I’d analogize that benefit from physiological stress to the #bitcoin halvening.
When the supply of bitcoin cuts in half, it creates stress — at first this stress is “costly” and hard to endure because there’s less money in circulation… people won’t have as much liquidity to invest with… but eventually this stress causes the purchasing power of each coin to rise.
We trade stress in the short-term for growth in the long-term, rather than indulging now & paying the consequences later.
