Good first day of the year Hive & Leo Finance

it's @trippymane with my 1st #HivePUD for the New Year!

postThere is always a great deal of engagement and prizes for who participates in the #HivePUD, if you want you can read more about it in this by @traciyork, thanks for the great work you do on Hive and the #HivePUD initiative! Big Up!

This is my 6th Power up since I joined Hive, here you can see from my HiveBuzz stats when and how much I did power up in the past months:

You can see my first power up in June was tiny, I think it was just 10HP, but for July and August I stepped up my game and powered up 100+ HP, on September I did 50+ and on October I was Hive broke (lol) and powered up again only 10HP!

(We can see that from the size of the Bee, mini Bee = 10HP, medium Bee = 50HP, big Bee = 100HP, and obviously there are bigger bees for higher levels, I think the next is 1000HP for the huge Bee!

For the last two months of the year I had some shit going on and I didn't manage to stay on Hive how much I wanted and I didn't even power up once during these 2 months, not being much active I was not earning any HBD or Hive to power up.

And also depression and shit when hits you up you become an idiot and I had days that I wasn't feeling motivation to even log in, imagine post or power up, lol
When we feel shit even the simplest thing becomes a struggle, I know it's not an excuse but I'm now doing much better even though I'm still struggling, in December I did quite ok and managed to drop some good posts and earn some HP, I set up many of my best paying posts to 100% HP and I had some very good growth in December (this to my tiny levels obviously!):

From 620 to 720 HP in a month is a very good achievement for me, my biggest problem is paralysis by analysis and rumination, I do spend a lot of time thinking about doing something but not actually doing it, and at times I get lost in my thoughts and do fuck all all day only to get even more frustrated in the evening when I realise that I have accomplished nothing during the day!
And this only got boosted while I had Covid, I started December in a very good way here on Hive and had so many ideas of posts, I wanted to catch up with some old ideas and posts, also with some stuff I wanted to do for friends and then I simply spent 10 days feeling shit not being able to do much... Life... lol

Another good achievement I managed to get in 2021 was the Hive Helped badge:

I remember when the new member @asteel joined Hive and I decided to drop him 10HP extra to boost his start.

I haven't seen you around on Hive for quite a bit, are you doing ok bro?

Enough chit chat, let's get down to HPUD Biz

I do have almost 100 HBD in my account and I thought to swap them to Hive and power up with the other 28 Hive I have in there, but then I decided to keep them both liquid in my account, always good to have some HBD and HIVE liquid!

I do like trading and even though I have not been doing it actively for a bit I still have some random coins here and there on my trading accounts (just HODL for now lol), so I moved 100 Hive from my Binance to my Hive account and I will use them to do the Power Up this month!

Here is the usual process, I did it on Ecency:

I am trying to get my girlfriend here on Hive, I already dropped her 10HP once to boost her start but she didn't start yet, lol, but I am confident she will craft the introduction post at some point and she'll start posting here, so for this reason I wanted to drop her 10HP again to get the Helper Badge this year too, but then I noticed this rule:

The helpee must NOT have been previously powered-up by another account, i.e. it must be the first time it receives a power-up from someone else.

So I am not powering her up 10HP this month, if she will ever need help I can just drop her HP, HIVE or whatever, I wanted to do it today just for the badge lol

So I will keep this 10HP that I wanted to Power Up today to help another new account in the future, maybe if I ever manage to get my brother here I could give him the 10HP!

Or I can help a new random account that deserves a little boost! :) We will see...

So this is the new situation in my account, 100HP just added! HIVE LFG!

One last thing I am still not sure about is about all the other tribes, I don't know if I should power up POB, LEO, etc on their frontend, or just swap all to Hive and power up here? I'm very confused, I do use the POB tag every now and then and post in their community, but never really use their front end... I'm very confused here lol
LEO also I do post there sometimes and when I do I use their front end, I don't have much LEO in there now, maybe in the future if I'll keep using LeoFinance and earn something there I will power up everything! I'm very confused and for now I have been mainly using Hive, Ecency as the front end for the points, I do like Peakd too but I like Ecency because of their mobile app that makes it easy and quick to get on Hive so because of how I got used to it I'm mainly using Ecency!

Feel free to drop me some advices about this tribes matter, I will appreciate any help! Cheers! :)

@trippymane well done by not letting depressing moments interfere with your life online. And your girl will join when the time is right. Congrats again and for next month you can see in @hhym if there is a newbie who is blogging right to help him or her IR fish one out of the redfish room in TT

Thank you :)

@trippymane Hey I am sorry, I haven't been around much. I will try to be around more and would love to chat with you soon!!! ttyl my friend!

100HP is a massive power up, at least from my perspective. Well done!

You're right what you said about "being in a rut", and it's hard sometimes to pull yourself out of it, but you did it!
