BITCOIN #44: GO WAKE UP YOUR LUCK

Life has a lot in common with Bitcoin.  On what slender threads do life and fortune hang............on the eve of spot trading the ETF?  This is the last Bitcoin post in the series that began in 2020.

In the 1950s, the United States began asserting itself as an economic superpower, and Japan was just beginning its rebuild after the war.  In many ways, tomorrow will be the 1950s again, but for Americans invested in UST, USD, and fiat instruments, it might be the morning before the Enola Gay took flight on August 6, 1945.

Great people achieve great things not by doing what others tell them. They don't believe in luck. They believe in themselves, and they truly want their dreams to materialize. They are consumed by their vision for the future.

A night like tonight, I wonder if my tribe listened to my admonitions in July of 2020 to go all in on Bitcoin.  Tonight, I wonder what tomorrow might look like for some of them when they realize what they have done for themselves.

This is why we have the Division Bell to listen to tonight.  Those who listened and those who didn't will be in different moods.

For the trusting, you'll receive simpler life pleasures, with fewer worries and a deeper felicity.

Tomorrow, many will learn the time machine of value cuts in two ways.  Time can be a great engraver or eraser of value, depending on how we choose.

Many here have had the bad fortune of seeing our lives fall apart so slowly that they barely noticed it.  Tomorrow might give them a new and last chance to stop that bleeding by permanently getting them to the sun to reverse their slow decline.

You've heard me say many times you are the CEO of you........ you actually timestamp 99% of what centralized thinkers call luck.  It is fully within your control. You can create your own fortune on purpose. It’s entirely up to you.

You become what you think; that is how you fall into opportunities that forever change your fortunes.  The risk-averse call it luck, the wise call it an opportunity.  The decentralized thinker recognizes opportunities early, they see it in their mind before reality give us the possibilities, and they know by doing things a little bit different from others, and taking risks, they can engineer something from nothing by thinking better now than they did before.

I hope my tribe realizes why they came here.  You can plant the seed of luck in your life on purpose by investing in deliberate actions that will get you closer to your ultimate goal in life.  No matter why you are here.

If you missed this opportunity, keep Talking to yourself to get to this level of thinking.  Learn from it.  I'm wondering tonight where they will all go from here.

Here’s the simple lesson on the eve of ETF trading:  Go back and re-read all those Patreon blogs on Bitcoin and tell what you got and what you missed.  

Tonight's lesson on time:  you will not build the life you want without a fair amount of consistent proof of work.

The most important currency there is, is our attention.

Enjoy whatever you've chosen tomorrow. 

SUMMARY

Why do we defer to expert opinion? When "experts" are wrong, they’re rarely held accountable, and they rarely admit it, either. They insist that they were just off on timing, blindsided by an improbable event, or almost right or wrong for the right reasons. 

An abundance in life is also decentralized.  Having more and desiring less leads you home.

They have the same repertoire of self-justifications that everyone has and are no more inclined than anyone else to revise their beliefs about how the world works or ought to work just because they made a mistake.  Growth can happen in a myriad of ways; now go wake up your luck in your way!
