Believe me: if you get it right just once—when a major opportunity comes along—things will go smoothly from then on.
Because you have more room to make mistakes than other people. But if you make a mistake and don’t correct it right away, you’ll just reassure yourself and keep spiraling downward.
A person’s drive is a luxury.
None of us can be right 100% of the time. We all go through phases of doing foolish things.
For example, when I was in my twenties, I thought I’d earned enough to move back to my hometown, buy a house, and get my parents a villa.
What happened in the end? It all went down the drain. Most importantly, I’d willingly tied myself to the illusion of a peaceful life there.
I could only make a quick adjustment, let go of what wasn’t working, and go back to the city I’d always longed for to find the life I really wanted.
For example, even earlier on, I went all in on a public-chain coin, and it eventually got liquidated.
All I could do was adjust in time, get back into the right assets, and keep building.
I even got caught up in a rigged MLM scheme and lost several million. Later, I quickly adjusted, joined the other victims in seeking justice, fought back until the people responsible were on the run, rebuilt my risk-management system, and set up a bot operation.
Investing is life. Until you have the courage to go all in on an opportunity you can see coming and get it right, you’re still building up that courage.
And for everyone, that process is a long one. It’s something you have to feel and understand for yourself, by looking inward.
No one else can give it to you. You have to rely on yourself.
