RE: My Second Power Up Day

in LeoFinance2 years ago

"I also came across this really cool group who are making a game at the moment for the Hive blockchain which is going to be a First and Third-person shooter set in a dystopian cyberpunk world."

That sounds just like my type of thing ... so I had better avoid it, haha. I already don't have time to focus on what I know that I should be doing; what I returned to the social blockchain for. I'm so very tempted to take a look at Psyber X now! 😁

"...in the month of February, I grew my HP from 100 to 150."

This is my goal for March 2022. However, I do not / can not afford to contribute fiat currency to my HIVE account, as I don't have the spare disposable income for that. My gains over the last couple of months have mainly been from powering down my old legacy social blockchain accounts, and powering up my new @frittro account.

"Well, okay 152.108, which I think is a major achievement."

I totally agree! Well done matey, that is a great achievement. I hope that I will do so well in March.

"Since the 1st of January, I have posted daily to Hive and I think that has really helped me boost my account."

I still struggle with this. Being a bit of a perfectionist, it takes me a while to knock out a new post, and I strive for quality over quantity. This is no disparagement of anyone else's blogging abilities; and is more about my own limitations. It takes me longer than most people to achieve what I would consider a blog post that is worthy of hitting the "Publish" button on. In short, I am my own worst critic!

"The bee with a 12 beside it would look a lot nicer than one with a 2 after all."

I salute you! Your account growth for February looks a lot more consistent than mine was, and clearly your efforts with daily posting are paying off.

Upvoted, Commented & Reblogged.

The daily posting is really hard, but, I've enjoyed pushing myself to do it. I've been so happy with myself to keep at it. I know so many people who criticise themselves way too much, sometimes it's better though to relax and just let your stuff get out there. We all have to wear our dirt on sleaves sometimes. Second-guessing yourself is always a bad idea.

I think it helps that I'm a fast typer. Most of the time it's like meditation, I'm thinking and typing at the same time and read through changing things then read again to make sure it makes sense then once more for good luck. Sometimes I read it one final time after I've posted it to make any edits for anything that slipped past. Luckily though that doesn't happen often.

Psyber X is well worth looking at to see what they're doing, but, I know what you mean haha I'm worried about what'll happen to my free time when it releases.

Yeah, I can't afford to put much into Hive either at the moment, but, I'm hoping for brighter days.

I've never heard of Legacy, is that the same as Hive?

"The daily posting is really hard, but, I've enjoyed pushing myself to do it."

I can imagine! I returned to the social blockchain specifically to blog regularly about my new #homelab that I am setting up, running #NextCloud on a #RaspberryPi. However, I haven't even done many posts yet about that subject so far. Only 3/10 of my posts thus far have had anything at all to do with my #homelab. It is so easy to get distracted, haha.

"Sometimes I read it one final time after I've posted it to make any edits for anything that slipped past. Luckily though that doesn't happen often."

Like me, you are your own worst critic, lol. I am such a perfectionist, and I always take ages proofreading my posts.

"...I'm worried about what'll happen to my free time when it releases."

Yep, don't tempt me further, I think I might be very susceptible to this one. I used to play steempunknet_18px.png #steempunknet, which sadly isn't around any more. Have a look at my post from 2018 about this though, and you'll see what it was all about.

"I've never heard of Legacy, is that the same as Hive?"

The "legacy social blockchain" is how I tend to refer to Steem these days. When I returned to the social blockchain this year, after an absence of three years, I learned about what had transpired on the old ("legacy") social blockchain. A lot of people here who went through those times are still very unhappy about the way that they were treated back then. And I don't blame them either, as I'm sure I would have been too. But out of respect for what they went through, I now refer to those days as the "legacy social blockchain", and try not to mention the actual name as much.
