Hey everyone, a few weeks ago I decided to start this series where I track my main goal of reaching 100k Steem Power by the end of 2018 along with a few other goals I have as well. I was originally going to do this every week, but with so many things changing so rapidly in the crypto space and elsewhere, I'm thinking of making this a more regular update - probably every 2-3 days.
My vested Steem Power is up 31% this week and I just hit 900 followers this morning! Thank you all so much for your support, this wouldn't be possible without all of you!!
I hope I can inspire some of you to make some audacious goals of your own for your life & Steem adventures and I also hope you share your progress with me! Remember: sharing your goals and progress in the comments will get you some upvotes!! Please also leave your thoughts on your fellow Steemians' goals, the community engagement is what will keep us accountable as well as grow on Steem! Let's get on the ship together my friends 🚀🌕
Here's the layout for these posts:
- I talk about the goal - why I want to achieve it, when I want to achieve it by, etc.
- I show the progress bar from the last post
- I show the current progress bar and compare the difference
Steem Power Goals
Steem Follower Goals
~ New ~ Real Estate Project Goals
This is a new section I recently decided to add. I just recently started sharing the Brunner project with all of you and that's the my first renovation project of 2018! The work is already underway and I'm expecting the renovation to be complete in the next 4 weeks! The house will then go on the market and then hopefully be sold by May of 2018!
Last year, I completed 2 real estate projects. This year I'm hoping to triple that and complete 6 projects. My ability to do so many more projects is due, in large part, to my success in cryptocurrencies and on Steemit. Thank you all for your continued support and I hope to find ways to get you all involved in the process of real estate design, investing, etc.!!!
Here's the Question of The Day, don't forget to post your answers in the comments!
What are your 2018 goals and how is your progress on them as we finish the first month of 2018? Share your progress so that we can all keep each other accountable and reach the moon together! 🚀🌕
Thanks for reading! Don't forget to leave your thoughts below and I look forward to seeing you in the comments!

Thank you for sharing the progress of your goals @khaleelkazi. This is interesting that you are actually getting closer to your goal by posting about it. You have gained more followers and more steem in the process.
I listed a few goals in your last post about goals.
My results so far come to this:
Thanks for reading and supporting @mineopoly!! Yes, Steem provides me that amazing opportunity that I can actually just talk about interesting things in my life as well as my goals and actually progress towards my goals for doing so! It's a huge blessing!
Your goals are amazing and I see you're making some great progress!! Keep up the good work! I have to also check out that dolphin training, I'm not really sure what that's about, but it sounds interesting! Thanks for sharing and I hope more people are inspired to share their goals here as you have!
We did dolphin day one and it was kind of what you do already like explore tags you are interested it, find followers, use steemtools. I made a post about it. @markrmorrisjr has been around Steemit a lot longer than us so I figure there must be something I will learn. I'll keep you posted.
It's hard for me to accomplish my goals on steemit because of the low bandwidth limit for new accounts. 90% of the time I can't post or comment. Someone was even nice enough to deligate me 20 steem power yesterday, and I power up everything I make, but I still am having a hard time. I'll be happy to gain at least 300 followers a month organically. I think 50,000 in steempower with $0 invested is my goal by the end of the year. I'm a bit different than most people so my personal goal for the year is to find my first gold nugget prospecting. Hope you achieve all your real estate and steemit goals. Congrats on the almost 1000 followers.
Hey @dirtyhippie! I've heard a few others talking about the bandwidth issue as well. I think it's due to the large number of people making new accounts and the insanely fast growth that Steem is seeing. The best solution, in my opinion, is to invest a little money to get started. I'm not sure on the exact numbers, but someone mentioned to me that $40 did the trick for them. Hope that helps.
I love your goals! They are both audacious and achievable and I really look forward to seeing you progress towards them! Thanks also for your support, I'm so happy to be here and look forward to the months to come!
Thanks for the reply I wasn't aware that may be the cause. I appreciate your advise. I need to list a few pieces of jewelry and such on steembay so I can grow my steempower that way.
so cool nice view
Thank you. ☺
Currently at roughly 460SP, shooting for 5000 by years end, at 290ish followers and shooting for 2000 by years end!
I also want to get back in shape and start doing work I'm passionate about. Steemit has been a good start :)
Hey @jakeybrown!! Thanks for sharing your goals! I look forward to seeing your progress!!! You're basically looking to 10x your account and I love your audacity and ambition! I believe in you!
10x is a great moonshot goal! Good luck with that!
Thanks, I'm gonna nail these targets! Glad to see you on here motivating! You've done an awesome job of growing your own account!
My original goal was to pay my rent with proceeds from Steemit. This is still my goal but sometimes we need a course correction. Initially I thought just getting a SP delegation would do it. I have that now but it isn't going to generate the profits I was hoping for did to the dramatically increased renewal price.
I am now going to have to increase my efforts in getting to know people in the community. More work but better in the long run!
Thanks for the inspirational post!
Yes @sequentialvibe, the extension cost has become very high!! Last month I timed my extensions when the price of STEEM fell to around $3.20 and that helped a lot.
Increasing your own SP is the best way to have a secure income from Steem, it's a longer route, but much more rewarding in the end!
Thanks for sharing your goals and aspirations! I'm rooting for your success and know that you'll achieve whatever you set your mind to! Keep up the good work!
Yeah the steem price falling was a great opportunity!
Still working up my way to 10k SP. Slowly but surely. Probably gonna lease some soon. Hopefully blocktrades can offer delegation soon.
Followers at around 440+ now, so I'm very happy about that. Hoping to reach 700 in February.
Real estate for me no where near anything yet. But definitely brewing in my mind :)
Hey @danielwong! Thanks for sharing your goals! I just saw a recent update from Blocktrades today that they are planning on releasing the delegations again "sometime in the next 2 weeks". I'm excited for them to reopen as well!
That's a great goal! I hope to see you achieve it in Feb!!
Those are great goals! I hope to achieve something similar on here over the next year or so!
It still surprises me how you have accomplished so much, seeing we joined Steemit same Month and Year; September 2017 and am still far from where you've reached. I know it took lot of sacrifices. You are an Encouragement to me. Keep it up!!! Keep growing @khaleelkazi
STEEM ON!!!
Thank you so much @njokuoluchukwu!! I really appreciate your kind words!! I see that you've also made some great progress with your account as well, keep up the good work! What are some of your goals for 2018? How many followers are you looking to gain? How much SP are you looking to power up? Would love to hear your goals, thanks for your support!
My goals! Hmmmm... Right now I'm just focusing on Promoting Steemit, Registering Newbies and Having ENOUGH SP to support these Newbie either by Delegations or by Personal investment in Steem. You can check out this post HERE it will tell you the progress so far we have made in Promoting Steemit and Helping Newbie as a Community; the CREDO KOMMUNITY and as an Individual.
Those are my few goals for 2018 @khaleelkazi. You can visit the Credo Kommunity to see more.
Yeah
It's not about how long you've been here but setting goals and hitting them, i think you will do better if you start now
100% agree @samiwhyte! The key is to know where you're headed so that you can ensure that you get there!
Yes! It's like that old saying: know the direction you wish to point your sail!
True @khaleelkazi
💯% TRUE
I also had a big week for growth! You're shooting up SO fast though! Nice job!
That’s awesome to hear @snrm!!! The platform is getting a record number of sign ups and I see that you’re doing a great job by posting regularly as well! As the platform grows so shall we my friend, keep up the good work! Do you have any specific targets for your account by the end of the year? I would love to hear them!
It does and it's still growing even now! I think we are about to hit 1M accounts!
I heard this recently as well... I think we're only a few thousand off
Yeah I just confirmed that w some data, it’s fantastic!
Thank you! I can't say I have any specific targets currently. I think you may have been the one that told me I should actually have targets before! Really I just plan on using all my SBD and Steem towards powering up for a long time. No plans to cash out some of my earned SBD anytime soon. Eventually I may take some small dividends, but not until I have a TON of Steem Power where I can really curate more and help people out with bigger upvotes :).
That's a great target - to focus on increasing your SP is a very powerful way to grow and earn on this amazing platform. I recommend making a specific number of SP that you're looking to hit. I find goals to be much easier and more satisfying to accomplish when there is a specific timeline and specific amount attached!!! Thanks for sharing your goal for STEEM and I look forward to hearing about your progress!!!
I agree, it's a great and tangible way to focus on constantly moving forward and growing!
Totally, focusing on growing SP is a great way to make sure you're on the right path. It's going to continue to get harder and harder to make SP as time goes on
Awesome brother! I'm also trying to grow and reach goals! This is a wonderful platform and I believe it will be here for years to come!!! Good luck to you as well....
Keep up the good work! Good luck to you my friend, we will all grow together!
Yes we will, keep up the good work too khal!
Congratulation man, I can see you are making some progress with respect to the goals you set at the beginning of the year. It's one thing to set goals, it's another thing to hit them, i will go back to my goals and check my progress so far.
Thanks @samiwhyte!!! I would love to hear your goals and your progress on them thus far!
Great work, i want to do the same thing you did, my only problem is the damn bandwidth issues minnows get now... but im sure with time and patience i will get to 1k followers too
Thanks! Yeah the easiest method I can think of to fix the bandwidth issue is to just buy and power up alittle steem. @mineopoly also gave some great tips here!
The problem is that even without using steemit i can get negative bandwidth just because the network is full... negative ! i went to bed yesterday without bandwidth and woke up without bandwidth, luckly it seems that it's getting better, probably ppl leaving because of the bandwidth issue, i dont mind, i keep posting and getting more sp, sooner or later i will have bandwidth all day, perseverance and consistency
Bandwith tip one: Vote only a percentage and wait a couple hours beteen each vote. Use something like busy.org that offers a slider. Don't collect your rewards at one time. Let them pile up. It takes bandwith when we collect curation rewards. Don't resteem too much and don't follow too much. One of my problems when I started was following everybody. This takes bandwith too. Look at their blog first. If you like it then follow. And the easy solution is buy some Steem and power up.
congratulations i think you achive this putting ur effort on this platform.its not an easy achive any gole easily we have to make a plan nd work hard on that. after that it can b possible i think! im i right?
take care!!
you'r welcome! ;) Good luck Khaleel..
Thank you!
Yes! Good luck with the progress, I see it's going well!
Good luck! It does seem to be going super well, glad you could help out as well! Thanks for everything you do!
Congratulations on the follower base your getting great information by the way im new and only have 4 follower so far and i been putting out some good ingo on cryptocurrency and on Steemit vs youtube its harder then it looks incan say that but younhave a new follower its me :) so if you dong mind taking a look at my post and letting my know what im doing wrong i would really appreciate your help thank you
Good luck!
Best of luck! Hopefully this platform continues to grow like it has been so we can all prosper!
Thank you! I know that it will continue to grow and as long as you provide value in the forms of content, curation and engagement, you will grow alongside all your fellow steemians!! Thanks for your suport
That's phenomenal advice, I hope people follow it to be better on Steem!
Me too! It will be amazing for everyone on the platform
My aim for this year is
Hi @khaleelkazi,
I like your resolutions.
Here is a good scenario to get followers (I'm not spamming):
https://steemit.com/steemit/@chloeroy/supporting-minnows-we-are-supporting-the-steem-future
Delegating some SP will make you an icon in the community and it will grant you a lot of followers.
Thanks.
Best of luck on the goal bro.
Congratulations to you! Hopefully you do well in the future.
Thanks!
I know you will continue to do well, keep it up my friend!
Wishing for your success! Good luck with all your projects as well
I'm pretty happy with how I'm doing, given that I've only been active for a couple of days. Gotta keep it up though.
Posts like these show me what's possible though... Really inspiring for sure!
a good opportunity to win. It is a very good event to evaluate this opportunity. you will definitely reach your goals at the end of the year.
Thank you, Khaleel for the motivation and setting it right. The goal that I have set in life for 2018 is that I need to start earning $3000 per month by 1st Jan 2019 apart from my current salary so that I can save all it for my child education and future for my family.
Apart from that, I started on Steemit last week of December. I would like to work as hard as possible until 31st Dec 2018 by giving up leisure and fun time:
I wish you all the success in the time to come and you reach your goals.
Thanks for supporting!
Will always support you buddy, and I always appreciate the support back. Big things are coming!
Big things indeed! Love the positivity here!
