If you really want to make it you have to live and breathe finance. There’s no shortcut, or alternative.
Every second of your waking day should be mostly dedicated to learning about assets or thinking about markets.
Wild how much of a mental rollercoaster this trading shit can take you on and how much it bleeds into ur real life. Swinging between pure euphoria to legitimate depression a week later & it rubbing off onto ppl around me. How the fuck do I solve this
life is about loss.
not in a sad or pessimistic way. in a beautiful way.
as life moves forward, you lose things. you lose friends, loved ones, relationships, your parents, your youth, your hair, your teeth, your health, your possessions, your strength, your memories. and eventually, you lose your life.
but loss is what gives everything meaning.
if you knew you could keep something forever, would you ever appreciate it? would a moment feel as precious if it could never end?
even life itself is precious because it is temporary. the fact that one day it will end is precisely what makes every day worth living.
so remember, everything you have today, you will eventually lose.
not as something to fear, but as a reason to cherish it while you have it.
cherish your friends. your family. your health. your time. your experiences. every form of wealth you’ve been blessed with.
because one day, they will be gone.
and that isn’t a tragedy.
that’s what makes having them now so beautiful.
