Must admit, todays been hard

Bitcoin pulling back like this right now wasn’t part of the script

HODLing is not easy

Doubt creeps in

- Will it rise again?

- Was I wrong to make those financial commitments?

- Do I need to start hunting for a job?

35% draw down on your largest asset allocation is going to effect anyone

Spending habits will have to change

Plans altered

I was stressed, so I did a 10 minute power meditation, which I love

Pop the alarm on

See where it takes you

The message I got: hold steady, don’t get shaken out, observe the fear, don’t ignore the doubt, but recognise them as emotions, the fundamentals are still true, digital scarcity is a once-in-a-generation discovery

When doing new things, the playing field isn’t always clear

It’s why I like “time in the market is more valuable than timing the market”

If you’re setup to weather the storm, not over-exposed to expenses, or debt-laden, then it’s an easier process

What a ride

A constant process of iteration

Tomorrow I will do better

We go again

💪🏻

You're not alone.

When assets are sound and well secured, but price is shaky, while time preference is low, focus on revenue.

What are your 3 favourite revenue opportunities right now?

My own focus is helping people get more bitcoin. Helping people not lose their bitcoin. And helping people migrate equity from real estate to bitcoin. Which in turn is going to help people that don’t own a house end up owning a house. If I’m not doing those things I’m enjoying my family, and there’s been a hell of a lot of work to do this year, so I have seen my family marginally less than last year.

Everyone’s focus and nearby opportunities are different though. What are your immediate and peripheral opportunities? Is there revenue you’ve already seen where that value proposition could be replicated?

When you’re throwing hooks in a pond, you know how big of a fish you can catch, and even though it’s quick and easy, it doesn’t scale. When you cast your line in the ocean, the lessons of the great fishermen are now able to be applied but it’s new and hard.

Somewhere you have a unique value proposition for those around you, your community, your city, your state, your country, the digital globe. Is there revenue if you leaned into it? Where does what you enjoy doing overlap with what someone else doesn’t, but needs to do for their financial well-being, but they don’t want to, don’t have time to, or don’t know how to.

Show the answers to these questions and further exploration into Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, and Grok. Weigh their answers against one another, combine the good parts of their answers, make them do the work for you and refine to a todo list, then ask them how they can help you accomplish whatever it is they pressed toward. Make them think hard, make them get creative. Make them do their research and not just BS you. Make them explore the edge case.

Odds are they’re not going to give you the answer. Odds are they’re little retarded minions that you can use to explore for the answer yourself, but they can cover more ground than you. They can do more research than you. They can cite more results than you. They can gather more data than you. They can explore what tools may work best.

They are not the answer. But they can add to the momentum once you use them as soundboards to arrive at the answer for your situation and goals. You’re still the strategic source, but they can be a heck of a vibrant team of executive assistants.

You got the long answer because I brain dumped while walking the dog. Enjoy! Hope it sparks an idea!

Brilliant. And very much how I would approach it as well

The real estate > Bitcoin intersection is very interesting

I think my unique angle is death, inheritance, having experienced that

Let’s see

Will update as I go

May have a collaboration opportunity.

Free to talk? DM availability or email me. Would love to walk you through something I have cooking to see if you have interest.

Always open to chat. Have sent DM

Opposite reaction once you’ve fully grasped that Bitcoin is the best money and it will win.

It’s the best chance that I see to get the world back on the right track away from FIAT debt slavery.

My reaction has been okay what do I need to do to buy even more during this flash crash.

Don’t be afraid. Be willing to ride this thing to zero..

I’d stay humble, stack sats, and reset any short term expectations to zero and focus on only growing your SATs count, not USD price.

Buy in the dip, bitcoin is long term, it will recover, I can feel it in my water.
