Getting My Feet Wet at Hive's Saturday Saver's Club `January 24, 2023` Author's Note: This was originally posted in Hive : https://ecency.com/hive-167922/@jloberiza/wetting-my-feet-in-saturdays?referral=jloberiza I admit, I was not able to write actively in Hive or in any blogging platform for the past few months. I told myself "being busy" is not a valid excuse. It's just a matter of setting my priorities. To set my priorities, I have to set my goals. Thus, I have to set my goals here in Hive, particularly in my earning and savings goal. I find setting my goals in Hive is quite difficult though. My earnings from my articles are not consistent. However, I have to set my goals one way or another. So, I came up with a strategy. Greetings my dear readers. This is a cross-post of my Article in Hive. I believe, participating the Saturday Saver's Club is a great way to practice the principle of saving first before spending. Start with what I've Got. In Jan 8, I recorded how much I have in terms of Hive, HP, HBD and Savings. Then recorded what I have before I started writing this article.

Thus in the past 16 days and with only 4 articles, I gained 8.95 HP, 1.763, HBD and 0.8 savings. In the past 16 days, I earned 6.560 HP and 2.022 from one of the four articles that I have submitted. The the rest, I earn an average of 0.007 per curated article. Start With Achievable Goals Perhaps to avoid frustration, I want start with a small and achievable goals based on the data above. HP +20 HBD +4 Savings +2 My Plan There's no other way to achieve my goals. I have to **do more every single day!** I have to make at least one post a day. If I am lucky (the thing is I don't believe in luck), if at least two of my articles will earn more than 6 HP each then that's more than half of my goal. From what I have learned from @curamax's post (A Beginners Guide to Earning 150 Ecency per day), I can use my Ecency to boost my posts and gain more exposure, and perhaps gain more upvotes. https://ecency.com/ecency/@curamax/a-beginner-s-guide-to?referral=jloberiza Not only that, I also need to increase my overall participation in Hive by upvoting, commenting and reblogging! In Closing This is just my trial goals. If I can achieve these in less than seven days then I have to adjust my goals. What I have to keep in mind is, if I want to gain more, I have to do more! That means, I have to write more!
