The Couch of Regret

[BlackHatCoiner]

It always starts the same way.

You tell yourself, "I'll buy bitcoin later."

But later never comes.

Only the couch does.

The couch of regret.

You sit there scrolling through timelines full of people you dislike
distracting you with endless, meaningless content of their lives,
while you're watching season 11 of a show you stopped liking five years ago.

Your phone buzzes.

It's not opportunity.

It's a Revolut payment reminding you that you rent everything you touch.

You were told comfort is success.

You were lied.

You're not resting. You're decaying quietly.

That couch is your prison cell disguised as "modern comfort."

It's where you trade potential for pleasure.

You think you're "relaxing."

You're decomposing in 4K.

Every Netflix episode is another block of life mined by someone else.

Bitcoin doesn't wait for you to figure it out.

It doesn't care about your mood.

It doesn't pause when you're scared.

Math don't wait.

While you're waiting for "the right time",
it's proving there never was one.

Buy bitcoin.

Not later. Not when you have an "easier schedule."

BUY IT NOW.

[m2017]

It always starts the same way.

You tell yourself, "I'll buy bitcoin later."

I would add "when the price drops".

While you're waiting for "the right time",
it's proving there never was one.

The right time to buy bitcoin is "right here, right now", the moment you learned about bitcoin and decided to buy. This is the moment to buy, without waiting for some mythical perfect moment. Otherwise, there's a risk that it will never arrive due to constant procrastination and doubts. Just do it and breathe a sigh of accomplishment. That's the best thing anyone can do.

[ZeroVinsonN]

Procrastination will kill your will to buy bitcoin, and this isn't just an opinion as we have all seen people fail in their endeavours because they chose to procrastinate on very important issues, you will keep telling yourself that you will buy later until you will no longer have the time to buy and by then you will look back in regret and wish you'd never procrastinated and had just bought when you had the chance to do so earlier on, bitcoin will always be here but that doesn't mean that bitcoin is waiting for anyone because it's not if you do not buy now you will be left behind.

Buying Bitcoin is like planting Trees

"The best time to plant a Tree was 20 years ago, the second best time to plant a Tree is now!"

"The best time to buy Bitcoin was 15 years ago, the second best time to Buy Bitcoin is now!"

I suppose in general terms the thread is about procrastination which has negative affects on
ones mind and body.

Everything which is made to make our lives comfortable and convenient is really designed to
trap us into wanting more which ultimately hurts our finances.

[Z-tight]

A lot of time users make topics complaining about how they should or could have bought BTC a decade or so ago, but they didn't. It is funny because that same person had five years ago to buy, or 3, or even last year. So why complaining when the fault is of your inaction.

An all time high of ~ $126k is wonderful and not many people imagined it. But the good thing is how high BTC could be in another five or ten years and even more. So if you think you have missed out because you didn't buy before $126k, you'd also still be sitting on the 'couch' regretting when BTC is $500k or even more.

You buy Bitcoin,

Your descendants will remember you,

They will wear the crown of knowledge

Because you gave them financial security,

You protected their wealth from inflation.

You sow the seeds of knowledge,,
It will return as love.

BUY IT NOW.

people might be waiting for the right time but the right time to buy bitcoin is now when you can afford it and when it is not 10x more expensive than it is now if they wait they will only regret it because they will think of the time they had the opportunity to buy but didnt

I usually say this anyone looking for a better opportunity to actually buy bitcoin is never ready to buy bitcoin and this are facts, you will someone that actually saying they are waiting for the dip to buy bitcoin but when opportunities like the current market conditions presents its self you will see things like they are now seeing bitcoin going more further down, the thing is even if bitcoin gets to $20k from this price there will still be lots of people that would not buy and still be waiting for better entries than that,

I usually say there is no need timing the market when the target is to hodl for a very long time because no matter how the market moves it usually goes up and you will always be in profit after a very long time, yes you can actually add more or aggressively increase your DCA plans during the market bearish periods but you don’t wait for dips to buy

Ignorance is really a problem when it comes to learning.
Most people don't know and don't care to know but definitely not with Bitcoin.
It's the next generation and a means for generational wealth.
The earlier people realize this, they would definitely liberate not just their selves but their future generations as well.
The time is never late, the time is always now.

[Emjay24]

It always starts the same way.

You tell yourself, "I'll buy bitcoin later."

When you started lying to yourself.

But later never comes.

That's the reality, you think buying Bitcoin now is wasting money, but when compared to time wasted waiting you see you lost more in time than you should've in money and mind you Bitcoin is a long-term journey to success which when you buy now in you can never be wrong on the long-run.

You were told comfort is success.

Again you patronized their lies which they told to enrich themselves with your viewership.

You're not resting. You're decaying quietly.

That couch is your prison cell disguised as "modern comfort."

It's where you trade potential for pleasure.

You think you're "relaxing."

You're decomposing in 4K.

That's how they rest away their youths and at Old age they sit on the couch of regret, regretting their bad choices on choosing resting over hardwork and choosing saving Fiat  over investing in Bitcoin.

Buying Bitcoin is like planting Trees

This concept many people may not understand it, if people who come around bitcoin and go back under that bitcoin is like plant most people who come and go, including people who earn free bitcoin will not use their bitcoin immediately they earn..

Sincerely Buying Bitcoin is likely planting a Tree, a tree you plant in your vineyard have multiple purpose in your yard, At first, it will bear fruit and you will benefit from the fruit, it will be a shade in your yard for relaxing and it's also economical via the wood anytime you cut off the tree,
Bitcoin bears fruit if you hold your Bitcoin.

[Japinat]

There is no perfect timing for bitcoin, so one should have taken an entry years go, months ago, or even start now, because what matters actually is never the amount of bitcoin you have owned, but the fact that you have already started to have your own bitcoin.

Procrastination has never a room for bitcoin, otherwise you are waiting for nothing, while others are already enjoying the fruits of their labor. So don't be a person who never sees the value of bitcoin, learn to prioritize bitcoin now especially if you miss the opportunity to invest in bitcoin 10 or 5 years ago.

[Churchillvv]

Every day is a new chance to try again which is why we have it, I’m sure a lot of people do not have this chance to buy one more time, but here we are we have all it takes to buy more bitcoin.  

If your aren’t supposed to buy bitcoin today you wouldn’t have been give the opportunity to see today, so why not use the second chance to the fullest.

It only ends in regret if after reading all this and you don’t still take the chance to take a piece of bitcoin to yourself custody.

[Stalker22]

I know that "Couch of Regret" all too well.  For me, it wasnt Netflix, it was getting stuck researching projects I never started.  I kept thinking, Ill do it when I have time.  But that day never arrived.

I figured out that the best time to do stuff is now, even if its small task.  It kills the regret.  Just get it done.  Ill do it later is a killer lie.

Every Netflix episode is another block of life mined by someone else.

This word hits so hard that it’s suppose to give another thought to one’s life. Wallowing away time wasting your little data on movies when you’re not part of the financial revolution is actually sad.

Procrastination is a killer of many dreams if you allow it settle within you, it’ll only get worse and you won’t get to do anything good in your life.

Thinking about taking risks, you should know that you’re already procrastinating and if you keep up with that, you’ll only wake up in your old age and see that you’ve wasted your 70 years plus on earth without achieving anything.

You chained yourself to slavery all your lifetime just because you were procrastinating not to take a single risk that would have changed your whole life and that of your generation.

[Marykeller]

Procrastination is the killer of opportunities. Anyone that do away with it, will expect several positive outcomes of the things they do. Living by it, numerous opportunities will be missed.

Bitcoin investment requires a strong will to invest or continue to invest in it through DCA. That attitude alone doesn't require procrastination because it can deny you a good buying opportunity. That makes it better to invest at that time you have the spare money because leaving that for another time to invest in Bitcoin, something else may take out the money or you would get to see a good buying opportunity at that time you missed investing

[macson]

When Bitcoin was at $20k, he waited because he saw it wasn't the right time to buy.

When Bitcoin was at $50k, he waited because he saw that the Fed guy might release negative news that could cause Bitcoin to drop, and he would buy at that time.

When Bitcoin was at $70k, he waited because he saw that his finances weren't sufficient and he still had many bills to pay.

When Bitcoin was at $100k, he told his friend, "I've known about Bitcoin since it was 20,000, and I regret not buying sooner."

In conclusion, the longer you wait to buy, the more excuses you'll make to delay buying, and ultimately the opportunity will pass you by, and you'll regret it.

The best thing is to buy now.

[laspol65]

Like a fruit tree, it will give you fruit all its life, and if you cut it down (kill it), it will give you its body for your benefit (fuel source and furniture making). Just like Bitcoin, if you can invest in Bitcoin in the long term, if you had bought it in the past (10 to 15 years ago), then Bitcoin would have given you benefits till today and as long as you hold Bitcoin, your Bitcoin will give you benefits every day.
So there is still enough opportunity to buy Bitcoin, those who are deprived of buying Bitcoin must take the risk at present and hold Bitcoin for a long time according to the DCA method, then you will definitely be successful, which will continue to yield fruits like a tree.

BUY IT NOW.

The funny thing is that most people always say "oh I wish I would have bought that at such and such price" but when the time comes and it actually gets to that price they dont buy and still just let the opportunity slip. Dont be that guy! Make shit happen,  be the man! Get it together mfer!!!

[Z390]

Procrastination, I hate it with passion.

I don't like hearing that I will do something later, there is no later on my book because talking from my past history I have always failed to make any difference when I postpone what I desired to do until its already too late.
A step is all it takes, and now or its never going to happen, I trust myself so much that if I really want to make something happen I need to firstly take the step, that's it, at that point there is no more turning back.
Its always too late they all say now, because the price of Bitcoin is in six figures, lack of understanding simple mathematics could have cleared the air, in my own country alone we are 230 million in number and Bitcoin is only 21 million.
Most people get what they deserved when their lives turned miserable, it is their own fault, not the economy, not the government, not the rulers.

[ColdLava40]

The couch of regret is the most expensive furniture you'll ever own. The truth is uncomfortable. Comfort is the enemy of success.

While some take action, others are there watching the numbers go up and down, in hopes of a better chances. You would never get the best chance if you don't take that bold step now.
