I believe we still have plenty things to learn here so I wanted to ask this question . We have heard on several occasions that HODLing is the best way for every bitcoin person to survive in the cryptocurrency market which I quite understand the idea but sometimes I used to wonder where the line is. Like at what point does holding stop being a strategy and starting becoming emotional attachment to a position? For example when someone keeps holding even when they know their main reason for buying is no longer there or when they begin to deliberately ignore the risks they are seeing because they are afriad of missing out ?
Winners or those who hold, will never be affected by Bitcoin's market conditions because the target holding limit we set is already linked to the price level we want to reach. This demonstrates a person's readiness to hold as sometimes people aren't strong enough to persevere under any circumstances. I've seen quite drastic asset decrease in the value of total assets at the current Bitcoin price and perhaps a significant percentage, but because I have a sell target at the planned price I don't care at current prices.

If people aren't ready to fully hold their assets, adjustments can be made, such as selling 30% of their holdings when the price reaches an all-time high and then buying back the profits when Bitcoin's price drops, as it has now. The important thing is not to panic as asset holders typically don't care about Bitcoin's price they're focused on achieving their overall growth targets.

You only can hold your bitcoin if you won't face with pressure of selling your bitcoin for money to use anytime. To have that ability, you must prepare your finance very well before your investment and during your investment time. You must have enough money to pay bills, to reserve for spending in emergency and if you can do it, the remaining things are only having strong belief in Bitcoin future, buy it, and store it safely in non custodial wallets for long term holding.

By planning to hold your bitcoin a long time, you will need to consider storing your bitcoin in best wallets (hardware wallets).
[List] Open Source Hardware Wallets
[GUIDE] How to buy a Hardware Wallet the right way.
You are right that it is important to be financially prepared to hold Bitcoin investments for the long term. Because first of all, you have to ensure that your basic needs are met. You should also create an emergency fund. Investing after ensuring the necessary financial arrangements in all aspects of life helps you to hold it in the long term with confidence. Also, as you said, it is definitely important that non-custodial quality should be stored safely. Also, it is important to follow the correct instructions after purchasing a hardware wallet to store your investments safely and risk-free.
