2024 was mix of everything. It begins with my academic examination, which went well. And I enrolled in a new school. It was not planned but it happened and I am enjoying the situation. Now I have my further studies, which is going on with lots of challenges. So far my 2024 has everything...nothing planned but everything falling in places.

Hello, @ecency family. I'm glad to participate in this activity everyday so thank you very much for the initiative. You're the best.

My 2024 has been a really hard year. With lots of ups and downs, but much more downs than ups. Lots of personal problems but with my family together we've been able to overcome them.

I don't really have stablished any goals for 2024 as last year I was very depressed and I wasn't thinking that my life was worthy, so I thought it was useless to stablish goals.

I'm so grateful that my family didn't let me down and with their support and with my therapist I've been able to overcome all that negativity and I started to see my life as something worthy again.

I'm facing 2025 with all the positive energy and a positive mentality so I can reach my goals in my personal life and now my goals here on Hive.

I'm ok now, I'm feeling good and I got lots of love to give and I'm happy to share it with all of you too.

Best wishes for you all.

Go beyond! Plus Ultra!

With 2025 in a few days time, I can say 2024 has been a rollercoaster ride for me; the year has been filled with a lot of ups and downs. Despite all the challenges, I can confidently say 2024 has been a wonderful year.

I will forever be grateful for all the opportunities that came my way and the lessons learned. I am grateful for personal growth; there has been a transformational growth in my mindset and ideology about how I used to think and see things.

I'm grateful for the gift of my family and friends.

2024 gave me a beautiful son; this is me choosing to focus more on the beautiful and positive things that the year has given to me.

Here's to an incredible 2024 and cheers to 2025 🥂.

Year was very busy for me. I can say 50/50 some changes like small trip with family or change place of work already done. But such things like build new garden house instead the old one are passed to the next year.

2024 turned out a wonderful year for me.
There were many challenging situations. We have economic and financial challenges because of the new policies our government were trying to enforce. We had to drive against the wind of high inflation rate and other challenging situations.

In all I could say this has improved my life and family life remarkably. I resorted to being more active on Hive Blockchain so as to be able to soothe the pains of economic hardship and honestly, we had much alleviation from that end. Most importantly, that makes me encounter new friends and communities that turn my activities here into a daily delights which I'm not going to give anymore.

Also, the help of God, has really be wonderful this year. I had the greatest business contract I have ever had since I started my profession. I was asked to produce and supply 2000 pieces of leather bags at the rate of N1400 to a government agency. That brought some money into my family which added new development to our house structure.

My husband is a pastor with The Redeemed Christian Church Of God (RCCG). The ministry really prospered in his hands this year. I saw do wonder works among our members such that increase really come to the church.

So, there were hard times this year, but through the grace of God and a little hard work on our side, we had a successful and Friday year.

And, I will grateful appreciate @ecency team for their support. Your support has really push me upward on the blockchain. Thank you and let do more next year.

The year 2024 has been, and is, because it is not over yet, a wonderful year 🎉, full of blessings 🙏, of goals accomplished 🏆, of meeting new friends in HIVE 🤝, of having created better writings in the same platform, because I have improved my suspense stories that I like to write so much 📚. I won a laptop to follow my creations 💻, two scholarships, one to study design 🎨 and the other to study and work as an SEO 🔍. My children are well 👨‍👩‍👦, my granddaughter is beautiful 👶, she has already turned two years old 🎂 and the rest of the family is fine 👪. We are all in good health 💪. I can't ask for more, I am happy 😊 and ready for 2025 🌟. I hope everyone has been doing as well as I have.
Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄

El año 2024 ha sido, y es, porque todavía no ha terminado, un año maravilloso, lleno de bendiciones, de metas cumplidas, de conocer nuevos amigos en HIVE, de haber creado mejores escritos en la misma plataforma, porque he mejorado notablemente mis historias de suspenso que tanto me gusta escribir. Me gané una laptop para seguir mis creaciones, me gané dos becas, una para estudiar diseño y la otra para estudiar y trabar como SEO. Mis hijos están bien, mi nieta está bella, ya cumplió dos años y el resto de la familia está bien. Todos gozamos de buena salud. No puedo pedir más, estoy contento y preparado para el 2025. Espero que a todos les haya ido muy bien como a mí.
¡Feliz Navidad!

Wow we are already in #day four....

For me 2024 i began with great hopes and plans, but i have not really achieve a lot.. I worked as a pastery chef in an eatery from March till Late september, i use my earning to purchase somethings for my service year, while i was also working on hive.

2024 has been filled with ups and downs for me, just like that i am in december and i'm feeling so bad about it, like i have not anything tangible...

So i made a scale of things of my life from last year december till this year, i have not achieved something tangible, i was depressed for almost a week, i was sad and lonely, i have come of age but nothing to show forth, I wish and pray 2025 will be different

I think this year I managed to reach my target on the block chain which is getting to 5k HP and 70rep. It's been a very busy time for me during these past 6 months but somehow I managed to reach my target but then I had to stop for awhile because of my work.

Next year I am trying to get to 10k HP finger cross and I want to help the community expand even more.

This 2024 was not as I expected, it was difficult... even so, I think I am in a good place, with things learned and looking ahead.

26 days left for this year to end. So, I’ll keep my hope fresh.

But if I must speak sincerely, 2024 wasn’t my year. I started the year with high hopes - hopes to sort out my school issues, tackle life’s hurdles, yada yada yada, and most importantly, escape the “rat race”. Yet, here I am, ending the year the same way I began it- with high hopes.

Maybe next year will be different.

My 2024 was refreshing, exciting and full of good nice surprices!

I've accomplished almost everything I wanted but there are a couple of things I need to finish before the end of the year. Like my ICF certification! I'll let you know how it goes!

How was your 2024 year? Have you accomplished what you set out to do?

In some ways 2024 was a fantastic year, in other ways it fell short. What made 2024 great is all the time spent with the family, new baby and abundant blessings. It fell short concerning business and keeping up with bills. My mission statement has been fulfilled for 2024, furthering the raising of godly offspring, being present and active with my family.

For 2024 I didn't have very big goals, My plans just were to succeed in school (didn't include finishing school in my 2024 plans as I finish in 2025) and coast on top of my crypto bag trying to grow SPS Stake and Hive power amount. I reached my SPS Stake goal of getting to 60k+ staked, but I didn't make my Hive power goal of 2500 as I burned out at the start of the year of writing blog posts.
I'm trying to get back into it slowly right now, because I don't want to burn myself out again.

This year helped me to grow in several aspects, it began with strong emotions that I had to handle in the best way, first one of my brothers had a motorcycle accident and fractured, I was in charge of the medical procedures so he could be operated and also to take care of his rest and recovery, two months later my other brother also had emergency surgery and I had to run out to solve everything. Thank God they recovered and came out well. In addition to these events I went to the hospital on two other occasions for my grandmother, who is very old, she is 93 years old and has given me several scares.

Although the year started off very strong for me, where I had a lot of stress, I dedicated time to do things that I had procrastinated for years, like joining a gym and learning to knit.

I would say that this year has been perfect because I have learned to manage my emotions, to be proactive and also to love myself as I love others.

Happy start to the advent calendar.

2024 was a busy year for me and I was busy with my final exam and research paper which cost me half of the year. I aimed to graduate and I already finished my graduation. Noting too much to regret.

nope been a slow year....

Of course I did! I got a new job and I'm on cloud nine with it. I had my university graduation and I got my degree golden title. I met new friends and they are very special to me, they have become in my other family. I had amazing vacations with fantastic friends. I met old friends again after a long time. My economy have increased a little and I got some prizes at work and in my studies 😃

2024 is one of my best years!! 🥳🥳

If be honest, it was a very tough year, but I made 70% of my bucket list. One of the biggest and unexpected achievements was meeting with my friend that I haven't seen for around 10 years. We live in different countries, and it is super hard to match time, country, city, place to meet...

!PIZZA
!LUV
!LOL

I made some mistakes this year. Still sorting the mess out.

C'est la vie!

Hoping for a brighter new year. !BBH !LOLZ

This year like any other in the past 8 years has been an upgrade of the one before, yet I surely haven't been able to accomplish what I wanted. I mostly blame being stuck with health issues (back pain, hernia) to pull me from my focus.

There has been improvement with some things picking up in the past weeks so I'm hopefull that 2025 starts a lot better.

One huge achievement that I take pride in from this year is something that I tried to pull off several times in the year before, without success and that's getting our registered partnership certificate here in Spain without using any translators to help me. I don't speak the language fluently yet and getting through any Spanish procedure is hard but this one, I completely managed to work through by myself and I was so proud when I received the phonecall that everything was in order. It means that I could start working for my boyfriend's business and it was a huge step in the right direction financially!

Up to next year, with even more and bigger achievements!

I achieved my very vague goals of being a good person and helping others while not putting my life happiness in jeopardy in any way.

2024 was a good year for me, really hope 2025 comes as good.

Great

My 2024 was a year of growth and learning! I accomplished several goals, like improving my skills in Splinterlands and engaging more with the community. While there were some challenges, I made progress and gained valuable experiences. Overall, it was a fulfilling year.

The truth is that it was a difficult year but more than anything in terms of health and not only for my sister but also for other family members who did not resist and have died, so it has been a complicated year and I have not managed to achieve the goals that I set for myself. start of 2024

Overall, it was good. I was able to achieve most of my goals but not all...

This year is not that bad because once there is life there is hope taking about achieving my goals this year 2024 the answer is no to me particular and I know that many people achieve their goals but I didn't achieve my I plan to enter school this year as a nurse but it didn't work out all due am a nurse but auxiliary nurse so this year I plan to go to school to get a better certificate but it didn't work as planned.
But am great full to God for keeping me alive to see another year and I believe that I must achieve my aims coming next year.
This year was hard to me and my family and in this year I didn't even have saves because you will first save your life before having saves but I still have hope in this fill days of remaining year.
Thank you all for your time and for this great opportunity.
