Don't be scared to start all-over

[Razmirraz]

Snip.

You're right, sometimes is not about starting all over again the question is will they be able to avoid that mistake they made? Because some folks don't learn from thier first mistake not even the second nor third maybe they might learn from the fift mistake, by then they must have loss more money. I'm not saying that it's not good to start all over again but first we need to ensure that we learned from our previous mistake should Incase it happen again we will know how to find our way out, although there's nothing we can do in this life without having challenges but there are ones we need to get used to.

Starting all-over is a good thing. But you have to do it with a clear head and what you've learned from experience. Don’t rush into anything new if you don’t even know why you failed the first time. If you skip that part, you’re just going to make the same mistakes again. Learning from past mistakes and losses is smart. The whole point is to not fall into the same trap twice. And to make sure your next steps actually lead to real success, not another crash. Before moving forward, ask yourself, What have I learned? What will I change? In this way, every new beginning is not merely a repetition, but an improvement upon the previous version of yourself.

The reality is that when it happens to you, you will understand what it means to loose everything and to be faced with the harsh reality of starting from the scratch. it is a difficult spot to be at but the issue is that if you don't take the pain and wake from it, who looses? does your excuse of being affected harshly from your loss make you any better?

As difficult as starting over again is, it will always be better than lamenting over the pain of the past and never being able to stay focused on the possibility of getting things right on rack just because you were able to start all over again. even when you start over again, there is no guarantee that you might not get hit down again but you have to decide that regardless of how many times you make an investment decision that brings you down, you are going to stand only to do better ever after.

Life is unpredictable, nobody is above getting serve with bad side of life but you know what's so funny about life? You will think it's easy to advice people about life until it happen to you that is when you are going to know that indeed life is not fair with people, it's not that easy to start over like the way people says it, it takes depression to be able to bounce back. Some people that are not strong minded hardly make it back because it's not easy like we say it.

There was a person I do know that we do consider as big bro, he lost most of his property into fire disaster, he lost his studio where he do crypto content creation and partnership with many projects for promotions, he lost plenty of his valuable. It took him good 5 years before he was able to bounce back again and it those years, it was not easy, he had to squat in a friend place and build back his place and now he is doing fine. If you ask him about the story, he will first sigh! He knows it was a tough one.

Yes, I completely agree with you. It is very nice to hear the story of starting again and becoming successful but no one is willing to know the truth behind this story or does anyone listen to it. When a person once reaches the last position and then from the top, he has to overcome many difficult places and reach the last level again. But during this time, a person is under a lot of mental pressure, this mental pressure makes a person much more harmful than all other pressures.

But yes, it takes much less time to succeed in starting again than before. When someone starts something for the first time, he has to learn a lot and due to taking many wrong decisions, he has to go back a lot. But when a person loses everything and starts again, he will never make the mistakes he made before and then he will be able to go back to the previous position in a much less time than before.

It must be tough for those who fell for the same tactics by these scammers that have been looking for newbies as their targets.

Staying off is the main solution that a victim can think of. But being resilient is what those trying to stay strong and believes that they've got a future staying invested with what they hold.

While that is not easy for the most who have been in that situation, kudos to OP and to everyone who did the same thing.

WAGMI.

Those scammers are getting smarter by the day and someone who hasn't had such experiences before or have no knowledge about the techniques which those scammers are using to defraud their victims could have fell easily for it. This days I don't easily trust any investment schemes I met online apart from a few of them that I am sure of that are legit because most of them are not original.

One little mistake could cost a person everything he has labour for all his life. Op was very smart not to have give up,he was so brave to have started all over again from the scratch which many in his situation may not. However, no one is above making mistakes, Op may have fall victim but giving up wouldn't have been the best decision too.

That's the best approach, we shouldn't trust any of these investment schemes especially if we have no knowledge about them.

The problem starts when we are driven by the thought that others are making money with something we don't even know yet but, we want also take part in it.

That's their technique, to attract and make people gullible that we're missing the opportunity and so we FOMO. And when we FOMO, we're emotional and don't decide properly.

Thus, we fall for these scams.

Learning from past mistakes and losses is smart. The whole point is to not fall into the same trap twice. And to make sure your next steps actually lead to real success, not another crash. Before moving forward, ask yourself, What have I learned? What will I change? In this way, every new beginning is not merely a repetition, but an improvement upon the previous version of yourself.

It is unfortunate that you have learned some hard lessons that has brought you to this level that you have to start again. Op sorry about that. It's important that you beginning to recover so fastly from the mess of what happened.  In as much as you are starting all over again just try as much as to be more careful this time around, not every investment deals that is looking more tempting is cool,  and there is no way you can be on every investment deals, atleast try looking them twice before giving it a trial so you wouldn't repeat same mistakes again. It's good to know you are back, keep on pushing and be watchful as well.  Good luck and be safe this time.

Yep, the ability to figure out those past mistakes they made is what matters because I have seen many newbies being scammed with one particular strategy, weeks later they still approach them with that same strategy and they still fall for it. It's just like what happened last week, a friend of mine chatted me up and was explaining how she ran into the hands of scammers, Funny enough that they have used that same strategy on her earlier, but due to lack of knowledge if not she would have find out that, that was the first strategy they used. So before a person should think of starting all over they need to be sure that they can't repeat that same mistake they made.

Scammers always change their approach and bring new tactics, which keep them having some good attraction for encouraging newbies to keep their same strategy. In a few cases, people with good minds and enough knowledge have a chance of escaping from these scams, but newbies who have never been able to check ground realities always keep scamming again and again. This hurts their confidence and also gives them financial setbacks.

In many cases, people are not able to survive and have the ability to fight back, trying to change their own strategy and also having good knowledge before entering into any project or scheme. Always give good results before any start, do all your paperwork, and check all your aspects to give better results and also allow for fewer changes of getting caught in traps.

Not all newbies but once controlled by greed and over ambitious mentality without knowing the implications of such continuous persistence for what you have know idea of.
To an extent many are controlled and made to fall for scams because they are carried away by greed and what they stand to gain without knowing those are strategies used in luring investors into there traps to be scammed, but excluding greed it will be very difficult for such to come to manifestation

I think almost everyone who gets into the crypto world has experienced losses, it's just that the losses vary some big, some small, and some even have to start from scratch. For me, that's not a failure to be constantly mourned but rather a valuable lesson for the future, and actually when we start over it doesn't mean starting from zero.

What we need to understand and instill in our minds is that past failures in trading are very valuable lessons because they give us real insights into mistakes, from strategy, risk management, emotions, to discipline, which can't be learned just from theory. We should treat every loss we experience as a learning cost, so this will prevent repeating the same mistakes in the future and eventually, over time your trading or investing will be much more focused and have a better chance of success.

I like the points you have made here. Failing is not a bad thing though but it is good that anyone who fails see's it as an opportunity to bounce back stronger and better than they were. The main thing there to note are the lesson's learnt during the time, mistakes which the person has made which resulted to them failing, what measures they have put up to make sure they don't have such an experience again. This would lead them to have a solid plan which would give them a guide on how to go about their new beginning. If they are determined, to standout, they could make things straight and face the reality of beating their fears to conquer it.

Right, this should be a lesson to everyone who thinks that anything they see online is genuine, as scammers won't get tired of luring people into giving them their money, so people should also keep their guard up by staying watchful and stay safe because that's the best way to avoid repeating the same mistake, that doesn't mean people shouldn't invest again but should make sure they are careful with any deal.

Your story is so inspiring I must confess thank you for sharing . I know how difficult it would had been but starting all over again is the best decision and so much encouraging to everyone scared of picking up themselves together again after losing a lot of people find it so hard to try again stories like this could be of great help and to anyone who feels like giving up

I feel the main reason why most people find it difficult and almost impossible to start afresh is too much disappointment. Indeed, such experiences can be really disappointing and frustrating, and maybe even enough to make anyone decide not to start all over again, but if one had regulated their expectations from the start, and made it rather realistic, then their disappointment wouldn’t really need or have to get to that point. It’s okay to be disappointed at some point, but if we are doing things right, disappointments would never make or restrict us from doing the right thing.

I support your statement about starting fresh. If you build a new house, the old house must be demolished first. A strong foundation must be established, so that it becomes stronger.

You have been on a crypto journey for a long time. You made wrong decisions in the pursuit of high profits, but if you stop there, it is not a solution. You have to start fresh and learn from your old mistakes. Learning from your mistakes is instructive for others and being careful that you keep the responsibility of your wealth only to yourself and do not be influenced by others.

Many people lose money in investment due to their own mistakes or due to the persuasion of others. If they realize that the decision was wrong, they will not easily repeat that mistake later. If someone can properly accept the lessons that they have learned in investment, it will become easier for them to make good decisions in the future.

its always how you will recover or what are willing to sacrifice to be able to get up, if you want to recover but you are still doing the same thing nothing will happen you will still  end up the same in the end, leaving everything behind and acceptance is very important, if you will keep thinking what happen before you will never be at peace and with that you will probably make mistakes again, start fresh and clean mind all the mistakes forget it, you already learn what to do so do it slowly and not by chasing.

Mistakes, losses are all a normal something especially as a beginner who is still new inside crypto. And that is why no one should just give up all hope just because of a few mistakes that was made. Mistakes has been made by lot of people in the past and present and anyone who makes mistakes today isn't the first time do so. And that is why no one should not even be afraid to make mistakes.

IMO, mistake is how people can learn, do good and become better, that is if the person can be able to recognize what went wrong and then learn form it. And the lesson from this mistake can improve how they behave and the decisions that they make afterwards. What is bad is when person keeps making the same mistakes over again without trying to understand what happened. They don't even out in any effort to avoid the mistakes.

In all we do , we should not think we are perfect. Always do your best to avoid mistakes that can cost us our coins, but when the mistake still happens, person should not become hopeless. Use that as an opportunity to learn so that the person can come back stronger.

Too much disappointment can make it harder for some people to start over again and this is not going to be an easy continuation especially when the trust has been shattered without pity. Many people like op had made the same mistakes in the past and their were people that their experience was not so severe while some heard a total loss of their crypto portfolios which made them unable to continue again due to the huge amount they had invested that might have put them into a big shit.

It is not easy for a crypto scammed victims to start all over again when they have lost their entire crypto funds to people they thought will never scam them.

I once lost everything to greed, anxiety and uncertainty. My crypto journey began sometime around 2020, back then I was very optimistic and ready to jump into any investment opportunity that comes my way. In 2021 I got my first surprise.

What happened was i entertained a complete stranger on my telegram channel. The fellow first got me to trust her and in the process introduced me to a scheme. The tone of assurance was so strong that I fell for it.

Funny enough the tried to get my full trust by giving me rewards every day for staking my coin on their mining platform. And after two weeks I woke up to see my wallet has been cleared. Both the rewards and my personal coin all gone

It drained me and kept me low for quite a long period. I didn't know where to start from and I was even confused on how to explain this to someone else. It took me a long time to put myself back together.

Then in 2024 I tried building back. It wasn't easy from the start but I kept up with consistency. Although I don't have as much as I had back in 2020 but I am glad I am able to stay committed no matter how small the growth seems.

My point here is starting all-over is better than staying off completely. It's better to have slow growth than taking no action at all

It is very easy to start from nothing and grow, than to start with good funds and loss them, taking a fresh start requires a grate deal of consistency and believe on the process that it will get better again. I had a similar experience, but not based on being scammed, rather when the market entered it's first recognised bearish market by 2018, I didn't really have the full understanding that things will settle down again, and I was in a very unfriendly situation that requires action, health challenges and the needs of meeting up with feeding was a necessity, entering into the forum or reading articles or posts was difficult, coupled with not being able to make internet subscription. During this whole situation, I had the believe I will return, but it took me longer than I expected.

Having the mindset to continue is the winning action, lie situation will always hit, but the action one takes is what will determine if you'd win or lose.

This is a point were so many people end up committing suicide because they can stand to bear the shame of starting allover again and why so people still gather the courage of starting allover again, for like example, during my days of university i have witnessed so many students that after the semester examination, so many students were ask to repeat there year one and some of the students was quickly waff from the university entirely because of their cut off point could not meet up the school Cumulative Grade Point Average, so many students was courage of repeating allover again and why some feel so frustrated they couldn't start allover again, i know that in life that it hot starting allover again but we should never accept our defeat because every disappointment is a blessing, so an investor or out here, given up yourself is never an option to agree on, keep pushing for a better days ahead.

If the idea of ​​starting over is a source of anxiety, many people will not start over and will remain neutral. I have seen many gamblers who have not gambled for fear of losing more. But if the subject of trading or investing comes up, they will not be able to give it up easily because there is a risky thriller as well as the potential for high profits. No matter how painful the trading experience is, most traders start over after losing a lot of money and the same applies to investing. It is not easy to revive hope that has ended in disappointment, but those who can do this difficult task and learn from their previous experiences are more likely to succeed.

I totally understand how painful things can get and probably escalate because the system failed. I do respect those of us that can have the courage to bounce back because not everyone after putting in work and it all collapse, means they can bounce back? Most people will give up because they have seen no reason to thrive again and this alone will make one fall into depression. I understand the whole scenario. Failure is not good but look at it from the brighter side, it's an opportunity to try again, build, reset, relearn and  bounce back stronger than the first time.

Learning from past mistakes and losses is smart. The whole point is to not fall into the same trap twice. And to make sure your next steps actually lead to real success, not another crash. Before moving forward, ask yourself, What have I learned? What will I change? In this way, every new beginning is not merely a repetition, but an improvement upon the previous version of yourself.

It is unfortunate that you have learned some hard lessons that has brought you to this level that you have to start again. Op sorry about that. It's important that you beginning to recover so fastly from the mess of what happened.  In as much as you are starting all over again just try as much as to be more careful this time around, not every investment deals that is looking more tempting is cool,  and there is no way you can be on every investment deals, atleast try looking them twice before giving it a trial so you wouldn't repeat same mistakes again. It's good to know you are back, keep on pushing and be watchful as well.  Good luck and be safe this time.

Loses a times might not be as a result of being careless but could be lack of experience to guide the policy that helps improves the business or projects at hand. I wonder how Op would feel when he lost all he has aquires over the years, it so painful losing it like that to a random hands never to see again.
Carefulness is the key to recover and learning from mistakes.
