The challenge is not at the beginning but at the end. That's why, we can use the easy start to prepare for the tougher weeks ahead. <p dir="auto">In my case, I started with 1 HBD in week 1. This is also the step that increases the amount I need to save every week. The rule is, in my case: I need to add to savings the amount of HBD per week equal to the week number in the challenge. That means, in week 52 I'll need to save 52 HBD. <p dir="auto">We are in the 31st week of the 52-week HBD challenge. That means I added 31 HBD to the savings for this particular goal, and reached 496 HBD, without counting the accrued interest. <p dir="auto">Here's how things look right now:<br /><span> <img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmTgRoYH4696Jo5oPXHMd2RYc8mEMSsMrCT8qdZ89uuM7y/image.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmTgRoYH4696Jo5oPXHMd2RYc8mEMSsMrCT8qdZ89uuM7y/image.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmTgRoYH4696Jo5oPXHMd2RYc8mEMSsMrCT8qdZ89uuM7y/image.png 2x" /> <p dir="auto"><span><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmSDHkV4CNQTpq8VnYGSMEG1HJedHdH4zBWpHrnMqNHWmK/image.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmSDHkV4CNQTpq8VnYGSMEG1HJedHdH4zBWpHrnMqNHWmK/image.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://img.inleo.io/DQmSDHkV4CNQTpq8VnYGSMEG1HJedHdH4zBWpHrnMqNHWmK/image.png 2x" /> <blockquote> <p dir="auto"><sup>Note: You can see there is already a small discrepancy in the totals between the spreadsheet and what is in the wallet. That is because of some approximations and easy calculations in the spreadsheet. <p dir="auto">Not sure how much I added from my reserves this week because I received my EDSD withdrawal during the week and kept what I needed for this week's challenge and moved the rest in the reserves, without paying attention at the breakdown. Can be tracked, but it's not worth the effort. <p dir="auto"><em>Total HBD remaining to add to complete this challenge (broken down into increasing weekly targets): <strong>882 HBD. <p dir="auto">Already added (without counting the accrued interest): <strong>496 HBD. <h2>Posting & Commenting Goal <p dir="auto">I haven't missed a daily post this year yet.

Overall, I reached the 81st edition of the weekly roundup which debuted at the beginning of 2023. <p dir="auto">I also started the week with 19,690 comments made.

It's annoying to keep track of things sometimes so I don't blame you. The end result is what matters more unless you want to figure out how much you added in reserves at the end of the year.
I didn't track this from the start to add them up for the end of the year, but it would have been a nice figure to have then.
I have been following you for a long time now this is the only way when we make an intention and work day and night on it success starts to come to us.
Haha, let's hope you are right!
Great work! You are stacking up some great tokens and an impressive amount of HBD! Way to go!
Thanks!
I think the daily goal of saving 1HBD daily makes sense
What if someone wants to do below 1HBD daily?
Is that possible?
Any goal is possible. Mine is based on a well-known 52-week challenge, and starts by saving 1 HBD in week 1, 2 HBD in week 2 and so on, until 52 HBD in week 52. So it's progressive as time passes. Saving 1 HBD a day is fine, but it's linear. You save 7 HBD every week.
Sincerely I felt wowed reading through your goals and fact you've missed almost nothing. That shows real discipline and commitment and I want you to keep it up. Since you've made it this far you will surely complete it, the remaining time of the year is lesser now. You inspired me. Thanks for writing.
Thanks for the nice words! Yes, achieving goals usually require discipline and commitment, you identified them well. Sometimes a little luck. And well-set goals.
It just makes sense to stack HBD the market is still very nervy.
Yeah, for the time being HBD is still ok. But I'll continue my 52-week challenge regardless of price evolution this year. I also have enough HIVE and other volatile tokens, so no need to have everything as HIVE.
You're right about that too.
It's incredible to know you are managing to post on the daily basis and also your comment ratio/week is also amazing. wonderful work.
Thanks! I'm not doing so well on the comments side. There is still time, but I lack motivation to comment more to push this number toward my target.
I’m sure by the time I begin to post well and earn more, I’d be able to save up too
It has always been on my mind
For now, I won’t withdraw my savings at all
Imma store them here
That sounds like the beginning of a plan. Good luck!
