“Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.”
– Viktor Frankl
Hello, beautiful souls in the Hive and in this amazing community!
The first month of the year has passed by so quickly and just a little less than 2 weeks left of it and the next month comes. Oh, not that I am pulling it to arrive so soon, but how time goes by is quite surprising, is it not?
And of course, along with the passing of time is the glaring truth that we aren't getting any younger although we don't really want to think about that, do we? LOL! No? Okay, let me change that, along with the passage of time are the goals we have that we want to be achieved. (Now that sounded a lot better hehe).
Honestly, I have not really made many new goals this year except those that I already mentioned in my previous article where I have written that...
- I intend to stay fit and healthy (because good health is the best wealth for me and it surely is no fun to be unhealthy);
- to reach at least 1200HP on my Hive account;
- to travel to at least 5 of the 13 towns in our region.
Not that the new year's list is totally starting off from a blank slate because we do have some long-term goals and they are also part of our list. Please don't ask me how long they have been there though, it makes me cringe a bit, lol!
But one thing I've discovered about goals is that they come and go unannounced, that is if we recognize them and the need to work toward their achievement. If we don't, then they will just fade away. With that said, I realized I have some more to add to the list above, because why not, right? So here's to share some of them in two categories.
Fun & Travel
I am aware we have all been wanting to go some places and had Mr. Covid not invaded our world, most of us would probably have gone elsewhere already. But this year, the green light's a little brighter after we had our vaccines. Not to be complacent of course, we still need to be careful and ensure our own and other people's safety.
So yes, this year, the farmboy and I agreed to have at least 5 road trips to anywhere, but preferably within or around the locality. It's a kind of reinforcement to the third item on the above list. Why? Because it is quite funny that although we have gone to other far places, we have yet to explore our own yard (place). It would be really cool to visit some this year and to write about them too :)
Another would be a trip to the beach. It has been a few years since the last time that our family went down the lowlands. Even my siblings are lamenting that they missed the sea. We have been to swimming pools in some resorts but the sea is really different.
Hive Goals
In addition to the goal of having at least 1200HP within the year, I intend to participate in the PUM and PUD for at least 6 months. This, I think will keep me disciplined and hone my determination too. I don't know how my account will be faring in the coming days, weeks, or months, but it is my goal to make it grow and I intentionally do the work to make it so.
The second would be to learn more about the Hive blockchain. I have read several times that Hive isn't just about blogging and I would want to explore more of the other possibilities that it offers. I've just started checking into NFTs here but have yet to delve deeper. And I have to thank for the introduction to it and for the gorgeous PobPunk that found its way to my account too, thank you :)
I am always open to learning and I welcome suggestions and recommendations from others, but that doesn't mean I just dive in blindly.
These are some of my goals for 2022 and I sincerely hope that I would be able to check them off (along with the others that I have not mentioned here) before the year ends.
This is my entry to the #BoM for this month and I invite you to participate as well and renew your commitment to your goals by writing them out here in the open. Check the mechanics HERE.
Many thanks for your time and I wish you success in all your dealings :)
