Topic: ever had a huge opportunity stare you in the face (Read 381 times)

but you missed it because it wasn't perfect enough?

one of the biggest mistakes I made in life was not buying as much Bitcoin as I could in 2011 when I found out about it. I was looking at all the reasons why it would fail. now I realize an opportunity was starting me in the face and I completely avoided it. of course, I stayed focused on the movement and yet another opportunity blew me by, and that was pre-ordering an Avalon Asic. I just completely missed it.

I don't entirely blame myself. I have an unfortunate brain chemistry which causes me to struggle to maintain focus on anything. It's like having a virus on your computer, you cannot accomplish SHIT, plus I simultaneously do not want help from anyone, I want to do it all on my own. but I can't help but feel angry at myself for blowing $15k on stupid penny stocks in 2012 when I could have invested in ASICMINER for example (again, had I been paying attention) or just Bitcoin. obviously you'll say I couldn't have known Bitcoin's value would increase, and that is true, however when one is critical of something it was up to me to understand my own criticism and I failed myself.

now with that said, what else am I blatantly missing out on? I constantly have this feeling that something is staring me in the face and I'm missing it.
