There is no Easy Way

[BlackHatCoiner]

Our elders always said that the more you run after money, the more money will go away. If you go against it, then money will follow you.

I always disliked that phrase. It makes you justify being lazy. I honestly think it was just used as a coping mechanism. There is no person I know who got rich "by accident", "randomly" without manifesting being rich, planning ahead and doing the planned work consistently. I have only met poor people who advised me against going after money. I have heard a similar phrase being used for meeting women; "she will one day appear in your life", as if I'm in a privileged character in a fairy tale who gets enjoy the good ending.

No, these things don't come like manna from heaven, and if you are lucky enough to get them easily, they usually don't last long in your life.

For sure, there’s never a success without a story, there’s never a Glory without guts, and to every good thing one achieves today, a price was paid for it. I find it so disheartening when people see a successful business man or an investor and thinks he just achieved what he got just in a blink of an eye. Bringing it back home to bitcoin investment, those who invested in bitcoin years back let’s say 6-7 years ago are now reaping and enjoying the fruits of their investment or labor currently, it took them years to get to where they are now, they didn’t just fold their arms and expect bitcoin to fall from heaven, they worked for it and gradually build up their portfolio over time exercising patience, consistency and determination.

i know a few people who got rich by accident with shitcoins but they lost it all just as fast, easy come easy go is real, if you dont build the character while making the money you wont keep it for long

Everyone wants the shortcut in life nowadays.

The "hack." The "leak."

But the truth is brutal: there is no easy way.

There is no "painless way to freedom." There never was. Think about it.

There is no version of life where sovereignty spawned like an "oopsie" moment.

And I know people win the lottery, and shit. But, it's missing the point.

Success, wealth, freedom-- they don't last when you don't suffer for them.

You need to suffer. To test your limits. To build character.

Money is the extra. The real reward is the character-building process that comes through suffering.

Bitcoin exposes the "Easy Way."

The difficulty adjustment isn't merely a function that measures hashrate.

It's a function that shouts "YOU SHOULD TRY HARDER", once every 2016 blocks, louder each time.

It reminds everyone how good things come only after doing the Proof-of-Work.

So do the hard work.

The only work that actually works.

Wow amazing said, we always expect the best in the easiest way, the reality is that what is easily available, money, house, car, or wealth is not sustainable for a long time. What we achieve through long time or hard work, is sustainable and stays with us for a long time. It is not right to use shortcut to achieve success in our life, as a result, the long-term results are not good. Bitcoin long-term investment system, to achieve success buy Bitcoin, the right knowledge, long-term planning, prudent use of money, patiently waiting for the right time and lastly, confidence which is very important. Along with the right knowledge, hard work is very important to achieve success, and Bitcoin has taught us to understand these truth well.

I guess that saying is just trying to indicate you shouldn't become too avid and anxious about anything, because it will end causing more damage than good. The same is valid for a romantic relationship. Do your part, but also let things happen naturally, in balanced way, otherwise the woman or man will feel pressured, concluding she/he should go away.

The problem is that we want everything for today, in our own time, but reality doesn't happen on our time. There are many factors and influences involved. And when we don't accept that fact, we end frustrated and even more anxious for not achieving what we wished for the day, month or year.

I agree there is no easy way and we have to try our best to reach where we want, but it's also necessary to be aware there are things out of our control, so there is no problem if you hope and dream about that good ending hitting you at some point, when you least expect.

LOL this is the most relatable thing I've read all week. Trying to force a pump is like trying to force a relationship. It just gets weird and everyone leaves. Sometimes you just gotta log off and let the universe do its thing. The market doesn't care about your schedule.

the fairy tale analogy for meeting women is actually a perfect parallel to trading because if you look desperate the market will smell it and take your money just like a date will sense the pressure and bail, you have to put in the work to be a high value person or a high value trader first and then the opportunities start appearing when you least expect them, it sounds like some cope but it is really just about positioning yourself so that when luck hits you are actually ready to catch it, lol
