Getting started is hard, as most likely you set very high expectations and change doesn't happen overnight. Consistency is key, slow and steady wins the race, there is no shortcut ✌️

Absolutely.
My journey is a bit embarrassing as I looked into it then freaked when I saw the Bitcoin client was going to fill my hard drive (was too dumb to figure out pruned nodes).
Did some shitcoinery alongside Bitcoin and my aha moment was when I first took self custody from an exchange.
I read “Mastering Bitcoin” and “Bitcoin standard” and it all started coming together for me.
I’m still a dumb fuck but a dumb fuck with a Bitcoin and lightning node and a much lower time preference.
