Introduction
Welcome to the Steemit #homesteadingchallenge! The goal of this challenge is to unite the Steemit homesteading community with an invigorating contest every few weeks!
The #homesteadingchallenge will require a variety of different tasks and requests from anyone who wishes to participate. Examples of tasks include taking a photo of your livestock, answering a prompt question regarding homesteading, etc. Each challenge will have a different goal / theme so please read the announcement carefully.
What’s in it for you?
I plan to transfer ALL of the SBD reward the announcement articles earn to the winner of each challenge! The more support from each of you, the bigger the potential reward! One winner will be chosen for each challenge.

Steemit HomesteadingChallenge #7
Share a homestead resolution for 2018!
We’ve already done a challenge that shared our homesteading “bucket list” - a list of dreams and goals that may or may not happen at some point in the future - but this one is a little more specific! Please share a project on your homestead that you are planning to complete in 2018!
The size and scale of the project does not matter. It can even be a project you have already started and plan on completing within the year. It must have a specific point at which you can say it is “complete” however - follow the S.M.A.R.T goal suggestions and make sure it is “measurable.” For example, instead of saying “I want to earn more money on the homestead this year” you should say “I want to earn X amount on the homestead by X date.”
Share why you are pursuing the project you write about and what you hope it will accomplish/ add to your homestead.
Photos or diagrams/blueprints are also appreciated (if applicable)! They are not necessary to win but they will help readers gain a better understanding of your vision.
Of course, most projects will not be completed by the contest deadline next week so I cannot choose a winner based on the effort put forth into the project/ the actual accomplishment of said project. But I will be following along with updates provided and I hope to see a grand reveal of your finished project(s) by the end of 2018! I mean, the whole point in making a resolution is attempting to keep it!
It would be greatly appreciated if the winner would use the contest reward towards completing their resolution project… though it is your reward to do with as you please!
You have ONE WEEK to write your submission for this challenge - please post it by 11:00 PM (CDT) [UTC offset: UTC -5] on Sunday, January 7, 2018!
Don’t forget to include the #homesteadingchallenge tag in your article! Link your submission in this article’s comments below and/or tag me (@kiaraantonoviche) in the comments of your article! This is how I will find the submissions! I will also try to comment on each submission to let you know that I have seen it and that it has been entered into the running!
Winner will be chosen the following day - Monday, January 8, 2018 - and winnings will be paid immediately following this announcement post’s payout. An article announcing the winner with proof of the reward payment will be posted following the reward dispersement.
I’ll try my best to make this challenge (and future challenges) fun, inspirational, and most of all… worthy of your time!
Good luck and Happy New Year!
