In 2021, right after the COVID lockdowns, life was finally starting to feel normal again. Universities reopened, everyone was outside again, and honestly… I was more focused on surviving uni life than anything else. Assignments, classes, seminars, simulation, trying to figure life out. I didn’t even know what crypto really was back then.

One night at my students' lodge, a friend kept talking to me about this weird NFT project called Bored Ape Yacht Club. I remember laughing when he showed me the JPEGs. I genuinely thought the whole thing made no sense. But he kept saying, “bro, people are building real communities around this stuff.”

At the time, BAYC was still early. Mint was cheap, and nobody around me was talking about NFTs yet. But instead of paying attention, I brushed it off. I told myself, “I’ll look into it later.”

Later never came.

A few months passed and suddenly BAYC was everywhere. Celebrities, millions of dollars, life-changing money. People who got in early completely changed their lives and I remember sitting there thinking; damn… I actually saw this early.

The opportunity came; I just wasn’t mentally prepared for it.

That moment changed the way I look at life forever because most opportunities don’t arrive looking obvious. Sometimes they show up disguised as something confusing, risky or even stupid. Most people don’t fail because opportunity never came. They fail because they were distracted, comfortable or unprepared when it did.

That experience is what pushed me into crypto full time. And ever since then, whenever life opens a door for me… I move with intention.

And tbh, a part of me still wants to become a member of that club someday.

Not because of the hype or status anymore… but because BAYC represents the moment that changed my entire perspective on opportunity.

And deep down, I know someday I’ll make it there.

in my almost 2 years on CT, i've learned that the biggest winners aren't usually the smartest

they're the most patient

they find conviction, ignore the noise and survive the boredom

while others are constantly rotating from one narrative to the next, they stay the course

the market has a funny way of rewarding people who can sit still

the cheat code is simple... bee disciplined

Don't sell your good tokens for the dogshit.

One of the worst habits in crypto is selling what's actually running to ape into something that isn't.

I've done it before, and it felt stupid every single time.

You convince yourself the underperformer is "due for a run", and the winner has "already pumped," so you rotate.

Then you watch your old bag keep going while the new one bleeds for another 3 months.

Rotate carefully, and stop letting the timeline convince you that their bags are going higher than yours.

@shivst3r people sell strenghth to buy hope. isnt that wearisome??

[S0LiD🐝✳️ @solidecactus]

a lot of people think failure is scary... it's not

failure teaches., builds character, and makes you stronger

what's actually scary is never trying

because you never get the lesson, you only get the regret

the first step is admitting it

the second is learning and improving
