Regretting the Past Won’t Change the Future — Accumulation Will

[Vaculin]

I guess there's no wrong from regretting as long as you take proper action after so that you won't regret with the same reason of not going into blast with bitcoin when it was still very cheap. None of us expected that bitcoin will reach this far, so regretting alone will do no good, unless if we start taking the right move and immediately buy bitcoin for long term hodling.

We can stick with DCA, or lump sum buying depending on your preference. But DCA is mostly favored by majority.

Nothing wrong when we regret with the past that we didn't take action from the former prices of Bitcoin when it was still low.

We can stick with DCA, or lump sum buying depending on your preference. But DCA is mostly favored by majority.

It's easier to DCA but the advantage of lump sum is when you have the money ready for investing, you're not going to spend it with any other unnecessary things. Because that money goes straight to your portfolio and adds you more Bitcoin that you hold.

If you have missed investing in Bitcoin, you have already missed it, and you can't turn back the hands of time. So the best thing is to just forget it and move on and no there's no need to regret.

Not investing in Bitcoin in the past should now be motivation to accumulate Bitcoin well for all the time in the past when you were unable to do so. There are still opportunities for those who didn't invest in Bitcoin in the past to invest better even at this time. I see no reason why one should regret something they never understood, and it is possible for one to make mistakes for not understanding Bitcoin.

What missed was already missed and there is no time traveling machine for anyone to use for going back to the past and changing our actions for better decisions. What we can change is our knowledge, experience from past lessons, and make better decisions in the present, which will change our future.

We wasted opportunities in the past, did not invest in Bitcoin, it's okay as from now we can do it if we want. The bottom line is if we can invest money in Bitcoin from now, we will have advantage against many people who only start their investment in next Bitcoin halving in 2028 and even more far years in the future. If we can invest, and if we can hold our bitcoin a long time, we will get profit from our determinant practice with our money and bitcoin.

We can belong to many people who invest and get richer with Bitcoin.

Good advice, some persons are good at reflecting to their past without doing anything presently to correct that past, there is nothing anyone can do to bring back the past or to correct those things at that past just as you highlighted but we can actually make sure that those mistake we made in the past as it relates Bitcoin do not repeat again, and how do we do that, it is by making sure that we change our mindset, I mean the way we were thinking then that led us to making those mistakes we made earlier, regret does not have any positive effect on anything unless we back it with action that will help us to correct those things that we could not act upon earlier, Bitcoin is still here to stay, instead anyone to regret, is better for such person to start now and build gradually and consistently.

It’s true that many of us missed the train, but that doesn’t mean another chance is completely gone. By accumulating Bitcoin, we can fix our past mistake of thinking that holding Bitcoin is hard. Buying Bitcoin is something everyone can do, but holding it requires special discipline because we’re not just holding it for one year, but through multiple Bitcoin cycles. With evidence that many early adopters have already succeeded by holding Bitcoin it should increase our confidence to follow their path.

Of course remembering past problems will not change anything... just make it a memory that you once had a lot of bitcoins. As for regretting it, there is no point that they will not make progress to change the future.

The accumulation plan from now on is better even if you do it slowly with the DCA strategy... because this is the most common and simplest strategy to understand and easy to do.

They may not believe bitcoin will reach millions of dollars in the future... try if it is accumulated from now on then your fate will change because of the bitcoin that is owned from the accumulation.

People always flashback to their pasts  with regrets and disgust,instead of actually building something valuable and worthwhile after their experience.Initially, the idea of accumulating Bitcoin works best with patience in the picture.Because nobody starts off knowing it all, you're also open to learning from your past experiences and while you're fixing the situations.

Everyone creates mistakes and regret it after. But taking the time to keep on regretting and not making a solution after, that's a sign of immaturity and stupidity. You cannot move forward and create progress if your behavior remains like that.

However, some may regret but make a good move after. And going into bitcoin through DCA and consistent hodling is a wise and smart move. You don't have to make things complicated, move now and invest into bitcoin.

Sorry to say, but some people are just built to spend more time analyzing their problems and failures, than actually putting efforts to make things right. This isn't just about failing to buy Bitcoin syndrome, but it is something very common among those who aren't ready to move forward. I won't deny the fact that Bitcoin has really made a lot of improvement and has increased beyond's so many expectations, but come to think of it, there is still a long way to go as far as price is concerned.

And to be honest, finance might actually be the problem of a lot of people, but they are too busy reflecting on the missed opportunity,. instead of finding ways_{(if possible)}, to increase their income. Because there is no way you can have a decent accumulation when you even barely feed.

As the title already well describes, often we see people regret the past, why they haven't accumulated Bitcoin. Even they regret why they didn't buy around 2010. However, do you think regretting the past would change our future? Shouldn't we focus on accumulating Bitcoin now, so we won't have to regret it later in five or ten years? Later we won't have to look at the past if we can hold tight. Many of us met Bitcoin when it was cheap but haven't accumulated. Again we are on Bitcoin but still asking whether we should accumulate or not.

I believe today's accumulation will decide our financial future. It really depends on our current financial situation; based on accumulation, we have to accumulate and hold longer. So the amount and holding duration will decide the financial future. For me, the best strategy is DCA, so we can accumulate on every dump.

What are your thoughts?

People don't regret things to fix the future. And i haven't heard anyone saying that they think regret itself would change or fix anything.
Regret itself is actually pretty good tool for pushing people to learn from the past mistakes, and for some people in this case, it's literally the thriving force behind accumulating that bitcoin.

People who regret that they didn't buy in 2010 think it's too late now. But they would have thought it so back then as well. But i don't think that even they see their regret changing anything. It might become a motivational force though.

But good luck with your financial future. It seems like you know what you are doing.
