Raising the Bar Keeps Me Motivated, But... .:. #MyHiveGoals 2022

in LeoFinance2 years ago

Last week, I was writing about the quantity and quality when we look at content creation... Which one is better and more profitable in a short term and the long term... I suppose that there are many different approaches to that, but in general, when I try to build something, I pay attention more to quality as it should bring longevity...

The issue appears when we are trying to bring more and more things to the table... We, as humans, tend to improve things and try to reach "perfection", which probably is always "just around the next corner"... The same happens to me... I want to bring more value to my posts and try to deliver something NEW every single time... That's not a bad thing, but the problem is that many times I drop some good ideas just because I THINK that they aren't good enough... But even those ideas could help someone...

Raising the bar can be a good thing as it pushes us to improve ourselves and our work, which could be only beneficial to our surroundings... In our example, it could help the community... Until it helps 1 person, it's still worth doing it... But, there is another human characteristic involved... I would say GREED, but in our case, greed to reach perfection, which could have a side-effect and slow down our progress...

So, in a conclusion, everything comes back to BALANCE... It's impossible to write a PERFECT post, but it doesn't have to be perfect... It should be valuable to readers and that should be the guidance for creation...

Let's get back to the #MyHiveGoals and numbers for the last week... The chart from the HiveStats website doesn't show today's numbers, but still, it's accurate and shows the direction... 😃 And it's up! 😀

Lately, I'm trying to stick to my 500 HIVE power-ups per week in a hope that I will catch and hit my yearly goal of over 55K Hive Power! I don't have an exact number, but rather the ORCA rank which is around that number (maybe a couple of hundred more... oops) at the moment... Also, I have started to follow my rank at HiveBuzz, sorted by owned Hive Power... Currently, I'm in the 319th place of all Hivers!

Regarding my LEO Power, this week I didn't sell any tokens and staked all my earnings... It was 116 LEO tokens in 7 days, which isn't a bad result at all... I'm very close to my monthly goal and when I hit it, I will probably exchange the rest of the tokens for HIVE... But, we will see what happens until then...

I mentioned in the last report that we have another whale with a large amount of liquid WORKERBEE tokens on the market... But, it looks like this one has patience as we didn't see some large dumps in price... Currently, it seems like a chess game where everyone is waiting for the first move of the "other side"... I had some liquid WORKERBEE tokens and I have decided to stake them... I'm only 250 WORKERBEE tokens far from hitting my yearly goal!

This week, I didn't speculate a lot about the BEE tokens... All my curation earnings are staked, and I have exchanged some of my mining rewards during the week... I have no hurry of hitting this goal, probably because I have already hit my "first" goal, and this one is my "revised" goal...

GAMING GOALS

Removing the Millionaire card from the RISING STAR game had multiple effects on the STARBITS stability and price in general... Yes, I do accumulate NFTs (cards) in my gaming goals, but I still have to buy those packs with STARBITS, and also need STARPRO tokens to get some cards, too! So, it's important to have a stable game coin... As I said, removing the Millionaire card from printing is definitely a good move for long-term stability, but on the other side, it was a nice incentive for people to collect tokens (and buy them from the market)... Without that incentive, a lot of people decided just to dump the tokens on the market and the price went down...

Anyways, there is another mechanism between two game tokens (STARBITS and STARPRO) that should stabilize the price... I suppose that we have to find the "sweet spot", or better said, the actual value of the token...

Another 12.5K unstake happened and my SPS tokens stake went down a bit more... I will not have more of these huge unstakes, but I will have more of 5K unstakes in the next 4 weeks...

I have added another "note" in my spreadsheet as I'm not counting ONLY my staked SPS tokens for this goal, but also the number of my SPS tokens inside the SWAP.HIVE:SPS liquidity pool... As the price of the SPS tokens went down a bit, the number of tokens that I hold inside the pool has grown a bit... In general, I don't expect that the number of my SPS stash will go down a lot in the next 3-4 weeks... After that, if the price stays where it is, this number should go up...

It's time to update the numbers and put them into the spreadsheet until the next week! So, freshly updated numbers for #MyHIVEGoals, on October 16th, 2022 are:

Thanks!

With your Workerbee stake , you are also a whale.

I suppose that's right and I hope that I will not convert into a "bad whale"... lol...

When is something good? When is it good enough and when is it perfect? No easy questions and in the end we can only answer them for ourselves.
There is a conflict of goals between the own claim to create as perfect contributions as possible and not to neglect ideas that are perhaps not yet so mature.

For me ideas are like little plants, we have to nurture them carefully until they are ready to come out. This would be a good topic for my mindful weekend. Thanks for that 😄

When I get a comment like this, I know that my post had a "certain value" and I'm glad that it is!! It's like a confirmation! Thanks for doing that!

Let me add a bit more on this idea for your future post... 😃 Question over this sentence is... How about releasing your idea BEFORE it's 100% prepared? When we get feedback, we can improve our original idea and it can be even better than we thought... :) Team work! :)

Have a great week!

This is a very nice idea, I will try to implement it. It probably requires a somewhat different approach, that will certainly be exciting!

That's interesting. Quite a lot of bigger Hive accounts out there. I thought there would be fewer.

Tbh, I thought that there are more of bigger accounts than just 300... I wasn't here on HIVE (STEEM) from the beginning, but rather "late" for the party... But it looks like many people powered down and left...

!PIZZA

So great to follow your growth and hear your thought 😊 and your goals to come.
Congrats on it and achieving them bit by bit.

Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement! It means a lot!!!

I am kind of glad that I had the millionaire card early and it hurts for any new players coming in. However, it is kind of bad overall for the inflation of starbits as it generates 365% APR so long as you do the mission each day. I am a bit conflicted about the changes though.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Any kind of "lifetime subscription" is bad for a business, and Starbits Millionaire card was that kind of a thing... In the end, Rising Star is a game and there are many ways how they can create more stable tokenomics... As I can see, they are working hard on that, trying to create a sustainable model... As a matter of fact, that was one of the main topics that I had with Jux at Hive Fest... The idea of creating a game with a sustainable economy...

Its really tricky to know which is the best way to invest in the Splinterlands assets. Thanks for sharing your plan/goal. It will be interesting to follow how it will work out.

You are right about that... As I don't expect that the SPS price will go up a lot, I'm following the higher APR logic at the moment... When they start the airdrop for the other game, I will probably remove liquidity and stake tokens again...
Btw. those are my speculations about the price... I don't have a crystal ball nor this is financial advice... 😀

!LUV

Some think the price will go up, but I do not see that necessarily, more likely down if the payments to landholders will start soon.

What is important is to see new players enter and some growth, but that may not be so much in the current bear market.

You said it all... I know that the game has the potential to get a lot of new players, which COULD push the SPS price up, but I'm not that sure that it will happen... One of the reasons is that by creating another (similar) game to Splinterlands, they are creating competition for themselves... In some weird way, you are "stealing" clients...
Also, there are many other teams developing games with NFTs, but that's a completely another level of discussion...

Some think the price will go up

Yesterday I saw a post when the guy said that he bought SPS tokens for $1, and he said how nobody could predict that the price will go down... Well, in that particular case, everything was pointing out that it WILL go down... (a lot of printing tokens, high APR, etc.)

The same thing as you said here:

but I do not see that necessarily, more likely down if the payments to landholders will start soon.

Cheers!

Until it helps 1 person, it's still worth doing it...

Yes, it is! Thinking more broadly, it can help a newbie stay an extra 2 minutes in Hive, and then forever, as it did for me. I don't even remember whose post it was, but it sure wasn't a strong post... 😅 !LOLZ

Which side of the chicken has more feathers?
