**Gradual Growth**
Hello beautiful people! Welcome back to my space! I am so excited to have you here, and I am also excited to let you all know that I just scored another win in pursuing my 2024 goals. 

Shortly before the end of 2023, I made a promise to myself that I  will be intentional on my growth on the Hive blockchain in 2024. My growth idea includes but is not limited to increasing my HP and my LP.

I have participated in all the HPUDs so far with the much I was able to do. Unfortunately, from January to March, I was not able to participate in LPUD. The reason being that I was not prepared...

**I Did It!**
Today is different, guys!
From the first day of April, I have been looking forward to today😊. In fact, I had wanted the day to come faster, lol.

Finally, I have been able to power up my Leo tokens after some back and forth. 

The thing is, I just had to make sure I had enough LEO tokens to be able to power up today. So, I had to get some #DOGE from my #EXODUS wallet to #Binance, convert to #HIVE, and transfer to my HIVE wallet. Then, I swapped HIVE for #HBD before using Keychain to get my LEO.

And of course, after getting the LEO tokens,  the next thing I did was to power up. See below 👇👇

**History Made**
So, there you have it! History has been made today for me. From now,  all I see is growth and progress. 

Taking the first step is usually the hardest, they say! Now that I have done the hardest, I am off to celebrate with a glass of warm lemon water 😂😂. You can join the party with whatever you have, it's on the house, hehehe!

Thank you for reading to the end. Did you Power up your LEO today? What was your experience like? Any advice or suggestions for beginners like me? I would love to read what you have to say in the comments.
