Hello, how are you this month of October? May always be happy. Today is Hive Power Up Day, as it was last month. I also participated in Hive PUD and the Saturday Savers Club at the same time. This post is part of a commitment I made at the start of the year: HIVE POWER UP DAY AND MONTHLY GOAL
EXAMINE THE TARGET POWER-UP FROM THE PREVIOUS MONTH.
With a starting point of 603,158 HP at the start of the year, I increased my Hive power by 108,044 HP this month.

Despite not meeting my monthly target of 150 HP, I was able to increase my Hive Power gain from the previous month.
I still don't have time to post every day, as shown in the image above. However, my post count has increased since last month.
And, because the Hive Power addition this month is sufficient to delegate HP, and my Hive Power is still above 1300 HP, I delegated 100 HP to the 
TURN ON THE POWER TODAY.
I also took part in the #HivePUD celebration. I added 19 Hive Powers at the beginning of this month so that I could continue earning badges as part of my commitment to complete the collection by the end of the year.
I've been collecting badges which motivates me to finish them by the end of 2023.
Aside from that, I joined the Saturday Savers Club with 
FINAL EXAMINATION
I didn't put much effort into improving my account in 2022, but I'm starting to set goals for 2023 in order to have it strong enough by the end of the year. I hope that what I'm doing will inspire other Hivers to contribute to increasing Hive's power to better the Hive community.
Thank you for sticking with me this far. Hopefully, you can take something away from what I've said. If you are a new HIVE user who is just getting started, I hope you can set some goals for this year as well.
So, how about you? Have you used your power today?
It's not too late.
