It's so true.
I've not indulged many desires since discovering Bitcoin. The ones I have indulged in have cost me far too many sats for the fleeting joy they offered.
The funny thing I've noticed is that the desires that take root tend to manifest in ways I didn't initially anticipate. They just sort of manifest indirectly, almost coincidentally.
Opportunities arise that are in alignment with those deep desires & I recognise them as such. I can take action on the opportunity quickly & not let it slip away. At other times the cost still feels too great still & I have to exercise patience by letting the opportunity go by.
Having the capacity to act & not acting, is an interesting circumstance in itself.
