I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 6 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙
Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
I love HPUD weeks, not only because I get to participate in that wonderful monthly tradition, but also because with the boost from my HPUD powerups, I'm usually able to exceed 200 HP in growth from one week to the next. My birthday HPUD powerup on Thursday took me past 10,400 HP, and with its boost, I'll easily surpass 10,500 HP at some point this week. Although my HP is not increasing as quickly as it is for those who are focusing on it almost exclusively, sometimes with external fiat investments, I've built quite an effective and reliable stream of passive HIVE income over time, which has allowed me to powerup around 50 HIVE for every HPUD for quite some time now. That really adds up over time.
It's not only with HIVE that I've build consistent passive income steams, of course, with me receiving a near constant rain of myriad layer-1 and layer-2 assets into my wallet, many of which I use to continue investing and leveraging, to keep opening the faucet of my Hive Multi-Stream Passive-Income Machine ever wider. I have several large investments, and a whole bunch of smaller ones, across assorted investment domains, most of which are growing quite well. So many investment seeds have been planted, and continue to be planted, and the majority of them are sprouting and growing in an exciting way. Yes, there are a few duds here and there, but that's just part and par for the course of Hive investment gardening.
It's no secret that the abundant seeds that I've planted in a large number of diesel/liquidity pools are exciting me more all the time, because as I continue to add liquidity, the growth rate of the assets in these pools also keeps accelerating. The more we have, the faster it all grows, which is the lovely magic of compounding interest and exponential growth, and the pools are based on it, so I'm blasting them with my investment hose.
The reallocation of assets from the DEC:SPS pool to the SWAP.HIVE:DEC and SWAP.HIVE:SPS pools was a good decision, because at least one of those assets, DEC, is already growing faster than it was before. I haven't reached the payout threshold for the SWAP.HIVE:SPS pool yet, but as soon as I get the rest of the DEC in my wallet into the SWAP.HIVE:DEC pool, which is paying of extraordinarily well, I'll refocus on adding my SPS into the SWAP.HIVE:SPS pool, which will likely take a bit more time and patience, since the liquidity in that pool is about 3 times more than for the SWAP.HIVE:DEC pool, so the threshold for pool fees will also be a bit higher.
A few more pools also reached the threshold for pool-fee payouts over the last couple days, which is always fantastic to see. Since I'm already past 100 pools in which I have assets, it's definitely been taking me a little longer to get through them all each day, especially because it's a bit of back and forth, since some assets have to be added to some pools before others, to most effectively and efficiently leverage them. HP leasing has been a game changer for me with the pools, because added to the SWAP.HIVE that I receive from the weekly BBH payouts, and more significantly what I receive of it from daily liquidity-reward payouts from various pools, I now have a comfortable daily amount of investment liquidity to keep investing in the pools. That's the idea, to set up systems that provide me the resources that I need every day to keep investing over time. Yep, that's fun stuff indeed!
Yesterday, Sunday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive tasks, a little after 2:30PM, giving my time to an enjoyable change in my routine. Soozi (to whom I deliver a quart of my superfood fire coffee every day) bought and made some food, and wanted to give me a mini birthday party (since I didn't do anything different on my birthday), so I went over to her place, and we shared conversation over carrot cake, cheese cake, tuna dip, salsa, potato chips, red wine, and a little ganja. It felt really good to just sit and relax, without having to rush off to get things done. After spending time with Soozi, I stopped by the Landing to collect my jar of leftover superfood fire coffee from the fridge, and I headed back to the Flow House, to get into my evening Hive tasks, and to catch up on my notifications. I got everything done by just after 9:30PM, and after some asset management, and a scan of my X feed, I went to bed around 12AM. I woke up later than usual, a bit after 8AM, still feeling that I needed more sleep, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the Landing, returning to the Flow House to write and publish My 166th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update: 10,500 HP This Week, and Some Pool Adjustments, then to begin immediately on this post. It's now just after 1:15PM, so a marvelous time to wrap this up, so that I may get to my few other important Hive tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on photography for my posts, and then community/land work. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's edition of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
2025 Life Goals
1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.
2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.
3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.
4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.
All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.
Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
