Thank You 2022, Welcome 2023!

in #newyear2 years ago

It's the last day of 2022 and I can't believe the year is gone. It's been an interesting one and a learning period as well, as always. In a few hours we're going to enter a new year and have the possibility of a fresh start. This is more like an illusion as you can't delete what's happened in 2022 and can't forget things either, but even so, it's been always a chance to review your old year and make some plans about what and how to change things in the new year. This is a mental game and not a bad one I must admit.

I'm not fond of new year resolutions but I do have a list of things I'd like to do or change in the new year. This is important if you want to make some progress. Once you are satisfied with everything, you stop evolving and you will less likely make any progress in life. No matter how good you think you are, there's always room for improvement.

Without going into details, my health will take priority next year, no matter what. There are quite a few things to change and I need to work on that. Without a good health, one has nothing, so now is the time.

Smarter time management is also a priority, to have more time to study. Studying in your free time is nice but I need to make sure to have that free time, otherwise it's just a dream or something that happens once in a blue moon, which is not enough.

Hive had its 3rd birthday in 2022. (Can't believe it's been 3 and a half years already. I thought this was Hive's second birthday, had to look it up to be sure and avoid spreading misinformation.) Yes, there was a previous period on the legacy chain, the start happened there and was a good lesson for all of us, but as time passes, it becomes less and less important. Why? Because it was far from what we wanted, there was always a matter or us vs them and a constant fight for different reasons.

Since the fork, that happened in 2019, a lot has happened on Hive. Development, compared to what we had on the legacy chain has been insane. We have so many new projects going on, I can't even list them in a post.

Chart wise Hive did this in the last 3 and a half years. We had 7 red candles in 2022 (BTC had 8 by the way), which alone means nothing, if you don't compare it to the year open and year close level. We're at the level of July 2021 at the moment, but this is not a cause for worry. This is a time to accumulate for the next period if you're serious about it.

It's hard to predict the future, so no one knows what 2023 holds for us and Hive. However, looking back to the previous years, I don't think it's going to be bad, on the contrary. Those who are looking for a quick profit may be disappointed as Hive is not going to moon anytime soon, we don't know when the bear market is going to end. There are predictions everywhere but those are probabilities, never certainties.

Those who are here for long term, can see a different picture. They don't look at the price of Hive, or they look at it as an opportunity for a good investment as it's still early.

It's time to put an end to this year, enjoy the day/evening/night and have some fun. I hope you'll be here next year as well.

Happy New Year everyone!!! Have fun and see you in 2023!

Sort:  

Happy New Year to you and your family Erika :)

Happy New Year to you and your family too, see you in 2023 🙂

Happy New Year, ma'am! Since I joined my goal has never been to make a short term profit, I'm trying to stay here for the long term and build my future here. That's why I don't mind price drops. I think everyone should think this way but it's not easy to make some small farmers happy haha.

I hope next year will be better than this year and you will get everything you want. I wish you luck, happiness and health!

Happy New Year to you too and please don't call me ma'am. You make me look like I'm 100 years old 😂

Long term goals are the best as this place, as well as the base token needs to mature.

Thank you for the nice wishes, I wish you the same, may the new year bring you everything you want 😊

Okay Erikah I'll not call you ma'am from now on hahah. I didn't know we call old people as ma'am 😂.

Thank you so much for your nice wishes 😊.

2022 has been a great year, I'm excited to see you alive to this very moment, you have been an amazing person.
You have supported a lot of newbies and some old members in their publishing. This can only be done by someone that has a good heart and you are one of the amazing individuals on Hive.

Hive is growing every year and I know Hive just started breaking records in the web 3 ecosystem, I wish Hive long live.

Thank you for being an amazing person @erikah, wish you more wins and greater heights in the upcoming year.

Thank you for the nice words but I've only advised you a few times.

Hive has a bright future and we're fortunate to be here this early.

I wish you a Happy New York and let's meet in 2023, to continue what we do.

Sure we continue in 2023, thank you so much

Yes, I totally agree with you. New Year brings a hope in which you learn from your past mistakes and try to do something new. 2022 has not been good for the crypto market, But hopefully 20323 will be better than 2022. I wish you a very happy new year in advance.

I don't agree with you on crypto as no matter what market we're in, there are always opportunities, you just have to know how to ride the waves.

Happy New Year to you too.

Yes your correct . I agree with your ideas. Happy new year

Have fun too dear. We pray for a better year

Happy new year, Erika! Wish this new year will bring lot of happiness and Good reasons to Smile in our life.

Have always learnt something new from your experiences and advices you've posted this year. Really Glad to Came across your content and stay blessed... Keep doing the Good thing.

There's a fear deep down in my heart thinking about what 2023 holds but hopefully I wish it will be better in all or most aspects of our life.

Thank you @idksamad78699 I'm glad I could help. Happy New Year to you and to your family too.

Happy holidays @erikah and have a prosperous new year.

Happy New Year to you too and all the best in the new year!

This 2022 has been a down year for cryptocurrencies, but despite this, in 2023 I want to engage even more with blogging on the blockchain. Have a good year

Consistency is key here, so good luck and Happy New Year.

I too am convinced that constancy is important and is an indicator of how much one believes in the mission one is carrying out. Your words are important as you have a reputation of 78, which to me is a very high reputation. In this 2023 I want to work even harder

Happy new year! I hope you enjoy 2023.🥳

Same to you too, Happy New Year.

Happy new year @erikah, May you be more beautiful and blessed always

I'm afraid I'm only going to be ugly, but Happy New Year to you.

Ugly because of the age factor is reasonable. Everyone will feel it..
Both for his words

Happy new year to you and your family. This Year gives us huge lesson never invest money in bull market. Hopefully incoming year is good for us and crypto users. Hive is strong and trusted platform. I know hive incoming year's become more popular. Thanks for sharing.

This Year gives us huge lesson never invest money in bull market.

I disagree with that. There are golden opportunities in the bull market.

The year is as good as you make it to be. You need to learn how to make the most of each opportunity.

Happy New Year to you too.

Thank you @erikah for making hive a beautiful place for me to be in, and always coming thru for me when I needed clarity.

I wish you the best in 2023, good health and happiness shall be yours.

Stay safe always and thanks for being here.

My pleasure and happy to help. Thank you for the nice words and Happy New Year to you too. See you in 2023!

Wish you all the best in the new year

Thank you, same to you and Happy New Year!

Happy new years, erikah. May the year be good to us all!

Smarter time management is also a priority, to have more time to study. Studying in your free time is nice but I need to make sure to have that free time, otherwise it's just a dream or something that happens once in a blue moon, which is not enough.

It seems this is a message to me in particular. I really need a smarter time management, so I can handle schooling, blogging and also having free time to relax, study or do whatever I want.

I hope your 2023 is filled with progress, growth, and happiness. Happy New Year! @erikah

I'm not fond of new year resolutions but I do have a list of things I'd like to do or change in the new year. This is important if you want to make some progress.

This couldn’t have been said any better. I relate so well to this. To make progress in your life as a person you have to make the conscious decision to do or change your ways of doing some things.

I was equally not fond of new year resolutions but I was determined to level up so the start of the new year was just a really good note to start.

Thanks for sharing. And happy new year to you too. May you attract more peace in this new year.
