While preparing for this post, I came across an acronym for the word "Goals". Here:
G - Grow what matters
O - One step
A - At a time.
L - Little by little, your
S - Steps will add up
In a sentence, this reads "Grow what matters one step at a time. Little by little, your steps will add up" In other words, whatever goal you are to set should be what matters and in my case, I am determined to grow my hive account and presence which is what matters.
I do not intend on setting the goals in my head because there is a quote that says
If you have a goal, write it down. If you do not write it down, you do not have a goal, you have a wish. - Steve Maraboli
So here are my written goals.
◾ Hive Power: At the time this post was made I had a 13HP which is rather low. So I intend on getting to a 200+ HP by the end of 3 months. I know that is way too high looking at where I am now, but guess what, I am very optimistic. I know what I need to do to get me to that height, I will share them in the next question.
◾ Followers: Actually, I realized that not everyone fancies this followership thingy but well here is my goal concerning that. In the last 10 days, I gained 9 new followers. I currently have 35 wonderful friends following and I intend on getting 75 more so it can sum up to 100+ followers.
◾ Hive Reputation: At the time when I applied for the Newbies Initiative, that is a month ago I had 45 as my hive reputation.
I am glad that I was able to get an extra 5 HR in a space of one month. This is my current HR
I intend on getting a 60 Hive Reputation at the end of 3 months.
◾ Comments and engagement: I love it when I make a post and people leave comments behind, it makes me know that there are people who took their time to go through my content and it encourages me, so I see no reason why I shouldn't leave the same feeling in the minds of others. I currently have made about 241 comments, I recently just started commenting often.
So I intend on increasing the number of comments to 1000+. It may sound ridiculous but still very achievable. I also intend on replying and upvoting very often. In fact, for every comment I leave I always leave an upvote.
This is a very good question, there is this saying
A goal without a plan is just a wish.
So even as you set your goals, you should also make a plan to achieve your goals.
◾ Hive Power: My plan in achieving this is by creating and posting quality content more often, at least 3 times a week, doing this will increase my hive power steadily. I also plan on staking hive, I have never done this before but I will power up hive as much as I can. I will also participate in contests held in communities.
◾ Followers: I will try to be all viby and enthusiastic with people. Engaging with people positively and also being very active in peoples comment sections like @otuyanancy
◾ Hive Reputation, comment, and engagement: For the hive reputation, I believe active posting and engagements increase your hive reputation. So I plan on doing just that. Comment and engagement, I am certain I can make 10 comments a day, if I leave 10 comments for the next 90 days I should be arriving at 900 comments, which if added to my current 241 comments would get me to 1000+ total comments.
◾ Power Supply: The very first challenge I am bound to face in achieving these goals is the instability of power supply in my country. This is the greatest challenge for me, well I do have 2 phones so whenever one is down I use the other.
◾ Time: I work and have my normal life to live. Most times I return from work late at night and would be very stressed to do anything. But it is a goal, I have to achieve it by all means
◾ Power Supply again: Lol, this is a very disturbing problem.
That would be all for my goals set. If you read till this point, I say a big thank you to you.
