keep my account growth going.
Being as I post fairly infrequently and generally only about things I am actually passionate about, my author rewards are a lot lower than they could be... but I'm still growing at about 200HP per month, and I'm hoping to keep that trajectory going as we move throughout the rest of this year.
I have an app/extension/fun thing I'd like to build for HIVE that I think would be a lot of fun, but we'll see if I manage to get enough time before the end of the year to see that move from being a fun concept in my head to one that I actually work on and put out there.
I'm hoping to end this year with 12k HP, at least 2k HBD, and at least 1k HIVE, but we'll see how that all ends up going. My goals are a fun add-on to my primary focus which is just creating content I enjoy for HIVE.
Until next time friends, I hope you're all achieving your HIVE (and life) goals too.
Awwwwwwww congratulations dear friend, hitting such milestone is no easy feat.
Goodluck with your new Hive goals I pray you smash it too 😃
Thank you! It's been a long time in the works but is very nice to see.
You're welcome😃
Grats! That's a huge achievement!

@oblivioncubed! Your Content Is Awesome so I just sent 1 $BBH (Bitcoin Backed Hive) to your account on behalf of @treefrognada. (5/5)
Thank you!
That's an amazing achievement, and also, I think holding out until Hive blasts off to shift it to HBD is a great idea and future goal.
I'm hoping - if a few things work out over the next couple of weeks - to give myself a healthy Hive injection, which if all goes well, should really blast my account to the big leage... well, bigger than it is now.
Awesome! It's nice being able to drop slightly larger votes for folks, you'll definitely notice the difference!
That's great progress, man. I'm so glad you hit 10k. I'm right behind you. You're so right about everything you said. It never hurts to keep some liquid Hive around, no matter what. Good luck with your 12k goal!
Thanks buddy! I hope things will continue at this steady progress. I've been trying my best to support some very cool underrewarded authors and content and this definitely helps.
Nicely done ! I'm about halfway to where you are, so it's good to have an example to look up to as inspiration 😀
I'll have to look at reward.app, I've been really disorganised about optimising secondary earnings from HIVE.
Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing the 20K post in a few months time 😁
Thanks man! Reward.app turns HP/hbd payouts into HIVE/HBD at a nominal fee (1%). Very worth it!
I'm hopeful that the next big milestone won't be TOO far away but we will see!
F in A man. Might have to reduce my delegation soon since I need to rebuild.
How dare you take back what's yours! 🤣👍
It's a worthy cause, feel free to do so at any time man.
Congratulations.

in your short time, can achieve your goal this is very interesting even i can't, like you, actually i really want to be like you who is very experienced in any field.... this is very extraordinary maybe I have to study harder so I can achieve targets like you ...
My secret isn't that I know a lot of different stuff, but more that I just stubbornly talk about the things I enjoy and am passionate about. I hope you hit your goals too!
Congratulations @oblivioncubed, 10k is a huge and significant milestone for everyone of us as we get there, and a great memory for those reminiscing back.
Thank you! I hope to see all my friends here reach the same!
Congrats on hitting such a major milestone! Even though I've been on Hive for a bit, I was mainly focused on Splinterlands and only recently set myself a modest goal of getting to 500 HP by being more active creating and curating content. Just hit 400 yesterday so almost there, then I'll try to catch up to ya! :)
Great job on 400! Honestly, if you're active the HP generally adds up pretty quickly. The busy life I lead and sporadic posts and comments for sure made for a longer period for me. I hope you hit 10k in half the time!
