#MyHiveGoals - Patience!
I'm starting off this post with a little personal news...
Over the past month and a bit, I was employed at a job I hated. Not going to lie. While I was grateful for the opportunity, I dreaded waking up every day. I was constantly getting yelled at my more experienced workers who obviously had no patience for someone just learning how the job was done.
I've been working for myself for over 20 years, so let's jut say I wasn't used to being 'talked down to' in a place of employment. I took it for the first 4 weeks, but on Tuesday I had enough.
I let my supervisor know, I was done and thanked him for the opportunity. But then there I was....Unemployed lol
A very strange position for me to be in, but I knew that I was going to need a new job, very quickly too. I immediately applied at multiple positions on Tuesday and had set up an interview at a new place of employment for Wednesday.
Long story short, I went to the interview and got hired on the spot. And for the rest of the week, I was in training for what looks to be, the perfect position. Something I literally dreamed about getting when I started this 'trucking' stuff way back in January.
Patience.
A few lessons for me during this adventure.
First is to know your worth, and don't accept being talked down to. And second, the right job or opportunity will alway show up. You just need patience (and a whole lot of faith lol)
Similar to our journey here on the blockchain...
We all KNOW that this chain has all the right ingredients. And while we aren't respected like we all think we should be in the crypto world, we maintain our efforts for the future that is coming!
Brighter days are ahead here, and in the meantime, we continue to build. Grow our accounts. Add value to the chain. And stack!!
This is my journey, once again, over the past 7 days on chain....
150,000 Hive Power
Things you always love to see :)
Constant and steady growth oh $HIVE power!
150,000 - 92,554.005 = 57,446 left to go
One of the most exciting aspects of growing your Hive Power is the ability you have to delegate HP to different programs.
Last week I increased my delegation to @leo.voter and added some delegation to @hivecuba
HP allows you to be an investor in projects and communities that help this blockchain grow. How cool is that???
100,000 LEO Power
This was a pretty cool week for me on $LEO
I surpassed 60,000 LEO Power on my journey to 100k, and it happened pretty quickly. Just seems like yesterday, I was at 50k...
100,000 - 60,447.27 = 39,552.73 left to go
I've been adding LEO by my daily cost averaging plus getting plenty from the delegation, creation and curation.
Still about 40k left to go, but I'm on the journey.
100 Hive / Day Rewards
The past few weeks, have been a little slower than normal with the creation rewards. But what I'm really happy about is that I've still been able to create, every day of the week! With my new job, it's going to be tricky to keep that schedule, but excited to see how I manage it all.
A little dip from last week in the curation APR. 8.82% was what I added over the past 7 days :)
I also added 20 more $HBD to savings, so my total is now 90 HBD
Let's see how we did this week:
28.61 Rewards from Creating
11.11 Rewards from Curating
13 Rewards from Misc.
Total rewards = 52.72 per day
Not a bad week at all :)
Would love to generate more $HBD though this coming week, so I can start really stacking that and seeing it grow. But I'm very happy with the results over the past 7 days :)

I hope you will reach your goals soon mate!
That's the ultimate goal for sure. So for now, I need to work to set myself up for the future. Living off my efforts on the blockchain would be my dream job.

I think once we cross 30s, the experienced people have no patience towards us as they expect we are adult too so we should know everything, even in the jobs that we didn't do. That kind of happens everywhere. Tolerance becomes hard as we gain the experience.
Yeah for sure. It's just how I was talked to. Constantly disrespected. Not the kind of environment I wanted to be in.

Congratulations @jongolson your positive attitude really paid the price, I have learned more from you and I will also delegate as much as I can now
Appreciate that, thanks for the kind words!

Thanks, yeah it's my first time working for others in over 25 years. But still, no one should have to deal with the disrespect like that.

I think no matter how good paying a job is if it has a toxic environment, it will only compromise your mental health. You did the right choice by knowing your worth and not settling for less. I am not on track of my hive finances here but I would like to learn how to manage them just like what you did.
Exactly my thinking too. It paid really good. But the co-workers ruined it for me.

That's sad reality. We can't avoid toxic coworkers. I'm afraid I would encounter more of that in the future.
It's a slow process but good luck on your trucking job. It's tough but you have to find a way to pay the bills when we are in a bear market.
Nice progress on your goals.
I can't wait to get started. I actually have butterflies in my stomach cause I am excited lol

A job you hate in a toxic environment is pure torture. I hope your new position in the new job will be much better.
Oh man, only 3 days there, and I already love it.

Great to hear it Jon!
Why you don't set a goal to hold your own token CTP?
Did that for the past 3 plus years. I think it's pretty obvious, I wanna grow CTP :) Haven't sold a single token since day one, and will do everything I can to spread it out to more people. I don't wanna be the main token holder of CTP.

Cool, and you are committed for a least 3 to 5 years from now to building this community. I ask this question because I would like to increase my position in your token.
Kudos to you and I wish you well on your dreams
Having 90HBD is great
It is not bad
Thanks very much. It's on the journey back up the hill now!

You are doing a great job reaching those goals.
Appreciate it, thanks man!

Stacks on Stacks! Looks like the hive power is moving along nicely. HBD would be great right now at 20% APR but it's a challenge to get it for free right now lol
Dude, I dunno what happened lol I got the upvote love a ton about a month or two ago. lol

Congratulations on reaching 60,000 LEO Power and making steady progress towards your goal of 100,000! It's inspiring to see your commitment to daily cost averaging, delegation, creation, and curation, which have contributed to your impressive growth.
Maintaining a consistent schedule of creating content, even with a new job, shows your dedication and passion for the platform. It's understandable that there might be challenges, but your excitement to manage it all is admirable.
