Topic: F U D: Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubts (Read 252 times)

Fear doesn't motivate it just leads to procrastination and zero growth where you'd find yourself saying, I'll do it tomorrow until tomorrow never comes (been a huge victim). Confidently doing whatever you're doing consistently with the right knowledge is appropriate. If you're going to wait for motivation every day, you're not going to get anything done, learn to discipline yourself every day.

The purpose of this thread is to first of all encourage my fellow newbies out there who are finding it hard to adapt to the forum or anything at all. Just keep on learning and writing until you can't keep track anymore. Knowledge is very important, don't let fear drive you away from anything, and when it's time to acquire bitcoins you'll be able to face the risks too, without fear. And with the right knowledge.

Sometimes ago, I read a thread on the forum, can't really remember where but it talked about fear being a motivational push to know, acquire,  and sell Bitcoin. In as much as it sounded motivational at first,  it also felt twisted and wrong cause we all know fear leads to doubts and stagnancy. So, I decided to look into it.

When it comes to Bitcoin, we all know there are risks attached to it. In fact, whatever thing you decide to do, be it good, bad, beneficial, or not, there are risks attached to it and it makes the future of whatever we are doing to be uncertain.  Now the question or the main deal is, do we need to wait for fear of regretting to be our push towards doing certain things?

Now, I have and I'm certain that we've all been in situations where we wanted to do something, we've set goals to solve one problem or the other and we failed to continue along the way. Personally, I think that was fear of uncertainty playing with us.

Yeah, typically there's this meaning of FUD as the classic one that we've seen and experienced throughout the period of time. But it all boils down with his reminder to the newbies about not being feared with what's the market is showing that includes the FUD that can be seen on the news and any other source that's being abused and used by whoever spreads it. Anyway, all of the newbies must be aware of it and don't let their emotions caught them because it's hard to control that force about being impacted by FUD.

Yes, I'm not sure whether the OP misunderstood what FUD usually means (the effect of a flow of negative news usually orchestrated by some actors that leads to panic selling) with the classic paralyzing fear we like most mammals feel when we get surprised by something unexpected.

Although a bit forced, the way he applied it to newbies in the forum is creative. But he shouldn't forget the conventional meaning of FUD.

FUD is one of terms that is commonly used in cryptocurrency.

Terminology.
Crypto Glossary.

In this market, you have to face with FUD daily and its intensity of appearance on media is just more or less than usual intensity. In bear market, you will have more fud than in bull market.

In bear market, you will have more fud and callings like "Bitcoin is dead".

With time, Bitcoin has become stronger and with your own time and experience in this market, you will be less affected by FUD.

I thought that you were talking about the FUD that's being spread in the market which is related to Bitcoin and accumulation. However, this is also a reminder to the newbies that there is nothing to be feared if they're just all about learning and acquiring knowledge through the forum. They're all there and all they need to do is to extract them and not be lazy about it.

The title of the thread doesn’t exactly correspond with the intended purpose as you say. First you are talking FUD in the market, I didn’t think it would turn to a pep talk for newbies. There’s already enough motivation and advice for newbies in Beginners & help, the board has more than enough threads to keep newbies busy. It will be refreshing to read something new and interesting.

This purpose is kinda confusing tbh. You are talking about Bitcoin and how the FUD surrounding it while you are mentioning the forum now to encourage newbie to post relentlessly on the forum which is equivalent to spamming. There’s no connection too between posting here and actual Bitcoin investment.

You can gain knowledge by just reading and not posting at all. Can you make straight your  goal on this thread? I don’t see the relation of FUD on posting in the forum.
