FOMO is built into our human nature from the moment we're kids and want another kid's toy. It was meant to help us live cohesively, learn from one another, and keep us from falling behind.

BUT social media accentuated this natural human behavior. 👇🧵

The amount of FOMO I feel literally just logged into Twitter is insane.

I've made great personal progress in the past 4 months.

Yet someone on my TL made 10x my progress in 2 months.

Everyone takes their own time. Remember that the next time you see a success story.

Discord is down. Take this time to exercise, grab a glass of water, or take a nap. ❤️

@SuniForSol True, we can only promote positive changes in the NFT space. It's up to the community as a whole to be the deciding factor though.

This may be controversial, BUT -

Is there really a 100% mentally-healthy way to invest in NFTs successfully? 🤔

Unless you're in the top 1-2% - I don't think so honestly.

Here's why.👇

@DamagedYouthNFT @BaccoDY Love the art my friends. ❤️

- We all have an unstable and possibly excessive appetite for risk.

- NFTs 'reward' users for constantly being online, and active on discord/twitter. This 'user retention' is a major cause for MH issues on social media.

- Finances are involved which elevates emotions.

This was evaluated and studied using the 'Stroop Color and Word test' and compared to other physical activities. Martial Arts is one of the only activities that helps with executive function which is most beneficial for cognitive performance. 🧠

[◎ Cranium Club ◎ @TheCraniumClub]

Here's the science-y explanation: Martial Arts improves cognitive functions of the brain. 🥋

Memory, ability to focus, how fast information Is processed and how executive functions are handled are all areas of improvement through learning complex activities such as martial arts.

You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you. 🧠

[Solana Sensei @SolanaSensei]

Be bullish on LIFE, not just SOLANA.

Being BULLISH on life means knowing GREAT things are coming your way.

This intuitive bullishness becomes reflected in ALL aspects of your LIFE.

This includes happiness, relationships, your finances, and EVERYTHING else.

In many ways, the best thing you can do for your brain is to spend time with healthy people. I often say the fastest way to get healthy is to find the healthiest person you can stand and then spend as much time around him or her as possible.

If you're someone who's set specific goals at the beginning of the year, how are they coming along? 🏆

@im_joe_kim That’s a massive improvement. That feeling of Zen must be a huge relief compared to what you’ve felt the first time.

“Learn by doing” as John Dewey says. We must interact with our environments, and fail if it comes to that point, in order to adapt and learn.

Our DMs are always open if you need to let off some steam. Keep in mind, we're all in this together and we've all experienced a loss.

Best of luck to all of you. ❤️

[◎ Cranium Club ◎ @TheCraniumClub]

Substantial financial loss is something that everyone who makes an investment is likely to experience.

In crypto, NFTs, and web3, it is even more prevalent.

This thread is inspired by @0xFrisk - Let's talk about how to cope with financial loss. 🧵👇

7/ Seek PROFESSIONAL help. 👀

We might think we can solve all of our financial problems with our heads, but you may need to talk to someone about the emotions involved.

Therapists and coaches can help create an actionable, healthy plan to get you back on your feet.
