My wife decided to stay with me in #venezuela . However, she used to tell me that she had been scammed with $BTC because its price wasn’t quite reaching $1M. I tell her: You know it will take years. You know it will be difficult, boring, uncomfortable, and slow. That’s not the problem. The problem is that, deep down, you expect there to be a shortcut.

But there isn’t. It’s just continuing to do the same thing: work, accumulate, and don’t sell. It’s repetition. It’s the most stoic kind of silence. The part where nobody claps and, for a while, nothing happens. And the truth is that most people can’t stand that part. So they give up. Or they stagnate. Or they start over again and again just to avoid having to stay in it. Time will pass either way. So what did you think you were going to do in the meantime? Leave me? Change the plan for the nineteenth time?

This is the deal, my love: Either you suffer now during the process or you suffer later with regret. That’s it. Those are your options. One hurts. The other haunts you. So no, it won’t be fast. And no, it won’t be easy.

But it will be worth it. If you’re willing to pay for it upfront. And besides, did you have other plans?
In the end, that’s how life works. She hugged me.
